-Years ago, these foul scum just disappeared.
-And how is it these degenerate and regular reprobate "public servants" accumulate millions of dollars?
-This is the decaying Republican red meat the hyenas in the fourth estate have been looking for to draw attention away from the chronic unhygienic odor emanating from Hillary and the Clinton Foundation. m/r
Hastert La Vista, Baby! :: SteynOnline
by Mark Steyn Steyn on America May 31, 2015
In its first 72 hours, the Denny Hastert scandal has galloped along at breakneck speed:
~First, it was announced that the former Speaker of the House was being charged with "structuring" - one of thoseconvenient catch-all pseudo-crimes that ensures when the feds can't get you for anything else there's always three checks for $9,750 they can nail you on. In this case, Hastert had been withdrawing small sums of cash in order to pay an unidentified person $3.5 million.
~It shouldn't be a crime to withdraw $3.5 million from your bank account in whatever increments you like. But how does a guy who's been in "public service" his entire life - first as a low-paid teacher, then as a low-paid legislator - have $3.5 million sitting in his bank in the first place? The crime isn't how Hastert got it out of his bank account, it's how it got in there in the first place.
~Be that as it may, what would a guy pay $3.5 mil in hush money for? Well, "Individual A" is said to have known Hastert all his life and grew up in Yorkville, Illinois, where Hastert taught as a high school teacher from 1965 to 1981. Hmm...
~In its first 24 hours, coverage focused mostly on the "structuring" ("Dennis Hastert's Withdrawals Drew Federal Attention. Will Yours?") And then, as they always do, members of the federal prosecutocracy began talking off the record:
Tribune newspapers reported earlier in the day that two unnamed federal officials said that Hastert paid a man from his past to conceal sexual misconduct.-go to links-
