Summary

Democrat Katie Hill RESIGNS Amid Growing Scandal, So Ilhan Omar Should Resign Next Right? Amid an expanding scandal involving Democratic Rep Katie Hill she has announced her resignation from congress. Hill was accused of having an affair with staffers in violation of House ethics rules and was placed under investigation.Following her announcement many Democrats, far left, and leftists praised her decision as it was "the right thing to do." But why is this right and not right for Ilhan Omar?Ilhan Omar has made many shocking comments, paid a fine for a campaign finance violation, and is currently being accused of another all while it is reported she is having an affair with a contractor for her campaign, Tim Mynett.Why does Katie Hill stand out and why ignore Omar's repeated ethics complaints against her?it seems democrats and the left want to act like Katie Hill doing the right thing is about integrity when it is admittedly about fear of more leaks coming about. Democrats claim that republicans, the GOP, conservatives would never resign amid wrong doing but that's not true. Just last month a republican resigned amid charges.In the end it seems like political posturing and I don't expect Omar or anyone else to resign over political mudslinging.
