Ubungu and his administration do this all the time. The stooge media barely reports it. They write it off as “politics”. But let a Republican do the same...

Remember when the Ubungu regime refused to help at Texas after some fires a few years ago. Due to Rick Perry being a Republican governor.

Humm'...this is NJ ....politics as usual...

Interesting because they think it will sink Fat Boy chances, they are peeling away the layers of corruption...

Guess they forget once the onion starts to peel, who knows when it will stop...

They needed a GOP target to take the attention off Obamacare. Looks like Christie's it.

Several of the last Governors in IL went to jail. Were these national headliners for weeks? Nope.

And Christie was whining about how slow the GOP House was.

Seriously? Does the liberal press really want to open up this can of drek?

Fine, let's take "a more comprehensive look" at Illinois politics BEFORE Barack became a household name sham...and not the media white-wash that was done on his behalf.

Pay for play? race-pimp shakedown artists? urban voter fraud? union corruption?...

anyone?...anyone?...Bueller?

...all that sleaze...and Obama comes out...pure as driven snow...

Yeah...riiiight...

Zimmer says Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno pulled her aside at a May event and told her unless the project is approved “we are not going to be able to help you.”

Sandy made landfall in New Jersey on October 29, 2012 so that event in May 2013 would have been more than 6 months later. Obviously, it wasn't emergency assistance. I'm guessing that Hoboken received (a bunch) of state help prior to this. Is Zimmer saying that she didn't receive any help from the state to clean up after Sandy? Or that she didn't receive as much state money as she might have wanted months after the storm?

(May 2013 was about the time that several nearby beach towns were putting potted palm trees on the boardwalks to spend all the Sandy aid money that they were receiving. IIRC, they didn't have potted palms before Sandy, and of course palms can't survive outdoors in our winters.)

the Christie administration withheld millions of dollars in recovery grants because she refused to sign off on a politically connected development

As if there's ever, in the history of New Jersey, a development that wasn't "politically connected."

Hell, you still can't paint your curb in NJ's urban areas without giving Bob Toricelli a lollipop and throwing some nickels on Frank Lautenberg's grave.

It sounds like the Christie Administration was saying there was relief funds available for a certain development, but the mayor of Hoboken prefers the method where you give the Democrat the money first, and then they decide what to do with it.

I saw that on MSNBC this morning.
But they admitted that it was perfectly legal if that did happen.
