Sexual Harassment Meets Corruption: Most Senior House Member (D) Exposed
2017-11-21

#5  Monica Conyers served 3yrs+ for corruption in the Federal lockup. These people are not public servants--they are leeches who feed off the rest of us.

There are risks to criticizing/exposing these criminals. Dinesh D'Souza ended up in prison for a ginned-up charge. The time seems to be ripe for taking them down. They are tearing the country down; not building it up.

#3  The takeaway from this article is that the number of sexual harassment settlements is much, much higher than reported:

It took several months of navigating the labyrinthine Office of Compliance (OOC) for the woman to receive a grand total of $27,111.75 over a three-month period by setting her up as a temporary employee who didn’t have to show up to work. That kept the settlement within Conyers’ office budget rather than the normal fund used to settle workplace complaints from Congressional staffers.

I.e. If the settlement is paid out of the legislator's office budget, it doesn't count towards the sexual harassment statistics.
