Conservative, Inc.: Ohio GOP Speaker of the House Arrested in Massive, Massive Bribery Scandal
All the grotesquely fat grifters getting rich off our votes...
This "Republican" Corporate Accounts Servicer was the lead grifter in a $60 million bribery ring, taking money to push through a bailout for... nuclear power plants.COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- The powerful Republican speaker of the Ohio House and four associates were arrested Tuesday in a $60 million federal bribery case connected to a taxpayer-funded bailout of Ohio's two nuclear power plants. Hours after FBI agents raided Speaker Larry Householder's farm, U.S. Attorney David DeVillers described the ploy as likely the largest bribery and money-laundering scheme that had "ever been perpetrated against the people of the state of Ohio." Gov. Mike DeWine, also a Republican, called on Householder to resign immediately, saying it would be impossible for him to be an effective legislative leader given the charges against him. The head of the Ohio Republican Party, the state attorney general and the Senate president also urged Householder to step down. The leaders of the House Republican Caucus called the allegations shocking but stopped short of asking Householder to resign.So they're running the 1997 Democrats playbook on Clinton, where they call it "simply indefensible" but then defend it?
Householder was one of the driving forces behind the nuclear plants' financial rescue, which added a new fee to every electricity bill in the state and directed over $150 million a year through 2026 to the plants near Cleveland and Toledo. ... Investigators said Householder controlled Generation Now, a group that received $60 million from an unidentified company over the past three years. In exchange, Householder and the other defendants worked to pass the nuclear plant bailout and block attempts to overturn it, according to a criminal complaint filed by the FBI.Three other human criminals were charge, including Matthew Borges. Who's Matthew Borges? He's an avatar of the Conservative, Inc. grifter class:
Matthew Borges, 48, of BexleyThese people were never conservative nor even merely "Republican." They just liked feathering their nests with corporate money. It's time to purge them. As a start.
Former Ohio Republican Party chairman Matt Borges founded a super PAC to elect Democrat Joe Biden. ... He made headlines just last month for announcing he would be voting for Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden and creating a PAC to help defeat President Trump.
Matt Borges - the former chair of the Ohio Republican Party - set up a #NeverTrump PAC to try and elect Joe Biden

Worse.
"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague." -- Marcus Tullius Cicero

Matt Borges is an American politician, and the former Chairman of the Ohio Republican Party. He has been listed as a potential candidate for chairman of the RNC. He was also honored with the Distinguished Alumni Award by The Ohio State University Department of Political Science in 2019. He also serves on OSU's Advisory Board for the Political Science Department

If that is true then I'll bet it is a 'redirect' or clean partition to throw people off. TrueCrypt had this to protect political activists in so-called hostile environments.
I'd look at the ISP time and access logs and if he used a VPN and the visible partition VPN access log does not reflect the EXACT same activity, that would be a decent measure of guilt IMHO.

What, EXACTLY have "conservatives" conserved over the last 50 years? Anything? We need a new brand, and a new focus.

Next thing you know 2 lawyers show up asking why do you do not like Iranians, Pakis, Pollochs, etc.
Your defense: I gave out syllabus of course. How to request grade change. etc.

There is nothing new in any of this. Except, perhaps, in occasionally arresting one. The Romans had corruption baked in, for by rising to high office, one had to spend a shit ton and would thus rob a shit ton +1.
People who run for office are mostly crooked, greedy, power hungry perverts. It always has been so and always will be.
That's why we need to keep power from them as much as possible. You can be a free people only if you don't give you freedom, and your money, to these grifters.
Hopefully someday a culture will figure that out. And, hopefully, won't get eaten by some asshole country that doesn't care about that shit and just makes a big ass army.

Any replacement party will need some unwavering principles to guide them. Ones that absolutely will not be violated. Zero Tolerance.
Like all the rights in the Constitution. All of them, all the time. Freedom of speech and thought always.
A balanced budget where all agencies have a zero budget that's not some carryover from the previous fiscal year.
No public unions under any circumstances.
Absolute equality under the law and if a few high-profile pols go to jail or get executed, then that's just too fvcking bad for them. They should've thought about that before they decided to break the law.
A self-contained America that produces as much as possible right here, the goal being to have the world's highest standard of living.
A well-educated population where politics plays no part. Reality does.
And that's just for starters.

Kind a pointless academic question, but kind of curious.
=============
As a Buckeye, I can answer that. No, we don't have the worst state GOP, but we live in the house that Taft built. That is to say, have a high number of GOPe "country club" Republicans who don't care about social issues or the Long March or the fact that the 5 largest cities are being turned into economic donuts by Democrat mayors and councils. As long as the taxes are low and there is a minimum of red tape binding their investments. it's good. Jealous of their power, they shut down Ken Blackwell (the anti-Obama from Cincinnati) over a decade ago, and with Kasich in the lead they snapped at Trump's ankles in 2016. (Trump still won the state, because he visited 3 times and the Hildabeast dissed the Appalachian counties which were usually Democrat.)

I hope so too. Kasich kept the lights on in OH during the Obamessiah years, but he didn't do enough to get a true recovery started, which had to wait until 2017. His backstabbing of Ted Cruz and insulting no-show at the '16 Convention IN HIS OWN STATE really pissed me off. He's an arrogant, selfish liability, and if this scandal chases him off the stage into retirement it'll be the best thing for Trump in 2020 and beyond.

Katie's Seafood Restaurant, a pier-side establishment at the Port of Galveston, gets it's fish from the business next door. Which, is Katie's Seafood, which owns about 18 boats in the Katie's Fishing Fleet. Shrimpers, long liners, seine netters.
It is not an infrequent occurrence that your chef may have also been who just gutted, cleaned and filleted that fish, while it was still twitching.
FRESH seafood really means something here.

Blonde M. - your state has term limits, first major state to have them. That was before the 94% decline in governance and civic culture in CA.
Posted by: rhomboid
========
Term limits 1990. Amnesty 1986. Last Republican governor in probably forever elected 1990, kept the incumbent advantage in 1994. (I don't count Schwarzennegger.)
I think the decline is attributable to something else, but it's true, Willie Brown and (the hopes of) Antonio Villaraigosa are examples of how moving around the board can keep an elitist crook in power beyond the intentions behind term limits.
I'm thinking on the federal level. Maxine Waters, that type. I know there are constitutional hurdles and there's some unfairness to it, but the professional political class is the greater threat.

He went into the TV business with "Joel Hyatt", otherwise known as Joel Zylberberg, who previously founded a franchised retail only law firm whose name I can't recall, and then sold the network to the Arabs. Al Gore sold to Al Jazeera.
Then, he talked a bunch of Democrat donors into making him a partner in some Silicon Valley investment firm, and he made a lot of money there too.
Gore Vidal used to tell a story that Al's father sold the oil rights to his family home to the Russians, via Armand Hammer's Occidental Petroleum, for a minimum annual payout in the millions but I don;t know if that is completely true. Vidal sometimes.... made shit up.

They had a good thing going, the uniparty had everything nicely arranged so that everyone on the inside at least had a nice comfortable job, if not also becoming filthy rich off bribery and graft. Plus legal but ethically questionable practices like trading off information that only they knew about.
Both sides would pander to their base (left and right) promising to fix the things their base care about (e.g. abortion on one side, racial grievances on the other). But they all were in on the game that they would make lots of noise, but not accomplish anything of significance. So everything just kept going, continuing resolution after continuing resolution, slow advancement of socialism through the administrative state, conservatism inc tsk tsking about it, while getting their donation checks from their subscribers and people going on their cruises.
Then something happened that they never expected. The voters, including many historically Democrat voters, said "you know what, we voted twice for the black guy because you told us it would heal all of the animosity, but yet again you all did nothing for us, so fuck you, we are voting for the outsider".
People like Katshit and the rest of the NTers figured there was no downside to opposing Trump, that he couldn't win. Hillary would keep the same scam going that has been going on since at least 1988, if not longer.
Now here we are in 2020 and they have the same theory. They aren't bothered by the leftist platform of Biden, because they think he is just lying to keep the leftist engaged and voting for him. All of the institutions are lined up trying to force us all back into the box that let them run their scams and line their pockets. Corporations, media, tech, etc, etc all want to go back to the days when we didn't know what we know now.
And that is the dilemma for this election. Can they keep the chaos up long enough for people who voted for Trump to sit home. Essentially bully them or terrorize them enough to give up, roll over, and allow the administrative state to run the country.
I always come back to the question. Who will vote for Biden in 2020 who voted for Trump in 2016? Either there are new voters for Biden who didn't vote in 2016, or Trump voters stay home, or Trump voters change their vote to Biden. Those are the only 3 ways that Biden can win (and yes I know someone will say even more massive fraud than 2016).
I just don't see the scenario that gets them to that outcome. And yes the polls say Biden is ahead by 14 or something stupid like that. But believing those polls is the same as believing any other institution that has been shown to be lying to us.
