Late breaking from NorthJersey.com, Save Jerseyans:

And she refuses to turn over documents in response to a subpoena issued by a state legislative panel that is conducting its own investigation.
“I’m going to proceed in this matter deliberately to ensure my client’s rights are fully protected,” Critchley said.

@Cathy Fair enough!
ANY governor (particularly in the northeast) who can’t screw over some tin-horn mayor and close four lanes of a bridge for payback and not get caught just isn’t smart enough or clever enough to be president….Putin will make him stand in a corner and face the wall…
@Kathy-You have to remember Matt is in his glory with this whole ordeal.
