Just saw on the news that the governor ordered a human resource investigation into the 4 commissioners. If what the Sportsman's Alliance says is correct I believe the governor will sacrifice these 4 to make it look like he is doing what is right and to hopefully keep the media from looking deeper. Sideshow Bob is actually much more savvy than Inslee was and is a master of hiding stuff and distancing himself from controversy.
At the end of the day I think liberals are happy to take hunting rights when nobody is watching but if they are exposed for using corruption to take those rights it could cause the public to take notice to what has been going on. And I personally believe that neither the state or the tribes want the truth being discussed in the open where people are paying attention.
