Yes !! Sure .. Why Not .. That's not a Crime when you .. Give it away .. Is It ?? Obama Supreme Court Candidate Took Felon's Money Among the prominent Democrats that Hillary Clinton’s convicted Chinese fundraiser generously donated to is a politician on the president’s short list to fill a Supreme Court vacancy. Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm got nearly $20,000 from felon Norman Hsu, even though he was a fugitive from U.S. justice when the money poured into her coffers. Earlier this month Hsu pleaded guilty to multiple counts of fraud for cheating investors out of $20 million and this week a federal jury in New York convicted him of violating campaign finance laws by making thousands of dollars in illegal contributions to top Democrats. judicialwatch.org Rep. Jackson Pays Politician Wife With Campaign Funds An Illinois legislator under federal investigation for trying to buy a U.S. Senate appointment from the state’s impeached governor has paid his politician wife hundreds of thousands of dollars in “consulting fees” from his congressional campaign. Democrat Jesse Jackson Jr., son of the famously corrupt civil rights leader by the same name, was already in trouble when this latest ethical lapse broke this week. The veteran lawmaker is under investigation by the Justice Department and Office of Congressional Ethics for his involvement in an epic national scandal involving criminally indicted former Governor Rod Blagojevich. Jackson, who is mentioned in Blagojevich’s criminal complaint, was one of several state lawmakers interested in filling Barack Obama’s vacated Senate seat. To boost his chances with Blagojevich Jackson’s supporters held a fundraising event for the disgraced governor’s cash-strapped campaign right before the FBI arrested him. The Jackson probe is ongoing and he has already spent tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees. This week a national news outlet reveals that Jackson’s congressional campaign has paid his wife—a Chicago City Councilwoman—at least $247,500 in consulting fees since 2001, nearly $100,000 of it since she was elected two years ago. The payments were discovered recently because Jackson didn’t list them on congressionally-mandated financial disclosures until this year, claiming that the omission was simply a mistake. judicialwatch.org
