House Ethics Committee Resumes Case Against Maxine Waters

California Representative Maxine Waters has technically been under investigation for numerous ethical problems for the past three years. However, because Waters has done her damnedest during those three years to exploit as many legal technicalities as possible to try to get the investigation halted, it has dragged on endlessly. Today, yet another of her excuses ran out of mileage.

The House Ethics Committee put its case against California Congresswoman Maxine Waters back on track Wednesday after finding that her due process rights had not been violated.

In the latest twist in an investigation that has gone on for three years, the committee acknowledged that its staff’s communications with only the Republican committee members during its investigation of Waters, a Democrat from Los Angeles, had “raised concerns about the appearance of staff partisanship.“ It also found that a committee staff member made ”inappropriate” remarks during the investigation.
