Port Authority cites 'profoundly disturbing' conduct in resignation of commissioner (Democrat)
Nj.com ^ | 04/23/2018 | Ted Sherman

Caren Z. Turner, a Democratic lobbyist from Tenafly, has resigned as a commissioner from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, after an investigation was opened into what agency officials would only describe as "profoundly disturbing conduct."

Officials would not disclose the circumstances, but two sources with knowledge of the investigation said it involved her intervention in a recent traffic stop in connection with her daughter. Both said Turner apparently flashed her Port Authority badge in an effort to intercede with police officers on the scene.

The video is a must watch.

From Wikipedia: "Caren Z. Turner is a former commissioner of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. She served on Hillary Clinton's national finance team and is a co-chairman of the Financial Committee for Ready for Hillary, a super PAC created to draft Clinton for the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election."

Hellooooo. What the hell is the point of going through with all that election stuff it you can’t abuse your position once you get there. Sheeeesh. It’s not like she drove her car off a bridge and left an intern inside. ;-(

So, I read this far, “Both said Turner apparently flashed her”, and figured I knew where this story was going.

Then they threw me a curve ball with the rest of the sentence, “Port Authority badge in an effort to intercede with police officers on the scene.”

I think the bridges and tunnels connecting NYC with NJ are something like $15 per trip.Then there are the airports.I’ll bet that there are billions that flow through the Chairman’s hands each year.

What shocks me most about this article is the opening sentence...

“Caren Z. Turner, a Democratic lobbyist from Tenafly...”

Someone in the MSM actually put someone’s political affiliation at the start of an article - rather than bury it at the back or not even report it?

Whoever wrote the article must be a newbie at NJ.com. Trust me, they’ll get a call from the senior editorial staff about the proper “editing” of future articles like this.

Another reason to be thank God Hillary lost.......Turner would have been burrowed in the federal system, eternally sucking up tax dollars, throwing her weight around.

They should have arrested her for interfering with a police investigation.

“Caren Z. Turner, a Democratic lobbyist from Tenafly...”

Threatening law enforcement to get them to refrain from enforcing the law against a family member doesn't seem particularly "Democratic" to me.

Actually, it seems more like Democrat party corruption.

Now if this had happened under Chris Christie, the MSM-Democrats would be working 24/7 to connect this Caren Z. Turner directly to the Governor's office, and once that connection was made, would be directly linking the Governor to this particular corrupt act.

The Wikipedia article starts out "Caren Z. (Jackass) Turner..." Pretty funny.

Mizz Turner, a bit of advice. I wouldn’t be drinking and driving any time soon. The cops can crank down pretty hard on those handcuffs.

She was NOT doing that——watch the video.

That said,she is a detestable woman.
