Axelrod, Other Top Obama Advisers Served with Blago Subpoenas Dec. 8th
Don't get excited. Not going anywhere.
But there is a cute nugget at the end.
Among 43 subpoenas released by the Blagojevich administration Friday, one on Dec. 8 seeks any data relating to Obama advisers David Axelrod, Valerie Jarrett and 32 other people and organizations.
That was the day before the FBI arrested Blagojevich on charges that he tried to auction off Obama's Senate seat for campaign cash or a job. Wiretapped conversations show Blagojevich thought Jarrett was interested in the seat.
Obama's staff released a report in December clearing his advisers of wrongdoing in communicating with the two-term Democrat about the seat. But Axelrod, a Chicago political strategist now in the White House, was not mentioned.
Oversight? Or deliberately failing to mention Axelrod?
Thanks to TopSecretK9.
Related: Blago gave another strange press conference.
He claims he's being impeached because he won't allow the legislature to pass a tax hike, and also because he's a cowboy. Or something.
