Nothing like noticing a scab, picking at it and once it is torn off finding that you are looking into a mirror…

Yet another (valid) reason for R’s to think this was all a political attack.

He resigns, and all his problems go away.

Jesus. Missouri government to the people of Missouri. Justice for me, not for thee.

The back room deal has been executed: Greitens resigns, all investigations into his dirty dealing disappear. The irony is that if Greitens hadn’t trashed the Republican legislators when he first took office they would have stonewalled this investigation and he’d still be governor.

I hope some civic-minded whistle-blower, or just an especially disgruntled employee, will get the info to an enterprising investigative reporter.

They’re hoping people have short memories and forget about the scandal before the November elections.

Which, sadly, might work.

I suspect this dark money came from overseas.

Greitens had presidential ambitions. He may be a real-life Manchurian candidate.

The maggots spontaneously generated within the carcass. There was no outside influence.

Exactly wrong!

This discovery needs to be done to prevent the next (GOP) Governor from “pulling a Greitens”!

Missouri needs more Democrats in the state to create stricter laws to police the criminals they elect!

So…this was the deal or they are turning a blind eye. Either way. This should have come out.

Greitens fights scandalous sex charges for months, but one hour after a Court says ‘show us the money’, he bails. Yep – pay no attention to the Dark Money behind the curtain.
