“As our source put it, this is a “naked effort by Rahm Emanuel and the White House to extort Nelson’s vote.” They are “threatening to close a base vital to national security for what?” asked the Senate staffer.”
Rahm Emanuel can flat out kiss my a$$! What a lowlife scumbag.
Is what Emanuel is doing even legal? Seems there should be a separation of powers argument in there somewhere.
I didn’t think the White House was supposed to HAVE the power to add a base to the BRAC list. I thought that was the reason for the BRAC Commission in the first place.
Promise him a big job if he loses the election like good ole mafia guys will do!
