There ain’t no rules here
“There ain’t no rules here, we’re trying to accomplish something. . . . All this talk about rules . . . When the deal goes down . . . we make ’em up as we go along.”
– Rep. Alcee Hastings (D – Fla.)
Hastings formerly served as a federal judge before becoming one of six federal judges ever to be impeached in U.S. history (for perjury and corruption). Fittingly, he was elected as a Democrat to the House of Representatives only three years after his impeachment in the Senate.
