Who’d he piss off?

News that brings a smile to one’s face.

Someone didn’t get their payola.

It is almost like NY has become........well, another Chicago.

This reaches right up to the top with the disbanding of the Moreland Commission. We’ll see what deal Andy Cueball can cut to get out for this.

May we live to see Traitorobama, Traitorholder, Traitorkerry, and Traitorhillary led away in FBI handcuffs (or tazed while trying to escape). There will be dancing in the streets!

OPM:
“Most powerful” as determined by who?

Let me give you a hint: is it the NY media who has been the recipient of Silver’s “largess” (in the larger-sense)? How many journalists (OK, quotes around journalist are no longer meaningful!) have arranged for an audience with Shelly to get inside info or, at least, an expensive meal/drunk?

Now the media has a find another ^insider^ to buy them expensive wine and steak dinners, until the inevitable happens.

America says...meh.

NEXT!

Q: What do you call New York’s most powerful politician taken away in FBI handcuffs?

A: A good start.

If you are not a regular reader of NY Post editor Michael Goodwin, you are missing out. Big time.

What?
No orange jumpsuit ‘Frog March’ Video?.....................

I wouldn’t expect anything to come of this. He has too much on too many people, including judicial arena. Huey Long rides again...only in NY and not LA.

“Mayor de Blasio described Silver as “a man of integrity even on the DAY he was charged with taking bribes of nearly $4 million.””

And what’s Cuomo hiding?

[Cementjungle]

No orange jumpsuit ‘Frog March’ Video?.....................

Out instantly on a mere $200K bail. The MSM will ignore the story and by the time his trial/plea bargain comes around no one will be paying attention. Pay a fine, get probation and get back to business as usual.

And just think--the filth of corruption touches and stains literally every point of government in America. As familiarity breeds contempt, absolute power corrupts.

It can neither stop nor help itself.

It is a self-ordained, built-in prophesy.

Rumor has it Cuomo threw him under the bus, to save his own skin.

"...this scandal the biggest, the worst that ever happened in NY, Clinton’s cushy contributions conduit may not be as engorged as it once was. She, herself, may shed some Teflon thanks to Silver’s slide from political grace.

If they really have this Shelly Silver dude, by the yah yah and squeezing, he will not only sing like a canary he'll sing in high tenor. This could be a huge domino effect. Don't take the rap all by yourself Shelly; take about 100 crooked New York politicians down with you.
