Another day, another corrupt Democrat has been caught breaking the law
A prominent Hawaii Democrat was sentenced to 40 months in prison on Wednesday for taking bribes in exchange for shaping legislation while in office.
Former Democratic Senate Majority Leader J. Kalani English pleaded guilty to honest services wire fraud earlier this year
Prosecutors argued that the sentence needed to send a "stern and lasting message" that corruption of elected officials will be punished.
Sing also wrote that English, who represented east Maui, Molokai, and Lanai, "was a compassionate and dedicated advocate for the rural communities and individuals he represented," including Native Hawaiians.

He has donated to 55 campaigns, including 29 sitting lawmakers
Money has gone to former Gov. Neil Abercrombie and current Gov. David Ige
