Missouri Democratic Party Chairman: Greitens is the most corrupt of them all

(From the Missouri Democratic Party)

Facing a new lawsuit from an open government organization for “allegedly breaking state public records laws,” Governor Eric Greitens is entering today’s first day of the 2018 Missouri state legislative session entangled in even more legal trouble and corruption.

According to the Kansas City Star, “The Sunshine Project which aims to ‘hold the government responsible for turning over public records,’” has filed a lawsuit accusing “Gov. Eric Greitens and his staff of engaging in an ongoing conspiracy to violate Missouri’s open records laws.”

“Corrupt insiders and corrupt politicians: Instead of weeding them out like he promised, Eric Greitens has become the most corrupt of them all. There’s no doubt questions about his never-ending scandals will linger throughout this year’s legislative session.”
MISSOURI DEMOCRATIC PARTY CHAIR STEPHEN WEBBER

Despite promising to clean up corruption in Jefferson City, this is only the latest in a long list of scandals that have lingered over the Governor’s mansion during Eric Greitens’ first year in office. 

Among other controversies, Eric Greitens was fined for violating Missouri campaign ethics law. He also created his own dark money group to hide who is influencing his agenda. The non-stop ethical questions about dark money led a bipartisan group of state Senators to call for a legislative investigation into Greitens.

Try investigating him for fraud. Funny how money raised by his charity ended up financing his campaign.
