Democrat lawmaker secretly filmed two of her critics in BED together to try and silence them, prosecutors say

Maryland State Senator Dalya Attar has been indicted after allegedly filming two of her rivals in bed together in an attempt to silence them.

The bombshell indictment, filed on October 23, alleged that Attar, 35, planted tracking and recording devices to catch her two critics in the act.

Attar then threatened to release the footage of the two 'in bed' unless they met her demands not to speak out against her publicly, prosecutors said.

She is facing eight federal charges of extortion and conspiracy related to the alleged plot, which prosecutors said occurred in the run-up to the 2020 and 2022 elections.

The target of her scheme was allegedly a political consultant whom Attar filmed in bed with a married man.

The Democrat state senator has held office since 2019, and was the first Orthodox Jewish woman to serve on the Maryland State Senate when she was selected to fill a vacant seat in January.

She has been recognized as the highest ranking Orthodox Jewish woman in US history, and is currently in a hotly contested re-election campaign to retain her senate seat.

Court records first reported by the Baltimore Sun showed that Attar is in federal custody, along with her brother Joseph Attar and another man named as Kalman Finkelstein, a city police officer.

According to the indictment, Attar, her brother and Finkelstein worked with four unnamed co-conspirators to carry out the clandestine scheme.

Attar had worked with the political consultant, who was identified as a dual US and Israeli citizen, during her 2018 election, but the two parted ways soon after due to some form of disagreement.

Good. This sets a precedent to prosecute Pelosi. Think about it: What did she do to deserve her position as Speaker? She (probably her husband) has a little black book with dirt on every member of Congress and that’s the leverage she used to get that position. I can’t prove it, but I can’t see any other explanation.

She’s definitely a woman, and not a transwoman.

Cool! Another Democrat first…” first Orthodox Jewish woman to serve on the Maryland State Senate ”

“Firsts” are very very important to Dems. Just ask that execrable Biden press secretary.

How many decades must pass before no more “firsts” remain?

The day I moved to Maryland I found a conservative talk station. The big story was about Shiela Dixon, Mayor of Baltimore. The day before, she was convicted of stealing gift cards from poor children and buying stuff for herself.

She made a plea bargain AFTER CONVICTION of resignation, no joke and she couldn’t run for office for two years. She kept her pension.

And if that’s not bad enough, she’s run and lost for Mayor a couple times since. She’s by far the most competent candidate.

Nothing these Marxist idiots do in Baltimore is a surprise.

The Founders knew that democracy is mob rule. They just didn’t say it would be organized crime right out loud. But I bet that is what they were thinking.
