The entire theater on the Hill is so badly done no one watches anymore. The IG Report, mainly leftists involved, is a sham IMHO. No one will be sent to jail. All the libs watching the MSMs will be told "see, nothing to see here". And the divide will continue to grow.

Show me how to get away from labels while talking about what happens in the swamp. :)
I normally abhor labels but have learned to live with them. I was a SSgt (label) in the Marine Corps (label) with fiscal conservative leanings (label) who has a white skintone (label) and am male (label). - please take this in a light hearted manner! :)

It doesn't have to continue. I can remember when Ted Kennedy and Bob Dole could disagree vehemently on the Senate floor, then go play racquetball or have a drink and work out a compromise. And I so miss those days! Unfortunately, both sides have been hijacked by extremists who abhor the word "compromise"--and we are the ones the less served for it. I'm going to read the entire report, but I don't believe it has a "leaning." Both sides have claimed victory, not just one side. And I don't believe it's purpose was ever to decide if anyone should go to jail. As with all IG reports, it's not a decision document. It's supposed to find out where the management, leadership and process flaws are so the organization can improve.

Thanks Capt Gregory Prickett - I see a bit of what you are saying. Still trying to figure out how to talk about a highly charged subject (politics) in a neutral way. Mr Clinton, 1st term, was the last Dem I voted for at the national level. I've been Independent since that term. Every POTUS and, more importantly, their administration, Senate and SCOTUS has been a BIG disappointment since I became aware of politics in the early 70s.
Yes, every administration does some good things. At the same time, every administration sets something back as well. And no administration has ever really, truly handled the budget. But what really gets my goat is the lack of prosecution for clear violations of Law. But, then again, the political system has been taken over by lawyers.

Capt Gregory Prickett - Trump was the first "Republican" I have voted for since I left the Democratic party near the end of Bill Clinton's tour. I register in one or the other party for the Primaries (Independents are not allowed to vote in those) but otherwise, I am an Independent.
The reason I voted for Trump is three-fold:
1) The promise of SCOTUS nominations
2) Draining the swamp
3) He was **NOT** a professional politician
2020 I have similar reasons to stick with Trump. But, again, it will depend on how well (badly) the game of politics is played out before the vote happens.

IG reports are always a tough read and you often need to read between the lines. Haven't read yet, but suspect that is especially true with this one. Thanks for the link to the report.
