Democrat Rep. Josh Riley is facing a firestorm of criticism after being exposed as a complete hypocrite over his cozy financial ties to the same utility company he's been bashing on the campaign trail. Republican challenger Peter Oberacker is hammering Riley for this classic case of liberal "do as I say, not as I do" politics.
Riley has been running around upstate New York pretending to be some kind of crusader against big energy companies, but behind closed doors? He's been cashing checks from the very same industry he claims to fight. This is exactly the kind of swamp behavior that President Trump has been draining from Washington!
Another Democrat, Another Scandal
The hypocrisy is so thick you could cut it with a knife. Riley stands up in front of hard-working New Yorkers and rails against utility companies, then quietly takes their money when he thinks nobody's watching. But patriots like Oberacker are paying attention, and they're not going to let this slide.
"Josh Riley represents everything wrong with career politicians - saying one thing to voters while doing the exact opposite behind their backs,"
This competitive House race is heating up fast, and Riley's desperate attempts to play both sides are finally catching up with him. While President Trump's administration is delivering real results for American families with lower energy costs and American energy dominance, Democrats like Riley are still playing the same old corrupt games.
New York voters deserve better than another lying politician who enriches himself while pretending to fight for the people. Riley's ties to the energy company he publicly attacks show exactly where his real loyalties lie - and it's not with his constituents.
Will upstate New York voters see through Riley's obvious deception? Or will they reward another Democrat hypocrite with another term to continue his double-dealing ways?
