North Dakota’s longest-serving state senator will be resigning after a report revealed the lawmaker exchanged text messages with a man jailed on child pornography charges.
“Recent news stories have become a distraction for the important work of the legislative assembly during its interim meetings,” Republican Ray Holmberg, 79, said in a statement announcing his resignation, effective June 1.
“I want to do what I can, within my power, to lessen such distractions.”
Holmberg’s term was scheduled to end on Nov. 30 and he had already announced in March that it would be his last.
Holmberg had exchanged 72 text messages in August with Nicholas James Morgan-Derosier, the Forum of Fargo reported on April 1.
Morgan-Derosier has been behind bars on charges of possessing several thousand images and videos depicting sexually abused children. He is also accused of taking two children under the age of 10 from Minnesota to his home in Grand Forks with the intent to sexually abuse them. more
…about the ONLY difference between Dems and GOP-E at this point is that Repubs still have to get OUT when their kid fondling gets exposed, where Democrats simply vie for who gets away with more kid touching as they rig the courts to legalize pedophilia.
Which the GOP-E assists with so they, too, one day can start raping children without losing their jobs.
Execute him.
Another Bush Republican! ! “Shockked, iam socked!”!
Woda thunk it!
Republicans always get caught doing things they say they are against. This is why they never fight for our side.
Start investing in tar and feather supply companies. I have a hunch there will be very high demand soon.
And in companies that produce heavy mill stones.

But, first, invest in aluminium bat manufacturers.
(Anyone who suggests “Tar and feathers” before “To the nearest wall”, needs to be beaten. To death. They are a more existential threat.)

I guess this abarition thinks you need to be beaten to death. Some one needs to run his I.P for a location so the closest IOTW reader can put him out of our misery.
You leave Fnucky alone. His posts are just like reading Zippy the pinhead existential comix.
Again, for the 23rd time. I charge 50 bucks. Of course, with fuel being what it is, we’re gonna’ have to split the bill.
And I call bare hands. Won’t take but a minute.
Zippy the Pinhead was great. This guy is an incoherent fucktard.
Sometimes….. but sometimes if you’re like super buzzed and you stare at his posts for long enough….something something…..maybe Fnucky is Zippys angst ridden brother, Lippy.
I dunno’, I just figure if we let him spin his wheels long enough he might get better at it.
Fnucky, you can’t be coy or assume anyone has your knowledge base or references. You gotta’ spell it out. Keep at it. I enjoy watching train wrecks.
I LOVE ZIPPY & ANGEL FOOD McSpade.
Flaky Font & of course Mr.Natural.
I am hearing rumors about pedo crap
involving my local Govt. in a town
of 15k. in frickin TX for goodness sakes.
Burr dude,you missed your calling in stand up
comedy.Cole-Burt would leave the country…….
I do my stand up in real life situations where NO ONE involved laughs but people on the sidelines bust up.
When you do away with harsh punishments for heinous crimes, all you have left are heinous crimes.
When GOP perverts are outed they quit, go to jail, or get booted.
When Demonrat perverts are outed they get promoted to the WH.
But it’s not just the congressman, it’s all those people around him who just give him a pass and say when asked that “Well, he’s leaving, so let’s just let him leave with dignity, blah, blah, blah.” “Law-makers”? No. Law-breakers.
I used to watch him on the Red Skelton Show, Clem Ca”diddle”hopper. But now he changed his name to just diddle. 79 & still diddling, OMG!
“Texts are just gone.”
Funny how that works, ain’t it?
All my texts about “patio work” walk off, too.
Sorta like HRC’s shithouse server.
