Putin got $40 billion somehow while he was head honcho of Russia. Of course that is impossible in the USA.

As much as I dislike Huck, I suggest folks read the comments on that article. There seems to be some dispute on whether he received the payments while he was sitting as governor, as well as dispute on the business the company was/is in.

I would like to know what they “consulted” him about.

THIS . . . is the real problem in the story. The 2006 debacle was about GOP corruption scandals, most of which were money related. Cunningham back-stabbed the party by being that dirty.

This is the reverse of the coin when people want to attack the rich. Yes, they are richer than others. But it also means they won’t be bribed by $35,000.
