$51K for Online Psychic ???



I have tried to shy away from the political sphere since things have quieted down in here, HOWEVER... this item out of Texas has me laughing !!! A Texas lawmaker apparently spent more than $51,000 of her own money on an online psychic, showed up for work at the Capitol impaired by medication and hid a cellphone from investigators, ( Tried to pull a Hillary Clinton) prosecutors allege in a court filing this week.



Rep. Dawnna Dukes is due to face misdemeanor corruption charges at an Oct. 16 trial. She is accused of giving a taxpayer-funded raise to a legislative aide to cover gas money for shuttling her daughter back and forth from school.



The Travis County district attorney's office alleges in the filing that Dukes paid for the psychic from December 2014 to January 2016, totaling nearly $1,000 a week. She apparently used her own money for the payments; the court document doesn't indicate public funds were used. (She could use $1000 for a psychic but couldn't pay a few bucks for someone to drive her child to school?)



Prosecutors are still pursuing a felony case against the lawmaker, the American-Statesman reported. The DA's office last week placed 13 felony charges against Dukes on hold after a legislative official gave conflicting information about reimbursement vouchers that Dukes is alleged to have falsified in 2013 and 2014 for days she did not travel to the Capitol. In addition, the filing says Dukes was absent for roll call 65 percent of the time during the 2017 legislative regular session, and 36 percent of the time in the special session.



Authorities contend she was noticeably impaired on one occasion while performing legislative duties at the Capitol. She showed up late to a House appropriations committee hearing on March 29 and at one point said, "I know I'm talking a lot. I'm full of morphine and will be headed out of here soon." Dukes previously had announced plans to resign, citing years long medical concerns. But she reneged in January and was sworn in for her 12th term.



I am NOT mentioning which party she belongs to..... I'll leave it up to you to guess.....

She could have set it up with a Taxi Company to send a designated driver every morning to the house to see to it her child was driven safely to school.

This "lady" has some issues that need to be addressed.

I'd be circulating an impeachment petition if I was from her district

13 felony charges against Dukes on hold after a discrepancy arose.... They didn't evaporate... just some clarifications before proceeding

Some things are often best not said...... however.... I have to ask.. What is she teaching her child? and doesn't the citizens of her district deserve better representation?

The bith neds to be taken out and given the boot then her property seized, sold at auction with the proceeds given to the state as an example of what cheating the people of the state will get you.
