Ugh. That guy is so widely disliked in this state that his election is a mystery.

GOP Michigan State Senator to female reporter: High school boys could 'have a lot of fun' with you
“A state senator is under fire Wednesday after telling a female reporter she should stick around at the Capitol because a group of high school students from an all boys school, touring the Capitol, could “have a lot of fun” with her.”

“Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey, R-Clarklake, said he views the situation “very seriously." Shirkey said he plans "to have a very intense and lengthy private conversation with the senator as soon as we're done with the session."

Petersen ran an adoption fraud scheme that promised pregnant women thousands of dollars to lure them from a Pacific Island nation to the U.S., where they were crammed into houses to wait to give birth, sometimes with little to no prenatal care in what prosecutors called a human smuggling case.”

Jesus - that is unconscionable. And the fcking hypocrisy should be staggering but given that it's a GOP politician it's sadly not - it's expected.

And Ducey’s administration has done nothing for these poor women.

“Officials made a big announcement about Petersen’s adoption fraud arrest. Patted themselves on the back.

So what did they do for the pregnant women at center of it all? Apparently nothing.”

Peterson has resigned. The Board of Supervisors had to suspend him without pay and threaten to remove him before he resigned.

By waiting until after the first of the month, Hunter was able to still collect one last paycheck (and probably his pension). He hasn’t been able to vote for months and hasn’t had any committee assignments in years.

“On New Year’s Eve, New York Assembly Minority Leader Brian Kolb, one of the most powerful Republicans in Albany, was arrested after he crashed his car into a ditch while allegedly driving under the influence.

According to the sworn affidavit of the AAA tow truck driver, Kolb was leaning on the still-running car, visibly intoxicated and apparently unable to stand up by himself, and cried “My wife was driving! You know how women drive.” Kolb later said that his wife “was up in the house” and admitted he had been the one driving.”
