This #Bridgegate story is slowly beginning to gain some traction —— now in the New York Times. I don’t think there is any doubt at this point that this debacle was politically motivated. I just hope they can get the dirt to prove it was inspired by the asshat Christie.

Up until now, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) could claim some distance between his office and the scandal surrounding the George Washington Bridge. Yes, his administration apparently caused deliberate, dangerous, and paralyzing traffic last September. Yes, his administration closed lanes in secret, ignored Port Authority procedures, and crippled the community of Fort Lee. #Bridgegate

I’ve been watching the mess with #Bridgegate and the bully Chris Christie. (What else is on all the networks?) I’ve watched part of the “I-I-I-I” press conference where the bully whined about how it was all about how HE had been wronged. Bullshit. There is no way this guy didn’t know what was going on and I hope the cover up catches up to him. Unfortunately he will probably be our next President, that is the stupidity of the American voter. Update: After further thought I have to wonder why everyone is focused on the bully’s hope to be President instead of asking why he isn’t being impeached as Governor? A lot of lives were put at risk needlessly and he has done NOTHING to get to the bottom of it.

The byline this morning for the jerk Chris Christie ——

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie told a Chicago audience Tuesday he is disappointed by “what happened to me” in the so-called #Bridgegate scandal.

What happened to HIM? This statement alone ought to be enough to have this asshole impeached.

In 2013, four days of vehicular gridlock began near the George Washington Bridge when two of three approach lanes from Fort Lee, NJ, were blocked off; the traffic jam was later blamed on loyalists to New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie over the refusal of Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich to endorse Christie for re-election. (Two political insiders were convicted for their roles in the closure; a unanimous Supreme Court later threw out the convictions. Christie denied any prior knowledge of the lane closures, but the episode helped derail his 2016 presidential bid.) #Bridgegate
