Is Gallegos going to get dragged into this?

And it's been an open secret this whole time. The democrats pulled the plug to get a Democrat in as governor. This is in no way about morals or crimes or protecting women.
NO ONE is alleging the democrats do ANYTHING for the right reason. However, don't tilt too far to the other end: simply because there may be a machine behind all this doesn't mean it (and a lot more) isn't true.
Huh? I am positive it's true and worse. I am also positive no one on the left cares about any of those things. This is 100% political, not about doing the right thing.
Tara Reade is still on a political island and Joe Biden is soiling himself as a free man.

Did Eric use the Congressional slush fund to pay off any staffers over the years? It certainly wouldn't surprise me if we the taxpayers have been paying for his victims to keep quiet.

Wouldn't bother me. He and Kelly are our senators which is basically like being unrepresented in the senate

Of course, Hobbs gets to name a replacement if he goes down. Figures.

Wanna bet Hobbs would pull a Blagoevich and sell it to the highest bidder? Or just appoint a cartel stooge?

Hobbs appointing herself Senator would be the most amazing thing ever.
Throw the primary winner aside because he can't walk and talk at the same time and "appoint" a new presidential candidate who never got a single vote? Check.
Kick out a dude from a primary because there are too many from the same party and you can't win the election? Check.
Name yourself Senator instead of running for the office? Check.
What's next on the bingo card?

Stephen Miller could HARDLY keep it together when Jesse Watters asked if President Trump had been following the Swalwell saga.

Then Miller dropped what he said is the single most important part of the entire story and it leaves the Democrat Party completely exposed.
MILLER: "The most important part about this story, and look, Swalwell is a scumbag, he is a terrible person, the worst of the worst, the lowest of the low, the most dishonest of the most dishonest…"
"But the real story here is how the Democrat party controls its members through blackmail."
"It's got a blackmail file on all of its politicians and it uses them to leverage and control them until it's time to release it."
"That is how sick and twisted the Democrat party is."
"That's the next thread we have to pull out here."

Actually nobody has clean hands here. Everybody knew what Matt Gaetz was up to, now the blind eye turned towards Swalwell, and Tony Gonzalez finally gone too. Congress knowing what their colleagues are up to and doing nothing about it is a bipartisan problem.

I can agree with that. It's just tiresome for most Democrats to ignore any and everything detrimental to their side unless it makes them look better. Like clockwork for most of them.

I don't think that this is a left versus right issue and instead a powerful versus everyone else issue.

There has long been a belief that the first weeks of newly elected congress critters involves parties and meetings that are all about getting the newbies in compromised spots. Drugs, drunkenness, sex, and being videoed with the wrong people---all tools that are used to keep you in line, but also to keep you owned.

I'm all for getting rid of corruption regardless of party, but when it comes to the media, when they target a republican, my default position is that they are mischaracterizing, misinforming, or outright lying. When they target a democrat, the truth is probably ten times worse than whatever they are saying. That's just what they do.
So yeah, I'll give the republican the benefit of the doubt for at least a little while. I'm not going to defend a republican because he's team red, i just want to be sure I'm not being lied to.
