Nebraska representative Jeff Fortenberry announced his resignation from Congress effective the 31st of March. This follows his conviction by a California jury of breaking campaign laws of lying about donations from foreign sources at two interviews.
People make mistakes and people are corrupt. The important take away is that this man has accepted the judgement of the court and is leaving his elected position. He is facing anywhere from zero time to 15 years. He could stand and fight and hope for the best, but he is putting the needs of his constituents first.
Of course, those small minded, morally bereft people will cheer without realizing that Fortenberry has set the standard by which Pelosi, Schiff, Swalwell, and others should be judged. Remember, he was convicted of lying about the donations, not taking the donations. Imagine the penalty for having Chinese spies on your staff, in your car, or in your bed. We know that the Clintons took foreign money and lied about it. Obama changed the algorithm on campaign donations, took foreign money, and lied about it. Why would Biden be any different. When the impeachment proceedings start next year, this will be just one more brick in the wall in the cell to handle the Biden criminal family.
