AG Kaul: "The Law Is for Other People"

Seems like Karpetbagger Kaul has a problem obeying the law--which is a really BIG problem given that he is Wisconsin's Attorney-General. 

Attorney General Josh Kaul is breaking the law in settling civil actions without seeking approval from the Legislature — and he shows no sign of stopping his defiance.

That’s a key allegation in a lawsuit filed Thursday in Polk County Circuit Court by the GOP-led Wisconsin State Legislature against Kaul and Joel Brennan, Gov. Tony Evers’ secretary of the Department of Administration....

...The lawsuit asserts Kaul has repeatedly violated Wisconsin Act 369. The law, signed in 2017, requires the attorney general to seek approval from the Legislature’s Joint Finance Committee before he moves to “compromise or discontinue .. any civil action” taken up by the state Department of Justice....

Karpetbagger Kaul offers a very weak defense of his illegal behaviors, of course.

We think the law is for everyone.  There's an election coming up....
