Call your shot.

When do we start to see Congress members start to resign over individual financial improprieties, "health related issues", involvement in corruption (i.e - J6), and/or their utter lack of oversight of taxpayer money?


I am going with March 15 for first resignation.


Bonus points if you pick the first from each party correct.


(R) McConnell is the obvious choice here.

(D) Raskin - So much smoke around this guy.

Once they resign they lose a lot of leverage and power, it actually makes them look guilty to an extent.

Just keep shining sunlight.

Only way any of them are leaving is via death, voted out, or handcuffs. They're not going out on their own free will.

A bunch of them probably using taxpayer money of some sort to pay a PR group to write up their response to all this.

They don't believe anything will ever happen to them and this will all go away, they are untouchables because like the Epstein Files, Diddy, Clinton Foundation, Fast and Furious, etc. nothing every happens. I pray I'm wrong but have a hard time believing we will see anyone cuffed or serve time.

First.....as a response to all the Debbie Downers. It's a Representative Republic. You have more power than you realize. Sack up and participate in the direction of your country.

As the Declaration of Independence states.... "But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security." (it doesn't have to be violent)

Secondly, Elon has been on the job for a couple of weeks and found 100s of billions in "questionable" expenses. Social media is already starting to see angry citizens beginning to talk about a tax revolt. Do you think he's not going to find more over the next few weeks when they open the books into DOD, HUD, Medicare, etc?

Resigning would require a certain degree of integrity, humility, and ability to feel shame.

So I'm going with none of them.

They will not resign, even if they're on hospice care or under indictment.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Elon and his crew need to start naming names when they find the fraud, and posting it publicly without any warning.

As stated elsewhere they aren't resigning. The sooner people realize that the majority of what you see on tv is simply for show, the sooner you will realize they hope to keep the public distracted by creating infighting amongst Americans.

This. See Biden. See Pelosi. see McConnell. See Schiff. See Chinese Spy Banger. See anyone who paid out of the congressional slush fund.

Once these people get power and money, they will have to be dead to relinquish it.

If Chucky ever left, you can bet that socialist dummy A.O.C. will attempt to slither into that seat.

Would the citizens of NY vote for her? Why yes, yes they would.

Cali did it for that pencil neck, booger, and paste eating geek Adam Schiff.

For all of the cynics in the thread. This time it's different....the people are pissed and want their pound of flesh.








In this clip....you can watch a 76yr old man having a stroke during his speech on the floor of the House of Representatives.




Resignations coming.....it's just a matter of time.

BTW - Annie is the only one on the thread that has an excuse for lacking balls.

What's the excuse for the rest of you.....Learned helplessness? Stuck in the matrix? Low T? Afraid to speak up? Cognitive Dissonance? Nihilism got your tongue? Got better things to do?

Menendez didn't, although I will say he's one of the few to ever get convicted of a major crime while still in office (or just resigned).

Let's give this one the old 48 hour rule.

IF the reporting is accurate, we are going to need 535 new representatives of We the People.

In case you missed it the other day, the Treasury paid everything they were told to. They rejected nothing, even if they knew it was in error or fraudulent.

So, yes. This is what happened.
