this is sickening of the right wing swamp characters. First trump says Christie had to know about the illegal activities so what does trump do bring Christie into his campaign.
Next Christie wants a special prosecutor on Clinton for the pay for play donations to the foundation that she made no money from. , but now says it is not appropriate for a special prosecutor for trump.
How do you right wingers live with your hypocrisy, do you break a mirror defending this putrid swamp of the swamps every day.

William E. Baroni Jr., 45, the former deputy executive director of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, was sentenced to 24 months in prison, and Bridget Anne Kelly, 44, Christie’s former deputy chief of staff, was sentenced to 18 months. “Time for some traffic problems in Fort Lee,” Kelly wrote in one infamous email, setting in motion five days of gridlock that slowed emergency vehicles from getting dying patients to hospitals, buses from getting kids to school and commuters from getting to work. |
Quote: | The seven-week trial for Baroni and Kelly last fall showcased just how fixated Christie and his operation were on laying the groundwork for his 2016 campaign. It also shined a light on a with-us-or-against-us culture inside the governor’s office. One of the prosecution’s key witnesses said under oath that he told the governor about the bridge conspiracy during a 9/11 memorial service. He testified that Christie laughed when informed of the plot. (Christie denies this.)
Trump himself, not long before Christie endorsed him, said it is inconceivable that the governor was out of the loop: “He totally knew about it!” |
Quote: | Last summer, Christie called for a special prosecutor to investigate Hillary Clinton: “We must get to the bottom of what looks like a pay to play scheme,” he said in a statement distributed by the Trump campaign. “Unfortunately, the only appropriate action for our compromised Attorney General is to appoint a truly impartial Special Prosecutor. … Our system of justice deserves nothing less.”
Now that Trump is the one potentially in jeopardy, Christie has completely changed his tune: "When a special prosecutor gets involved, the thing gets completely out of control," Christie said on CNN last month, rejecting GOP Rep. Darrell Issa’s call for one. “That doesn’t serve anybody’s purposes. We have a lot of important problems to deal with in this country. I’m not saying that’s not one of them. But I believe the Justice Department can handle it.”

Christie: Trump is surrounded by ‘amateurs, grifters, weaklings, felons’
Quote: | According to excerpts of his book obtained by Axios, Chris Christie writes that Trump has a "revolving door of deeply flawed individuals amateurs, grifters, weaklings, convicted and unconvicted felons who were hustled into jobs they were never suited for, sometimes seemingly without so much as a background check via Google or Wikipedia." |

THE BEAT WITH ARI
Newly freed Bridgegate defendant Bill Baroni says Chris Christie knew about bridge closing
Quote: | In an exclusive interview, former Chris Christie appointee Bill Baroni speaks out about his former boss’s role in the explosive Bridgegate scandal. Baroni says Christie knew about the infamous revenge plot that got two of his appointees convicted of crimes – which were then overturned in an unanimous Supreme Court ruling in May 2020. This newsmaking interview is Baroni’s first since the high court decision and since leaving prison, and he discusses the scandal; his own regret over his actions; the veracity of allegations against Christie by another aide; Christie’s statements blaming the plot on Baroni and others; and prison reform with MSNBC’s Ari Melber, who reports on the Supreme Court ruling that the plot was not a property fraud crime, while noting the Court also found the plot was “deceptive, corrupt and an abuse of power.” |
