For 17 Million Dollars the public deserves to know the names of those politicians who we paid for to cover up their indiscretions.

Tom Massie is the single most honest politician presently. I don’t ALWAYS agree with him, but I know for a fact that he always says what he believes, he loves this country with all of his heart and he will always do what’s in the best interest of the nation. I think he’ll be running for Senate when Mitch McConnell retires from his senate seat in Kentucky. Then it would be Rand Paul and Tom Massie as the Kentucky Senators, what a one two punch they would be! Gosh I wish every state would elect men and women with Maddie’s intellect, integrity and honesty. We could actually have a chance to save this country if we were to drain the swamp with our votes. It’s truly on WE THE PEOPLE to drain the swamp. We need to organize a third party pretty desperately so that we can go after uniparty republicrats from both of the major parties that have sold us up the river and who whore themselves out to every donor and lobbyist who slips them a tenner.

AND let's not forget, the statute of limitations is not an impediment to being indicted, changed, AND convicted of the crime. Hope the GAO has an accounting of who has used the slush fund. I also hope a suitable non_DumboCrap venue is found to try and convict Clinton - you know, a trial by his hating peers and a judge that contributes to the Republican cause, who will rule against every objection raised by Slick Willie's defense lawyers and sustain every one of the Prosecution's. The same Judge to send the case to deliberation to the jury by stating that they do NOT need a unanimous verdict on any count, just consensus that Clinton was guilty of something, otherwise he wouldn't have been in court, right? I can tell you after all the damage that philandering jagoff did (including being a draft dodger himself), it's time he was called on it. Think I'm lying? edition.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/1996/candidates/democrat/clinton/skeletons/draft.shtml Clinton's Draft Deferrment In the autumn of 1969, Clinton entered the draft but received a high number (311) and was never called to serve -- however, Clinton made every effort to avoid the draft prior to entering it. First, Bill Clinton received education deferments while at Georgetown and Oxford (where he helped organize demonstrations against the war). Second, Clinton attempted to avoid the draft for four years by enrolling, but never joining, the Army Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC). Clinton had enrolled in the ROTC hoping to avoid military service for four years, but, wanting a future in politics, had a change of heart and entered the draft. In December 1969, safe from the draft with his high lottery number, Clinton changed his mind about joining the ROTC program and wrote a letter to the director of the ROTC program thanking him "for saving me from the draft" and regretted misleading him by not revealing the extent of his opposition to the war. The letter was leaked by the Pentagon to ABC news early in the 1992 fueled criticism of candidate Clinton's character. Later in the 1992 campaign, it became known that Clinton's uncle had attempted to get Bill Clinton a Navy Reserve assignment during the Vietnam war. Clinton said he didn't know anything about it to the press on September 3, 1992 but a day later admitted that a former draft board member had informed him of his uncles' attempt several months before.

Well, considering they literally had to change the definition of the crime to create a guilty verdict, not just most but all of them would be guilty.

For what buying a house in New York and living in it to run for office?!.
Brilliant questioning by Massie.
zero tax dollars should ever be used to defend a sitting member against allegations. If they are found truly innocent, then they can submit for legal reimbursement. If it is settled, if they are found guilty, the individual elected should pay the cost. Period.
Massie SHOULD file for the taxpayer funds being used for Congress sex pay outs to be investigated!!! WTH
Thomas Massie is one of my favorites after hearing him on tucker I love that guy! Smart dude built his own house with trees he cut down! Seems like one honest guy!
Release them all. Thats the American people’s taxes they should know who they are paying off.
