Here it is, Bob.

NYP—PAGE SIX Senator’s husband stands to profit big from government deal / By Richard Johnson

http://pagesix.com/2015/01/16/senators-husband-stands-to-profit-from-government-deal/?_ga=1.137700920.922370688.1421462337

Ever wonder how lowly paid lawmakers leave office filthy rich? Sen. Dianne Feinstein is showing how it’s done.

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. Most voters didn’t notice that Blum is a member of CBRE’s board and served as chairman from 2001 to 2014.

This feat of federal spousal support was ignored by the media after Feinstein’s office said the senator, whose wealth is pegged at $70 million, had nothing to do with the USPS decisions. When the national debt is $18 trillion, a billion seems like small change.

The other half of the story is that Richard Blum has been in it with Pelosi’s husband.

Thanks, Liz; with all the archiving I do, I should have covered all this a long time ago. We know of at least two senators who are billionaires: DiFi and Dick Durbin. Nancy Pelosi claimed a net worth of $50 mil about the year 2000... now is anyone's guess.

Let us not forget that the 🐀 Party is the party of the little guy!

How is this legal and NOT corruption? Who writes the laws?
