Gulf Imperial Governor of Colorado, Michael Scott, Fired

Michael Scott, the Governor of the Gulf State of Colorado, has been removed from office by an executive order from Chancellor DesJarlais, stating mental health concerns although political reasons are highly suspect.

Michael Gary Scott, the current Governor of Colorado, was removed from office yesterday by Chancellor DesJarlais for "mental health" reasons

Denver, GCNA: Yesterday, Michael Gary Scott, the Governor of the State of Colorado, was notified that Chancellor DesJarlais had approved an order removing him from office and replacing him temporarily with the chief military commander for Colorado. Although the actual transcript of the papers were not provided, President Jose Francisco Mariscos of the Gulf Commonwealth of the North America gave a statement to the press that Governor Scott suffered from a personality disorder that led to eccentric behavior and this has impaired him from serving to his fullest capacity.

While possibly politically motivated, it is worth to note that the state of Colorado has been undergoing some chaotic times with mass protests springing up across the state and on more than one occasion, the military had to seize to control of the state due to Governor Scott's inactivity. 

However, others are speculating that this is a signal of the disfavor beginning to overshadow Pamela Beasley, the Chancellor's wife, and Prime Minister Jim Halpert. Many others including Governor Karen Fillipeli of New York and Governor Mark Beasley of Pennsylvania are also now  fearing for their jobs and possibly even lives as the Chancellor has been showing incredible disinterest for his wife and her cronies. 

So far, Michael Scott has accepted his fate and immediately resigned but rumor has it that he might have attempted to challenge the order, backing down after being threatened with execution.

President Rick Perry of Texas Indited for Corruption Charges

In a rare strike at President Perry in a move considered ridiculous even by the Democrats, government prosecutor Michael McCrum has lodged charges of corruption and abuse of office against President Rick Perry.

Austin, Texas: On August 15, a grand jury indicted President Rick Perry on crimes of corruption and abuse of power brought against him by a county prosecutor named Michael McCrum. The charges are based around a grapple of power that began a while back between President Perry and Rosemary Lehmberg. Lehmberg was a district attorney who also the head of the Public Integrity Unit, a government watchdog agency tasked with monitoring the actions of the national and county governments. She also happened to be a Democrat as well and did have a history of opposing Perry's policies.

A while back, she was caught driving under the influence of alcohol and caused a car accident, resulting in her being charged and sentenced to 45 days in a county jail. As a result, President Perry gave calls for her to step down as District Attorney and PIU head but she refused and President Perry threatened to use his veto power to cut most of the funds to the PIU.

Although he had the right to veto the bill, the act of using his powers for retaliation are what the prosecutor is using. Perry has also ignored past offenses in office and the fact that he is taking up issue in this case with a Democrat is why people consider this to be corrupt. If the district attorney had stepped down, Perry would have been able to replace her with one of his own men.

Perry completely believes he is in the right after he was indited, he turned himself in to authorities where he was photographed and put into the system. He has also hired an army of attorneys and believes that he will win this case. While he may clear this road block, if found guilty, he could be sentenced for as long as 99 years in prison. 

The political consequences of this are not negative for Perry and his party as it is only serving to strengthen their image and paint the Democrats as cheaters attempting to gain control of the state through legalities and technicalities rather then democracy, according to members of the Republican Party. However, this could have unintended international consequences though as this is sure to be greeted with pleasure by Texas's enemies.
