Would you buy insurance from this man?

Former State Senator John Ford, awaiting trial on federal bribery and corruption charges, is fighting to keep his Tennessee insurance license active:

The Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance is asking an administrative law judge to revoke Ford's license, citing campaign-spending violations as proof of financial irresponsibility and untrustworthiness.

Note: the department is not even including the Waltz-related allegations in their complaint. This is about earlier misdeeds, for which the former Senator has already been penalized.

Proven financial irresponsibility is a huge no-no in the insurance licensing world; or, at least, it should be treated strictly as such.
