State of new york for defrauding state through his taxes. And he has been judged a rapist. You want to be perceived as credible.

Congressman, im not here to seems like an easy answer considering what i laid out. Im here to talk about the report and the work that went into it. You dont want to be associated with that guy again, do you . Im not here to offer opinions. Im here to talk about the work that went into the report.
