Illinois politicians are the most corrupt of any other State, I swear. 😂 Growing up, we had so many nicknames for the general assembly folks and the governors. Rod Bag-of-Chips tried to sell Obama’s seat and my 8th grade History class was lit all year goofing, making fun of politicians. Don’t know how any of us passed our Constitution tests. Illinois politics exist to be made fun of. 🤣

Blagojevich was impeached, convicted, and removed from office in 2009 by the Illinois General Assembly. He was also subsequently barred by the Illinois Senate from holding public office within the state ever again. For his role in the corruption scandal, Blagojevich was sentenced to 14 years in federal prison.

Not sure why you are getting downvoted.
