Mike Espy who is seeking to unseat appointed U.S. Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, R-Miss., and serve the last two years of the six-year term vacated when Republican Thad Cochran retired for health reasons
...
A Democratic Senate hopeful in Mississippi cashed in $750,000 after lobbying on behalf of an African despot currently on trial for crimes against humanity at the International Criminal Court.
Mike Espy, a former lobbyist and U.S. agriculture secretary under President Bill Clinton, is running against Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, who was appointed as a temporary successor to longtime Republican Sen. Thad Cochran after his retirement in April.
Neither Hyde-Smith nor Espy managed to break the required 50 percent of the vote last week, forcing a Nov. 27 runoff election which has largely been forgotten in the wake of Florida's electoral aftermath chaos. Espy lost to the Republican by less than one point.
...
Espy was paid $750,000 in 2011 by then Ivory Coast president Laurent Gbagbos government. The payment appears to contradict Espys previous statements that he accepted just a portion of it.
...
according to a FARA Supplemental Statement filed with the Department of Justice in 2011, not only did Espy collect the full $750,000 figure, he also dropped the contract just 15 days before it was supposed to end, contradicting his comments.
...
Espy represented the African ruler who lost the 2010 election, but refused to concede to his opponent, unleashing extrajudicial killings, torture, and rape of his political opponents, according to the U.S. State Department.
Hes currently being tried at the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity.

Under the Gbagbo regime, the Ivory Coasts cocoa industry was condemned due to rampant child labor and slaves as young as seven years-old.

After all the fraud done this pass election by the rats the republican doesn’t have a prayer! Watch a recount come to the mix after tomorrow night’s tally!! The evil mediaVOMITS aren’t working overtime smearing this lady as a racist for nothing!! THE FIX IS IN!!
Corruption? Graft? Child slavery? Nothing to see here. Because Democrat.
Was Espy able to get Jesse Jackson in on the deal with the Ivory Coast president?
Based on the facial expression on the pure as the driven snow Jacksons face he and Gbagbo were still off by a few hundred thousand dollars in negotiations.
She will win easily and past the amount where the election can be stolen.

Maybe it wasn't rape-rape. Thanks george76.
Mike Espy like his loser, cohorts, Andrew Gillum & Stacey Abrams is dirty from head to toe!!! Vote today in MS for Republican Cindy Hyde-Smith to be the next U.S. Senator from the great state of Mississippi!!! Mike Espy = “ZERO”!!!
Yeah......I thought the same thing......LOL.
Espy is so tolerant and compassionate (smirk)......especially to shakedown artists like Jesse.
Well, let’s hope that conservatives in MS show up, unlike in AL in December 2017.
Now on trial, Laurent Gbagbo lost the 2010 election, but refused to concede, unleashing extrajudicial killings,
torture, and rape of his political opponents........according to the US State Department.
Hope so.
