What about the $17 million dollar secret “slush fund” Congress used to make hush money payments to sexual victims?

Thanks to the relentless political targeting of President Trump, there’s been a spotlight on the use of “hush money” and secret funds to sweep indiscretions under the rug in politics. This shouldn’t come as a shock to many, given the nature of fame and power, but where do we draw the line? When is it acceptable for politicians to dip into taxpayer-funded slush funds to settle their sexual indiscretions privately, and without fanfare, and when is it deemed unacceptable for a private political candidate to do the same with personal funds? Here’s the thing that’s got everyone scratching their heads: Trump’s stuck in this political circus over “hush money,” where they’re all too eager to drag him through the mud over what amounts to a flimsy misdemeanor at best.

Indeed, Office of Congressional Compliance (OOC) which was set up to ensure compliance with the ludicrously named 1995 Congressional Accountability Act, controls a whole treasure chest of disputes involving congressional officials—not just congressional officials, in fact. You’ll be pleased to know that the Capitol Police, the Congressional Budget Office, and many other legislative groups get to wet their beaks in this slush fund as well. Recent reports have indicated that over 17 million dollars has been used from this fund to take care of various “hush” projects on behalf of members of congress and other agencies.

What we’re witnessing in the United States is a prime example of peak corruption in action. Federal employees can get away with sexual assault left and right, and when they’re caught, the slush fund jumps into action to hush it up, no questions asked. And instead of these scumbags facing the music, it’s President Trump who’s under the microscope and being dragged through a sham political trial.
We should be used to this shameless “two-tier” injustice system by now.
Commentary:
It saddens me to say it, but I suspect there are millions of historically illiterate Americans, more than willing to toss our constitutional republic on the ash heap of history to "get" a single individual, because their hate transcends everything, or because they're naive enough to think being on the "right team" immunizes them from being subjected to the same capriciousness they champion. And because they are historically illiterate, they have no idea what happens to useful idiots when they're no longer useful, or when the demands for ideological purity become impossible to meet.
Remember that Democrat Bill Clinton paid Paula Jones $850,000 in hush money.
Unfortunately, the actions of Democrats are simi;ar to those of the Palestinians who use their own children as human shields in the conflict against Israel. They hate Israel far more transcendes the love their own children, and no cost is ever considered too great to satiate their lust of hate and envy.
