More Hired Truck Nonsense

  • Former Hired Truck kingpin Michael Tadin has snared a three-year, $39.4 million contract to operate and maintain one of three waste-transfer stations that Mayor Daley once attempted to lease.

    Tadin-owned MAT Leasing was chosen to operate the largest of the three facilities at 750 N. Kilbourn -- where city crews once sorted through garbage for recyclables in blue bags -- after assembling a subcontracting team that includes two firms that cashed in on the scandal-plagued Hired Truck program.

  • Tadin is the perennial city trucking magnate whose $1.25 million loan to a security company co-owned by then-Ald. Patrick Huels (11th) forced the 1997 resignation of Daley's former City Council floor leader. Tadin's trucking company had received a $1.1 million city subsidy with Huels' help.
It never ends. Ever.

Why lease it when you can get guaranteed kickbacks?

A company that has, hypothetically speaking, little or no ties to Shortshanks is less likely to play ball when the times come to stuff and distribute the envelopes around.

Michael Tadin is a longtime Daley/Machine hack that knows what time it is ($$$$$$).

And if history is any indicator, this facility will be run into the ground in record time once graft, greed, corruption, clout and cronyism make their appearance at 750 N. Kilbourn.

And mark my words: this is the precursor to paying for residential garbage pick-up in Chicago.

Hmmmm...

Why does it seem like 42 extra-short's affiliates who have been lying low for a while are suddenly starting to pop up like dandelions after a spring rain?

OR?

Is shortshanks appealing to their greed to get them to come back to the fold (within arms reach)?

Hmmmm...

An emerging pattern?

Is "shortshanks the federal mole/informant" hard at work?

Is Tadin being brought back in to get set up?

Will he share Michael Scott's fate along with the other daley inc. affiliate who took poison/pills in his escalade?

Is shorty exercising his immunity and making moves on orders of the G?

Who in daley inc. ISN'T wired up?

Which informants are informing on the informants who informed already?

A den of straight up fuckin' iniquity populated by treacherous turncoats, cut throats, false-flaggers, slack-jackers, jag-offs, flunkies, morons, half-wits, ass-kissers, knee-walkers, cock suckers, wool pullers & doo-doo chasers...

damn... and these fucklings have the nerve to shit talk coppers for not kissing shorty's ass?

At least the Policeman has his integrity intact!

They know this and hate us for it.

Meanwhile...

We're betting Tadin is on borrowed time as shorty seeks to dispose of those who can compromise him.

HEY! Isn't Sorich getting out of the joint soon? He seems to have been the smartest of the idiots... hopefully he has an envelope stashed somewhere that's labeled, "in the event of my mysterious/unplanned for demise, READ THIS & FORWARD TO NATIONAL & INTERNATIONAL MEDIA!

Id love to see him with his own local tv show, it would be another thorn in the side of shortshanks. If you agree contact Fox Chicago and let them know. No other local talk show host is even close to Mancow when it comes to calling out city hall. In todays world its all about media perception the sheep in the streets hardly hear one negative thing from the media about the inner workings of city hall.

Yes, I am ssure that many people are sick and tired of reading day in and day out of insider deals and contracts, reduced property taxes for the clout heavy, jobs and promotions for the people with connections, family members groomed to assume elected office. The "political class" know this and really do not care what the voters are sick of. They know that soon after the headlines are over, people will forget and vote for the slated democrats. It has happended time and again over the years. Daley. Madigan. White,Beavers, etc. etc etc.The "reform laws" passed in the Illinois State Legislature last year are now in the process of being watered down with new bills. It never stops. Term limits and more prosecutions are what is needed. Daley will run again, refuse to debate, a weak candidate will be fielded against him ( Brown or Rush) and he will win again. Whats new about that??

Now THAT's what we're talkin' about!

We're of "certain enough age" to remember the Chicago Today, (that was our paper for evening reading on the el ride home from work) but damn do we shed a tear for The Chicago Daily News! Great conservative leaning paper that wasn't dumbed down. It was our joy as a wee lad to sit with the old man and swap sections and talk about the news of the day.

The Chicago American has us stumped so perhaps we're not quite of "damn certain age." ;^)

...but thanks for the short amble down memory lane.

Any conservative multi-millionaires want to give shortshanks a massive stroke, shit hemorrhage & grabber by firing up a REAL rip-roaring, muckraking, editors & investigative reporters are actually worth a shit conservative, hard-eyed, step on their foot & punch their front teeth out at the same time newspaper?

Something to counterbalance the current slate of Pravda-esque, trotskyite, limp wristed, yellow journalistic, liberal-pinky, dead crack-hoe having more morals (truly sorry to offend the dead crack-hoes), slanted-ass fuckery known as the local media?

A deep, soul stirring purgative & a high, uplifting colonic to them.

#2. One of the finest gentlemen to ever work for the Chicago Police Department was fired as Police Chief in Berwyn, effective tomorrow (thursday). That's right, Bill Kushner pushed out by the new mayor, who wants his guy. We can only hope that maybe now he would consider recuing this department.

HAA-HAAA!

We see the scum-times online had an article about Mauer tearing the hide off Andolino regarding the security shortfall at O'hare and his subsequent fraudulent discharge for daring to be a squeaky wheel in agitating for extra manpower. They would rather spend the money (hellooo arbitrator Benn?) on unneeded expansion than to use it to safeguard the airport. Daley Inc. doesn't give a fuck about the safety of the public or first responders. It's all about his friends and family getting their dicks wet in the various orifices of the taxpayer then having the gall to make the tax payer pay for the privilege of getting fucked.

"You'll get nothing and be glad we gave it to you" is the Daley Inc. mantra to anyone who is a captive and has to work for a living.

These Daley Inc. assholes are just like the ante-bellum slave owners. They haven't earned/done shit with their own hands or by the sweat of their own brow... They always had a city of captives to steal from.

The precious fruits of a working man's labors have not been his own in this town for years!

This is why the section 8-ers, the link carders, The "i got asthma, i need to go to the hospital cuz i just ran from the Police for 3 blocks with dope or a pistol" mutts and all of the other active non-contributors have it made and get more and better shit than people who get that ass up & go to work!

Daley Inc. going through your left pocket...

The new catered to constituency going through your right pocket...

We hope Mauer gives the Daley Inc. hacks a severe case of the runny bowels!

Man, is the bullshit in this place getting ever so thick!!!

SOMETHING is going the fuck on!

Tadin shows up on the radar one day then Chico shows up the next and Sorich is getting out of the joint soon? Shortshanks is subpoenaed to testify at a corruption trial and the alderfools are falling all over each other trying to not justify giving the I.G. REAL investigative authority into their bullshit?

The Michael Scott incident is simmering and no doubt they're trying like hell to keep a lid on it. (LOTS of broke ass pissed off heavy-hitters with shit in their hands after buying up now WORTHLESS real estate around Douglas Park to make a killing on the failed "O-limpdick" bid?)

The SCOTUS is likely going to strike down the city's illegal gun ban?

Is the "perfect storm" approaching?

Is 42 extra-short's end game afoot?

Is shortshanks in the driver's seat of the mayoral pool car and the steering wheel has come loose & he has no brakes, spinning on black ice and is shitting his pants & screaming for SOMEBODY to do SOMETHING? (hah, we made a funny)

Watching this shit unfold might be funner than watching the Friday Night Fish-Fry, Fashion Show, Wig Snatch & Fist Fight on a hot summer night in 011...

These developments need to be monitored!

Regardless of what you think of Mauer he pretty much tells it like it is. I'm sure Shortshanks wil be mumbling something stupid in regards to this. This could get very interesting.

Having a hi-profile,highly political spot like the airport had to be a huge headache, and I honestly believe he felt the citizens were in grave danger. Butting heads with the Mayors inner POLI-TWATS( that includes O'Connor,Andelino,Byrne,Chico &Huberman etc) will get you dumped even it is life/death. These immoral thiefs look at nothing but THEIR bottom lines. Don't hold back Jimmy, the problems in Aviation,Strt&San,C.P.D are all the same thing and related,but watch your back.

It feels like he owns the city and it's his personal property and we are just living on his land. It's the same feeling as if you were at someone's house visiting or vacationing at a resort. It just feels like chicago is Daley's land and he can say and do whatever he wants on his land and no one ever questions him. Very Sad.
