Christie’s Bridgegate probe blames aides

An investigation by lawyers hired by the office of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie reportedly will blame only the two people already named for orchestrating politically motivated lane closures on the George Washington Bridge.

The Wall Street Journal said the report, to be released Thursday, will point the finger at Bridget Anne Kelly, Christie’s former deputy chief of staff, and ex-Port Authority official David Wildstein.

The closures, which turned Fort Lee into a traffic nightmare, were allegedly payback to the town’s mayor for failing to support Christie’s re-election bid. The feds and the state legislature have launched probes.
