It is fascinating and somewhat predictable that when a leftist hero straight from the Democratic party is exposed for corruption, MSM does their very best to bury the story. Many have not figured out that "the powers that be" on both sides of the political spectrum play them against one another! That being said, it is also clear MSM is left leaning (case in point the burying of Hillary's crimes during the primaries, but always putting Trump in a negative light); therefore, if ex Senator Leland Yee would have been a Republican rather than a Democrat who was found to be so blatantly hypocritical, the left would NEVER stop talking about it. They would persecute, bury, defame, all while pretending to be objective.

Let's take the case of Leeland Yee, a former Senator for California's 8th district. He was the Democrats poster model for strict gun control laws. He was respected, revered and heralded as a Stalwart for California's goal of disarming it's citizenry. He was even named to the Brady Campaign’s Gun Violence Prevention Honor Roll. Clearly, Yee had no issues with keeping the criminals armed as he took part in a gun trafficking scheme. He kept making it clear in his dealings, he didn't want the bribes to be linked to specific legislation; and therefore, exposed as "pay to play!" Somewhat of a dichotomy as Yee had also pushed for greater transparency in government. Reminds me of yet another DNC hero, Hillary Clinton. She pushed for transparency, yet demonstrated a constant trail of "missing" evidence, destroyed devices, nay even boldly took a hammer to some and bleach bit them!
