Democrat Lawfare #Fail – Rick Perry Cleared

Rick-Perry-Thumbs-Up-998x665Almost two years ago, we brought you the story (and one of the ugliest mugshots you’ll ever see) of the out of control Democrat (natch) DA, who refused to resign after a particularly egregious DUI (BAC .239) followed by threatening the police officers arresting her.

GuiltyLehmberg-ShirtWhen Gov Perry threatened to defund her office if she refused to resign, and subsequently followed through when she brazened it out, Rosemary Lehmberg filed corruption and abuse of power charges against Perry. Well, life’s a bitch, but sometimes you get justice – the second set of charges were thrown out today, after more than 18 months of the slowly grinding wheels of justice.

The Federalist has more details, but it’s over at last:

Texas’ highest criminal court tossed the second and final felony charge against former Gov. Rick Perry on Wednesday, likely ending a case the Republican says helped sink his short-lived 2016 presidential bid.

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals dismissed the abuse-of-power charge, which was filed after Perry threatened — and then carried out — a veto of state funding for a group of public corruption prosecutors after the Democratic head of the unit refused to resign.

God speed, Governor, and keep on fighting for the Constitution and States’ rights!
