Robinson was caught last year using nearly $1 million in taxpayer money to fund her lavish wedding and personal lifestyle.

Lt. Gov. Randy McNally has called on Robinson to do the decent thing and resign immediately.

“While Senator Robinson’s convictions did not stem from actions taken while in office, they are nevertheless very serious,” McNally declared in a statement.

“As public servants, we are held to a higher standard.“

“My personal opinion is that it would be in the best interest of the state and her constituents for Senator Robinson to step down at this time.”

Upon appeal the leftist judge will rule the time served and time in court are enough and the rest is parole time on his own recognizance.

It is sort of endemic. When it is this open and this sloppy, you don’t have to look.

This sort of corruption is actually penny ante stuff. Robinson got caught because she was stupid about how she did it. In actuality, all politicians at every level are on the take in one way or another. The worst corruption is in DC where unimaginable trillions of taxpayer dollars slosh around, and grifters from around the world all jostle for a piece of it. We are all stuck with the legacy of the late 19th and early 20th centuries “reformers” who maneuvered to make an income tax constitutional.

Politicians who steal a million go to jail.

Politicians who steal a hundred million get honorary degrees from Ivy League colleges and catered cocktail parties in their honor.
