Hickenlooper guilty on ethics charges

[RblDiver]

I guess this isn't "gun legislation" per say, but still politics so put in this forum.

https://freebeacon.com/democrats/hickenlooper-guilty-on-ethics-charge

"The Colorado Independent Ethics Commission decided that Hickenlooper's flight on a campaign donor's private jet, as well as his attendance at a conference in Italy, violated the ban [on receiving gifts while in office], according to the Colorado Sun. Hickenlooper initially refused to appear at the hearing, prompting the condemnation of a federal judge and members of the commission."

So, not only did he violate the ban on getting gifts, he tried to just ignore the commission and not go, only doing so finally when held in contempt (first person in the state to get this dubious "honor").

The 'progressives' will still vote for him.

Despite his rhetoric decrying the influence of corporate money in politics, Hickenlooper's senatorial campaign has accepted more than $1 million in corporate donations, along with hundreds of thousands in donations from corporate-backed PACs.

I'm really surprised he was dismissed by leftists so early in the presidential campaign season.

Are politicians supposed to be ethical?

He was fined $2,750.

And how much did his taxpayer funded defense cost? $125,000 by last count.

What a joke.

I hope Gardner and the CO good old boys party run adverts that relentlessly hammer hickenlooper on his ethics and use of our money to defend his questionable choices that enriched himself at the cost to the citizens of CO.

For many decades politicians have seen themselves as the modern nobility and behave that way.

Those are the same people that chant,"Nobody is above the law!"
