Swamp Protects Itself

Congress has secretly made rules and laws simply to protect itself, and maintain its members in power for DECADES, in spite of bad conduct. One of those things was the “slush fund” Congress quietly set up, using taxpayer money, to pay off women who told of members’ sexual misconduct and keep them quiet. They have schemed and scammed to make sure most members win election after election while the fiction of opposition to them is maintained, so they can have a lifetime job in Congress. One member in particular sent out a press release from his hospital bed that he was going to run (again) for re-election, in spite of the fact his hospital stay was life-threatening and he was on his last legs of life. Another member was so “feeble minded” his staff members had to remind him where the Congress chamber was while they “trundled him” to and fro almost with a hand-truck to “perform his duties.” Members rarely made serious accusations against other members, regardless of party so the other party wouldn’t make them against them. Like the “mutual assured destruction” in the nuclear arms race. Most members have been in office for forty to 50 years, or more, the one exception was the one AOC displaced when she ran. How she managed that, considering all the schemes and scams to ensure continuation in office for Congress members is in question. Maybe that system failed, or she paid someone off. Or both. Congress is truly a “swamp,” and Trump has his work cut out for him to “drain it.” One of the biggest problems in Congress is the LACK of “term limits” to keep members from remaining way beyond their ability to do their jobs.
