After reading through this again, I have a couple of questions: DId Thomas aid his son's activities by financially supporting him during his illegal activities? Is that the reason it was important to cut a plea deal?..... HM
NOW TO MAGGIE'S QUESTIONS/COMMENTS:
I’ve never seen the ComEd/Ayers connection to VJ’s Uncle Lester Dugas, including his trips to Russia for the 1977? (date unconfirmed) trip to Russia as part of a U.S. Department of Energy exchange program.
VJ’s family ties to Ayers’, the CP, and black radicals hasn’t been totally vetted.
Tom Ayers controlled the power and money. Jarrett, et al, seems to be the bridge to Mayor Washington & company, the CP, and black radcal groups.

There is so much more to this, but this outline is just to set the focus in things people overlook, one major oversight is that Ayers being a fugitive for 11 years, lived in Hyde Park, now who would be powerful enough to have that occur and everyone turn a blind eye to it? Thomas Ayers
Thomas Ayers also happened to have major influence over the Woods Fuoundation and who hired Obama, the Woods Fund.
Enough for the moment, but the one liking between Thomas Ayers and Bill Ayers was Obama, a Black man (that Thomas Ayers enjoyed promoting) and a marxist (that Bill Ayers thrived from) with a common seed being Frank Marshall Davis, a friend of Chicago foundations and radical reformers and marxists!
Obama is the package deal that the Ayers could never pass up to do their biddings on every level and in return, the Ayers gave Obama the tools and political clout to do it!
When Bill Ayres hit the headlines as a radical bomber a year or two later I still didn't put two and two together to realize that buried somewhere in our subscription list was the name of a local who was Daddy-O to the bomber.
It was much later, with the rise of Barack Obama, that I realized the connection between Obama's pal, Bill Ayers and our subscriber, Thomas Ayers.
I have never been able to dope out if Thomas Ayres was interested in subscribing to a firmly-right newsletter because he was a genuine conservative living in a posh neighborhood in an affluent, Republican suburb of Chicago near where I lived......or if he was actually a covert hard-core radical himself.
As head of a vast electric utilities company that personified capitalism and conservatism at the time, it's hard to decipher what side he was on, and how much he supported his son's radicalism, if he did at all.
Too late to find out now, Thomas Ayers lights went out permanently in 2007.

Obama appear to be Ayers’ slave boy, doing his bidding.
