1. I did google it - did not find reliable sources. NYP is not a good source. 2. you call yourself a college student? try that with your professors and see what happens.

thanks for the sources! notably, the actual house ethics report notes that the guidelines now allow apply to all guests, not just spouses. The committee is selectively choosing to apply the prior guidelines retroactively

I could tell right from the start that even if I sent you sources you wouldn’t care by the fact that you were too lazy to look up sources yourself. “No amount of evidence will ever persuade an idiot” - Mark Twain

I did care! I went and I read the ethics committee report! And I legitimately appreciate your effort for compiling them here however, the conclusion I reached from the sources doesn’t totally jibe with yours. And that’s okay
