JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - A longtime consultant of U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown, D-Jacksonville, said she declined to talk to federal investigators who came to her door this week, and Politico is reporting that the congresswoman was served with a subpoena.

Which one is she?
She’s probably a criminal; but the boundaries of her district are bull shit.
This is the leftists creating leverage so she withdrawals from the fight over redistricting.

YES THERE IS A GOD! Pray that this woman get’s whats coming to her.I live in her district by choice of where we happened to purchase our retirement home. With her...everything is about race and her...sound like anyone else we know in her party?
A perfect delightful black woman ...conservative ran against her in the last election and of course she lost.
May Corrine Brown get what’s coming to her ....amen so let it be!

Another crook elected to office because of their color. There are dozens of them in the Democrat Black Caucus.
This is one of several investigations she’s faced. Her district was butched in he last redistricting though so she may not survive this time.
Stop hating on Southerners, you Yankee blue-belly you.
Corrine Brown is so crooked she once had Nigerians sending her money. True.
This is Corrine Brown, U.S. Representative for Florida's 5th congressional district
And this is her Congressional District that was created specifically to get a black elected
That’s got to be one of the most gerrymandered districts in America,
But I have the distinction of living in THE most gerrymandered district in the country — MD 3. (And MD 2 is #3 in the country. Nice to know Maryland leads the country in SOMETHING!)

Crimnal.
Corrine is slightly more intelligent than her CBC colleagues who are on record about the tipping-over of Guam and the American Flag on Mars. Still with her gerrymandered district in severe doubt, her career was equally in doubt.
If fairness though, let us note that a gerrymandered district is a two-sided affair. The GOP controlled Florida Legislature created it and those down in the Miami area and elsewhere in the state for all these minority candidates to be elected so that the rest of the population would elect more GOP candidates.
I am a firm believer that it is better morality to have geographically concentrated districts. However, I believe that the Democrats should go FIRST!
I just looked uo a map of MD-3.
What a mess!
And what an affront to the concept of equality and insult to the US Constitution.
Here is the kicker about the serpentine Florida 5th District that I posted on.
Florida's state constitution requires that Congressional Districts:
"must be contiguous. Unless otherwise required, districts must be compact, as equal in population as feasible, and where feasible must make use of existing city, county and geographical boundaries."
We live way over in one corner of it. I could practically spit into 4, 5, or 7.
