Looks like they left out the most corrupt ones. How surprising.

It talks about the "corruption" of Waters' daughter, who runs a progressive mailing house. No clear indication of how the daughter benefits, other than being the child of a famous person. Similarly, it makes some snarky statements about her husband because he works for a bond underwriting firm that does business with the government (NOTE: All bond underwriting firms do business with the government). In this case, it was a school board bond sale in which Mr. Waters was involved. Again, no clear connection of how this constitutes corruption.
This is utter bullcrap. Nothing in their so-called indictment has any bearing upon her duties in congress or the business of the federal government.

They are the two worst Senators in the country.

5. I don't trust them at all. |
|
Two of their executives, Melanie Sloan and Naomi Seligman, have a background working on legislation to restrict firearms rights. I don't trust these people one bit.
