They threw out Santos before he went to trial. The House often votes them out or forces you into retirement. The Senate is different but when you publically fuck up you are SOL
I'll have to take your word for it. Congress seems like a wretched hive of scum and villainy from the outside.

There are some Members who are for sure! The key thing is that they don't do anything outwardly illegal or that would cast them in a negative light to most people. Push comes to shove if they do they have even more high-powered and well-respected friends. Gaetz had none of these everyone thinks he's a slimeball and a perv
