The FBI arrested a dozen public officials, including some mayors and a state assemblyman. Here is the link to the article:

FBI Makes Corruption Arrests In N.J. - News Story - WNBC | New York

Maybe this will be a start in cleaning up the corrupt politics in NJ.

They will need a really, really big bottle of "CORRUPT-AWAY" to clean up the mess. I guess it's a start.

Johnny Boy lives up the street from me, so if the FBI is going to continue the raids, I can point them in the right direction to the Hudson Tea Building.

Speaking of Corslime, does he realize that his drivers are still blowing through the streets of the Boken without any regard to the walking publics safety? As a car owner in the Mile Square City, I can attest that even 20 miles an hour on these streets is still way too fast because of all the people walking and crossing the street.

I am also trying to figure out if his dense drivers know that they have a whole parking lot reserved just for them across the street from the Guv'nas building? These ass clowns are still double parking all over the place turning a routine drive to Weehawken into a cluster F trying to get around them.

It's just scratching the surface. There will be many more indictments to come in the near future. Corruption here in NJ is a cancer which in my opinion is terminal. It goes from the local school boards and town councils right up the the governors office in Trenton. It's not even embarrassing anymore. It's disgusting. Who do I blame for it all? The residents of this state who continue to vote the same corrupt politicians into office year after year. We get the leadership we deserve. No sympathy from me.

"Today we witnessed another example of the disease that affects the state of New Jersey; the disease of public corruption that spread like wildfire from south to north," Christie said, adding that the arrests on Thursday "just scratch the surface of the corruption that goes on here." Chris Christie.

And to any of those who say "we get a lot for our taxes". We sure do.

But hey, we got good pizza and pork rolls.
