Toddlin' Town, Chicago, ILL

It is "Blagomania" in the Windy City of Chicago today.

Today the jury involved with the ex-Gov. of Illinois, Rod Blagojevich is nearly a verdict on at least 2 of the criminal counts that he is facing.

The Jury sent a note to U.S. District Judge James Zagel, and signaled they "may be getting close to wrapping up their negotiations" and that a "partial" verdict could be announced as soon as the next half hour or sometime this afternoon.

The jury asked Zagel for clarification on two main sticking points in their negotiations....

First, they requested a copy of the oath that they took when they were sent to deliberate the case against former Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

"Do you and each of you solemnly swear that you will well and truly try and a true deliverance make between the United States and ______, the defendant at the bar, and a true verdict render according to the evidence, so help you God?"

Second, they asked Zagel how to fill out a verdict form when they can't agree on a specific count. "Do we leave it blank or report the vote split?" the note asked.

Zagel agreed to send a copy of the oath to jurors and said he would also instruct them to write on top of the verdict form if they cannot reach a consensus on a count. Blagojevich and his brother, Robert, is to remain no more than 30 minutes from the courthouse.

So, in my legal opinion....and trust me....I don't have a legal background, but I do know politics better than most....(he he he) Blago "walks" on these two counts.

Let's see if I am right on or off the "mark" on this one...
BTW... we need more "openly" corrupt politicians in America. It beats those sitting in the seedy "dark closets" like those here in city halls all over Southern California.

Right on, ROD!

Meet Randy Economy

You may know me from my role as the Senior Advisor and Official Media Spokesman for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign that established a worldwide blitz of interviews. I conducted more than 2,200 media interviews on behalf of “The People’s Recall” during a 10-month period from November 2020 to September 2021. The iconic magazine Mother Jones in a dramatic feature article called me “A ‘Superhero Pirate’ Radio Host, (and) Gavin Newsom’s Strangest—and Most Dangerous—Threat. Meet Randy Economy, the man behind the effort to recall California’s governor.” I appeared on more than 330 media outlets around the world in my capacity with RecallGavin2020. Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Newsmax, NBC Nightly News, ABC News, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Politico, and dozens of other media outlets aired featured reports on my work on behalf of “The People’s Recall.” I am and will always consider myself to be a journalist. Sometimes I think I bleed ink. My talents as an Investigative Journalists in California earned me FIVE top awards from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club in 2013, 2014, and 2016. I am tenacious. My reporting over the years has led to the prosecution of several elected officials in California. While working for a tiny community newspaper in Southeast Los Angeles County, I worked doggedly to expose the biggest public corruption case in Los Angeles County history when I unearthed a massive pay to play scheme inside the Assessor’s Office that led to the arrest of then Assessor John R. Noguez and four others. However, politics has been in my DNA since I was a child. I have worked on more than 300 political campaigns as a consultant and advisor since 1982 for candidates from all sides of the political spectrum including Democrats and Republicans, and even Libertarians. I am also a small business owner, serving as the President and CEO of Hot Water Studio & Production, LLC. My company works with media outlets across the state, nation, and world exposing public corruption via several new media platforms. I have also overcome personal challenges. I am legally blind with zero vision in my right eye and only 40 percent vision remaining in my left eye. I sometimes wear an eyepatch due to my failed vision. (Hence the nickname of “America’s Political Pirate.”
