The Office of Government Ethics website has been down for several hours on Thursday after it reported a surge in contacts from members of the public. The office tweeted that the website, phone system and email system are receiving an extraordinary volume of contacts from citizens about recent events.
While the office didnt offer a reason for the surge in contact from the public, its high-volume web traffic comes after a left-leaning watchdog group filed a complaint to the ethics office asking the government to investigate comments from senior White House aide Kellyanne Conway promoting Ivanka Trumps designer line.

It's endless, folks. And please understand that these daily outrages are planned.
To a milder extent, Bush 43 did the same things. "Heckuva job, Brownie!" While that stuff was going on, Cheney and his cronies were stealing billions in Iraq.

Bumbling idiots fumbling in the dark for light switches. It's not just a metaphor.

(82,849 posts)These massive responses to Trump administration fuck-ups has been noticed in the White House. They're not taking it seriously yet, but that's their problem, not ours.

(28,339 posts)Okay you should call (202) 482-9300 and let them know what a disgrace Conway is and that you KNOW it is a violation of federal law for her to peddle Ivanka Trumps garbage in her official duties the way she did.
For Pete's sake, it's illegal for federal employees to peddle their kids Girl Scout Cookies on the job. THIS WOMAN pushed a whole crappy clothing line of her boss's kid with the full authority of the office of the presidency.
