Democrat Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh is under investigation by the FBI for corruption, and could be resigning any moment. However, here’s her excuse for delaying. The Daily Caller reports:
Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh is not “lucid” enough to make the decision to resign due to poor health, according to her attorney Thursday.
Pugh’s attorney Steve Silverman said she could likely make the decision in the coming week, but she was disappointed at the thought of stepping away from her position, The Baltimore Sun reported Thursday.
“She just needs to be physically and mentally sound and lucid enough to make appropriate decisions,” Silverman said, according to The Associated Press.
Silverman added that Pugh met with a doctor at home Thursday and plans to have another appointment Friday.
One party cities like Baltimore will always slide towards corruption because voters do not hold their elected officials accountable. It’s time for a change.
why is it politicians who commit a crime are aloud to resign instead of going to jail like the rest of us?
Two things you can ALWAYS count on ..dems never apologize and RARELY resign ..
What kind of brain damaged people would vote for someone like this? Nevermind, I know, liberals. I hope she stays and paints the streets rainbow colors, takes Baltimore’s treasury gives it to the poor and sends them to Atlantic City, bans cars and buses from the city and turns the parks into tent cities.
The big problem with DemoRats………..they all…… are mentally sick !!
Why would Mayor Pugh resign when she can lay back doing nothing and still collect her over paid salary??? She needs to prosecuted!!! Fired and jailed!!!
The hell with resignation. Sounds like criminal prosecution if appropriate and very long overdue, which leaves open the following questions. What is going on in Baltimore, and why?
Another reason: to keep getting the salary. I wouldn’t be surprised if her “poor health” prevents her from _ever_ going back to work.
She’s under investigation. So it follows that she hasn’t been convicted of anything. Along those same lines, except these people have admitted wrong doing, in Texas 95,000 people were denied the right to vote by Texas officials who made up a lie in order to deny these folks their voting rights. Then they expunged them from voter lists.
Now the officials have fessed up to the feds that they concocted this ruse on purpose. But, they still have their jobs when they should be in prison. But they’re republicons, so I guess it’s all right to do what they did. Texas has GOT to be the most politically corrupt state in the union.
Wondering why the writer of this article hasn’t mentioned the Texas voter scandal? Just sayin’………
POSSIBLY, BECAUSE-YOU ARE WRONG!
Democratic Texas Mayor of Edinburg
and his wife charged with election fraud….The purge did not happen…no-one was denied a vote….Question should be how many illegally voted and how many were not citizens….if their names are flagged, they should have to prove their citizenship….voter fraud does exist…
CA. is the most corrupt state. the texas people probably were illegals. if anyone belongs in jail it would be Democrats.
What kind of crap are you spreading moron? NO one was denied voting rights but what they found out was they were illegally registered to vote being that they were ILLEGAL ALIENS and they also found 50+ thousand more in Pennsylvania if I recall correctly that were illegally registered. Also do you realize illegals steel our federal representation in congress due to the fact they are counted as general population in our census’s which determines the appropriation of our federal legislators. Meaning that a state such as California with at least 3 million illegals and more than likely twice that has 4 or more seats in congress than they legally should if they counted only CITIZENS which is Constitutional law.
If what James says is factually correct, he poses a good question.
It seems he is correct,
CA is very corrupt! Many illegals have been given driver licenses and therefore voting. Guess which way they vote? The majority vote for the party that gives them the most…that would the Dummyrats! And yes, the higher the population the more reps for congress.
The system really needs to be corrected, and ASAP!!!
