So, your boy Wexler laundering money and being guilty of voter fraud, mortgage fraud, residency fraud, insurance fraud, etc is not news but the private lives of some representative not even where the post is read is. You people are worthless as newspaper people.

i am not quite sure why this is anyone’s business. Did he use any public funds? Did he abuse his office?
Sometimes people need to separate and it none of our business.
