Yet ANOTHER GOPper in the Goop

[jaF0]

CLEVELAND (AP) — A judge in Columbus has frozen $8 million in assets of Sam Randazzo, a former Ohio utility regulator and current target of an FBI investigation, to preserve the assets for future collection.

Franklin County Judge Chris Brown filed the order Thursday in response to a motion filed this week by Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost as part of a lawsuit against Akron-based FirstEnergy Corp.

Yost in a motion last week seeking to add Randazzo and two fired FirstEnergy executives to the lawsuit, said he would seek forfeiture of $4.3 million the company admitted paying Randazzo in January 2019 for his future help as chair of the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio.

Randazzo was appointed as Ohio's top utility regulator by Republican Gov. Mike DeWine in February 2019 and took office two months later.

Can we just indict the entire party as an ongoing criminal enterprise?

"Dec. 6 (UPI) -- Federal authorities on Monday arrested former U.S. Rep. David Rivera, accusing him of secretly working for a Venezuelan state-run oil company to pitch the prospects of an improved relationship between the United States and Venezuela.

The U.S. Attorney's Office in the Southern District of Florida said Rivera, a Cuban American who is well known in Florida political circles, was arrested in the Atlanta area. He served in the House from 2011 to 2013 after a long career in the Florida state legislature."


And this fun bit:

" Rivera is the longtime friend and former housemate of Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., but Rubio is not involved I n the case. "

New York GOP leader calls accusation of faked bio for new GOP House member "serious"​

NY Congressman-elect George Santos won a House seat on Long Island in November but now much of his biography and resume appear to have been invented.


Geee, a GOPper lied? Say it ain't so.

 

[butters]

Santos' work history listed on his campaign biography mentions that he worked at Citigroup and Goldman Sachs, but both of the Wall Street firms told the Times "they had no record of his ever working there."
Similarly, officials at Baruch College found no record of Santos or anyone with a matching name and date of birth graduating from the college in 2010 despite Santos claiming he received a bachelor's degree in economics and finance.

but will the top echelons act on this? if so, how does that work out?

Here’s another whopper.

“This day, 30 years ago, Nelson Mandela walked out of prison and entered into discussions about apartheid. I had the great honor of meeting him. I had the great honor of being arrested with our U.N. ambassador on the streets of Soweto trying to get to see him on Robben Island”

NOW? Take out the entire UPC of California. THEY must all be on the take. They certainly don't represent the PEOPLE of California. PG&E is a convicted murderer, and yet still gets EVERYTHING it wants!! Higher fees and NO REPAIRS of all the shit that keeps killing people. LITERALLY!!

I don’t know who might have said that, but I am solidly certain that it wasn’t Donald Trump.

You are correct. It was another politician known for his whoppers.

Joe Biden was raised Puerto Rican, had cancer, jailed with Mandela, arrested in civil rights, drove semis, played flankerback, his hometown rained oil, awarded a dead uncle the Purple Heart, went to synagogue on Sunday, and fought a drug dealer named Corn-Pop.

Don't forget that he's been to the southern border too.


But of course, it's those dam R's who are the liars.

He also certified the 2016 Presidential Election for Donald Trump. What a bonehead he is, right?

So those things he made up are all actually true?

Like widespread election fraud, Covid19 under control, Hurricane Dorian to hit Alabama, windmills causing cancer, and being named Michigan’s Man of the Year?

Maybe Joe was trying to present him a purple heart, or take him for a ride in his SEMI!

Worse.

The current president, and head of the party which to this day still claims that Trump's Presidency is/was illegitimate, certified the results of his election and made it legitimate.

And these famous lines

“I graduated with three degrees from undergraduate school."

"I went to law school on a full academic scholarship, the only one in my class who had a full academic scholarship.”

"The first year in law school, I decided I didn’t want to be in law school and ended up in the bottom two-thirds of my class. And then decided I wanted to stay, went back to law school and, in fact, ended up in the top half of my class."

Maybe Joe was too busy flunking out of tractor trailer school. The left has the audacity to call Trump a liar, looks to me there’s a gross lack of self awareness.

My goodness the Trumpers seem to be beside themselves with butthurt today.

It's fine with me, though, if the thread is made about genuinely corrupt Democrats as well as Republicans. It will reveal Trumper lying about Democratic corruption while still being mostly about Republican corruption. No reason not to point to corruption wherever it is. The issue, of course, is that it's mostly floating around Donald Trump and Republicans (and being lied about by butthurt board Trumpettes).

Totally agree.

The post you quoted was specifically meant to mock BabyBoobs.

I wouldn’t vote for someone as corrupt as the orange traitor to be a restroom attendant let alone a candidate representing the Democratic Party. And I would demand the exact same level of prosecution for any Democrat politician who acted as corruptly.

Yep, I understood that.
