*The lawyers hired by Gov. Chris Christie, R-N.J., to review a traffic-blocking scandal that has engulfed his administration conclude that the governor was not involved in a plot to create gridlock near a major bridge as part of a political retribution scheme A taxpayer-funded report released Thursday said the September lane closures in Fort Lee, N.J., the town at the base of the heavily traveled George Washington Bridge, were intended to target a local mayor. But there was no evidence found that it was because the mayor wouldn't endorse Christie. The report released by former federal prosecutor Randy Mastro relies on interviews with Christie and other officials in his administration and 250,000 documents, many of them emails and text messages...* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

I love the fact that Gibson Dunn is going to have to testify under oath and turn over all of its notes to the NJ legislative committee

(3,544 posts)3. What a joke this guy is.
Let's see. He pays 1 million NJ taxpayer dollars to hire a lawyer to support his cause and report his findings? Do we think it will reflect all the data? NO!! When Christie was asked if he agreed with the findings, he says Yes, I knew it when I hired him. Duh, yeah, YOU hired him. Would you hire a lawyer that didn't support your cause? Wake up people. It's a sham. What ever happened to an impartial panel investigating this? Gee, what a con man.
