"Why would you give someone a monopoly without taking a cut?" asked Sen. Ken Jacobsen, D-Seattle.
WA state Ping!
The Tribes give MILLIONS to the Democrats! This is a drop in the bucket.
Ropes and Gray LLC is the only law firm in the United States that is a member of the American Gaming Association. They lobby to increase the amount Casino developers can contribute to pols. Guess who’s a partner there? MA Governor Deval Patrick’s wife Diane.
She did! She just made structured it to go to (D) campaign donations instead of infrastructure.
This state is swimming in corruption and we are just bobbing up and down in the swells treading water.
I pray she’s out of a job come Nov. She’s accomplished nothing since in office besides giving tax payer money to unions and indian casinos in exchange for campaign contributions.
She’ took a 2 billion surplus and turned it into a 2 billion deficit. She’s helping Clay Bennett move our 40 year old NBA franchise to Oklahoma. 520 bridge and the alaska way viaduct are falling apart.
I’ve never witnessed such a miserable do-nothing as Gregorie, and I grew up in Hawaii so I’m an expert in do-nothing corrupt politicians.
I proposed to Tim Eyman that we have a referendum on expanding gambling to non-tribal establishments. We need to try it again because the Democrats in WA are in collusion with the tribes to use the tribes for their social engineering goals. They are trying to give control of ALL the water in rural areas to the Indians, as well as unlimited hunting rights on all state property, including where game birds are released.
The threat of opening gambling is the only card that we hold in the deck. We need to force the tribes to deal with us on an equal playing field.
When you elect a Rat this stuff is expected to happen. Yes it happens to republocants, but in far less numbers, and usually to RINO’s.
If McCabe really cared about getting Rossi elected, Rossi would have won in a land slide last election. He isn't interested in exposing her racketeering because it would also expose some of his Republican buddies like AG McKenna and other officials, including judges, who favor the BIAW.

“She shouldn’t take any campaign money, nor should her political party, and it smells too quid pro quo for my liking.”

Yes, it can happen here. This is just one example.
If the Democrats are allowed to come to power they will coral the money, find ways to stuff the ballot box, and appoint judges that will let them do it.
