Since our Gov was cleared have we heard a peep out of Whizzy and Whiney? They were constantly in the news during the failed witch hunt and now not a peep out of either one of them on anything.

Fulop's 'time for some traffic jams at the Holland Tunnel' was stymied by his Police Chief, but he did 'punish' the Port Authority by a bogus 'safety' checkpoint for trucks leaving the Global Marine facility near the Bayonne border. It was said the be a 'routine' checkpoint, but there hasn't been another since . . .

I was unaware of Fulop's move at the Holland Tunnel. I would feel the same way about that as I do about what happened at the GW Bridge. So there is your outrage. You just proved my point though. You clearly do not care about anything that doesn't directly impact you. Your biggest concern is for the wasted tax dollars and not the lives of your fellow NJ residents. Why don't you show a little compassion for once.
And for the record, I am not a Fulop supporter. I think he is full of shite.

Total nothingburger, as far as to Governor Christie's non-involvement. Not a shred of evidence was shown to tie Christie to the local approach lane closures, other than the 'word' of those convicted of being guilty of the shutdown. The Star Ledger, njcom, and Advance Media all took a hit for driving this non-story relentlessly.

I guess delayed emergency response times, double and sometime triple the normal response time, is no big deal? How would you feel if you needed paramedics to come give you life saving help, or if your house was on fire, or you were being assaulted by someone and the emergency response took double or triple the amount of time to get to you? Is that a "nothing berger"? If your friends or family died because of a couple closed lanes, would you still think it was no big deal? Or, do you only care about something if it directly impacts you? Get some perspective on your life and have the ability to put yourself in someone else's shoes.

40 pages on JC List, and it's all over. The mastermind gets probation. The two co-conspirators likely to get a slap on the wrist. Christie totally innocent. Star Ledger Editorial Board disgraced.

Unlike Hillary, our Governor didn't destroy 30,000 incriminating emails-in fact, he handed over every single email, text, paper communication to both State and Federal prosecutors, as well as the dog and pony Whizzy and Whiney 'investigators'.
And even Obama's Justice Department could find no evidence connecting our Governor to the traffic jam on the GWBridge access road. If our Governor's innocence is good enough for President Obama and AG's Holder and Lynch it should be good enough for us. In any case, he's still our Governor-I remember some here were demanding a recall-how'd that work out?

Final takeaway-after umpteem millions spent by NJ and Federal prosecutors, no connection was ever established that tied Governor Christie to the traffic jam on the approach road to the GW Bridge.

Christie aide gets two years in prison for role in Bridgegate scandal
By Kaja Whitehouse and Bruce Golding March 29, 2017 | 12:22pm | Updated Cristie aide gets two years in prison for role in Bridgegate scandal Chris Christie won't face criminal charges in Bridgegate scandal Former Port Authority exec Bill Baroni was sentenced Wednesday to two years in the slammer for his role in the ?Bridgegate? scandal that scuttled the presidential aspirations of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. Baroni, a Christie appointee to the bistate transit agency, and Bridget Kelly, a former top aide to the embattled governor, were convicted last year of scheming to close approach lanes to the George Washington Bridge in a political revenge plot that snarled rush-hour traffic for nearly a week in September 2013. Kelly faces sentencing Wednesday afternoon. Earlier this week, prosecutors asked Newark federal Judge Susan Wigenton to sentence Baroni and Kelly ?at the bottom or modestly below? guidelines of 37 to 46 months behind bars. Key testimony against Baroni and Kelly came from cooperating witness David Wildstein, another Christie appointee to the Port Authority, who admitted conspiring with them to ?punish? Democratic Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich for refusing to endorse the Republican governor?s 2013 re-election bid. Wildstein also testified that Christie laughed while discussing the snarled traffic with him and Baroni during a Sept. 11 memorial ceremony at Ground Zero. Under terms of his plea deal, Wildstein agreed to spend up to 27 months in prison. His sentencing hasn?t been scheduled. In 2015, Christie kicked off an unsuccessful campaign for the White House and later became the first failed GOP candidate to endorse now-President Donald Trump, who said on the stump that Christie ?totally knew? about the lane-closure scheme. Christie publicly blamed the scandal as the reason he was passed over as Trump?s pick for vice president, and he also got shut out of a spot in the president?s cabinet. Poll results released Monday put Christie?s approval rating at a dismal 20 percent, with 72 percent of registered voters saying they disapproved of the job he?s doing. The Fairleigh Dickinson University PublicMind survey marked a slight improvement over the 17 percent Christie notched in a January poll by Quinnipiac University. That finding tied him for the lowest-ever job approval rating with former Gov.s Brendan Byrne and Jim Florio, whose popularity plummeted for enacting and hiking state taxes, respectively. http://nypost.com/2017/03/29/christie ... le-in-bridgegate-scandal/

Looks like Christie finally landed a job in the Trump Administration!
Christie to take on role in Trump's fight against obesity in the heartland: report 3/29/2017 By Rebecca Savransky Christie to take on role in Trump's fight against the obesity epidemic in the heartland: report Provided by The Hill. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie will take on a role in President Trump's White House to combat the country's obesity epidemic, ABC News reported, citing White House officials. A draft order, obtained by Politico, talks about forming a commission to make recommendations related to treatment of obesity and promoting a healthy, low fat diet in the heartland. The president rarely spoke about tackling the country's obesity epidemic during his campaign. During the hectic campaigning candidate Trump subsisted mostly on fast food - which included his favorites - McDonalds and KFC. Trump told Anderson Cooper in February 2016 that McDonald's was "great stuff" during a Republican presidential town hall. A source in the White House speaking off the record said that it was an ideal fit - having Christie to head up the new commission. "Christie is a big man. He's been facing a struggle with obesity for much of his adult life. I can't think of anyone else that could fill the large role that this job requires." The president told The Wall Street Journal during a past interview that "at some point, we're going to do something with Chris that will have something to do with what he know best." Last month, the New Jersey governor dined with the president at the White House, where they discussed the country's obesity epidemic. Mr. Christie started the meal with an appetizer of foie gras followed by broccoli soup, stuffed hazelnut mushroom, and sweet potato with Parmesan. For his first entry he had lobster burger with Gruyere and Green Chili Mayonnaise, followed by orange glazed duck breast for the second entree, and for dessert assorted tropical fruit and aged cheese. http://www.politico.com/story/2017/03 ... e-white-house-job-2346632

Some JC taxpayers could see a perfect storm ahead-a tax and spend Governor like Murphy, a Legislature that is determined to make Jersey City pay (at least part of) its fair share of school funding, and a reval that Fulop and others have been putting off. And none of it will be on Governor Christie, the Democrats will own it 100%.

My point is be careful what you wish for. Christie just made a full pension contribution. Our next Gov will be much worse. They will raise taxes more than CC. And it's spelt O-BLAME-A!

Let's hope there's a job offer!
http://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf/ ... 2box_nj-homepage-featured By Brent Johnson | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com Email the author | Follow on Twitter on February 13, 2017 at 10:31 AM, updated February 13, 2017 at 1:03 PM TRENTON -- Gov. Chris Christie is scheduled to have a lunch meeting with President Donald Trump in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday, two sources with knowledge of the situation told NJ Advance Media. The meeting comes as speculation intensifies that Trump has grown unhappy with several members of his inner circle and their performance in the first month of the administration. One source said Trump spoke to Christie, a fellow Republican and longtime friend and confidant, via phone last week and invited him to lunch. He and the New Jersey governor are expected to discuss a broad range of topics, according to the sources, who requested anonymity to talk candidly about the meeting...

From nj.com -
Christie will say goodbye to N.J., hello to Trump post, ex-governors predict http://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf/ ... tml#incart_river_home_pop I think the ex-governors are just being polite. And CNN is pushing the popular belief that it's all about Jared - Kushner vs. Christie: The nasty Trump transition fight that goes back a decade http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/16/politic ... chris-christie/index.html And Politico says he still has a shot to head up Homeland Security http://www.politico.com/blogs/donald- ... -selections-so-far-231444 I still believe it was Christie's public response to the release of the hot mic tape is the primary reason that he was booted from the inner circle. By the way, I'm no fan of Christie but I would have preferred him over Trump. Christie may behave like a prick at times but I'd trust him with the nuclear codes. Trump on the other hand...

Monroe, perhaps? It's pretty obvious that Christie is done. Kushner has almost certainly torched Christie in DC/Trump Tower, and he's reviled in NJ. He'll have to slink off to Asbury Park, beg The Boss for forgiveness, and try to revive his career in a few years.
