From Washington: Ethics Scandals Rock Congress

From Washington: Ethics Scandals Rock Congress

Author: FOX News Radio April 25, 2026 Duration: 31:26
Congress is facing a wave of ethics scandals and a historic shift in member discipline, as expulsion threats and censures rise within an increasingly "toxic" institutional environment. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram joins to discuss the precedent-shattering expulsion of George Santos, the recent resignations of members facing criminal and ethical probes, and the ongoing legislative battle to end the DHS shutdown through a complex budget reconciliation process. Later, Fox News contributor and law professor Jonathan Turley joins to discuss the Supreme Court’s eroding institutional culture, Chief Justice Roberts’ struggle to maintain civility, and how Trump-appointed justices are prioritizing legal principles over political pressure.
