Pornographic email scandal ripples through Pennsylvania politics

PHILADELPHIA -- Over the past 15 months, beleaguered Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane has released a steady stream of messages retrieved from a state email server that show state officials and employees trading pornographic, racist and misogynistic messages.

There are jokes about rape and sexual assault, photos mocking African Americans and other minorities, and insults leveled at people because of their weight, their sexual orientation or their religion. At least two state Supreme Court justices and numerous officials in the office of the attorney general have been caught in the scandal that has been dubbed "Porngate."

A small sampling: A photo of a pantsless woman on her knees performing oral sex on a man is captioned "Making your boss happy is your only job." A picture of a white man fending off two African American men while carrying a bucket of fried chicken reads "BRAVERY At Its Finest." The sender of the email that shows a group of men engaged in sex included this message to friends, "How friggin gay are you?"

Here’s something the US MSM has been avoiding like the plague.

I wonder why?

Sounds a lot like the Clinton Crime family to me....

I lived in PA for 17 years, in Northeastern, Pa...there was all kinds of things going on, some coming out of New Jersey, some coming out of New York....

She has taken this case and turned it around and pointed it the leaders no only from Philly, but the whole of the Commonwealth...a Hillary trick for sure...

From the story:

When Kane took office in 2013, she decided not to pursue criminal charges against at least five Philadelphia Democrats - including four state elected officials and a traffic court judge - who were caught accepting cash or gifts from a lobbyist. Fina had been the top prosecutor during the three-year undercover investigation.

I think the main reason this story has been ignored by the MSM is because they haven't been able to tie it to a Republican officeholder.

I’m beginning to think corruption is ingrained in human nature; some folks just suppress it better than others until they can get into position to benefit from it.

Let’s see.. Democratic Justice:

I’m guessing all culprits will be suspended with full pay until they’re eligible to retire.

Yes, the whole story is worth reading. I’m beyond being shocked by anything in the emails, but am impressed by how this has been kept out of anything but the local press. Without the internet, we’d know nothing of it.

Of course, there's that. LOL.

But the story isn't actually about porn. They use that word to push peoples' buttons.

She actually wants to go after people for indulging in politically-incorrect humor.

Can't risk offending the hyper-sensitive snowflakes, ya know.

Besides, Democrats define "porn" as anything they don't like; while actual porn is ok, as long as it's "their" porn.

Striking a blow against Political Correctness by pornographic, racist and misogynistic emails.

It’s a dirty job but somebody’s gotta do it.

Oh! Look at this!

AG Kane drops member of legal defense team.

The "dropped member" was none other than Hillary's favorite mouthpiece, Lanny Davis! Lanny was helping Kathleen Kane with her Porno Gate legal troubles!

This unfortunate dismissal took place on 8 July 2015. Then, on 17 September 2015 (71 days later), Lanny was forced to write that painful suck-up e-mail to Hillary, asking her to help him out because he was being forced to hand out his shingle because of upcoming expenses.

The American Lawyer is doing a Cover Story (ugh!) about my new law firm, Lanny J. Davis & Associates about my finally hanging up my own shingle after all these years and at a ripe young age, with a 12 year-old and a 5 year-old to pay college tuition for to I cant even state the age I will be in writing when I write my last tuition check.
Lanny wants Hillary to make herself available for an interview with a reporter from The American Lawyer by the name of David Levine. He also wants to know if Hillary will ask Philippe Reines or Cheryl Mills to do the same.

So, after being dropped by Ms. Kane, Lanny spent a frustrating 71 days trying to get another cushy job with some Democrat politician in a tough spot, but the pickings were sparse, so he has to hang out his shingle and look for work among the ordinary shmoes!

Au contraire. The story says she is revealing the porn and non-pc stuff discovered in her political rivals' emails to shield herself from prosecution for failing to prosecute other Democrats caught in wrong-doing.
