WT: Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan scored several legislative wins this year in the state’s traditionally hurried 90-day legislative session, including tax incentives for new manufacturing companies and an ethics reform measure that targets conflicts of interest and corruption among state officials.
Mr. Hogan, a popular Republican governor in the predominantly Democratic state, managed to get much of his agenda approved while many the General Assembly’s more progressive measures faltered Monday as midnight approached.
“Almost all of our major initiatives got done,” Mr. Hogan told reporters shortly after midnight, calling it a “great, great session.”
Mr. Hogan and Democratic lawmakers did come together on a few bills, including one that would tighten ethics rules for state politicians. The legislation increases the requirements for financial disclosures and widens the definition of conflict of interest. read more

What a progressive state Maryland is filled with sanctimonious lawmakers who should go home and shoot themselves (but then on the other hand gas taxes are lower than Pennsylvania’s with that a-hole Wolfy.)
Not a bitter clinger at all.
I don’t care what he does. After I leave, Kim-Dong-Umm can nuke the fucking place for all I care.

him a “B” for dealing with the nutty
libs that overwhelm the legislature.
The horses done galloped out of the pen already.
Plow the entire East Coast over for all I care.
It’s Mountain Time for ever more.
