For years, Democrats have waved the flag of ethics reform while turning a blind eye to the very corruption they claim to despise \u2014 until now. A new ethics report has dropped a bombshell on Sheila Cherfilus?McCormick, revealing substantial evidence of fraud, illegal campaign coordination, and blatant misuse of office resources. The findings are damning, and the only appropriate response from Congress should be one word: expulsion.<\/p>\n
Republican Representative Greg Steube (FL-17) pointed to a resolution he filed in November concerning what he referred to as \u201cserious financial crimes,\u201d indicating his intention to reintroduce it next week.<\/p>\n
Cherfilus-McCormick was indicted by a grand jury in November for allegedly misappropriating $5 million in FEMA funds during the COVID-19 pandemic and using that money to support her campaign. She has claimed that the investigation is politically driven, aimed at diverting attention from the Epstein files.<\/p>\n
Moreover, she accused the Department of Justice of targeting \u201cblack and brown people.\u201d Because, of course she did.<\/p>\n
However, the House Ethics Committee uncovered \u201csubstantial\u201d evidence that she breached various laws, regulations, and standards of conduct expected of a member of Congress.<\/p>\n
