James Traficant: “after 80 Americans were killed at Waco, the Justice Department…”

On the recordMarch 23, 2000

after 80 Americans were killed at Waco, the Justice Department investigated the Justice Department. When half of the Weaver family was shot down and killed, the Justice Department investigated the Justice Department. When serious charges concerning top government officials accused of doing business with Chinese nationals to influence our election was brought to the Justice Department, they looked the other way and did not investigate. Unbelievable. The hen house fox in America investigates the hen house fox. Now, Mr. Speaker, we reformed welfare, the IRS, and I am submitting a bill to reform the Justice Department. I am asking Rush Limbaugh to read it carefully, Michael Reagan, Tom Pope, Blanquita Cullum, Ron Verb, Tom Joyner, and help me from the outside like you did with the IRS. I yield back the lack of oversight on the Justice Department of the United States.
