FRiend, is it true that Grayson gave the keynote speech at this conference? If so, this doesn’t sound like “sleaze” to me—it seems like a real problem.
Elected officials give speeches at conferences and events all the time, that’s a fact of life. I doubt seriously that Grayson knew who Van Jones was, and he certainly wouldn’t approve of a Communist thug. You could dig up and slime any pol with guilt by association at such events. But the sleaze here is implying he is in the back pocket of Soros and a close personal acquaintance of Jones. Anyone with an ounce of brain matter knows that is bullcrap.
It’s not really a problem that he gave a speech at a Kentucky University on a matter of public concern, and it doesnt matter much who invited him.
The problem would depend on WHAT HE SAID.
So, what did he say anyway?
