This Guy Again?

  • He has plumbed the secrets of the Iran-Contra affair and questioned sitting presidents under oath. He has led investigations that have sent cops, judges and city employees to prison in a sprawling corruption case.

    Now, legendary Chicago lawyer Dan Webb will again take up the role of special prosecutor, this time to examine whether a television actor clumsily staged a hate crime attack, then got a sweetheart deal from prosecutors.

    Cook County Judge Michael Toomin on Friday appointed Webb and his powerhouse law firm, Winston & Strawn, to probe State’s Attorney Kim Foxx’s controversial handling of criminal charges against Jussie Smollett, duties that could lead to new charges against the “Empire” actor and have considerable impact on Foxx’s bid for a second term.
Webb has quite the reputation to anyone who follows Chicago politics, and Toomin appears to have given him wide leeway in what and who he can investigate, including the ability to level new charges related to the staged crime. But those would be State charges, and that might endanger Prickwrinkle's State's Attorney.

One has to wonder why Smell-it hasn't been indicted on Federal charges for the stunt with the powder through the mail yet.

Webb is part of the machine. The same machine who is again backing Foxx. This town doesn’t even attempt to hide it’s corruption. It will be an investigation of a lot of fluff and it will try and make Kim look competent.

Dan Web = fait accompli
The mere fact that a legal giant was chosen indicates
the White Bronco is being gassed up, tuned up, oil

Cancel the Netflix for a month, load up on Sam's Club

American politics). Take some bets. Start, Middle,

Smell-it hasn't been federally indicted because to do so would require disclosing that potentially Kamala Harris and Cory Booker worked in tandem with Smelly to push their anti Lynching legislation. Isn't Lynching legally a murder? Aren't there laws against murder? Why the need for carve outs?

It would be interesting to see the NSA signals surveillance of Harris, Booker, and the Stinky washed up actor.

Not terribly surprising; the Illinois political establishment may love itself some fake racial strife, but not when the hoax makes them look like big ol' dumb bastards to all their liberal friends and the juicy one pantsed them pretty hard. They want revenge, but doing an end run around the Foxxwinkle axis takes time.

BINGO!

Of course this has never been disclosed by the MSM, and I'm sure it was just a huge coincidence that Kamala Harris and Smollett are friends and she introduces an anti lynching law at the same time Smollett claims he was attacked and had a noose put around his neck!! No, absolutly nothing to see here...

Along with a DOJ/FBI federal investigation there is still supposedly several other sideshows including:

-- the Osundario brothers lawsuit

-- the City's lawsuit against Smollett

-- the Cook County Inspector General's investigation

-- a US Postal Inspection Service investigation

Depending on the outcome of Webb's investigation, Foxx could also face charges before the Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission (the "ARDC")

Stay tuned...

Do not expect any change or further charges!

He is doing this for free? So expect nothing?
Watch who will be his associates who actually do the investigation?
Just like Koschman case he was appointed but had others do the work!

But what's even better is that now that Dan Webb has the power to convene a grand jury and the power to issue subpoenas and the power to indict and prosecute, you can bet your bottom dollar that the people that will be hauled into the grand jury and made to testify under oath and under penalty of perjury are the following: Kim Foxx, Tina Tchen, Michelle Obama and Barack Obama and anyone else who has been part of this fiasco from the get go.

The washed up Juicie Swolledit can expect a conviction and a 30 day probation sentence...a plea no doubt.

What’s really at stake is if the celebrated career of KmmmFxxxUp is going to be washed up too.
The time Webb spends on this, whether he quickly concludes favorably or whether he drags this out will be the indicator.
Many Democrat ghosts of past will be meeting, stirring up the obama, Rahm and Jugghaid SpecialEd involvement.

Prediction: Soon as the Cook Co Primary comes in March, the Fed will announce the Juicie Indictment.
Then there’s the Burke, Boner Solis, Austin and Dorthief Brown cases.
I think the Fed is holding their cards close and will deliver the hee-haw donkey punch to the Democrat Party early 2020 and again right up to the Cook Co General Election in November.

Many, Many years ago Mr. Webb was the subject to a Hot Line Child Abuse allegation. One juvenile female accuser was interviewed. The same Youth Officers were on their way to interview with his daughter, they were ordered by Area Youth Commander to not interview the daughter and told to report back to the Area Youth Office. The two Youth Officers returned to the Area Youth Office and were ORDERED TO DROP THE INVESTIGATION AND TURN OVER ANY AND ALL REPORTS on the matter to the Area Youth Commander. They were also told not to discuss this with anyone. The Youth Officers involved to this day insist that the allegations were true. One Youth Officer is dead and the other is retired and living in Florida. It is one man's opinion that this is one of the reasons why Webb hates the Police. Web has always been a Daley Family, Democratic political hack.

He will also say that the GJ found fault with Kimmy but not enough to indict her or any of the phone callers who tried to sway the investigation.However the police coerced the two muscle heads into making statements and IAD will be taking action on the detectives and supervisors. The muscle heads lawyer will also turn on the detectives and concur with Trout mouth's investigation. OB's friends will refuse to cooperate and fight the subpoenas. Smellit will walk again.

Biden said Foxx has made the best Cook County Sheriff he has ever witnessed and that he personally endorses Foxx for another term, as Cook County Sheriff.

Biden then commented that the thought Kin Foxx handled the Jon Stewart hate crime charges in Chicago very, very professionally.

When asked about gun violence in Chicago, the former VP did not flinch and replied to the female reporter: "Nurse! I love pudding! Pistachio is tasty! Who are you?"

Webb is part of the machine and will not criticize the first AA female SA.
