HIT HIM WHERE IT HURTS: Rep. Frank Wolf to withhold funds from lawless Eric Holder.
Wolf has sought dozens of reports required from the DOJ under the FY 2013 Omnibus Act.... The law required Holder to provide Congress and Wolf’s committee 66 separate reports about DOJ activity.Wolf is retiring at the end of this current session. I will be sure to ask his likely successor, Barbara Comstock, if she will continue to support his aggressive stance.
...
“Today, I am announcing a new policy that these overdue reports will no longer be tolerated by the committee. When our FY 2015 bill is marked up this spring, I intend to withhold $1 million for every overdue report from the FY 2013 and FY 2014 bills.

It's actually bipartisan; I read somewhere that the Republican senators also have a 'pay gap', though not as bad.
The reality is that after controlling for experience and hours worked, there is no pay gap.

SHOCKER: Democrat incumbents want White House to abuse regulatory power to boost their re-election chances.

THE WORLD BANK’S plan to end poverty.
It sounds innocous enough, until the 'aid' word appears in the 5th of 7 paragraphs. Properly interpreted, that means higher taxes to significantly lower living standards of 'the rich' (and by world standards the U.S. middle class is rich) to insignificantly raise the living standards of 'the poor' whilst skimming enough cumshaw off the top to recompense theruling class 'public servants' for their travails as they try to control minister the poor.
