The Democrat candidate for governor of Florida may have just lost. According to Politico, there is overwhelming evidence that Andrew Gillum accepted bribes from an undercover FBI agent investigating corruption in Gillum's city administration. Gillum himself took free tickets to Broadway shows and a trip to Costa Rica for himself and his wife. To put it mildly, this is very illegal.
But it gets worse. At the Florida debate the other night, Republican Ron DeSantis asked Gillum about the free tickets and the trip to Costa Rica. Gillum denied everything. Now Politico, of all places, has come forward with the proof that Gillum lied. Politico is hardly a right-wing web site. It is generally part of the mainstream media with a strong bias in favor of the Democrats. If Politico is publishing this evidence, you can be certain that it is the truth.
The total value of what Gillum took in these two bribes is about ten thousand dollars. One has to wonder how much more there could be once a full investigation is done.
Gillum is toast.
