Reynolds flew to ISU game on vendor's plane

Do these people even know what ethics are?

An Associated Press review has found that Iowa Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds received approval from a state regulator to fly for free to Iowa State's bowl game on a jet owned by a company that is a longtime state vendor.

Reynolds flew to Tennessee to watch the Cyclones play in the Liberty Bowl on Dec. 30 on a plane owned by Sedgwick, which administers workers' compensation claims filed by injured state employees.

Reynolds' office received approval from the state ethics board director to accept the flight for herself and her family as a campaign donation from Sedgwick's CEO.


And what, pray tell, sort of fornicating bona fide campaign events would be taking place in Tennessee?

Cheesy Fries, is anyone really buying that bullshit?
