Democrat Governor Resigns Amid Scandal

[longknife]

If he were Republican, the Lame Street Media would be shouting endlessly about this. As it is, we see reports on the internet – and silence on TV and radio. And, it appears he did no more than a lot of long-time politicians by using his position for the benefit of family and friends.


Nancy Pelosi anyone? Or Harry Reid? Or on and on and on.

Dem Billionaire Environmentalist Tom Steyer Has Deep Ties To The Oregon Corruption Scandal…


Of course a group he finances would be at the center of this…

Via WFB:

Top advisers to the billionaire environmentalist Tom Steyer helped run a green group, financed in part by Steyer himself, that is at the center of a corruption scandal that could force the Democratic governor of Oregon to resign.

An executive at one of Steyer’s nonprofit groups and a political vendor who has received hundreds of thousands of dollars from the hedge fund manager’s political operations helped run the group, which is accused of influencing state energy policy through undisclosed payments to Oregon’s first lady.

The controversy centers on Gov. John Kitzhaber’s fiancée, Cylvia Hayes. She was paid $118,000 by the Clean Energy Development Center (CEDC) to advocate for environmentalist policies in Oregon.

Hayes never disclosed those payments, despite acting as an informal adviser to the governor as he pushed a low-carbon fuel standard for the state.

Dan Carol, then a strategic adviser to CEDC, helped Hayes land the position. He was given a $165,000-per-year job in the Kitzhaber administration.

Kitzhaber is expected to resign today under intense scrutiny over the scandal. The scandal could extend beyond Oregon given Steyer’s involvement. Steyer has donated millions to a group that helped finance Hayes’ position, which could ensnare one of the Democratic Party’s most prominent fundraisers in the scandal.

Typical left coast scandal. The governor used taxpayer dollars to fund his babe's (bogus?) green company. To top it off the new governor's claim to fame is that she is bisexual. What does that say about her alleged heterosexual relationship with her husband? Is it still adultery when a woman cheats on her husband with another woman? Will the voters keep her in office? There must be something in the water in Oregon.
