The founder of a prominent political action committee opposing President Donald Trump’s reelection was arrested on Tuesday in part of a public corruption probe. Matthew Borges, a lobbyist and former chairman of the Ohio Republican Party, was arrested in connection to a year-long $60 million federal bribery scheme. According to prosecutors, Borges and three other lobbyists allegedly conspired with the Republican Speaker of the Ohio House of Representatives to secure a $1.3 billion taxpayer bailout for an Ohio-based energy company, FirstEnergy Solutions. Law enforcement officials claim that in exchange for helping FirstEnergy receive the bailout, which was meant to prevent the shutdown of two nuclear power plants, a nonprofit controlled by the House Speaker received $60 million.

Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk.
How long before Mittwit Romney criticizes law enforcement and the Trump administration for this anticorruption bust?
This Swamp creature was trying to stop the anti-corruption President. His motives are clear.
suh-weet. :)
If convicted all those charged are looking a major prison time.
Very interesting
Lock him up.
Paging Kaesich, pick up the White Phone.
Are there any mail carriers’ sons involved in this heist?
It’s a WIN!!
Clean the scum out!
Great news. I hate these scumsuckers as much as I despise the Rats.
Thick as thieves, eh?
Right after Kasich is going to be speaking for Biden at the demoncrat convention hahaha
Something about hoisting and petards comes to mind.

There has been a concerted effort to kill off the nuclear power plants here in Ohio. I’ve read several think tank articles on the attack. The renewable energy aligned crowd are trying to destroy nuclear altogether in Ohio. There are three large scale solar farms to come online soon. It’s a national security issue as far as I’m concerned. We should be looking into having diverse power generation capabiliities, not less. Gas generator technology is well developed. It’s time to resurrect the nuclear jet engine technology to compliment gas generators. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_Nuclear_Propulsion
Hopefully just the first of many Bush League Republicans to be arrested for corruption.
And, it was revealed the other day that the co-founder of the Never-Trump “Lincoln” whatever is a paid lobbyist for Vladimir Putin. The political corruption in our country runs wide and runs deep.
And, all those corrupt politicians rallied against Donald Trump to hide and protect their corruption.
As Limbaugh has repeatedly stated, no Presidenthas ever been subjected to the Deep State anal exam that Donald Trump has been subjected to. No person subjected to such a determined anal exam could ever survive such a determined probe unscathed. Limbaugh stated that Donald Trump is quite possibly the cleanest President in the history of our country save George Washington.
And, this fact is driving DC and the MSM utterly insane.
