Rod Blagojevich Press Conference
Vanity ^ | 2/19/20 | Lee Roggenburg

Posted on 02/19/2020 9:36:11 AM PST by LRoggy

If anyone is watching his press conference it will make Dem HEADS EXPLODE!

Calling the Dems racist, being gracious, giving Trump props for being a problem solver, not a normal politician not getting anything done.

And the Black guy next to him nodding yes about Trump being the real deal!!!

Three ‘witches’ on Outnumbered clawed Blagojevich up one side and down the other

After the press conference I thought/ hoped they would show a bit of chagrin, humility

No!....

“but because he thought it was the right thing to do?”

Yes, and he may be using this as a test or setup for others he needs to pardon.

A person at my work here was bemoaning this whole situation this morning, about POTUS “letting all those criminals go”.... She believes everything the MSM reports, as if it is 100% factual. It really annoys me that people who think/thought that 0bama is/was practically a saint, go all nutty over everything DJT does.

But it is a little entertaining, once I get past being annoyed by it.

Re: Blogo makes moving statement on first day of freedom. Mentions many interesting things AFTER Fox Business cut away.

ransomnote: can you link the video to our thread please. Must See TV with extra POPCORN

www.fox32chicago.com

to see entire Blago statement go to that website

Fox News cut away and I found the Chicago station that covered it all

At this time their newsreaders are commenting live on the air

Hopefully the website will archive the whole Blago statement

Recommend hearing his entire statement

Dark to Light

That was the most wonderful thing I’ve watched on live TV in a very long time. He got railroaded by the DNC Machine bigly. Yes he was/is flawed,but he got over-sentenced, and maybe lured into making those calls that were recorded and put him in prison. Please watch the whole statement somewhere like I did (www.fox32chicago.com), Fox Business cut away long before B was done speaking. Very great stuff not seen/ heard by many because they cut away to blab.

Yep. He has long held that card very, very tight and his big payday is now at hand. Blago will write a book with a lot of juicy details and he will make many millions. I have long suspected that this has been his plan and why he has relentlessly kept his mouth shut over the years.

“maybe lured into making those calls that were recorded”

LMAO. Blago knew he was under federal investigation and he knew he was wiretapped. He decided to make those calls anyway.

Even a world class con man trying to trap him couldn’t have planned for that level of stupidity...

I thought Melissa Francis was going to have a stroke. She really disliked what Blago said.

When stupid Fox Business cut away I saw the local feed channel they were using and went to it on my phone. Saw the rest of the statement and it was even better than the part Fox had on!

If that local Chicago channel didn’t archive it, it must be on YouTube, I hope.

He easily has enough stomach-turning dirt on the Illinois Dem party to disgust even the most worthless liberal, and then there is the national party. Several Illinois dems are already in the “indicted and going to federal prison” phase of their lifelong careers, and who knows what songs they will sing in order to knock a few years off.

Blago won’t do it until after the election, but what he owes (being from Chicago, I know how important paying back favors is) combined with a very vindictive Trump who is not running again leads me to believe that there will be a popcorn shortage starting in 2021.

This assumes that Blago won’t “commit suicide”, of course. Alive, he is a walking H-bomb for Dems.

They all cut away and most didn't cover it, too bad thee aren't any news stations any longer. At one time a CNN would cover news.

Epic stuff was said after the cut away

Hopefully the Chicago station archived it

(If not, YouTube will have it probably)

Blago’s reputation is void in virtually every place in America. He was trying to get something for the seat. Not really selling it, but he wanted something for it. Obama wanted it to go to his friend. The current governor, Pritzker was recorded trying to get the seat or give it to his sister. Many of Illinois’ top politicians were recorded but the feds did not release many of their conversations.

Blago ran a foul of the Obama machine. And they sent him away for as long as possible. Don’t expect Blago to be quiet. And don’t expect him to have any usefulness to Trump. Blago is stupid, hard working, a good family man, always in front of a microphone, and despised by all. His wife Patty does everything she can to keep him out of jail. She loves him.

She said it was ‘stomach turning’

I say put her in that top bunk with hardened criminals and see how her stomach turns.

Except for Boothe, they all sounded hateful and vindictive

Watching his wonderful wife and two daughters brought tears to my eyes. She stood by him and fought for him all the way. Not too many wives do that these days. Not for close to 8 years.
Dennis Kozlowski anyone? His wife couldn't wait to divorce him the moment he was put in jail.
