Michael Bloomberg is going to spend $50 million this year
trying to get gun-control supporters to the polls. He’s so humble
about his efforts to treat people like children! He told

a God, when I get to heaven I’m not stopping to be interviewed. I
am heading straight in. I have earned my place in heaven. It’s not
even close.”- Former Bell, California, City Manager

massive corruption scandal where city officials were drawing out
exorbitant salaries and misappropriating public funds. This is on
top of a federal sentence of 33 months for tax fraud. - Edward Snowden’s former email provider, the now defunct
Lavabit,

bar any recall-related lawsuits from problems before it exited
