In a sane world none of those people would make it through the Senate's confirmation process. Spineless Democrats will almost certainly let it happen though.

What's anybody going to do about it?

So far they have chosen to angrily tweet about it. Spinless fools.

from the article: The House Ethics Committee was in the final stages of its investigation into Gaetz over allegations of sexual misconduct and illicit drug use when Trump announced he picked him to lead the Justice Department, according to three sources familiar with the investigation.

Those sources told ABC News the committee was preparing to meet this week to deliberate over whether to release a final report on the matter.

House Speaker Mike Johnson announced later Wednesday that Gaetz offered his resignation from Congress effective immediately. With his resignation, the House Ethics Committee no longer has the jurisdiction to continue its investigation into him.

This will almost certainly be the funniest thing I hear about all day.

He did it because leaving stops the sex trafficking investigation of him. An investigation launched by his own party by the way.

Gaetz's resignation also ends the House Ethics Committee investigation into his alleged misconduct, including accusations of sex trafficking.

The house ethics committee will drop its investigation as soon as the senate confirms him and he gives up his seat.

We're so f'ed.

More: Last summer, Kristen and Eric Rezabek were feeling pinched. Eric was considering taking on a four-hour commute for higher paying jobs, while Kristen, who works two jobs, planned to add a full day to her already full-time work schedule to help cover their family's expenses.

Then, their employer presented a unique offer: an extra paid day off every week, to use however they chose.

"This was definitely a solution to value our time better, which gives us more options," Eric said.

The couple, who live with their two children on San Juan Island in Washington state, both work for San Juan County, made up of a small network of islands north of Seattle. Their union had been negotiating raises for its employees, but the county was strapped for cash and couldn't afford to boost salaries beyond a small cost of living increase.

Instead, they agreed upon a 32-hour workweek, in which employees retain their full-time positions with benefits but can enjoy reduced hours and schedule flexibility.

"There are lots of methods to provide employee benefits," County Manager Jessica Hudson said. "As long as you're open to different solutions, you might find a different way of doing things that allows you to keep wonderful talented employees, even if it's not a direct pay raise."

The county has now completed its first full year of the new schedule and released a report on its findings Tuesday evening. San Juan County touted a host of positive outcomes " from recruiting to retention to employee happiness " and a cost savings of more than $975,000 compared to what the county would have paid if it met the union's pay increase demands.

Is there an echo in here?

Why would you think the Trump camp cares about qualifications?

The more powerful republicans he gets to leave elected office so he can use and later discard them from his cabinet the better.

Soccer fans got into a fight? This is somehow new?

If you hook an air fryer up to the internet you deserve to be spied on.

Many, hopefully none, of these people that are being suggested for various rolls in the cabinet have much chance of being confirmed by the senate.

Same thing happened last election and then, at the time, Democrat and massive "see you next Tuesday" Tricia Cotham changed her party affiliation and screwed over everyone that voted for her. Then they gerrymandered her a safe new district and she won again last night.

Cable companies worry rule will make it hard to talk customers out of canceling.

That's the point of the rule.

Who pays for cable these days anyway?

Well maybe not new... But I just heard it today.

Exactly. Nothing will be done about it.

The sin here is not that Kamala Harris had the good sense to reply, "No thank you, I'm previously engaged." The real scandal is that the good Catholic cardinal of the great city of New York would not have the courage to say, this year, that the current Republican candidate is a walking example of so much the Catholic Church finds repugnant in today's politics that he would suspend the normal invitations.

The real controversy is that an event that touts its history of raising funds for society's most needy is going to host someone who is one of the culture's greatest threats to that kind of caring. The real outrage is that Trump, given the public nature and extent of his repulsive record, should be invited to a fundraiser for an organization, Catholic Charities, that has long worked in the trenches to save and transform lives on society's farthest margins. It is tragic that the guest of honor this year will be someone whose personal example and policy wishes are in a collision course with the principles of Catholic social teaching.

We are triply disappointed, Cardinal Dolan, that in the name of the church and its witness to the wider culture, you did not suspend the norm this year and invite someone worthy of the event's cause. We are disappointed you didn't have the courage to stand up to Trump, a looming threat to the democratic ideals that allow the church to host such a high-profile public gathering.

The Catholic church is a thoroughly corrupt and predatory organization. The world would be better off without it.

India is currently under fascist rule. They don't care about things like evidence and laws.

However, the fact is casualties (especially women and children) may be 1/2 to 1/4 of what is reported.

That's a loaded "may." Care to back that '1/2 to 1/4' up with a non-Israeli source?

I agree the Gaza Health Ministry numbers likely aren't exact but they do have all those dead bodies to count and get a fairly accurate number. The ones still identifiable as human beings after the Israeli bombs do their work at least.

If the X allegations are true

Thanks for being the perfect example of the idiots this article is describing.
