Can the downfall of the Ohio Republican Party be far behind? I'm just interested to see how deep thins thing goes. While I will still be interested in Ohio politics when living in San Diego, I'm glad to not be experiencing the effects first hand.
Columbus - A federal grand jury has subpoenaed Ohio House Speaker Larry Householder's personal banking records, just months after it demanded records from some of his top campaign vendors.Subpoenas have been issued to Citizen's National Bank and to People's National Bank, sources told The Plain Dealer.
Householder's annual financial disclosure statement lists a savings account with Citizen's National Bank and certificates of deposit and money market accounts with People's National Bank. Both financial institutions are in Perry County, where Householder lives.

The subpoenas are the latest developments in a wide-ranging investigation conducted by the FBI and IRS. Federal officials began the probe in March, after receipt of an anonymous memo.
The memo accused the House Republican Campaign Committee, which Householder oversees, of overpaying some campaign vendors, then having those vendors make secret payments to Householder, fund-raiser Kyle Sisk and former House Chief of Staff Brett Buerck.
Interesting.
