    Federal prosecutors have unsealed an indictment charging North Carolina State Republican Party Chairman Robin Hayes and three associates in an alleged bribery scheme involving campaign contributions to the state insurance commissioner.

    Hayes, along with political and business figures Greg Lindberg, John Gray and John Palermo, made initial appearances in US District Court in Charlotte Tuesday.
    "The indictment unsealed today outlines a brazen bribery scheme in which Greg Lindberg and his co-conspirators allegedly offered hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions in exchange for official action that would benefit Lindberg's business interests," Brian Benczkowski, the assistant attorney general of the Justice Department's criminal division, said in a news release.

    Republican lawmakers ask judge to destroy smoking gun do ents proving GOP’s white supremacy

    Republicans on Monday sought a court order to block damning do ents from being used against them in a lawsuit.

    “North Carolina Republican lawmakers on Monday asked a court to make sure the files of the now-deceased GOP strategist Tom Hofeller are destroyed, or at least kept secret, instead of being used in a high-profile gerrymandering lawsuit,”

    the lawyers for the legislative leaders responded by not only requesting that the files be kept secret, but also by suggesting that

    the lawyers for their opponents could be removed from the case

    as a punishment for looking at the files,”

    “Common Cause has said in a different court case that

    Hofeller’s files show the Trump administration made false statements about why it wants to put a question regarding citizenship on the 2020 Census,”

    Will the oligarchy's s allow or punt on partisan gerrymandering?
