I don’t want to totally give it away but basically government contracts for services were funneled to Hogan’s friends and contacts, which I get, is sometimes how things are done, but the new contractors have completely failed and it is impacting government services in such a way that lots of money is being lost, mishandled, etc., and funds that were essentially supposed to go to poor people are just… disappearing, going to the wrong individuals, etc.

This is your claim? You think this is somehow a Hogan-specific thing only in the state of Maryland? This is basically the normal functioning of state and local government in this area.

Martin O’Malley accepted hundreds of thousands in “speaking fees” while he was governor from a company with state contracts. You might also want to google “Muriel Bowser+Ft Myer Construction”.

Unless there is serious fraud, like the companies not delivering, or you have evidence that Hogan himself did something unethical like order contract award over legal advice that the contracts were illegal under state law, you most likely have a nothingburger that no one will be interested in.

This is exactly what I am alleging. The company has just failed in a very very serious and obvious way.

Do you remember the company that got the contract to build Trump's wall, and why they got the contract, and what happened to those walls? If nothing came of that, why do you suppose what's happening here is worse?

I'm not saying I support corruption, just that these types of things aren't considered that big of a deal. Unfortunately, but reality.

The difference is that the new company was contracted to replace a pre-existing government function that is very necessary, and just hasn’t performed the contract. The “replacement” wasn’t really needed and doesn’t work. It’s been under audit for awhile and I think should be made public. I also think a smart journalist could find more here.

OP’s nothingburger is a giant whopping nothingburger.

You should be prepared and understand that this will more likely lead to significant scrutiny about your husband’s behavior while employed by the state.

Before taking any action, you should be sure that he has not himself violated any laws or policies or if whether he could be claimed to be a party to the accusations that he wishes to make.

What’s interesting to me is that if he was a long time state employee and predated Hogam, that this supposed unstated allegation would somehow be the first questionable issue that he encountered that he found troubling during his employment. Particularly when the previous governor was O’Malley.

My husband recently left the MD state government after about a decade of service and some of the shenanigans that the Hogan administration pulled were beyond reason. Now there are consequences to public services that I believe are clear and incontrovertible evidence of an unacceptable level of corruption.

I don’t think that Maryland voters should vote for the Senate without understanding the depth of rot in the Hogan administration. I have been pleading with my husband to file a complaint with the Office of the Inspector General at the least, but I believe that the media would also have a field day with what is going on. All it would require is a few FOIA requests and a platform. My question is… how would I alert anyone in the media? What should I say?
