Shocking. Bad people do bad things and get away with it, again.

The second worst thing is how the focused on the expense of the investigation.

The cost isn't relevant. It's CRITICAL that political officials be investigated. Trying to sour the public on investigating political crimes by appealing to fiscal responsibility is ethically bankrupt

Typical smokescreen by the people most afraid of a moral reckoning.

Watch who's complaining about the cost of consolidated services - usually the most cost-effective - and see, not the price tag, but what they're afraid it'll get us. Usually it's healthcare, schools, and cops; guess why that's a problem.

100%. That infuriated me when I read it. That is the result of worshiping money over all else, aka the current state of our capitalist hellscape.

Excellently stated, thank you.

When this stuff gets discovered they should be immediately ripped from office. Especially if the amount of fraudulent votes means they would not have won

It makes sense why conservatives were screaming election fraud the last few years, they are just projecting again and have been stealing primary and leadership races internally for years.
