Breaking News!

CHIEF CLERK OF THE
HOUSE OF DELEGATES DECLARED
"FUGITIVE FROM JUSTICE"

FBI Continues Nationwide Search

Judge "Concerned;" Postpones Case to Jan. 4

A Carroll County judge postponed a legal challenge to the Democratic General Assembly's historic tax increase today, after process servers and the FBI were unable to locate a star witness, Maryland House of Delegates Chief Clerk Mary Monahan. Judge Thomas Stansfield halted the proceedings until January 4, calling Monahan's potential testimony "absolutely essential," and having "great bearing" on the case.

Monahan is believed to be evading a legal deposition that would potentially reveal illegal actions by the Democratic leadership of the General Assembly during November's Special Session, according to news accounts. These actions regarding House procedures, if confirmed, would be in violation of the Maryland Constitution. The suit also calls for the historic, regressive Democratic tax increases to be voided.

Plaintiffs' attorney Irwin Kramer spoke to reporters after the hearing, according to The Examiner.

"It is not a minor technicality when the chief clerk of the Maryland House of Delegates flees the jurisdiction after losing a motion to block that deposition in an effort to deprive my clients, the defense and all of the taxpayers of Maryland information about what the legislature did," Kramer said.

Here we go again. More Democratic partisan theatrics, extreme hubris, and a lack of respect for citizens and the law. Is this the way you want to be represented not only to Maryland but to the entire country? We need new leadership that will put time and energy not on games for personal and political gain, but rather on the serious issues that have been evaded for decades in Annapolis and Rockville.
