I’m pretty sure it’s racist to pursue political corruption in Puerto Rico.

Why doesn’t PR open its borders to refugees or even white liberals? You would think they would be open to inclusion and diversity but all I ever hear out of PR pols is hatred for America.

Let’s all recite the Puerto Rican Politicians Pledge.....

“It’s never so screwed up that we can’t steal a little more.”

officials illegally directed federal funding to politically connected contractors

Obviously these Federal Prosecutors have never heard of California or Los Angeles where this is Standard Practice and done openly

Rep. Raúl M. Grijalva (D-Ariz.), chairman of the Natural Resources Committee that oversees Puerto Rico

Take a look at their website

Natural Resources Committee

Looks like a lefty operation. I bet an audit of these SOBs would expose numerous crimes.

Ignorance on parade!
Unintentional mixed-metaphor ALERT!

A relative audits a company down there and he says the whole island is corrupt and the “audit” is nothing but a joke.

——We’ve crossed that crucible now,” ——

The intended statement was we’ve crossed that Rubicon

I have a local friend whose family is from Puerto Rico and where he still has relatives & visits there often enough each year. On more than one occasion he has said Puerto Rico’s biggest problem is corruption. We may not always agree on U.S, domestic politics, but that hasn’t changed how he views what is wrong in Puerto Rico.

It's one thing to blame Trump for racism for not giving more support to PR.

But when you have far-Left Raúl M. Grijalva coming down hard on PR, you know this runs deeper than the headlines.

Anybody who didn't have their heads up their arses over the last decade, could tell you without investigating that the democRATS were the problem in PR.

I hope they nail that Leftie mayor of San Juan too. It's impossible for her not to be involved in all of this graft and corruption going on in PR.

I sometimes wonder if there is anyone more corrupt in the US Congress than Progressive Caucus Chair Congressman Raúl Grijalva.

Governor was formerly a Democrat, is now what they call a New Progressive. Says it all.

We wouldn’t be seeing this if Hillary was president. Hillary would just get a payment.
