The powerful Republican speaker of the Ohio House and four associates were arrested Tuesday in a $60 million federal bribery case connected to a taxpayer-funded bailout of Ohio’s two nuclear power plants.

Hours after FBI agents raided Speaker Larry Householder’s farm, U.S. Attorney David DeVillers described the ploy as likely the largest bribery and money-laundering scheme that had "ever been perpetrated against the people of the state of Ohio.”

    Say isn't John Kasich governor of Ohio? Seems odd that he wasn't involved

    Will the speech at the Dem Convention save him?

    GOP kicked him out. Of course the Rats and Biden have welcomed both him and Kasich into their party and are welcoming their support.

    Like the rest of our party? Really? Republicans actually self-censure. Dems not so much. Hell, you are going to nominate bought and paid for Slo Joe.

    And yet he isn't supporting my party. He is supporting your party and your candidate. Btw, nice use of the ignorance defense. You've never heard of him and yet you couldn't run here fast enough to post about him. What's it like always having your head up your ass IC? Do you ever get anything right?
