Ryan Doesn’t Want to Name Congressmen Who Benefited from Tax-Funded Sex Harassment Payoffs

(CNSNews.com) - House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) does not support naming the congressmen who used taxpayer funds to settle sexual harassment claims in the past.

At a press conference of House GOP leaders, CNSNews.com asked Ryan: “Do you support revealing the names of members of Congress who used taxpayer funds to settle sexual harassment claims in the past?”

Boo, Speaker Ryan!

I'm sure there are Congressmen on both sides of the aisle who benefited.  Despicable deplorables!

Why not?  In the interest of total transparency, the names should be revealed so that taxpayers can see whose debauchery they've been funding.  Or...is total transparency only a 'good thing' if/when it involves anything Trump has ever said, done or thought of?   :shrug:

The SOB should have no say so.

This is not his money that was paid out, it was ours.

Occam's razor: the simplest solution is usually the right one.

Ergo, he probably paid hush money for his own improprieties.

That was my thought as well.  Ryan would probably have some 'splainin' to do.
