    Boehner is issued warning by Tea Party (the people who's rhetoric he used to rise to power):

    "The Ohio Liberty Council, the main umbrella organization for 58 Tea Party groups in the state, supports efforts to strengthen the OCE and is warning House GOP leaders that any attempt to weaken it will upset Tea Party activists.

    “I[f] they move in the opposite direction of transparency that this office provides, I think we will be very upset about that,” said Chris Littleton, president of the Ohio Liberty Council and the Cincinnati Tea Party. “Symbolically, it’s a huge problem for them ... they should be as transparent as they can be. Any opposition to that would be inappropriate on their part.”

    Boehner and GOP leaders are gearing up to kill the Office of Congressional Ethics:
