News, you bet ya.... but the boner was pulled by mr. ego, Thomas McDermott Jr himself.
Once he announced he was going to pound his chest and strut his McPac Pac, funding down state candidates he favored throwing his imagined influence around was, is the beginning of the end of JR.
I wrote once before that Thomas McDermott Jr, the Ex Democratic Chairman of Lake County would feel heat when he announced the mc pac political fund, and then his announcement he was going to run for state wide office. Jr is going to follow in the foot steps of another famous Notre Dame Graduate, ex Calumet City Mayor and now out of jail felon Gerry Genova.
Genova's down fall was thumping his chest, flexing his petorial muscles saying he was going to run for Secretary of State. The good old boys network was not going to have it, and helped wind Genova in club fed.
McDermott has lots to hide, from festival of the lakes, to the HUD Fiasco, to a family member of his best, legal egale pal getting $400,000 to build two homes, no bidding, cash up front.
My bet is they go after some of the people around him, Lendi, Phil and a couple of people in code enforcement. There is a lot of low hanging fruit in McDermott's tree.
