Jim “smoke and mirrors” Justice
It is getting difficult to keep up (with update)
I’m sure most of my readers are familiar with Jim Justice’s financial problems. I believe this one is the most recent:
A hotel company owned by the family of West Virginia Governor Jim Justice has been sued by Louisiana Bank after failing to pay back a $35 million pandemic relief loan.https://t.co/xzKGN49tTI

And is any legal officer looking into this?
It's one thing to not be able to pay one's bills, taxes, fines and judgments because you have no money, and quite another to actually collect money from others (in this case, more than $5 million from Greenbrier guests and employees), and to abscond with it.

(I wonder if Fox asked him about any of his legal problems?)
And what about his past opponents?
So far, Alex Mooney hasn't said anything. I do wonder what our ethically-challenged (Aruba vacations and Chick-fil-A sandwiches) congressman is thinking. As for Senator Manchin, Joe is apparently looking to his future; four WVU posts are currently at the top of Manchin's X feed. Including this one:
It was great to be back at my alma mater and catch up with @NealBrown_WVU ahead of next weekend’s season opener against Penn State. Let’s pack Milan Puskar Stadium and beat the Nittany Lions! 🏈 pic.twitter.com/zMkzi9nDa3
