And she may take her Rhinestone Cowboy with her.

It must be hard to admit the woman whom you’ve personally coronated ‘First Lady’ of Oregon is the same grifter she’s always been.
Her scams just keep getting bigger.
And her men keep getting dumber. Take Governor John Kitzhaber. Please.
Let’s go to the Cylvia Hayes hall of shame tote board:
The scam to ‘marry’ a man for $5000.
The scam to set up an illegal pot farm.
The scam to sell the Governor’s office for personal and mutual gain.
The scam to make money using her title and not reporting it to the government.
Wait, whoa on that last one. A ‘scam to sell the Governor’s officer for personal and mutual gain’? From Willamette Week:
As WW has reported, Hayes in 2013 leveraged her position as first lady and policy adviser to Kitzhaber into private consulting contracts worth at least $85,000. On Tuesday, EO Media reported Hayes was paid $118,000 for unspecified work by a now-defunct Washington, D.C., non-profit.
WW has also reported that Hayes used state employees to help run her consulting business, and conducted private business while traveling at state expense.
Worse? She didn’t report $118,000 to the government. And the Governor didn’t report it on his ethics disclosures, either.
There’s more, but you get the picture.
In the post modern world of moral relativism, you may not know this behavior is not just unseemly, but unethical, lawless and an assault on the consciences of all good Oregonians who have been forced to tolerate this woman much like kids forced to be nice to Dad’s fourth wife named Bambi.
The Governor and Hayes are both under investigation by the Oregon Government Ethics Commission and the FBI. Good. Both deserve to go to jail.
