Q Research General #22248: A Tale of Two US Governments Edition
John Lausch info, it cane out ge's leaving the DOJ and replaced with Hur. Durbin and Duckworth eventually asked Biden to keep him. Article
Editorial: President Biden: Keep our U.S. Attorney John Lausch
Feb 09, 2021 at 11:15 am
President Joe Biden's Justice Department dismissed U.S. attorneys across the country appointed by former President Donald Trump on Tuesday, and Northern District of Illinois U.S. Attorney John Lausch appears to be out. That would be a terrible decision by Biden.
Lausch has been leading several wide-ranging corruption investigations involvingComEd and numerous top Democrats.
If Lausch goes, our two U.S. senators, Dick Durbin and Tammy Duckworth, either didn't see it coming or didn't do enough to stop it. They released a statement Tuesday morning expressing their "disappointment" with the decision. They should be working to reverse it immediately, not shrugging their shoulders with a lame news release.
Durbin has a pipeline to Biden directly through his seniority in the Senate and his new position heading the Judiciary Committee. So does Duckworth, who was considered last summer as a possible vice presidential running mate to Biden. What a misstep on their part.
This is bad news for Illinois - and great news to corrupt politicians who've been on Lausch's radar.
And what a coincidence that the politicians indicted, charged or under investigation so far happen to be mostly Democrats. Dismissing Lauschwill look like a Biden-Durbin-Duckworth favor to their corrupt Democrat pals.
The indictments and charges so far have included Chicago Ald. Edward Burke, 14th,and his aide, Peter Andrews; Commonwealth Edison and several of its higher-ups with ties to Michael Madigan; former Cook County Commissioner Jeff Tobolski and his aide, Pat Doherty; Crestwood Mayor Lou Presta; the late Sen. Martin Sandoval; former Rep. Luis Arroyo; Sen. Tom Cullerton; former labor leader John Coli; former Sen. Terry Link; and that's not even a full list.
How interesting they're all affiliated with the Democratic Party, we have a Democratic president and two Democratic senators, and suddenly the prosecutor handling the corruption probe is on the verge of being cut loose. How interesting that so far, the only U.S. attorneys invited to stay on in the Biden administration are the ones involved in "sensitive" investigations aimed at former President Donald Trump, CNN reports.
No other law enforcement official is doing the corruption work here in Illinois, not Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul, not Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx, or other county state's attorneys, and not police or sheriffs' departments, which are ill-equipped for high-profile corruption cases. Lausch is all we have.
Lausch also has been helping Mayor Lori Lightfoot in Chicago with violent crime. The effort known as Operation Legend, which fanned across several U.S. cities to battle increases in crime, was credited as of last fall with 262 charges of firearm offenses in the Northern District, a number 33% higher than 2018 and 48% higher than 2017, according to the Trump Justice Department.
Since late July, the coordination of local, state and federal law enforcement agencies has been targeting gun crimes and gun trafficking, drug trafficking, carjacking, straw purchasing and also last fall, a major drug sale operation on the West Side that netted the arrests of more than 25 people who allegedly used a special phone line to arrange sales and drops. Gangs and drugs have been a target of Lausch's office, not just pinstriped corruption involving elected officials.
It will be a sad day for Illinois if Lausch goes. He should stay, and our senators should have made sure that happened.

Q Research General #19956: Over The Target AF Edition
Prosecutor who indicted ex-Illinois speaker makes ominous warning: corruption probe not over
U.S. Attorney John Lausch, a holdover from the Trump administration leading the bribery case, says "I've defined our problem as a very stubborn one."
The U.S. attorney who secured a 22-count indictment against former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan says there's more work to be done.
Northern District of Illinois U.S. Attorney John Lausch, a holdover from the Trump administration, stayed on after President Joe Biden took office at the behest of U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Springfield.
As other U.S. attorneys that former President Donald Trump selected were leaving their posts to make way for Biden appointees, Durbin said Lausch was involved in important investigations and should remain.
In the summer of 2020, Lausch's office revealed a deferred prosecution agreement with utility ComEd, in which the company admitted to a bribery scheme involving several individuals and agreed to pay the government a $200 million fine. Madigan was labeled "Public Official A" in the ComEd document as the clear target of the federal corruption probe.
In Wednesday's news conference announcing the indictment of Madigan on racketeering and other charges, prosecutors alleged Madigan's political operation was a criminal enterprise that sought to keep the former speaker in power and financially benefit himself and his associates.
In announcing the indictment against Madigan Wednesday, Lausch said he will continue to be on the job as long as Biden allows.
"I was here as an assistant U.S. attorney for a number of years before I had the great fortune to come back in this job," Lausch said. "I think we all shake our heads sometimes when we think that there's another corruption case that's happening. It happens with other crimes as well. And that's why I've defined our problem as a very stubborn one."
Despite Wednesday's 22-count indictment against the longtime former speaker of the Illinois House, the investigation into political corruption under the dome in Springfield - and at city halls in Chicago and elsewhere - continues, Lausch said.
He said some investigations take time and there isn't much of a deadline other than the statute of limitation for some crimes.
"We follow the evidence where it leads," he added. "Sometimes we get there more quickly than we think. Other times it takes us longer, and I think as you all know well, we're pretty thorough and deliberate in this shop."
While Madigan is the latest to face federal charges, he's far from the first.
The federal probe nabbed late former Democratic state Sen. Martin Sandoval, who pleaded guilty in early 2020 of taking bribes from red light camera vendors to effectively kill legislation regulating the industry. In a separate case, federal prosecutors arrested former Democratic state Rep. Luis Arroyo in 2019, who was charged with taking a bribe from a state senator believed to be former state Sen. Terry Link. Link was later charged with tax evasion. There's also the pending charge against state Sen. Tom Cullerton, D-Villa Park, who's accused of embezzling from a labor union. Cullerton resigned his job last week and is expected to plead guilty.

Former state Rep. Luis Arroyo pleads guilty in corruption case
It's been two years since prosecutors first charged Arroyo with bribery amid a series of burgeoning public corruption probes.
In October 2020, a 15-page indictment in Arroyo's case added charges against James Weiss. It alleged that Arroyo spent roughly a year as Weiss' bought-and-paid-for member of the Illinois House of Representatives.
Weiss is the son-in-law of former Cook County Democratic Party chairman and ex-county assessor Joseph Berrios.
Weiss managed Collage LLC, which operated unlicensed video gambling machines known as sweepstakes machines. The indictment alleged that Weiss paid bribes to Arroyo from November 2018 until October 2019, cutting checks from Collage to Arroyo's Spartacus 3 LLC.

Businessman named in federal corruption probe accused of fraud in bankruptcy court
The owner of a clout-heavy fuel distribution firm embroiled in an ongoing federal corruption probe has been accused in bankruptcy court of lying under oath, hiding assets and secretly cutting tens of thousands of dollars in checks to himself and family members.
The Department of Justice attorney assigned to monitor the bankruptcy petition of Black Dog Chicago LLC said in a filing with the court last month that owner Amit Gauri has "engaged in self-dealing" and used his company's assets "as his personal piggy bank" to fund a lavish lifestyle.
—
When questioned about his petition under oath last November, Gauri acknowledged that he'd met with Sandoval and former state Rep. Luis Arroyo, who also has been charged in federal court with corruption, to discuss issues related to
minority-owned business contracts.
That's the D party con, one of them anyway

Ex-Illinois lawmaker pleads guilty to federal tax evasion
Former longtime Illinois state Sen. Terry Link pleaded guilty Wednesday to tax evasion in federal court.
The Democrat, who resigned last week, had been in office since 1997. He's the latest state legislator to be charged in the federal government's ongoing criminal investigations into public corruption in Illinois.
Link, 73, appeared in federal court before U.S. District Judge Robert Dow via video during a roughly 45-minute hearing.
According to Wednesday's 18-page plea agreement, Link listed his 2016 tax return income as $264,450 when it was at least $358,000. He also admitted to spending more than $73,000 in campaign funds on personal expenses, among other things.
When Dow asked Link's plea on the tax charge, Link said, "Guilty, your honor," according to The Chicago Tribune.
Link would face up to 16 months in prison, but federal prosecutors said Wednesday that they intend to recommend probation if Link fully cooperates with the government.
A status hearing has been set for March 30.
His plea comes after several other state lawmakers were charged.
Among them was former state Rep. Luis Arroyo, a Chicago Democrat, who pleaded not guilty in February to bribery allegations. He's accused of paying a bribe to an unnamed state senator in exchange for support of a gambling bill that would have benefited a lobbying client.
He resigned in November, a week after his arrest. In announcing the bribery charge, federal prosecutors revealed that the unnamed state senator had been cooperating with them since 2016.
Link has previously denied to reporters that he was the unnamed state senator. The Chicago Tribune and Chicago Sun-Times, citing anonymous sources, have identified Link as the unnamed senator.
A phone message left Wednesday for Link wasn't returned.

State senator who wore wire on fellow lawmaker failed to report $50,000 condo sale profit, records show
A Democratic state senator embroiled in a federal government corruption investigation failed to report a $50,000 profit from the sale of a Florida condominium as required on his state ethics form, the Tribune has found.
The 2016 real estate transaction involved veteran Lake County Sen. Terry Link, identified by a source as the unnamed senator who wore a wire on a fellow lawmaker. The recording, made in August, captured what authorities said was a bribery offer that led to criminal charges against then-state Rep. Luis Arroyo of Chicago.
Link, who has denied being the unnamed senator, ended up cooperating with the FBI after authorities discovered evidence that showed he'd cheated on his taxes, prosecutors have said in court filings. A source said Link's undisclosed condo sale isn't what spurred their investigation into his finances.
The buyer of Link's Florida condo? The mother-in-law of a man who sources say is under investigation in the federal probe of state Sen. Martin Sandoval and SafeSpeed, the red-light camera company. Link said that tie is a coincidence.
On the same day Link sold his condo, he bought a larger unit in Florida, taking a personal loan from a Northbrook mortgage broker who was a campaign donor because Link could not qualify for a conventional mortgage at the time, the broker told the Tribune.
State law requires elected officials to disclose when they make more than $5,000 from selling any asset. The fourth question on the form asks officials to "List the identity (including the address or legal description of any real estate) of any capital asset from which a capital gain of $5,000 or more was realized during the preceding calendar year."
Link offered the same response to that question as he did to the form's other questions: "N/A," short for "not applicable."
Asked recently about the ethics form omission, Link at first said he didn't need to report the profit because he had immediately used the money to buy a bigger Florida condo and had not owed any taxes on the transaction.
Ethics experts, however, said federal capital gains taxation is irrelevant to the state requirement for officials to disclose such deals.
"Strictly speaking, he has violated the law," election attorney Richard Means said.
After consulting with the Senate Democratic ethics officer, Link later told the Tribune he would be amending his statement of economic interests that covers 2016 to include the real estate deal.
"I'm glad you brought it to my attention," Link said. "To me, it was something I never intended to skirt the issue."

Another Illinois Democrat Resigns Amid Growing Federal Corruption Investigation
In late October we reported on the arrest of Illinois State Rep Luis Arroyo in the middle of a growing Democrat corruption investigation.
The plot continues to thicken.
Now State Senator Martin Sandoval has resigned his position as things heat up in a scandal that is overtaking Illinois Democrats.
From The Chicago Tribune:
State Sen. Martin Sandoval, the Southwest Side Democrat whose statehouse offices were raided by federal agents in September, is resigning his legislative seat effective with the new year, State Board of Elections officials said Wednesday.
Sandoval, in his 16th year as a state lawmaker, had previously resigned his chairmanship of the powerful Senate Transportation Committee. He has been a member of the leadership team of Senate President John Cullerton, who is retiring in January.
"It is with a heavy heart, I, Martin A. Sandoval, do hereby resign the office of state senator" effective Jan. 1 at 12:01 p.m., Sandoval, who has not responded to requests for comments since the raids, said in a letter to the office of the secretary of the Illinois Senate.
"Respect for my constituents and the Senate convinced me that this action is necessary in order to proceed without distraction to the important work that needs to be accomplished for working families throughout the state of Illinois in the future," Sandoval wrote.
Federal agents raided Sandoval's Springfield office on Sept. 24 with a search warrant seeking a vast array of information involving construction, transportation and power company officials, lobbyists, gambling interests, a red-light camera company and at least three suburban mayors. Agents also were at his Cicero office and his home. The Sandoval raid was quickly followed by federal law enforcement actions in McCook, Lyons and Summit - all towns in the senator's district.
Records show the FBI also has been investigating Cook County Commissioner and McCook Mayor Jeff Tobolski and Lyons Mayor Chris Getty.
The Tribune previously reported that agents visited Bluff City Materials, a Bartlett sand and gravel operation owned by a major Sandoval donor, and that his connections to Commonwealth Edison - where his daughter, Angie, has worked as a senior account representative - have also been probed.

Mad Max Missing
The entire Democrat establishment of Chicago was publicly humiliated last week after selling expensive ($200) tickets to a fundraiser in the grand ballroom of the Hilton Hotel downtown, only to have the "special guest," Maxine Waters, missing in action, with no notice and no excuse. Representative Waters has titillated angry Democrats with her incitements to harass their political opponents, and her demands for impeachment of President Trump that began even before he took office.
The national media seem to have been completely uninterested in the Missing Persons bulletin potential in such a high profile snub. The only media account that I have found is from the Chicago City Wire on October 11.
Chicago Democrat Machine royalty converged tonight at the Chicago Hilton Grand Ballroom for a cocktail reception that was supposed to feature U.S. Rep. Maxine Waters (D-California) as the "special guest." (snip)
The event, honoring Chicago Teachers Union President Karen Lewis, retired Illinois Supreme Court Justice Charles Freeman and Cook County Assessor Joseph Berrios, was hosted by Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Cook County Board President and current mayoral candidate Toni Preckwinkle.
The 2 hosts, Rahm Emanuel and Toni Preckwinkle, are the two monarchs of local government. But they were not the only powerhouses snubbed:
Other listed attendees on hand to see Waters included Illinois House Speaker Michael J. Madigan (D-Chicago), State Reps. Robert Martwick (D-Chicago), Karen Yarbrough (D-Maywood), Robert Rita (D-Blue Island), Lou Lang (D-Skokie) and Mike Zalewski (D-Riverside), and State Senators Ira Silverstein (D-Chicago), Antonio Munoz (D-Chicago), Luis Arroyo (D-Chicago), Steve Landek (D-Bridgeview), Don Harmon (D-Oak Park), Laura Murphy (D-Park Ridge) and Michael Hastings (D-Orland Park).
Mike Madigan is considered the most powerful man in Illinois state politics, and has been for many years.
The honorees who were snubbed are also bigshots. Karen Lewis of the teacher's union is a major force in politics, and outgoing Cook County Assessor Berrios is the local head of the Democratic Party.
They can all go pound sand as far as Auntie Maxine is concerned, apparently.

Mad Max No-Showed in Chicago
The entire Democrat establishment of Chicago was publicly humiliated last week after selling expensive ($200) tickets to a fundraiser in the grand ballroom of the Hilton Hotel downtown, only to have the "special guest," Maxine Waters, missing in action, with no notice and no excuse. Representative Waters has titillated angry Democrats with her incitements to harass their political opponents, and her demands for impeachment of President Trump that began even before he took office.
The national media seem to have been completely uninterested in the Missing Persons bulletin potential in such a high profile snub. The only media account that I have found is from the Chicago City Wire on October 11.
Chicago Democrat Machine royalty converged tonight at the Chicago Hilton Grand Ballroom for a cocktail reception that was supposed to feature U.S. Rep. Maxine Waters (D-California) as the "special guest." (snip)
The event, honoring Chicago Teachers Union President Karen Lewis, retired Illinois Supreme Court Justice Charles Freeman and Cook County Assessor Joseph Berrios, was hosted by Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Cook County Board President and current mayoral candidate Toni Preckwinkle.
The 2 hosts, Rahm Emanuel and Toni Preckwinkle, are the two monarchs of local government. But they were not the only powerhouses snubbed:
Other listed attendees on hand to see Waters included Illinois House Speaker Michael J. Madigan (D-Chicago), State Reps. Robert Martwick (D-Chicago), Karen Yarbrough (D-Maywood), Robert Rita (D-Blue Island), Lou Lang (D-Skokie) and Mike Zalewski (D-Riverside), and State Senators Ira Silverstein (D-Chicago), Antonio Munoz (D-Chicago), Luis Arroyo (D-Chicago), Steve Landek (D-Bridgeview), Don Harmon (D-Oak Park), Laura Murphy (D-Park Ridge) and Michael Hastings (D-Orland Park).
Mike Madigan is considered the most powerful man in Illinois state politics, and has been for many years.
The honorees who were snubbed are also bigshots. Karen Lewis of the teacher's union is a major force in politics, and outgoing Cook County Assessor Berrios is the local head of the Democratic Party.

Two Puerto Rico Mayors Arrested and Charged with Accepting Bribes (Justic.gov)
The mayors of two municipalities in Puerto Rico were arrested yesterday for allegedly engaging in conspiracy, soliciting bribes, and extortion.
According to the indictment, unsealed yesterday in the District of Puerto Rico, Javier Garc?a-P?rez, 46, Mayor of Aguas Buenas, was involved in a bribery conspiracy in which, from 2017 through 2021, he received and accepted cash payments from two businessmen in exchange for awarding municipal contracts for waste disposal services, asphalt and paving services, and debris removal and paying outstanding invoices on the contracts. The indictment alleges that Garc?a-P?rez received at least $32,000 in cash payments from the two businessmen from August 2020 through September 2021.
A second indictment unsealed yesterday alleges that Reinaldo Vargas-Rodriguez, 48, Mayor of Humacao, was involved in a bribery conspiracy in which, from January to July 2021, he received and accepted cash payments from two businessmen in exchange for awarding municipal contracts for waste disposal and asphalt and paving services, and for paying outstanding invoices on the contracts. The indictment alleges that Vargas-Rodriguez received at least $15,000 in cash payments from the two businessmen from March 18, 2021, through April 15, 2021.
If convicted of all counts, Garc?a-P?rez and Vargas-Rodriguez each face up to 20 years in prison. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.
Assistant Attorney General Kenneth A. Polite, Jr. of the Justice Department's Criminal Division, U.S. Attorney W. Stephen Muldrow for the District of Puerto Rico, and Assistant Director Luis M. Quesada of the FBI's Criminal Investigative Division made the announcement.
The investigation was conducted by the FBI's San Juan Field Office.
The cases are being prosecuted by Trial Attorney Nicholas W. Cannon of the Criminal Division's Public Integrity Section and Assistant U.S. Attorney Scott H. Anderson for the District of Puerto Rico.
The cases are part of the Justice Department's ongoing efforts to combat public corruption by municipal officials in Puerto Rico. In addition to the above matters, the Public Integrity Section and the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Puerto Rico have recently obtained convictions against other former public officials and contractors in the District of Puerto Rico for soliciting and accepting bribes related to municipal contracts. See United States v. Luis Arroyo-Chiques, 21-485 (SCC); United States v. Eduardo Cintron-Suarez, 22-151 (SCC); United States v. Felix Delgado-Montalvo, 21-463 (RAM); United States v. Oscar Santamaria-Torres, 21-464 (RAM); United States v. Raymond Rodriguez, 21-465 (RAM).
Additionally, the department recently obtained indictments charging several former officials and contractors with bribery related to municipal contracts, and those cases are still pending. See United States v. Mario Villegas-Vargas, 21-468 (FAB); United States v. Angel Perez-Otero, 21-474 (ADC); and United States v. Radames Benitez-Cardona, 21-475 (PAD).
An indictment is merely an allegation, and all defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
