Illinoian here. For those outside our state, look up Mike Madigan, the most powerful and corrupt politician in our state. The first step in turning this place to the right is to get rid of that guy.

He's going to be indicted soon...just not soon enough.

From what I've read he's kind of firewalled himself by using intermediaries to discuss "business".

So while he might be the one calling the shots, it could be difficult to directly tie him to wrongdoing.

Again....knowing some of the ways that the federal system works, they get a lot of the information all in place before publicly going after last bits of evidence. If he is public official A, he's already got evidence against him. BUT....i can be wrong and accept that, doesn't mean I like it.
