Governor Greitens was a Democrat until 2015. How odd that he became a republican about the same time as the incident.

My guess is that IF Fox Noise reports on this at all, they will identify him with a D next to his name.

“I called for him to step down three weeks ago because I thought this was going to happen. … My understanding was he was led off in handcuffs and that’s not a good sign for our executive of the state of Missouri,” Walker said. “He should resign.”

Statement from law firm defending Greitens in criminal investigation

“In forty years of public and private practice, I have never seen anything like this. The charges against my client are baseless and unfounded. My client is absolutely innocent. We will be filing a motion to dismiss.” – Edward L. Dowd, Jr.


Don't worry Governor you are entitled to a fair trial before a jury of your peers.

(From St. Louis Today.com)

"Missouri's Lieutenant Governor Wants A Personal Driver"
Lt. Governor Mike Parson is requesting an additional $50,000 in his office budget for a chauffeur.

- Aug. 4, 2017
"When it comes to accepting gifts from lobbyists, Missouri's Lieutenant Governor stands alone.
Unlike other statewide officials, Lt. Gov. Mike Parson accepts freebies from the platoon of lobbyists that patrol the Capital corridors, records show."

(Sorry, I'm unable to post direct links to the above 2 articles, but they can be easily found by doing a Google search of Mike Parson)
