Last year at this time, Caleb Slater was making an unsuccessful run for US Senate out of the Syracuse region against incumbent Rachel May.
It shouldn't surprise anyone, then, to learn that Slater, a Republican, resorted to hiring local homeless people in his area to pretend they were donors to his campaign. The Albany Times-Union, in today's editions, exposed the scam, nine months after Slater's campaign ended in failure. According to the article, Slater paid homeless people, including a one-armed man, with less money than they were supposed to be donating, or gift cards, to get their votes. I don't know how homeless people can vote if they don't have a place of residence, but I'd guess Slater had that covered, too, for all the good that did him.
It's proof positive that today's GOP can't be bothered with facts & details if it affects their agendas.
Meanwhile, in Washington, "border czar" Tom Homan really stuck his foot in his mouth by claiming that president Trump has "no limits" to what he can do. Oh, yes, he does, dumbass.
Farron Cousins explains.
Making matters worse in DC, Attorney General Pam "Dumb" Bondi wants to charge an ordinary schlub with a felony just for tossing a sandwich at a government official, claiming the sandwich tosser used to work for the DOJ. Just watch. The boys from South Park may have just found their next target.
Even though the revelations are a year later than we'd have liked, Slater gets the Weasel ears for his scam. Hopefully, a copy of the article will have reached the desk of Letitia James, and, well, you know the rest........
