The Governor of Texas is “Spot On” in his pursuit of legislative Quorum. I’ve been saying it for years, how The Democrats have no reservation about charging Republicans with frivolous crimes.
Republicans need to “Grow a Pair”. Those that have been charged then have to seek counsel, and appearances to argue their innocence. It’s time for Republican representatives of all areas of public service to apply the exact same level of legal standards in the pursuit of not only transparency, but justice, if crimes have been perpetrated on the public that those who are supposed to be representatives of.
The Bannon, Navarro, Flynn examples are plenty of inspiration to charge these scofflaws and let them, like anyone else in America, have their day in court. This pussy footing around for the sake of “political optics” is just plain self destructive to The Republican Party.
In the real world, all that is needed is “Reasonable Suspicion” for charges to be brought against the suspect. Why is this enforcement tool not applied to anyone in Congress, even in the face of exculpatory evidence? Every red blooded American has to follow this standard of accusation and the process in their defense from the accusation, from the parking ticket, speeding ticket, accusations of domestic violence, guilt or innocence is determined in court. There should be no exception.
These Democrats that left Texas to “Prove Their Point” are derelict in their duties, and probably can be charged with a whole host of other crimes. The Point Is – Charge Them! Let their attorneys and the courts sort it out.
