A criminal referral. A private phone call. And two of Michigan’s most powerful elected officials.
Michigan House Oversight Chair Jay DeBoer joins the conversation to discuss a campaign finance referral involving Attorney General Dana Nessel’s wife—and an email he says documents Nessel contacting Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson about taking the referral back for further review.
Why did one group allegedly face felony charges over a similar campaign finance arrangement while this case took a different path? Where was the promised firewall? And why, DeBoer argues, are the rules different depending on whose name is on the paperwork?
We dig into the emails, the alleged double standard, the unanswered questions, and a Lansing political establishment that DeBoer says has failed the public.
Forget the partisan shouting for a minute. Who gets investigated, who gets protected, and who gets to decide?
You be the judge.
