Them and their states of mind. what did you make of that? to be honest with you, when i read this, i was appalled. i was appalled that the taxpayers would have to pay for it. and as a woman, i was appalled that they would say that brilgt ann kelly did this all on her own because she was scorned. we re not back in the stone ages, they re trying to put out that tony th that the tony of the bridget ann kelley would not have had those responsibilities in his office if she could noll be reliable. and she was hired by governor chris christie. to if she was that unreliable and not stable, i don t know what that says about him. governor chris christie will come to the mike to answer questions about the controversial bridge gate report. we ll take the news conference live so stick afternoon. and steve carnanke is next to ....
There s something to go back on. that is why, i think, joan, this does read as the opening argument for the defense, that you do have, as steve just pointed out, a kind of preimpeachment, a prebrutal of anything kelly might say. it does read like anyone who could potentially give evidence that perhaps chris christie perhaps knew anything, et cetera is being taken down. but the women are the ones being accused of having some sort of emotional problem. and people now try to blame this report on randy mastro and crihristies lawyers have done ts thing. but i can t believe this went out without christie s knowledge. these attacks on two people, but particularly bridget ann kelly, if she wants to start raising ....

To the lane closure, although the report doesn t explain how. christie critics are not buying it. friends of ms. kelly are calling the report sexist, saying it doubles down on a strategy of portraying ms. kelly as due police to us and ze pending on men for approval and stability. if you believe an emotional and stupid jilted woman caused bridgegate, i ve got a bridge to sell you. steve carnanke has been extensively covering the bridgegate scandal. co-author of chris joan, i will go to you first, because you wrote what was in my brain and i love it when somebody who is an excellent writer can sort ....
Defend christy when all this broke. so it s not, as steve says, just another law firm. there are connections here. and one thing, i see a master now gives several, i think he mentioned this at the press conference as well. where they asked him about his objectivity. he says hey, look, i m a registered democrat. i say, hey, if i m a lawyer, and you re paying me $650 an hour, my political leaning is not going to matter that much. he says i m a registered democrat so i couldn t possibly have been swayed. the whole point was that there were these christie democrats and they were trying to make sure that everyone was on board. right, and he also, i think offered up as a defense, said the lawyers have integrity. how could you question? i received the report from the review team at gibbs and dunn and on thursday, wednesday and thursday, i reviewed the ....
