Connections Connections?

  • Leon Dingle Jr. and his wife, Karin Dingle, leased out a portion of a small, one-story building they owned on the West Side to UIC for storage. They collected nearly $700,000 in rent over seven years from the state university — more than twice the $310,000 they paid for the entire building, university and property records show. When the university signed the lease, Leon Dingle was treasurer of the Illinois Medical District Commission, a government agency that oversees development within a 560-acre swath of the West Side that includes the UIC hospital campus. Four years earlier, Dingle and his fellow commissioners agreed to put up a $30 million office building at 1747 W. Roosevelt that UIC is now buying on an installment contract

    ...lawyer for this contract is PATRICK DALEY THOMPSON and Richie Daley's friends are the developlers!

    Newly-minted Alderman Patrick DALEY Thompson? Oh, please let this be true, so we can be rid of yet another Daley scourge.
His website touts his experience in real estate law and municipal financing. This could be Pulitzer material in the right hands.

Amazing how something that could have nipped his political career in the bud is released Post Election. Sort of like when Wall Street announced the downgrade on Chicago the Friday after the Primary. So many coincidences in Chicago Politics make one wonder."G"

Dingle was very close with long-retired Chief of Organized Crime Elgia Cook.
After an event on Dingle's yacht then acting Chief Hoke was able to permanently remove the Reverend Jesse Jackson's bodyguards from the Intelligence Section.

There were a lot of crazy deals with the land in that whole area! It was all acquired for taxes or eminent domaine and sweetheart deals between the city, U of I and the Ill. Med. District. Even the Pritzkers got in on that. But hey... Nobody knows nuttin! Are all those parking meters the mutt mayor sold, still all over the area where all that's there are empty streets and vacant lots?

Who cares! It's only taxpayers money!

Where's Andy shaw? Pam zekman? Lisa madigan? Anyone?

I guess the Russian gangster cab driving empire already has a Daley in their pocket, bought and paid for. That entire fucking family weasels their way into public service and hangs out a great big FOR SALE sign.

Remember the Romanoffs.

Reality check --

I got a "20% off" coupon in the mail from CVS -- good for only two more days by the time it arrived.

I presented it when I bought two bottles of ibuprofen. Sorry. See down here in the five-point type? "Not good on promotional items."

So I paid full boat.

Now the coupon has expired.

That is the story of my high-level financial speculation for this week.

“Let me tell you about the very rich. They are different from you and me. They possess and enjoy early, and it does something to them, makes them soft where we are hard, and cynical where we are trustful, in a way that, unless you were born rich, it is very difficult to understand. They think, deep in their hearts, that they are better than we are because we had to discover the compensations and refuges of life for ourselves. Even when they enter deep into our world or sink below us, they still think that they are better than we
are. They are different.”

-- F. Scott Fitzgerald

In 2006 Patrick Daley Thompson was an unknown person. In 2006 he ran for Metropolitan Water Commissioner. He lost. In 2010 he ran again and won. In 2015 he ran for Alderman and he won. Are the voters stupid? This guy has clout written all over him. The first thing we need to do is kick out all of the connected clouted politicians. Then vote in everyday citizens. If they don't deliver then vote them out. We need to end the legacy of political dynasty families and politicians who serve 30 to 50 years in office and hand over political seats to their offspring.

The really smart politicians make their money the smart way, unethical probably, but not dumb enough to land themselves in prison. They don't take envelopes under the table. They sell insurance, offer legal services for real estate or tax issues, all things that people need on a regular basis and like to go to the connected firms to get these things done. That is where the Madigans and Daleys and many others over the years make their money. The problem here is that the connected also control the law making bodies and they will not pass legislation such as exists in other states to make their shady deals a criminal offense. Look at the ethics laws passed in Illinois, even after " reform" legislation was passed. At most a violation is a rule violation that might being a fine or a reprimand and if caught violating these rules they might have to make good on their " mistakes". These ethics laws along with weak Freedom of Information laws shield the corrupt political class from the sunshine .

Yes, the same Cook who resigned rather then take a random drug screen test? And, then wiretapping equipment was found on the 9th floor in the Intelligence Section linking all phones to the Chief's Office? Yes, all hush hush. Jackson's body guards were phantoms who never had to account for their time.

Here is a question: Why doesn't the Federal Government launch a RICCO ACT INVESTIGATION on Richard Daley and his business associates? Lets start with the Richard himself as the head of an organized business crime empire. The organized business crime empire is the ILLINOIS AND CHICAGO DEMOCRATIC PARTY. Why hasn't the Federal Government investigated Daley, the Democratic Party and his CHILDHOOD FRIENDS WHO HAVE BECOME MILLIONAIRES. Look what the Federal Government is doing to Senator Robert Mememdez of New Yersey. The Federal Government has indited him for allegedly HELPING OUT A FAMILY FRIEND. Does this sound familiar? Michael Tadin, Fred Barbario, Walsh Construction Family, McHugh Family Construction, Paschen Construction, and not forget the companies that are receiving TIF Founds. What Daley and the Democratic Party has paid to their friends makes Mememdez charges look like chump change. How come the Federal Government has not looked into Daley's give a ways of Chicago's assets? Why doesn't the Federal Government look to see how much monies these companies gave to the Daleys and the Democratic Party? The Federal Government will not go after Daley and the Democratic Party (Daley, Madigan, Cullerton etc,) Deley gets over $500.00 a day in retirement benefits. So what do the Democratic want, THEY WANT TO DIMINISH OVER PENSIONS.

Bridgeport voted him in, they deserve him and his crime family, but in Chicago it is always good for the Irish mob to make money other than someone else, anyone else it is not legal and deals are destroyed before the ink is dry. FACT. The rest of us are lazy, as was stated in the movie Departed, you gotta take what you want

The Chancellor of the City Colleges of Chicago had to "move" into the city to comply with residency rules. Her lavish suburban home is Lansing, Illinois. Chancellor Cheryl Hyman filed a quit claim deed adding her mother as co-owner to the suburban property. She then rented an apartment and registered as a voter in Chicago.

Her Chicago landlord is none other than Elzie Higginbotham of East Lake Development Corporation.

This should raise a dozen red flags. Elzie is a City Hall insider much favored by the Daleys. The Better Government Association tagged Hyman for continuing to seek property tax exemptions in the suburbs while claiming to be a Chicagoan for employment purposes.

He is not in Intelligence anymore, he's been in the Fugitive Unit for a few years already and he is the son and should also be the recipient of the 95K mortgage payment as a gift. I wonder if the FEDS required him to return the money.

Tell that to all your Irish buddies on this job who live in the 11th ward, and voted for this fool. Oh and our union (FOP) endorsed him.
