Pelosi: Conyers should resign
By Rebecca Savransky - 11/30/17 11:16 AM EST

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.) should resign amid multipole allegations of sexual misconduct.

House Democrats have been upping the pressure on Conyers to resign from Congress in recent days.

Pelosi has been working with leaders of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) — a group Conyers helped to create decades ago — to convince the veteran Detroit lawmaker to step away from Capitol Hill rather than await the verdict of a House Ethics Committee investigation into his alleged transgressions.

Wow.  Brave woman, this Pelosi.

He's announced he'll not run for another term.

Conyers will not seek re-election in 2018
NY Post, Nov 29, 2017

Embattled Congressman John Conyers, accused of sexual harassment by former staffers, will not seek re-election next year, according to a broadcast report on Wednesday.

The longest serving member of Congress plans to formally announce in January that he won’t be on the ballot in 2018, sources close to the situation told WDIV in Detroit.

Conyers has been in Congress since 1964.  Fifty-thee years.

I wonder if the electorate is ready to seriously discuss TERM LIMITS?

LOL. Nancy looking like a jack ass. Defend the hell out of him one week and then throw him overboard the next. Funny how this coincides with Lauer getting the boot. She might finally see the writing on the wall and that this game is over.

The electorate?  Oh, yeah.

Congress?  Not in our lifetime. 

53 years in one job.  Can anyone else say that?  Well, maybe, if the job involved no work, had a lot of benefits and provided a grazing ground for harassing women.
