Out-Bribed
There never was an actual investigation (or audit) into how many suitcases of unmarked cash Shortshanks dished to the International Olympic Committee in Copenhagen, but it obviously wasn't enough:
- A jailed former governor of Rio de Janeiro state told a judge on Thursday that he paid about $2 million for the votes of International Olympic Committee members to award the Brazilian city the 2016 Summer Games.
Sergio Cabral said he paid $1.5 million in bribes through intermediaries to the former president of the International Association of Athletics Federations, Lamine Diack, originally in exchange for up to six votes in the meeting that awarded Rio the Olympic and Paralympic Games. The former governor added that another $500,000 was paid later to Diack’s son with the aim of securing three more votes of IOC members for Rio.
The former governor said he bought the votes for Rio to get to "the second stage of the vote" and that "no votes were bought after that."

Rahm and Obama may have lost the vote, but Chicago and Illinois won the day.
Hell is awaiting that stuttering prick daley's arrival
The best part was the many rumors of
Shortshank's grand mal melt-down on the
flight back to Chicago.
Drunk...
Crying...
Cursing...
Yelling...
Slapping and Kicking his man-servants.
And very likely shitting himself because the
Fed was all up in his ass like cheap tissue...
That he was allowed to escape being
stood on a gallows and hanged for stealing some $85 Million
from muni employee pension funds for this, (with the
lion's share from the Police Pension fund) will always
be an unrequited grievance for us and many others.
Now you know why they never, ever considered putting the Olympics at permanent sites, like Greece and Switzerland.
There is too much money to be siphoned off by these August Devoted Arbiters of Amateur Athletic Sports.
Damn it, they have a hard life of conferences and committee meetings at five star hotels in exotic locations.
An endless dreary cycle of banquets and awards they are suffering through.
They rarely get to satisfy their pedophile urges like many of the coaches, team doctors, and trainer staff do.
These illicit millions of dollars are a fair compensation that they deserve!
Think of the Bureaucrats!
The IOC are a bunch of prick teasers who play hard to
get just before closing time
Just say NO to these traveling shit shows.
They destroy every city that hosts them.
Corrupt to the core.
You know why all these high school stadiums and
sports complexes look like the Taj Mahal?
TITLE 9. Equal opportunity for females for sports
scholarships to college. With what we know about
CTE, it's a fucking sin to expose these kids to head
trauma that may take years to present.
The fucking schools are immune from lawsuits.
High schools feed the colleges, who in turn feed the
NFL and NBA. You want your kid to be treated like
an animal? Join sports (the fucking big lie says it
keeps kids off drugs-----until they have to see the pain
Doctor for injuries).
IOC probably teeming with sexual perverts in suits
Shortshanks the Teflon Don, You made you'r Brigdeport connected Boy's Rich in the Hired Truck Scam How much 250 Million on the low side,This is Jail time in Other States.
Shanks brought an envelope to a brief case party.
The world is full of corruption at all levels and these idiots want to import tens of millions of these to overturn American society. Enjoy the last years of this country as it presently exists. It will reflect the values of the USSR, North Korea, China, Nigeria and Venezuela quite soon. Then the next battle will be waged. I hope you enjoy the devastation, you've earned it.
Chicago does not pay bribes... It only receives them and only for those who are Aldermen.
Best 2,5 million spent for Chicago. By a Brazilian. We dodged a bullet there.
I was listening intently on my am radio while patrolling the mean streets in 001 and was the first to announce on the zone that Chicago was knocked out of the running in the first round. It made my day! Shortshanks would have raped this city had Shitcago been selected. Fortunately that prick retired into obscurity.
It was great to see CROOK County and the Daley democrats get owned. Truly the heart of blue America. Fuck them and the Olympics too.
Shanks lives by the motto " dat you always go home with more treasure dan you started da day wit, never give nuttin away scarmooch. Trow him a couple of beef sammiches and some za and he'll want to marry you. Dose coppers marching around city hall is why we lost da 'lympics.
There’s a sublime joy in knowing that Chicago was outbid. Yes, Shortshanks tried to buy the Olympics. Yes, he tried every way to cheat. But he failed because the Brazilians are better at bribery. Shortshanks, how do you fuck that up?
Hahaha
where is Shortshanks hiding??! someone should put his ugly face on a milk carton.....
Every time I hear this story, I have to tune into the YouTube video of the late, great, Peter Allen prancing with his feathered boa and midriff top singing "Rio".I
I do miss Peter.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
(OT) The liberal utopia the anti-police anti-America pro illegal immigrants, from democrat state looks like the land of fruits and nuts is shaking;

Shanks definitely was involved in something like this or even bigger, with a petition circulating about the forensic audit of the Chicago Police Pension fund which must be done will they find out who allowed daleys nephews and friends to take over 60 million from our pension fund and blow it On a a terrible real estate deal?
On Friday, 02 October 2009, the collective gasp from the crowd gathered at Daley Plaza was heard round the world! Chicago 2016 hit the dumpster of broken dreams. In retrospect, the IOC really did us a solid that day!
Off-topic but great;
Kid Rock said fuck Colin Kaepernick while performing born free at Fenway Park in Boston

The washed up quarterback got Nike to stop producing the American shoes, say what you want to buy kid rock but he is definitely a United States patriot.
Chicago really dodged a bullet with this decision.
Three years later and the loss on the deal would still be unknown and growing.
Hi-fucking-larious!! Daley and his minions got OUTCROOKED! If Daley had managed to steal the Olympics from Brazil, we would have been stuck with that asshole til the looting was done. It drove him into retirement. Being out thieved gave us Rahm Emmanuel, who knew there was more gristle to be picked off the bones of this city. Even that shithead knows there's nothing left on the corpse to pick, so he left....it really says where this place is headed to. Fucking scary..
One can only hope that the feds, now paying attention to the Chicago political shenanigans, can also work their way around to visit any Chicago Olympic deals as well.
"Let The Games Begin!"
Bur, But we had Oprah involved. How could we not have gotten it? Oh yeah she didn't pony up any of HER money.
Bwahahaha! There was some smartass on each zone notifying everyone listening that day that Chicago got knocked out the first round. I was kinda shocked...I really thought Chicago and Daley were corrupt enough to get the bid.
Hey, remember when it was coming to Chicago??
Why doesn’t reform minded Lori announce a forensic audit of all city funds, and promise to make it public? Ditto for Toni P. and Cook County Funds. Let’s put it all out there Ladies.
They grifters still made out well with the abandoned Michael Reese Hospital $100 million buy out, commissions, interest on the loan for some demolition and subsequent resale. Remember Rahm refinance that land, saved $4 mil in interest, thank you very much says the re-if broker and bank. What’s the monthly nut on 5.95% on $90 mil?
Somewhere in that original deal at least $20 million of interest accrued before the refi.
Couldn’t sell the wasteland to Amazon, now they’re banking on a possible casino site (yeah right) but ultimately it’s just going to be another freeloader subsidized Section 8 tenement colony.
Bottom line and before any reconstruction dust settles, the property value is basically flat at best, absolutely no gains will go back into the raided city taxpayer coffers now that it may be finally sold off.
No difference between this Olympic Village scheme than what Paul Manafort was accused of and sent to prison for.
Someone lobbied ShortShanks into the idea, had the city buy that property without a contingency, secured investors and loans, all with money that had no guarantees to the taxpayer other than short lived grandiose sporting event promise.
Lots of background in that area of the 4th Ward and all the players from obama to Prickwrinkle.
Maybe something will come in the way of prison for more Chicago Dems.
Not to speak of all the mysterious deaths that popped up thereafter either.
You would think nobody could outbribe a contingent from Chicago.
(OT) As we know due to the city of Chicago fiscal mismanagement We know that the elected people that stole from her pension fund that never made sure that it was fully funded should be wearing handcuffs and in a penitentiary.
Chicago’s pension debt overshadows improvements
https://chicago.suntimes.com/city-hall/2019/7/5/20683547/chicago-pension-debt-annual-financial-report
With the legal weed coming to state of Illinois is going to text it at a very high rate why not the city of Chicago to County of Cook this state is looking at a 20% tax on this why not add another 2030% for the city and finally take care of the pensions I know how it is assholes are going to be walking around hires kites who cares this is what the Democrats want you think they care about an extra tax they will get the money from somewhere who cares anymore just find a damn pension. With a petition going around also for a audit of the Chicago police pension funds This could get interesting let’s see who gave for instance the Daley family the 60+ millions of dollars for that terrible real estate investment who signed off on it and why and where they paid off and how much?
Did Shanks include any of our pension money in his bribe??
Shanks should be in jail. Instead he collects (3) government pensions, has Cadillac healthcare for life and has several six figure retirement jobs.
What’s wrong with that picture?
we got lucky we didn't get the olympics
Just think of all the money lost by the connected. LOL glad the city got beat or bought out. You would be paying for that fiasco for the rest of the century.
Rest ôf the world doesn't care about Chicago clout. Money talks Obummer BS walks.
Kind of makes you wonder where does all the money go...IT AINT MAGIC but it's disappearing!!!
I hope Shortshanks and Rahm both rot in Hell.
As other posters have said, we definitely dodged a bullet there.
Thanks to Sergio Cabral from saving us from this idiocy. Is he still in jail? Maybe I can send him some homemade treats and pastries as a consolation prize :-)
Chicago Final Jeopardy answer:
Who WAS Michael Scott?
Lots of funny shit with Shortshanks
flying to Copenhagen with suitcases
full of city employee pension money
to grease the rails for the Chicago
bid.
Lots of funny shit with shadowy characters
buying up all the vacant properties around
Douglas Park with Shortshank's most reliable
black button-man Michael Scott serving as a
"medium."
Whenever Shortshanks needed to put a black
face on something and still be in control
of it, he chose Michael Scott.
Scott was back and forth as a "fixer"
for years...
That's how they get you...
Make you feel like you're somehow
"invaluable" to them.
If you hit your lick?
Get the fuck out and stay gone.
The more you come back to be
"invaluable" the more imminently
disposable you become.
Well... The Chicago bid imploded gloriously
and the shadowy characters were now all in
on property that was worth double dick-all
because the "sure thing" O-limp-dick bid
fucking cratered when those slick "yer-peens"
showed a dumb-ass hick like Daley what REAL
skullduggery, fuckery and bribery was.
Daley got rolled like a drunk Bulls fan
falling for the charms of a 6'3' woman with
a 9 o'clock shadow and lipstick from when
the "Mad-House on Madison" was on the other side...
M/fers who were behind the m/fers started wanting
their money back and Shortshanks was in a pinch.
No?
Poor Michael Scott...
Got the phone call that the Feds wanted a chat.
"Congrats! We have an indictment with your name on it!"
Disremember details but word was he was trying
desperately to call Daley's gate-keeper
Jackie Heard...
It would seem that Jackie was told NOT
to take any of Scott's calls and Scott
was left hanging in a bad way by
Shortshanks.
Where IS Jackie?
Did she vanish into the depths
of the Witness Protection program?
How Shortshanks eluded being stood on a
gallows and dangled is a sore point for
those who believe that criminals eventually
get punished.
Too bad that those who now pass themselves off
as investigative reporters here in Chicago are
nothing but a bunch of contemptible, craven,
hypocritical, knee-walking, reeking and leaking
journalistic anal-whores rotting head-first in
the catch basin of due diligence.
The Policeman asks:
"What's that smell?"
Only to be greeted by a bunch of the usuals
standing around with their hands in their
pockets with their eyes cast upward as if
to ask the sky, "Why?"
Motherfuck this seething shit-pit of a city.
Flaming debris and bloody shit-mud flowing
through the streets like a river but it's
The Policeman's fault.
Police Like You Have No Friends.
Look.
Point & Laugh.
Leave.
"WAH! Those out-of-control, reform and accountability
resisting Cops are on that RACIST blog being mean,
hostile and intolerant again! Aren't there rules
against being that way?"
For those of you who actually think the feds are cleaning up Chicago... two words...Dream on. John Lausch is too busy doing photo ops with lying hypocrite Lori who again today hired another Rahm appointee to be City comptroller. Another Indian woman of color formerly of aviation. Southwest side democratic scum clout again. Lori is a fake phony who was put into office by Lausch by doing the big show fake Burke nonsense which took out Mendoza and Preckwinkle added to apathy and let lori walk in based on her fake reformer credentials fueled by Rahm’s media especially Chris Fusco at the scum times and fake Bruce dold of the tribune. And for those who say Lausch is a trump appointed guy, he is a combine RINO like Edgar and Kirk Dillard who actually did a commercial for Obama. I’ll believe Lausch is Legit when Rahm, Daley, Cullerton and Madigan go down. And that will never happen. The swamp protects the Chicago democrats.
That's how its done on the big stage. No penty anti moves for the IOC. The big leagues play hard ball. Obama and Oprah got schooled.
Shanks brought an envelope to a brief case party.
7/06/2019 01:21:00 AM
Great Line. LOL
Hey Short Shanks, feel that warm yellow liquid splashing on your head. That's the public urinating on you again. You will never live it down. Hide in the shadows, never allow to be interviewed for the past years and all the time thinking you've beat the system again. Then out of nowhere the corruption still finds a way to bit you in the ass. Thanks for the great memories and laughs. Hoping you soiled your Depends again rethinking this one.
Maybe better is to hear your explanation to Obama and all on what went wrong. Love the commentary from CNN. They had a nice big bit of your "shit sandwich" too. Thanks for the memories. Now go back to obscurity.
So now, Shortshanks is "too infirm"
to prosecute for his crimes.
Right?
But it was ok to make a Hollywood production
out of putting Jon Burge on for something
that was never proven other than "lying to the
FBI" and even that was sketchy if you think
about it...
Just sayin'...
How about midget number 2 Rham giving that smoldering air polluter scrap yard on the Northside a 3 year permit to operate? He then quits and gives his family fresh air and leaves the Northsiders to suffer. Aldercreature Brian Hopkins only does a little grand standing when he should be calling for a federal investigation of the little rat and all of the so called lobbyists who are nothing but bagmen for the corrupt ex mayors.

Burge should have filed a lawsuit against his attorneys who told him to testify always take the fifth! I'll never forget his fundraiser at Teamster city great man and boss.

Compounding the mystery, they say, is the fact that their father’s $1 million life insurance policy was two weeks from maturing when he died. Because his death was ruled a suicide, the insurance company paid virtually no death-benefit claim, according to Scott’s family. In the end, says Monique, the insurance company sent her and her brother each a check for $35.
You know it was not a suicide just made to look like one why wouldn't Scott wait two more weeks so family could get insurance money unreal?
On a serious note, the city should sue the IOC for the money spent on the bid, since there was no real chance to win. Put whatever money that is recouped into the pension fund
Thank God. What happens in Reno stays in Reno.

One good reason. When your not in a rational state of mind and about to kill yourself you don’t think about things like that. It’s a spur of the moment thought. If you waited two weeks you probably wouldn’t do it. You are also assuming he knew about the two weeks. Plenty of people still think like in the old days anytime you committed suicide the insurance company wouldn’t pay regardless how long you had the policy. Not true anymore
Wasn't Michael Scott notified by the Feds
that he was pending indictment and to get
his affairs in order?
If he was pending indictment, he was under
Federal surveillance to insure his "integrity."
Right?
So the possibility that a Federal target under
surveillance somehow managed to slip surveillance
and commit suicide?
Or was the surveillance conveniently allowed to lapse
in order to keep Scott from talking and to protect
Shortshanks and all the other corporate lick hitters
who fattened obscenely during his mayoralty?
Just like Rahm blew into town to run interference
and protect his North Shore and Gold Coast confreres
along with Shorty.
Right?
"The Police ARE what's wrong with Chicago..."
Viva Hate.
I'd like to know how much they paid Patrick Ryan to go to each neighborhood and talk about how great it will be to have a velodrome.

One good reason not suicide Scott arranged for people to buy properties that became worthless when Chicago didn't get the Olympics!
Why was CFD washing down the Michael Scott crime scene for 15-20 minutes before CPD was notified?...
