Democrats who control the state House of Representatives have quietly hired a high-profile Boston law firm as they steel themselves for a likely court fight with state Auditor Diana DiZoglio.

The firm, CEK Boston, is led by former First Assistant Attorney General Thomas Kiley, who has years of experience at the intersection of politics, policy and law in Massachusetts.

...

Last fall, Massachusetts voters overwhelmingly approved a statewide ballot question giving DiZoglio, a Methuen Democrat and former state lawmaker, the power to audit her onetime colleagues on Beacon Hill.

Legislative leaders in the state House and Senate have consistently pushed back against the effort, arguing that such an audit would fly in the face of the separation of powers in the state’s constitution.

Funny how all of these Democrats do not want to be audited.

And the Mass RATs are fighting one of their own to keep their corruption under wraps. Name one state under the Democrats control that isn’t rife with corruption.

Diana DiZoglio must be a rarity - an honest Democrat politician. One in a thousand. I thought a Democrat auditing other Democrats would just be another slam dunk (i.e., ‘move along, nothing to see here’).
