But the announcement from Philadelphia Rep. Bob Brady, boss of Philadelphia’s Democratic patronage machine, is seismic — and possibly a step ahead of a criminal indictment.

This is good for Philadelphia, because not only are we still paying for patronage employees, we’re also paying for people to actually show up and do their jobs for them.

Gowdy helped Nunes’ staff write the Nunes Memo.
He’s caught and so he bailed.
Brady’s a crooked politician.
Republican Sean Duffy from Wisconsin is a right wing loudmouth whose Fascist wife, Rachel Campos-Duffy, works for FOX.
Trump’s State of the Uniom TV audience was down 5% from last year.
His first address was lower then Obama’s, Bush’s and Clinton’s.
