Because in this particular instance their new SECDEF pick is supposed to be the 'fall guy'...and is only there to root out 'White Supremacy' (Trump supporters) in the DoD. Once their 'policies' are in place he'll get thrown under the bus and they can get back to the business of arms deals and money laundering in 'Conflict Zones'...
A Democrat Controlled Senate Confirmed this fool, and for now they need him. So they won't do jack shit to allow anything to appear unethical surrounding him.
Even if they do manage to even present a bill to stop 'this behavior', you realize this shit happens on BOTH sides of the aisle.
Raytheon and their Legions of sub-contractors and materiel suppliers are waiting in the 'Lobby' with their big bags of 'contributions'...not to mention 'Registered Foreign Agents' eagerly lapping up the 'soft money' these types of contracts generate.
Whatever Legislation that manages to get out of Committee would likely be nothing more than political theater...so if you consider that a 'Win'...Knock yourself out.
