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.

It pays to belong to the “CLUB”

And here I am about to lose my home despite all efforts to get enough work to pay the bills and an elitetist uses his government connections to milk the system. It’s never been this bad for me financially. I had 6 figure years for decades.

[Veto!]

Not news. If Difi’s hub Richard Blum did NOT profit on bills she pushed, THAT would rate major worldwide headlines.

Nancy Pelosi’s net worth has gone up by some 2600% during her time in congress.

I stole it from someone else.

Surely you know that we are in a “recovery!”

I know the feeling, my business income is less than 1/3 of what it was when the Rats took over congress in ‘07.

And the newspapers are always talking about the booming economy.

They’re both going to burn in hell.

I wish we could watch them burn right here on planet earth.

Boxers net worth has increased rather substantially since her entrance to public office as well ever since she was a state senator

The EXEMPT are rulers of America
paid for by Taxpayers;
and the taxpayers have been SOLD OUT
by the treasonous EXEMPT
... every single day.

bth houses of congress seem to behave like the “house of lords”

Gotta figure, most of them are looking for the big payoff when they finally leave Washington.

Remember Bart Stupak and the big struggle the democrats put up to get his final vote for Obamacare? He gave them their vote and walked away with a prized partnership with the premier DC lobbying firm of Venable LLP. His areas of expertise also landed him in the profit zone of Obamacare.

Holy crap on the Feinstein scheme! Wow, a sweetheart deal if there ever was one.

CBRE is a clod of a company. They have in their 10k that they have an inherent conflict because they represent both tenants and landlords. Very much of a conflict.
