A thread of Republican dirtbag history to enlighten those who don't know-
Richard Nixon's administration included:
H.W. Bush- who became director of the CIA for one year in 1976
He later became VP and POTUS
Invaded Panama and started the Gulf War

Dick Cheney
Donald Rumsfeld
Dick Cheney was Nixon's chief of staff, WY Rep. in House of Representatives 1978-1989 when he became HW Bush's Sec. of Def. during the invasion of Panama and Gulf War. He was on the board of Halliburton from 1995-2000 and went on to be VP for GW Bush leading the war on Iraq.
Donald Rumsfeld was a special advisor to President Nixon and became Pres. Ford's chief of staff when Dick Cheney became Sec. of Defense.
When Ford lost he became CEO of Searle pharma and later 1997-2001 Gilead pharma. He was then Sec. of Defense of GW Bush.
It was Rumsfeld's claims of a chemical weapons cache that led to another war, which was headed by his friend and the VP Dick Cheney. He was also a fan of torture and partially responsible for the hiring of mercenaries from Blackwater.
Privatizing prisons started in 1980 and was largely Republican policy. Blackwater didn't just train mercenaries, they also train prison guards and other law enforcement personnel. They do not train deescalation.
John Ashcroft, the former AG for GW Bush is now on the board...
or Academi (formerly Blackwater) since 2011.

William Barr was employed by the CIA from 1973-1977 which includes the single year HW Bush was director.
William Barr was part of the DoJ during HW Bush's administration leading the Office of Legal Council which signed off...
on the invasion of Panama. He was instrumental in obtaining six pardons from HW Bush for officials involved in the Iran-Contra Affair which Reagan/Bush administration swapped drugs for guns.

He worked for several telecommunications companies from 1994-2008 becoming very wealthy
achieving his primary objective during his executive role (1994-2008) was to deregulate telecomm by messing with FCC rules. It worked. his efforts coincided with new wiretapping laws passed by Republicans like the Patriot Act.
Let's not forget about the incredible Dan Quayle who can't spell potato. The former Senator from Indiana who became VP for HW Bush during the Iran-Contra scandals and invasion of Panama. His private equity firm owns the company that made the Bushmaster AR 15.
Newt Gingrich was the original master of obstruction from the House. He voted against the Civil Rights restoration Act in 1987 to uphold Reagan's veto. He was Speaker 1995-1999. He married three times, cheating on his 2nd wife while she had cancer. The House ethics committee...
forced him to resign after 84 ethics charges and recklessly breaking House rules.
The Dennis Hastert became Speaker. He was Speaker from 1999-2007. He was indicted and imprisoned for sexually abusing boys for YEARS.
Retiring Senator Lamar Alexander picked a pedophile chief of staff Ryan Loskarn killed himself after being indicted for possessing and distributing child porn.
He was formerly Communications director for Senator Marsha Blackburn.
Let's not forget about former Representative Mark Foley who sent pornographic messages to male teenage congressional pages. His replacement, Tim Mahoney, hired his mistress on his staff and then fired her.
The of course there's former Senator Larry Craig who was arrested for trying to get sex in an airport bathroom.
So, if we're going to talk about #corruption and a complete absence of #ethics Republicans are number one. You lost because you all really are THE WORST.
Breaking THE most laws, committing THE maximum number of crimes, having THE most extra-martial affairs,
and hiring THE biggest perverts.

The epidemic of kiddie fiddlers in your party SHOULD concern you. I know it doesn't because you just pass them around for a promotion.

Keep on lying and I will post another history lesson.
