The Video Seen Across The Nation: Lombardo Caught Lying About Abuse of Power Traffic Stop

Following the body camera footage seen across the nation that shows Governor Joe Lombardo abusing the power of his office to get out of a traffic violation, Lombardo is now blatantly lying that he “complied” with the officer during the traffic stop.

In the video, Lombardo can be heard interrupting the police officer before he could barely finish a sentence, saying, “I’m Joe Lombardo” and “Come on, man”, clearly intimidating – not complying.

Does Lombardo think he deserves to be treated above the law? Why is he lying about complying with law enforcement?

Watch the video HERE.

DGA spokesperson Olivia Davis said: “The video is clear as day: Joe Lombardo gets pulled over, interrupts the officer, and then name drops himself to avoid the consequences. Lombardo is telling voters not to believe their own eyes and ears – further proof that he is a corrupt, out-of-touch politician who thinks he is above the law.”
