I live in ruby-red NY-27, where we were “represented” (using the term very loosely) by the corrupt Chris Collins, who committed felonious insider trading literally on the White House lawn, on camera. He’s now fighting hard to stay out of prison, citing COVID19, which apparently only matters for rich white guys.
He was replaced by Chris Jacobs (R: money), another rich white guy. I had contacted his office to inquire about how he intended to vote on the U.S. Postal Service rescue bill. Of course I got no response.
Well, it turns out Mr. Jacobs has successfully pulled off a double back flip corrupt vote. He asserted to reporters that, sure thing, he stands with his rural constituents and supports the U.S.P.S.
Funny thing, though. When the vote was tabulated, Mr. Jacobs voted to kill the bill to rescue the U.S.P.S. from DeJoy’s sabotage.
Jacob’s excuse: he states he voted no by mistake. I must have gotten distracted.
So. Screwing your own constituents by voting to perpetuate Trump’s sabotage of the Postal Service; then insulting their intelligence by claiming it was all a mistake, you really meant to vote the other way.
Excellent. Slither back under the rock you crawled out from, Chris.
