I applied for these promotions many times, I guess I was too honest for the job. Plumbers Union, what do you know? Please read this article. Two more city inspectors charged with corruption
BUILDINGS DEPT. | Investigation might not be over

Two more city inspectors were charged in an ongoing investigation into corruption in the city’s Buildings Department.
To date, 10 city inspectors have been charged in various corruption cases on state and federal levels.
Federal indictments announced Friday charged two additional city inspectors, including plumbing inspector Eric Reyes, who is accused of lying to federal authorities about whether he asked another person to create a phony letter of intent. Letters of intent are supposed to ensure that a listed contractor is properly licensed.
Building inspector David Johnson was also charged with conspiring with a contractor and another unnamed individual to take bribes in return for fixing building permits or code problems.
The unnamed co-conspirator in Johnson’s indictment was a supervising building inspector.
The fact that the person was named as a co-conspirator but not charged could be a sign the probe continues to expand.

Note: I will be getting more information on the Shakman Deal as soon as it makes more sense. Ever get the feeling the FEDS are tightening the noose and have figured out the Chicago Political Game. Patrick McDonough

Yesterday on May 18, 2007, the North District was visited by the Illinois Department of Labor. Investigators from the State were checking for Shoring in Ditches. Today, May 11, 2007, the State Inspectors were investigating the Central District. Every Foreman was warned ahead of time. Shoring is almost never used and the rules are not enforced. Now, Department of Water Management want to enforce the rules on digging next to trees unless their is an exception, Clouted People that do not want the tree removed. Are you starting to understand the way things are? Patrick McDonough.

Please read this ,click here: http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-0705091171may10,1,1523150.story?coll=chi-newslocal-hed This Chicago Plumbing Inspector had a storied past at the old Chicago Water Department, of course, these are the type that get promoted on a regular basis. Maybe he could help us all figure out the many bribes the different divisions were taking on a regular basis. Some Chicago Plumbing Inspectors could not even get out of their car because they were so obese. The problems with the phony plumbing inspections are major in Chicago. I hope Plumber’s Local 130 can shed some light on this problem, especially with the tapper’s truck and the faxed paperwork. Old Donald had a special concern with the Tappers. Patrick McDonough

Family of Mayor Daley is a nice gig if you can get it. Please read this article from Fran Spielman, Chicago Sun-Times great writer. Click here: http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/379180,CST-NWS-nephew10.article In a nut shell my friends, millions will be pocketed by insiders of the 11th ward and the Daley clan if Olympics land. The Olympics are the quick version of gambling, “Gaming” as the suckers call it. Daley wants family on the inside if the Olympics hit Chicago, period. The man covers his boyz financial interests, feds or no feds. Patrick McDonough

Today on 26th street around Kostner, I saw this lady selling flowers and prepackaged bears with hearts. In fact, numerous vendors were selling various items so Mexicans would keep Mother’s Day honored. Most Americans will enjoy Mother’s Day Sunday May 13, 2007. Happy Mother’s Day to all my Mexican friends. Photo by Patrick McDonough

Congratulations to Fast Eddie Vrdolak for evading the U.S. States Attorney for so long. I guess if you still need to work a hustle at 70 years old, you are some type of loser. You got caught because Levine talked. So Ed, be a hero and give up the Daley Boys and all the City of Chicago political hustles. John Cass said it best, “The Combine is both democrats and republicans in Illinois”. Think he will do some time or pull a “Governor Ryan”. This should have every Chicago politician holding their breath, Patrick McDonough

Please read this article about the corruption at Chicago UIC campus. Please click here: http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/376739,CST-NWS-UIC09.article This story is about one of John Daley’s guys that got a pass even though he was arrested 9 times. Why did Thomas J. Morano get busted for his criminal past? I bet it was because a guy that was an acting foreman decided not to take a proposed settlement on a discrimination lawsuit. John Daley should call the Chicago Sun-Times and correct the error that Morano lives in Chinatown, he lives on Lowe Street in the 11th Ward. Just so you know, the UIC wanted to shut this down, but Frank Avila, Angelo Fato, and Patrick McDonough were in the background, putting gas on the fire. John Daley, What Do You Know? This story will expose the contracting and the Hiring and promotion scams at UIC. I hope the Union explain how the Chicago O’Hare Fired Workers ended up working at UIC. Please dig in like an Alabama tick, our Chicago F.B.I. This one is for you Roger!!! Patrick McDonough.

Chicago Police Forensic Services gather evidence long after Chicago Media Outlets are done covering an assignment. May 8, 2007, a major bank robbery happened in Chicago’s Little Village Neighborhood. I am happy the gunman decided to give up. The day after the robbery, much of the evidence needs to be put in order for court. I hope you know the Chicago Police Forensic Services work around the clock to make sure all the evidence is in order and a needed conviction of a gunman will keep bad guys off the street. Thank You Chicago Police. Photo by Patrick McDonough.

The Chicago Little Village Community had a terrible Bank Robbery on May 8, 2007. Officer Gage is one of the Chicago Police Officers that put his life on the line May 8, 2007, to make sure the lives of Chicago Citizens are protected. Every day, I watch Chicago’s brave officers put up with some terrible situations. Thank You Chicago Police for you expert work, and staying cool and calm. Photo by Patrick McDonough
