During his half-century in office, Michael Madigan spearheaded Illinois' decline, all while using his position of power and the state government to enrich himself personally. "Starting with Governor JB Pritzker, Madigan's allies in the Illinois Democrat Party will have to answer for why they enabled this corruption for so long that contributed greatly to our states' challenges. "As a former federal prosecutor, I applaud the United States Attorney John Lausch and his team for their work. The type of corruption outlined in the indictment must be eradicated from our political system and the people of Illinois deserve justice." | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T02:06:17Z |
