CORRUPTION: ANOTHER POLITICIAN BITES THE DUST

We've all known for a very long time that politicians are generally born corrupt. The cesspool that is New York politics is continuing true to form as Dean Skelos (R), leader of the New York State Senate, and his son have been arrested on corruption charges. 

PATRIOT UPDATE is reporting the pair faces federal charges for fraud, bribe solicitation, and extortion. The charges against them were detailed in a six-count criminal complaint filed in United States District Court in Manhattan that details a five-year scheme to “monetize” the senator’s official position by extorting payments through a Long Island-based real estate developer and from an Arizona environmental company, with the expectation that the money paid to Adam Skelos,  nearly $220,000 in total, would influence his father’s actions.

Now is the time for all good Americans to come to the aid of their country and out a stop to "business as usual" in state houses across the country.
