Here's the thing: she isn't his subordinate. She isn't a state employee. She technically works for some shady 501c4 organization that isn't required to report it's donors or expenses. So, we don't really know who pays the governor's mitsress' salary.

Well, we do know that said organization was founded by R. Cooper Shadduck, also known as ...


wait for it ...


The general counsel for the University of Alabama System Board of Trustees.

Bingo!

According to Collier, the governor was irate and blasted him for disobeying his orders. Mason, too, berated Collier and his staff.

"But what's important here is who else was in that meeting — Byrne, Bentley spokeswoman Jennifer Ardis and Joe Espy, the governor's private lawyer.

The February Massacre

Collier says he now regrets not telling his staff to leave the moment he saw those two in the room. In that meeting, they discussed sensitive information about ongoing investigations that they shouldn't have heard."

I think this ugly boil is getting ready to pop. pardon the dermatologist pun. We have both the Governor and the AG trying to sabotage a state ethics investigation into Mike Hubbard.

Alabama did not get its national reputation as one of the most corrupt state governments by accident. It has worked on it every year and thanks to Hubbard and the Governor, made it more public too.

Love this part:

(Perhaps coincidentally, Espy serves on the University of Alabama Board of Trustees. The UA general counsel, Cooper Shattuck, helped set up the Alabama Council for Excellent Government, the governor's 501©4 dark money group that has been rumored to be Mason's true employer. Mason is not a state employee and has not filed a disclosure with the Alabama Ethics Commission in several years. )

Have a feeling this is all going to Very Blazer Related.

"Perhaps coincidentally." Yes. Perhaps coincidentally the Dr Dr Governor tripped and got caught with his hand in the Mason Jar. And AB, are you hinting that Smithers was involved too? The horror!
