FBI Conducting Probe of Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr.

No wonder he is been in the hospital and out of the public eye! Surprise

Fox News Reports:

Federal prosecutors and the Federal Bureau of Investigation are in the final stages of a criminal probe into allegations that Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. misused campaign money to decorate his house, according to people familiar with the matter.

The probe of Mr. Jackson, a Democrat and the son of civil-rights leader the Rev. Jesse Jackson, is nearing completion, and attorneys for the lawmaker recently sought assurance from senior Justice Department officials to not seek an indictment before the November election, according to people familiar with the matter. Those people said the Justice Department officials refused to make such a promise, according to The Wall Street Journal.

A spokesman and a lawyer for Mr. Jackson didn’t immediately respond to messages Sunday seeking comment.

Mr. Jackson, 47 years old, represents a Chicago congressional district that heavily favors Democrats, and his re-election is likely.

Two things:

  • If he is being probed, if he has done anything wrong; I hope they nail him to the wall and throw the book at him.
  • If he is so horrible sick and under a doctor’s care, he should resign and let someone else, who can actually represent his people go to the hill and do the job. Because right now, he is leeching off taxpayers dollars.

But we all know, that because he is the right color and got the right family pedigree, none of the above will happen at all. This is just how it is; if you have the right color of skin and are a protected minority, you can do what you you wish, without having to give an account.

It is a sad thing, but it is the truth. FrustratedWaiting
