Sometimes you just can't ignore current events and when that happens Johnny loves using music to comment on them. Let's get to the news:
Who's next? Not pictured are two prime candidates; Gorka? Miller? Both good choices. Anyway as any kind of publication we'd be remiss not to pile on the thimble-headed gherkin in charge and lead things off tonight fittingly with Queen and 'Another One Bites the Dust'
La Vern Webb-Washington come on down, you're the next convict in Jersey City Cash Grab with your host Solomon Dwek. Washington who lost in the Ward F election last year was sentenced to a year and a day in the pokey for accepting dirty money from Dwek totaling $15,000.
Washington told Judge Jose Linares she didn't realize she was breaking the law until she saw herself on the FBI tapes taking money from Dwek.
Uh huh.
Judge Linares wasn't buying those magic beans either and tacked on the extra day so Washington would have to do some jail time instead of a sentence of one year which would have put her in a halfway house.
Washington is the latest in a long line of Jersey City, Hoboken and Hudson County elected officials and elected official wannabes to be convicted or plead guilty. The FBI is batting a thousand on their cases which makes the holdouts like Mariano Vega all the more amusing because it doesn't take Nostradamus to see where these cases wind up.
