under different circumstances this is congressional-inquiry level scandal
I talked to a woman who quit an AUSA job recently. She was asked by main DOJ to dismiss a Medicare fraud prosecution because the defendant was the daughter of a girlfriend of a MAGA figure.

Politicians should not be treated like toddlers. A time out on the naughty step before being welcomed back is not an effective deterrent for adults who've deliberately or recklessly engaged in ethical wrongdoing. It's an encouragement for more violations - as demonstrated by Mandelson's career.

One lesson from the Epstein–Mandelson affair is that we need to stop routinely rehabilitating political careers after serious scandals.
When politicians knowingly engage in grave ethical wrongdoing, that should permanently end their political careers. Being "talented" should not override that.
