Do you have a source for your contention that Daley gets “tons of $$$ in bribes from gangs and organized crime”? I imagine that might make the news, even in Chicago.
It's an open secret in Chicago that the entire city is run by the mob and the gangs. It's the most corrupt city in the US.
Have you ever read ANYTHING regarding the history of Chicago politics and mob ties?
Unqualified, non-performing, “connected” people replacing those who are competent, but refuse to play along?
Do you really believe this is simply the stuff of novels and movie fiction?
