*** UPDATED x2 - President Cullerton responds; Sen. Cullerton’s attorney responds *** Sen. Tom Cullerton indicted
Friday, Aug 2, 2019 - Posted by Rich Miller * Click here to read the indictment…
I just saw Cullerton the other day. He didn’t appear to have a care in the world. Either he’s a great actor or he didn’t see this one coming. …Adding… To be clear, I saw Cullerton on Monday at the Illinois vs. Missouri softball game. On Tuesday, the feds announced that Coli was cooperating with them. He might have had a different demeanor that day. * From the press release…
* If you read the indictment, it looks like Coli flipped on him…
* Keep an eye on the live coverage post for more, but these place-holder stories will likely be updated soon…
*** UPDATE *** John Theis, Attorney for Tom Cullerton…
It’s a federal crime to claim you worked for a union on your union time sheets when you didn’t perform such work. So, this can be a pretty simple matter of comparing his union time sheets to his Springfield session days and his campaign work. …Adding… Also, Cullerton’s attorney is married to Illinois Supreme Court Justice Mary Jane Theis. Small town. * Hmm…
*** UPDATE 2 *** From Senate President John Cullerton’s spokesman John Patterson…

Thursday, Aug 1, 2019 - Posted by Rich Miller * Except for bill signings, this is normally one of the worst times of the year for yours truly to find stories. Campaigns haven’t yet started, people are on vacation, news is generally slow and my old pontoon boat looks a lot more inviting. The Illinois State Fair doesn’t start for a week and Governor’s Day and Republican Day are about two weeks away. So, I’m gonna take the rest of this week off and probably all or most of next week. One of the nice things about this blog is that it kinda lives and breathes on its own. You have the RSS feeds and the Twitter feeds on the right side of the page, and there’s the live coverage post just below this one. You’ll be fine. If you have a State Fair event you want publicized, please make sure to send me an email and I’ll put it in my annual compilation when I return. Until then, take care and try to get some rest and relaxation. I know I will. * Let’s go really old school… You’ll wish that summer could always be here
