Remember the K Street Project?

When the Republicans took the majority, they attempted to infiltrate fascist insiders into our government. Trade associations were shaken down in exchange for favors. Fact is, Tom DeLay placed his cronies in government in the largest scandal in this country’s history. DeLay gave American taxpayer dollars to family members, oversaw horrible human rights scandals in the Mariana islands, used public funds to purchase Congress members for sale, and hobnobbed with the likes of Duke Cunningham and Katherine Harris. Pork rolled like at no other time in our country’s history. Read Broken Branch by Norm Ornstein for the whole story.
