He refused to give Laurie Monteforte of Eyewitness News (WBRE/WYOU) an interview the night he won. Shortly after he took office (as State Senator) he came over got into her face and told her he refused to give her the interview because she did not feature him enough in stories leading up to the election. <br /><br />Apparently she is supposed to do campaign PR for him because he is the mighty Mario. Then when Laurie posted this on social media, Mario's chief of staff replied on Twitter to Laurie "Watch it", which sounds like a threat to most people. She then removed her tweet to cover her little behind. <br /><br />All of this can be confirmed by the most watched news reporter in Monroe County by e-mailing her at: lmonteforte@pahomepage.com <br /><br />Mario Scavello is a Napoleon egomaniac who thinks he is Kevin Spacey in House of Cards. Sadly, he is supposed to serve the people--but he thinks it works the other way around. <br /><br />As for the protesters are "paid", how much money do most local non Republican groups have? If there was no Union Labor involvement, you can close your eyes to see how much they were paid. Get a grip Team Scavello. Mario lies, lies, and lies more. <br /><br />I will say, you are being very fair and even with this Bernie.

The list is endless but here are a few points; money paid to residents with farm assessments will be on the reduced farm value, not the fair market value. Hence PennEast's attempt at this greenfields project. The Delaware River and its surrounding watershed area is the drinking water source for some 15 million people. Any breach of that cannot be "mitigated" as PennEast suggests. And the thing that scares me the most is that we have heard not one word from PennEast about a safety plan. Nothing. There is a 1 mile wide evac radius for a 36" natural gas line running 1,420 psi but we've had hollow and vague suggestions of what we could do if there was a leak. If you go to the scoping meetings you'll get a tremendous amount of factual information about why we're fighting so hard against this project. (....)

I don't mind a politician changing their stance if it is for the good of the Commonwealth.
