Hey, I have an idea. Let's leave the presidential election to the cities of LA, SF, Chicago, Boston, Philly.........
LMFAO....
The bombshell federal racketeering indictment of former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan alleges the once-powerful Democrat met with then-Governor-elect J.B. Pritzker amid a scheme to get corrupt Chicago Ald. Danny Solis a lucrative state board position after Solis’ retirement from the Council.
That scheme is just one of those outlined in the 106-page indictment that accuses Madigan of leading a criminal enterprise for nearly a decade. It also alleges schemes involving ComEd and a parcel of land in Chinatown.
The indictment does not accuse Pritzker, also a Democrat, of wrongdoing, a point that U.S. Attorney John Lausch emphasized at a news conference Wednesday to announce the Madigan indictment.
