Senator Ted Stevens is indicted for corruption
It’s about time. Senator Stevens (R-AK) represents everything that is wrong with politicians. He is a corrupt, self-righteous politician who uses his influence and taxpayer money to enrich himself.
This indictment (and hopefully conviction) is good for the American people, and it’s good for the Republican Party, which needs a house cleaning. Here is the report from Reuters.
The U.S. Justice Department has scheduled a news conference for 1:20 p.m. to make an announcement “regarding a significant criminal matter.” The official said the news conference would announce the criminal charges against Stevens that have been returned by a federal grand jury in Washington, D.C.
