Illinois law placed no limits on political contributions until Jan. 1, and Emanuel made the most of the opportunity. He collected more than 70 contributions of $50,000 or more, accounting for roughly half the $10.5 million he raised by the end of last year. Those contributions alone were more than was raised by all of the other mayoral candidates combined.
Many of his biggest contributors live outside Chicago. He received large checks from New York (the financiers Roger Altman, Ronald Perelman and Donald Trump each gave $50,000); Silicon Valley ($50,000 from Steve Jobs); and especially Southern California, where Emanuel’s brother, Ari, a powerful Hollywood agent, raised money on his behalf. David Geffen gave $100,000, Steven Spielberg $75,000.
Watta phony. The entire system was rigged for his benefit. NOTE that when Obama put Rahm in as COS---Rahm's first move was to takeover the US Treasury---an unprecedented move. Wall Street operator Rahm Emanuel also put his brother, Dr Zeke, in charge of Medicare/Aid billions and O/Care trillions.
=====================================================
OHAHA'S GANGSTER GOVERNMENT SCAMMED TRILLIONS USING THE MADOFF MO Crooked Madoff created a super-secret labyrinth of interrelated international funds, institutions and financial entities of almost unparalleled complexity and breadth......with assets and businesses in multiple places overseas that hid thievery, money laundering and tax evasion.
"Law Professor" Obama surrounded himself with Wall Street shrewdies---like Chief Shrewdie Rahmn Emanuel. Wall Street knows how to make money disappear faster than a cream puff at a Weight Watcher weigh-in. Imagine the trillions stashed offshore...... tick tock, tick tock.....
How shocking ......./sarc
If anyone had a doubt that we’re truly losing
our country to the embedded, manipulative, power
hungry elites and slimey anti-American radicals,
surely they have to know there’s no longer a doubt.
God help us.
Why would Trump gibe Rahm 50K for mayor? Because Obama threw him under the bus? Because Trump has bad intentions on running to split us up?
” He received large checks from New York (the financiers Roger Altman, Ronald Perelman and Donald Trump each gave $50,000);”
Greasin’ the skids. Makes it much easier to do business if you’ve contributed to the local politicians. Big business does this all the time. And in Chicago,,, there was no doubt as to who was gonna win.
Trump campaign contributions.
A mixed bag. He is a biDemRepub but it looks more DNC loving to me.
