The proper question to ask who(m) is a clean politician from Illinois? The last one was probably Abraham Lincoln.

That’s like looking for a shiny object in a cesspool.

I actually knew a truly decent Republican Illinois House member who was also a CPA with a super-solid reputation.

He hasn’t been in office since the 2000s.

Do a means test audit of all family members and mistresses.

Then have the IRS audit them.

Then have the family members and mistresses rat out the crooked politicians to save their skins.

Game. Set. Match.

Corruption in Illinois?
Far less effort would be exerted if they tried to look for the one or two honest folks in the very definition of a “typical Democrat corrupt and woebegone state”.

I read the article and it looks like most if not everything they are being accused of is Standard Operating Procedure here in California and especially in Congress.

Madigan carries no cell phone and has no email address.

No electronic paper trail.

No dummy, he.

Hope the feds investigate Kalifornia for political corruption, they’ll find a gold mine of crime and kickbacks!
