Given ALL that has happened with our Governor and the FBI investigation the GOP waited until the VERY DAY the Democrats reorganized to make their BOLD white-washing support for THEIR Governor in a gaslighting and feeble attempt to counter the Democrats coming-out party figuratively. Who does the GOP think they are fooling because why didn’t the GOP issue their statement of support for the Governor when the FBI raids first happened? A politically trained eye and even the average citizen can see the Governor and his team are trying to strategize on how to deal with the Democrats by making their ridiculous statement inferring the Governor is innocent of EVERYTHING on the same day they KNEW the Democrats would be on the front page — you can fool some people some of the time but you can’t fool all the people all the time GOP and this time you didn’t fool anyone. One would have to be a FOOL to think the Governor hasn’t done anything wrong and to infer the Governor is totally innocent of everything before the investigations are over is an INSULT to the intelligence of the People who have ALREADY seen proof of guilt — DUH!

Whitewashing the Governor’s situation with a gaslighting press release won’t remove the factual documentation of the Governor misusing CNMI funds for personal use which IS an Impeachable offense — it’s called FRAUD and it’s also a CRIME toooooo! Whitewashing the Governor won’t remove the political termites who were feeding off of IPI with consulting contracts to help the Governor and his Party. Whitewashing the Governor is not going to remove the stink of corruption that has already passed the “probable cause” test with a Local Judge who approved the RICO investigation search warrants that will help to PROVE the Governor is a CRIMINAL! Whitewashing the Governor won’t remove the STAIN of foreign investors interfering in our elections which violates Federal Law. You can’t whitewash away the misuse of OUR money proven publicly by Kandit news and the campaign contributions are clear violations of Federal law. So gaslighting to try and take away some of the attention from the Democrats in an attempt to whitewash the Governor is not going to work. In fact, the Governor is so dirty it may take some time at the Fed Hilton for him to clean himself up. And I wouldn’t wager against the Feds on this one mainly because it is such a high-profile case in which the Feds ALWAYS put their best effort forward in performing their due-diligence to make SURE they get a conviction.
The most horrifying, ridiculous and very scary thing about the GOP’s press release statement of support for the Governor is the implication that our Legislature is not going to do their job and perform their duties in an “IMPARTIAL” way in the best interest of justice to place checks on the Governor for balancing on behalf of the PEOPLE who hired them! Our GOP is just like the GOP on the mainland who are protecting #45 who doesn’t deserve the title of President but #45 is not facing a RICO indictment. The President of our GOP Party is talking to the People like WE are fools when he says that all the crimes hanging over the Governor head for violating Federal and CNMI laws are baseless, come-on man, We the People ARE NOT fools especially when a Federal Judge has ALREADY given the Governor’s culpability in crimes a high level of creditability!!! One can be assured with reasoning and common sense that a Federal Judge would only issue a search warrant on a sitting Governor when there is an abundance of compelling evidence of guilt.
EVERYONE who has the ability to read and have been following the events surrounding our Governor have to know that our Governor is already guilty of violating his office and CNMI laws and one can be relatively SURE the Feds are also going to show proof of our Governor breaking Federal Laws. The GOP president could have at least ask for “reserving opinions and condemnation of the Governor until the Feds and the Legislature’s investigation are over” but no he wants to try and whitewash everything with a gaslighting press release like we can’t see the termite infested Government feeding themselves and their families with a deadly mole of RICO corruption at the very top of our Government figuratively. The whitewashing of the Governor is not going to work plain and simple so the GOP Representatives & Senators need to step back and try to save their OWN jobs and their Party by holding the Governor accountable for violating the CNMI laws he SWORE to uphold, protect and preserve. This is your first and last warning as this is not the point in time and space to go out on a broken limb for a Governor who has already been caught, for True!
Thanks to Kandit News We the People are now constantly being bombarded with NEW manifestations of CRIME backed by PROOF about our Governor, IPI and the Dirty-30 as Kandit calls them and probably rightfully so. Kandit continues to rain down bombs of exposure in the CNMI some of which was partly known but not to the extent that Kandit is exposing with their GREAT investigative reporting. I can bet that once the FBI are finished our political arena is going to look like a nuclear bomb landed on Capital Hill with the fallout literally exposing contamination throughout the CNMI figuratively.
Our Governor is using his emissaries in the Party to literally “gaslight” the entire issue of him facing a RICO investigation and the local crimes of misuse of OUR funds almost to the point that they act like the Governor’s alleged crimes don’t even exist — for TRUE. Readers need to know that: “Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation in which a person seeks to sow seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or in members of a targeted group, making them question their own memory, perception, or sanity. Using denial, misdirection, contradiction, and lying, gaslighting involves attempts to destabilize the victim (the people) and delegitimize the victim’s beliefs. Gaslighting instances may range from the denial of an act that it never occurred to the staging of bizarre events by the culprit with the intention of disorientating the victim (the people) and in this case it was the GOP Press Release to disorientate the People. The term originated from the 1938 Patrick Hamilton play Gas Light and its 1940 and 1944 film adaptations (both titled Gaslight), in which a character tries to make his wife believe that she has gone insane to cover his criminal activities.
So don’t pay any attention to the Whitewashing and Gaslighting by our Governor and the GOP unless you don’t mind being called a fool later on when the Feds and even our own Judicial System are finished with him. Thanks to the FBI for the dirty-thirty exposure and their RICO Investigation and to Kandit News for exposing an unbelievable amount of evidence that our Governor has been committing FRAUD just like I TOLD YOU SO on too many previous occasions long before the FBI raids. Now the IRS has gotten involve seizing nearly half-a-million dollars in association with the RICO case of the Governor and come January 30 the heat is going to be turned up even higher on our Governor. The signs continue to show up of how our Governor has been doing WRONG and thanks to Kandit we see new signs almost every day as we travel through the political nightmare the Governor has generated for ALL the People in the CNMI. So don’t believe the whitewashing and gaslighting because you could end up among those who think that they are really dreaming with all the allegations against the Governor being baseless when the nightmare we face is REAL and in your FACE — for TRUE! To be continued: One People One Direction!
