The indictment revealed little about the nature of Hastert’s misconduct,

案如果没有大多数共和党议员支持，他不会拿到floor来表决。
这就是为什么，参议院一定要Rubio on board.如果有Rubio支持，参议院就能拿到75票
的支持。这样的话，就会给Boehner leverage,违反Hastert rule，拿到floor来表决。
如果参议院通过margin太小，拿通过house机会很小。 |

是呢,因为Boehner用hastert rule. Majority of the majority.就是要大部分共和党

要想boeher拿来表决,那参议院就必须70票通过.这叫用参议院压众议院,给boehner解压

我估计 House GOP 会妥协，出一个和参院近似的 CIR 版本，这样Bohner 就不用违反

这4个bill都是参议院高票(>70)通过的.然后Boehner拿到floor表决.大多数共和党议员
反对.但是在民主党的帮助下,最后通过.所以conventional wisdom认为,如果参议院高

发帖数: 1920 | 35 位于芝加哥的美国联邦检察官办公室当天向法庭提交的一份文件显示，前众议长哈斯特
尔特（Dennis Hastert）涉嫌于多年前对一位14岁少年实施性虐待，事后长期持续支付
“封口费”，直至被联邦调查局等部门发现介入调查。
今年74岁的哈斯特尔特于1999年至2007年担任众议院议长，是美国历史上任职时间最
长的共和党籍议长。检方文件显示，上世纪70年代，哈斯特尔特在芝加哥郊外一所高中
担任教师和拳击教练，在前往拳击训练营的一次旅行期间，他在旅馆对同行的一位14岁
少年实施了性虐待。
为弥补和掩盖对这位少年的“不当行为”，哈斯特尔特2010年同意向对方支付350万美
元“封口费”。从2010年到2014年，他从银行账户提取了大约170万美元现金，全部交
给了对方。
根据美国法律，对于超过1万美元的现金交易，金融机构须向美国财政部金融犯罪执法
网络提交报告，官方旨在通过分析报告发现不法犯罪线索。为避免“封口费”被发现、
规避现金交易报告，哈斯特尔特从2012年开始行事更谨慎，每次提现不超过1万美元，
但他异常的银行交易记录仍然引起联邦调查局和国税局的关注。2014年，联邦调查局正
