🚨🚨HUGE GOP CORRUPTION: Yet another high ranking Republican official has been ensnared in a corruption scandal, and this one has landed him behind bars for an eye-popping maximum sentence of 20 years!
Ohio House Speaker Larry Lee Householder was found guilty of running a $60 bribery scheme, the largest such scheme in the history of the state.
Householder attempted to take $60 million from FirstEnergy Corp in exchange for his support of legislation that would bail out the company to the tune of $1 billion dollars. The legislation was passed after he became Speaker.
U.S. District Judge Timothy Black admonished Householder, calling him "a bully with a lust for power" and adding that “The court and the community’s patience for Mr. Householder has passed."
Republicans often claim to want to "drain the swamp" but we often learn that the swamp is located right in their own back yards.
Do you believe having Donald Trump as the leader of their party is the primary reason for so many in their ranks being indicted and convicted for corruption, or do you think there is an equal amount of wrongdoing in both parties?
