Charges seem they could be flimsy. What’s the odds this is a judicial hit on a republican leader?

Better than that. MONTGOMERY, Alabama --- Mike Hubbard, speaker of the Alabama House of Representatives and a powerful leader in the state
Republican Party, has been indicted by a grand jury and charged with 23 counts, including using his office for personal gain and soliciting things of value.
Hubbard, 52, who led a historic Republican takeover of the state Legislature during the 2010 election, was charged after an investigation in his home county that has lasted more than a year.
The charges against Hubbard include 23 class B felonies. Those charges include:
Four counts of using of his office as Chairman of the Alabama Republican Party for personal gain; One count of voting for legislation with a conflict of interest; Eleven counts of soliciting or receiving a thing of value from a lobbyist or principal; Two counts of using his office as a member of the Alabama House of Representatives for personal gain; Four Counts of lobbying an executive department or agency for a fee; One count of using state equipment, materials, etc. for private gain.

Yup. Wish I could reflexively defend the guy just because he’s not a Dem. but there is no reason to. The GOP squandered the trust.

Yes the timing smells like a septic pumping operation, and the charges also seem like the type of charges Democrats of ill intent would trump in effort to disgrace someone just prior to an election.
I call dirty tricks on this one. I can’t believe it is anything else.

Doesn’t pass the smell test. You can accuse 100% of politicians of these “alleged” crimes.

Republicans could do the same tricks but they lack a spine and a set of balls.
