26. Pretty high, but it is still nice to watch Republicans sweat for a while first.

This is the closest to any kind of hope for justice a Democrat from NC will ever get. I'm still going to enjoy watching the FBI hassle him for a while until he gets away with it. I hope he at least loses more money than he gained by his insider trading. I hope at least that much happens. Still, just to see the FBI go after him at all is more than I thought I would ever get to see. I want to see them go after as many NC Republicans, especially, as possible. It would be the only way NC Republicans ever have to answer for their corruption. Nobody in this state will do anything to them, see? So, we don't stand a chance of seeing anything done to them unless the feds go after them. So, it'll be fun while it lasts at least.

I just woke up. This is the first story I saw. I wanna watch him squirm, but what I really wish I could see is him and more Republicans in an orange jumpsuit and handcuffs.
