And then receive millions of state dollars when Trump was an Illinois state Senator, criminal conspiracy!!!

quote:

After Barack Obama became an Illinois state legislator, his wife moved up as well, scoring a job as 'vice president of community relations' at the University Of Chicago Hospital for a very generous salary of $121,910. When Obama became a senator in 2005, her 'salary' leapfrogged to $$316,962 for the same job...and one of Senator Obama's first acts in office was to see to it that the hospital received over a million dollars of your tax dollars as an earmark. Well, Michelle has moved on,and guess what...that vital job of hers,worth a salary of over $300 K has been quietly eliminated.

As corrupt as libs say Trump is, the Chicago political machine says hold my beer. Seriously, that city makes 3rd world African countries blush.

I wonder what a “director of community relations” does to make 300k a year anyway

A position so important mind you that when Barack moved on it was “quietly eliminated”

That is exactly how the Democratic Machine operates AT ALL LEVELS!

I grew up there and the mob has nothing on the Democratic Machine. In fact, I would say the mob learned how to shake down businesses from them.

The National Geographic documentary that focused on Pat Marcy is amazing. That guy was more powerful than the Chicago Outfit. Bought off judges and cops and controlled every political appointment.

I assume you didn’t provide the link to this quote because the only places claiming this are forums with broken links.



Don’t know what you get out of posting this sort of “information”. It’s weird.

Link confirms my earlier statement. It seems the only place this information exists is on other forums using broken links. That’s a weird source to put your faith in.

Pay Marcy was a made guy in The Chicago Outfit. He was one of the main reasons the Outfit was so Powerful. He wasn’t more powerful than the Outfit, he was the Outfit.

What facts are you disputing?

Her salary was a public record I believe, the dates are not disputed, confirmed here by the University of Chicago

So what are confused about, maybe we can help you?

Officials at the University of Chicago Hospitals on Tuesday explained a large salary jump for Sen. Barack Obama's wife shortly after he took office as a normal promotion that reflected expanded duties in her job as a liaison with the South Side community surrounding the medical center. Michelle Obama was promoted to vice president for external affairs in March 2005, two months after her husband took office in the Senate. According to a tax return released by the senator this week, the promotion nearly tripled her income from the hospitals from $121,910 in 2004 to $316,962 in 2005.


Chicago Tribune, why can’t you find these stories and links? Are you stupid?

In fact, Mrs. Obama’s income in 2006, a year after her promotion, had decreased to $273,618. And for 2007 (the year she actually started working part-time), her income was $103,633, according to the couple’s tax return for that year.
quote:

Lastly, the column questioned the hospital’s decision not to fill the position vacated by the first lady, asking: "How can that be, if the work she did was vital enough to be worth $317,000?" It’s true that after her departure, the hospital did not fill the position of vice president for community and external affairs. But the column doesn’t mention that she had reduced her work schedule to part time well before she left and wasn’t making that much money when she officially resigned. Easton told us that "the responsibilities related to that position have been absorbed by those in other roles."
And as to Obama using the connection to funnel funds to the med center...
quote:

the request was one of many projects that the former senator made in 2005 and 2006 that were killed by Congress.
The hospital didn’t receive 1 million dollars, that part seems to be pure fiction. Which is why sourcing unsupported posts from other forums is perilous.
