Ohio Democrat Rep. Marcia Fudge is a firm favorite to become Joe Biden’s secretary of agriculture if he’s certified the presidential election winner.
But everyone in politics knows it’s a long road to confirmation.
Fudge’s premature quest for nomination may collapse before it gets off the ground. The fact she requested leniency for former Ohio state legislator Lance Mason in 2015 after a judge convicted Mason of viciously beating his then-wife Aisha Fraser is garnering new scrutiny and rightfully so.
We have found a letter of support from @RepMarciaFudge during the 2015 sentencing of Judge Lance Mason after the severe beating of his wife Aisha Fraser. Mason is now the lead suspect in the weekend murder of Fraser. @cleveland19news pic.twitter.com/6Yzgw2gkkD

From Slate:
He punched her 20 times, bit her, and slammed her head against the dashboard of the car and window, breaking a bone in her face and leaving her in need of facial reconstruction surgery. She attempted to flee the car. He continued to beat her, before driving away and leaving her on the road to flag down a passing car and ask for a ride to the hospital. Their two young daughters were sitting in the back of the car during the assault.
Mason served nine months in jail. Shortly after his release, he stabbed his ex-wife to death.
Fox News adds how Fudge claimed — before and after Aisha Fraser’s murder — she could never imagine Mason capable of inflicting such cruelty.
“My support of Lance in 2015 was based on the person I knew for almost 30 years — an accomplished lawyer, prosecutor, state legislator and judge. That’s the Lance Mason I supported,” Fudge said in a statement released to Politico after Mason’s 2018 arrest. “The person who committed these crimes is not the Lance Mason familiar to me. They were horrific crimes, and I condemn them.”
Neither Fudge’s office nor Biden’s transition team immediately returned emails from Fox News seeking comment for this story.
Sounds like she will fit right in with a Demonrat administration!
She has horrible judgement, no wonder Biden likes her!
Hey, join the Biden crime family!!! Welcome!
Even more important now for the GOP to pick up those two Georgia senate seats. And more important still for GOP senators to show some backbone and reject worthless nominees like this fine specimen.
Just like the Dems to not look in the future for the end result no matter what it might end up like. They’re very impulsive and controlling and can’t see who’s around them and they just want to be the popular kid. But their popularity ideas are nothing what normal people would consider popular.
Shocker this judge who beat his wife “did prison time 9 months” she came to his aid for leniency for that penalty. Then he gets out and murders his ex wife in FRONT of his children, and goes back to where he belongs “behind bars” for 35+ years! This guy was a freaking JUDGE. Affirmative action must have been blind that day, because I am SURE this guy’s anger has followed him through life!
The demonic democrat socialists party will surround her with all their love and support. No surprise.
sounds just like another democrat
That’s what the Left wants to do to every single patriot. You don’t hear about it anymore, but there was a report when HRC was running for president that they had ordered guillotines and had a lot of storage containers positioned around the country to use them in. Still think this is conspiracy theories? Recently Antifa and BLM used guillotines during their violent riots doing “mock” beheadings, usually of Trump. Wake up, it is later than you think. Stand your ground and support all patriots. Our time for freedom is here and now, trust God! #MAGA
(I am talking to the leftist paid commenters here: Your time is short. Repent and turn from your wicked ways and call on Jesus Christ of Nazareth, He is the Only Way of salvation!)
So Lance follows the EXAMPLE of OJ SIMPSON. He kills his ex-wife. ANd gets away with it???? Does he? According to Fudge he does. I bet Fudge supports OJ too.
