Republican; the party of pedophiles who upload child **** to Tumblr:
Matt Allibone, York Daily Record Published 11:22 p.m. ET Sept. 17, 2019
Sen. Mike Folmer
YORK, Pa. – A Pennsylvania state senator has been charged with possession of child pornography, according to the state attorney general’s office.
Republican state Sen. Mike Folmer, 63, represents parts of Lebanon, Dauphin and York counties.
According to a release from Attorney General Josh Shapiro's office, Folmer was arrested Tuesday night after images of child pornography were found on his phone when police searched his home after obtaining a warrant.
The investigation began after a tip reported that an individual had uploaded an image of child pornography to the social networking website Tumblr.
Folmer was charged with sexual abuse of children, possession of child pornography and criminal use of a communication facility, Shapiro said in the release.
“I will continue to say it – no one is above the law, no matter what position of power they hold,” Shapiro said. “I will continue to work to protect children and hold those who abuse them accountable.”
Folmer has yet to release a statement on the charges.
Bail was set at $25,000, but it was not immediately clear if Folmer had posted it, the attorney general’s office said.
A native of Lebanon, Folmer was first elected to the Pennsylvania senate in 2006 and was re-elected to his fourth term in November.

I always suspected that there was some hidden link between Brainey and pony-****.
To be clear, this is the actual limit of what is tolerable at MT in terms of keeping our corporate overlords, and their advertisers, happy. Hate to be a killjoy, just trying to save someone a ban.
The line must be drawn here. This far, no further.

... although I am a bit surprised that Al Jazeera does not appear in the infographic above. They definitely belong in the green rectangle.

Love the news bias chart. I never would have thought 20 years ago that I'd be relying on Al Jazeera & USA today as the most credible news sources.
I would also remove Reuters from its lofty position. They have a very strong Airbus bias, and their reporting on aerospace is surprisingly far down into the selective/unfair end of the spectrum.
