Claim: Rahm Emanuel on 21 Different Calls with Blago About Senate Seat, All Taped by the Feds

And those are the ones they taped. Who knows if a couple were made on non-bugged phones.

No contacts? Really dude?

Jesse Jackson, Jr. Working With the Feds Since Last Summer? I'm not buying this. If it were true, then JJJ helped arrange a sting on Blago, with the Jackson Family playing along to set him up.

Possible? Sure. But I don't buy it.

More likely the claim comes from JJJ's camp itself and by "working with" the feds regarding Blago, he means answering questions in the long ongoing inquiry.

Which is hardly a big deal. Or proof of innocence.

Blago Adviser Pleads Guilty to Unrelated Charges: About unreported gambling income. But he still might have some interesting tales to tell:

He was not charged with conduct related to state deals but is widely known to be under scrutiny for fund-raising schemes under Blagojevich.
