Best political news I’ve seen in years, “Sheldon Silver, Speaker of New York Assembly, Is Accused of Taking Millions in Graft.”
“… Mr. Silver surrendered to Federal Bureau of Investigation agents early Thursday morning in Lower Manhattan, law enforcement officials said. Mr. Silver, before entering 26 Federal Plaza, said, “I hope I’ll be vindicated.” …”
And I hope to win this week’s Powerball.
That statement does not express much confidence.
Here is a link to the complaint against him and here is a picture of Shelly handcuffed in the back of a cop car.

The question that immediately comes to mind is, how many people will Shelly roll over on to save his own ass? …..
so Jacob. Do u think Andy is getting nervous now??
This guy headed up a den of criminals who dedicated themselves to persecuting us, the best and most decent of NY’s minority of law abiding tax payers, destroying our constitution, and our country. All for nothing but politics, and his personal corrupt gain. I hope FUAC is sitting in his office, shitting pickles and choking on every bite of his dinner waiting for the other shoe to come down (this fed prosecutor is looking up his ass too). Let poetic justice be served when Shelly spends the rest of his life in jail getting all the hate and malice he projected at us pounded right back up his ass.
Made my day yesterday. I’m still smiling over this one. 🙂
