NY Post ^

The US Postal Service plans to sell 56 buildings — so it can lease space more expensively — and the real estate company of the California senator’s husband, Richard Blum, is set to pocket about $1 billion in commissions.

Blum’s company, CBRE, was selected in March 2011 as the sole real estate agent on sales expected to fetch $19 billion.

When this hag Feinswine was on the Senate Armed Services committee, she funneled defense contracts to companies controlled by her husband.

This was reported at the time but Drive Bys didn’t say much about it.

We lost our USPS sorting center in south-east WA because we had a Republican rep.

A republican owned the local Jeep dealership and lost it in the Chrysler bailout.

If Dianne Feinstein was the only or even one of a few Washingtonians that padded their bank accounts with insider deals like this, it would be a scandal. But sad to say, she is only one part of the vast majority of elected officials that have used inside knowledge and outright graft to make their golden years literally GOLD.
They arrive in Washington as a man/woman of the common folk, a person (usually a lawyer) from the upper middle class with ideals and honor. Ten to fifty years later they leave as multi millionaires, some even approaching billionaire status. On $175,00.00 plus tips a year?
Why did I start the countdown to wealth at 10 years? Because, the honest, honorable people do not last 10 years in that place.

Including the import of “assault weapons” from China that were granted wavers for after the assault weapon ban was passed when billy Jeff buttafuco was spraying his DNA all over in the Oval office pantry.

Ya think. He and she have been doing sweetheart deals especially with China for years. That’s how she could afford her mansion in CA while the little people don’t.

All of you California residents and everybody interested in Blum and Feinstein -—and other scum-— checkout a site at uhuh.com and the Calfraud pages. Loaded with good stuff.

I was trying to recall the name of Blum’s goodbuddy COSCO triad partner Li Ka-shing and went there.

They also have interesting accounts of his ripping off union pension funds. But I would bet that union brass still support Feinswine.
