Had a friend who worked as an intern for Strom way back when. Said he was given a CC and said dont ever sweat using it. It’s all covered.

Both parties at the state and federal level are disgusting.

I dont know if he reads any of this and maybe i’m making a fool of myself but i will post this nonsense to Trump’s facebook so at least at the Federal level maybe he can change some of this garbage.

Probably whistling into the wind with 10,000 posts a day.

remind my of a Bruce Springsteen song lyric (i know he’s left wing garbage but i like his songs)

“spend your summer praying in vain for a savior to rise from these streets”

Disclaimer: Jesus is my religious savior, I’m talking political. Just so no one misinterprets.

The Founding Fathers, being honest moral men, never conceived that their allowing legislatures to set their pensions and perks that over time said legislatures would become foul and corrupt.

These current Legislative criminals vote themselves and their families total financial support at the working man's expense. The support will go on for several generations in some instances. They go to their capitals and eat, drink, drug, travel, copulate with boys, girls, men and women, evacuate their bowels and snore all at our expense. They go and make oppressive laws, rules and regulations favoring themselves and their corrupt buddies.

How long are we going to stand for such foul conduct?

Criminal elements on the public payroll; sucking off the backs of struggling taxpayers; using public monies for their own self-serving political agendas (and other criminal purposes).

WISCONSIN LAWMAKERS' stockpile unused sick days to later pay for their health insurance. COLORADO LAWMAKERS' per diems boost their pensions.

========================================

TAX-PAYING AMERICANS NEED TO GO THIS ROUTE to nail greedy govt officials in Wisconsin and Colorado and people like John Boehner, Barack Obama and Loretta Lynch labeling taxpayers "terrorists," Bill and Hillary Clinton imperiling taxpayers' ntl security, Lois Lerner and John Koskinen targeting taxpayers, all the criminal members of Congress, and other factotums on the govt payroll.

===============================================

BACKSTORY The 1980 Georgia General Assembly was concerned about “the increasing sophistication of various criminal elements on the public payroll” (and those in elective and appointive office). The GA Assembly then adopted the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), patterned after a similar federal law.

(RICO is routinely used to try to prove that a legal business was being used for illegal means, and, in at its inception, RICO was used to prosecute drug traffickers or organized crime members).

In recent years prosecutors have applied RICO to crooked government officials: (1) those accused of using their public offices for personal gain, and, (2) tax-paid officials of govt agencies using public monies to flout the law.

To bring a case under Georgia’s RICO law, there must be at least two underlying felonies — such as fraud, bribery, witness tampering (among other felonies).

RICO allows prosecutors to include multiple defendants charged with various crimes in the blanket indictment, and to charge that govt employees, publicy-funded and publicly-sanctioned entities were allegedly part of an ongoing criminal enterprise.

EXAMPLE A govt official commits two felonies by (1) accepting, and, (2) filing falsified documents.

==============================================

HERE'S THE PATHWAY TO LAUNCH---Texas took the lead w/ 26 state AG's, successfully arguing that Obama's beatified DACA/DAPA's were made more desirable employees than US citizens.

==============================================

Any public official using tax dollars to flout that law is a lawbreaker: in cases where govt officials on the public payroll not giving public notice is a violation at the federal level of the 1946 Administrative Procedure Act, which requires notice in the Federal Register. Laws demand that taxpayers have the opportunity to submit views in writing.

===============================================

NOTE If proof is established that RICO'ed criminal public officials impaired the commercial and economic activity of the region, that could also be prosecutable under the Hobbs Act.

=================================================

PRIME RICO TARGETS Boehner and his Congrssional buddies are complicit in the massive fraud, waste, and criminal use of tax dollars......and the flagrant abuse of taxpayers. They could have reeled in arrogant govt agencies conducting criminal activities (EPA, IRS, BLM, HUD, DOE and DOL). They could have defunded the criminal enterprise called "Obamacare" and the Planned Parenthood parasites living the high life w/ our tax-dollars....but to taxpayers' eternal disgust....they didn't.
