Nope. Crooked pols is not a party exclusive.

Maybe Rangle, Waters and this clown can bunk together at Club Fed......

Geesh, Our IL State Senators get 2 per year they can give out, on the taxpayers.

You should see how they give them out, friends, family and DONORS.
Many don't live in their district as they are supposed to.
MANY MANY didn't make the minimum requirements to get into the school the grant is for (State school) but the Poli's push the colleges to let them in over quailified candidates.

So she isn't all that bad.

Although her claim to STUPIDITY just proves she's perfectly qualified for the position she's in.

As many of you know, I have very little use for modern Demokrats, however, I gotta say two things in support of Ms. Johnson.......

A. It wasn't taxpayers money, it was private money.

2. She promised to pay it all back by the end of the week.

Yep, she busted the rules, but, still, a far cry from Charlie Rangel or Cold Cash Jefferson.
