    Personal use of taxpayer money should be automatic ground to be fired, step down, kicked out, relieved of duty or what ever you want to call it.

    Nevada Democratic rep faces calls to resign over sexual harassment claim

    The head of the House Democrats' campaign committee called on first-term Rep. Ruben Kihuan of Nevada to step down Friday over a report that Kihuan sexually harassed his campaign's finance director.

    BuzzFeed News reported that Kihuen is alleged to have repeatedly made sexual advances toward the aide during his successful 2016 congressional campaign.

    Rep. Ben Ray Lujan of New Mexico, chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, said House members and candidates should be held to the highest standard, and anyone guilty of sexual harassment or assault should not hold elected office. He added in a statement Friday, "Congressman Kihuen should resign."

    And because Michigan hasn't had enough Conyers in office, (almost 53 years) his son IMMEDIATELY gets endorsed. But hold on...his nephew is running too!

    Nepotism LIVES!

    Yup, Conyers is the only person that needs to be removed from office. I am sure you missed all the greatest hiring by president Trump since he have been in office.

    Al Franken will make an announcement tomorrow, I saw on TV. Looks likely to me that he's next one forced out. A bunch of Democratic senators are telling him to resign. I really think these things should go to proceedings for expulsion instead of applying peer pressure to resign.

    Looks like the immoral Democrats are cleaning their house while the God fearing GOP will elect Moore to the senate.

    Conyers resigning was the right thing but I think that making it only about the sexual allegations against him might be the wrong reason. Certainly those are very serious but it sounds like he wasn't mentally capable of representing his constituents.
