Republican Congressman Duncan Hunter (CA) indicted

You don't expect him to use credit cards or debits that his wife would see, do you?
 
And this is nothing compared to the corruption festering in the WH, most likely.
 
This is 1 of the best DC scandals in recent memory - sex with interns and lobbyists, gross misuse of campaign funds, throws his wife under the bus, then she agrees to testify against him. John Oliver did a nice bit on him the other night.
 
Rep. Duncan Hunter to abandon ‘not guilty’ plea in campaign finance scandal

The reversal comes nearly six months after Hunter’s wife and former campaign treasurer, Margaret Hunter, admitted to her role in a widespread scheme that saw the couple allegedly spend more than $200,000 in campaign donations on family expenses like vacations, gas, groceries, school lunches and oral surgery. Such spending is prohibited to prevent undue influence by contributors.

“It’s important not to have a public trial for three reasons, and those three reasons are my kids,” Hunter told KUSI in an interview aired just minutes after the court notice.

The station said on Twitter that Hunter would plead to one count of illegal use of campaign funds.
 
But being a felon won't change the GOP wanting him in the House.
