WIKIPEDIA: Gordon D. Fox (born 1961) is an American politician from Providence, Rhode Island and the Speaker of the Rhode Island House of Representatives. A Democrat, he was first elected to the legislature in 1992 and was elected speaker on February 11, 2010.
However:
>> Liberals have described Fox as a political conservative, criticizing him for supporting a voter ID law, championing a bill to cut income taxes for high earners, and taking campaign contributions from the National Rifle Association.
Personally:
Fox came out publicly in 2004 and is in a long-term relationship with Marcus LaFond. He is one of four openly gay members of the Rhode Island General Assembly... He is the first openly gay house speaker in the United States
Gregg tweet 38 m ago:
>>FBI just arrived. Spkear Fox’s State House office
1 hr ago
>>State police camped ousride speakr fox State house. Blocking access referring q to usatty. Spox; “no idea”
So, this is a homosexual Leftist who has strayed off the plantation.
Think it’s the Chicago Way?
Uh oh.. Maybe he’s got the goods on Bathhouse Barry. He bess not get on any airplanes.
Gay I don’t care about.
If he’s conservative, now that I like.
Suspicious, not, that the “policia” choose to raid his office?
Try the Obamadork’s office...home of felony, sleeze, and corruption. Heck, you might even find Hillary’s time cards from her felonies years ago in there.
>>If you dont know Gordon Fox, he is the first openly gay speaker of any state assembly, the man to whom Lincoln Chafee handed the Marriage Equality bill immediately after he signed it.
Nothing to see here...just another dummycrat try to earn another merit badge.
When the Feds (IRS) go after a Democrat, it’s one of two things.
It’s payback or he is so unbelievably corrupt that even they want to get rid of him. Hard to believe anyone is that corrupt based on the Dem’s history of defending drug users and women abusers to the bitter end.
Another criminal Democrat office holder.
Ho hum.
wpri-TV:
>> He has also been criticized for his involvement in pushing through the 38 Studios deal.
Curt Schilling’s company. Wiki: “... the company moved to Rhode Island as part of securing a $75 million loan guarantee from that state’s quasi-public Economic Development Corporation, 38 Studios shut down a few months later. The failure of the controversial Rhode Island loan spurred investigations by the news media and the government.”
“Very interesting ...”
I guess we’ll find out a bit later what this is about.
It seems like, ‘poofter’, day here on FR...
I’m guessing that the IRS mistakenly thinks he’s a Tea Party member.
His political affiliation is not mentioned in the article posted. I’m shocked!
Democrat!? I’m shocked!
Yup “I had to look it up”.. :)
Not sure he was first....we have had one here in Oregon...Kate....who is now our (incompetent) SOS
Seems like that EVERYDAY here in the good ole USA
