Denny Hoskins (r – noun, verb, CPA) continues to garner attention over his missed vote on the amendment to allow conceal carry on university campuses.
Our previous coverage:
Denny Hoskins (r): “Mr. University President, tear down those signs…”

Denny Hoskins does a weekly morning radio interview with KOKO in Warrensburg (they also post his press releases on line). This morning he got to address his missed vote on the campus conceal carry amendment.
I called the station to ask if they had recorded the show in the hope that we could transcribe the interview and post it. No luck, they didn’t record it.

Hoskins replied that the Democratic leadership was under investigation by the FBI (mentioning Representative Paul LeVota by name). Hoskins went on to say that he was being picked on because he’s in the leadership of the freshman class, and that he’s considered future leadership [in the House]…

Is anybody else in the republican “leadership” still flogging the FBI story?
Well, anyway, let’s follow some money.
