The DC police last week sought to arrest a sitting member of Congress, a Florida Republican, for physically assaulting a woman in DC. But the US attorney’s office didn’t sign off on it. www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/f...

But he is so hot

Abusers are so amazingly good at hiding their nefarious abuse. I lived with one. I get it. He needs to be taken down.

This is just one more story about a married Republican congressman assaulting his girlfriend. #TraditionalValues

I saw reporting on this 3 different police reports. I agree, in any other universe this would be the top story. But here in our dumpster fire of a universe, it's not even blip a on the radar. Get someone to ask Trump directly or ask the White House, you know the cover up.

And don't bother getting Mike Johnson on the record, no one cares what he thinks

You're never going to guess what the N in NBC stands for...

That's a local outlet...

Right, the local affiliate station of NBC, which also ran a story on their main news website and have been running the story through other affiliate stations, like channel 4 in LA for instance

A Congressman not only abusing someone in DC but also ordering the woman he just physically abused to lie to the police about the abuse is something a normal House Ethics Committee would have hearings on
