Where Is The Coverage For Di Fi?

Good ol' Dianne Feinstein is exposed for the dishonest politician that she is. Her hubby was making a fortune off government defense contracts and she was the chairman and ranking member of MILCON for six years. I have known about this for quite sometime. What chaps my hide is the lack of coverage by the alphabet news stations. Oh, but of course, liberal politicians lack morals and ethics so this is just normal behavior...it was making her feel good sharing all kinds of inside info with hubby boy.

SEN. Dianne Feinstein has resigned from the Military Construction Appropriations subcommittee. As previously and extensively reviewed in these pages, Feinstein was chairperson and ranking member of MILCON for six years, during which time she had a conflict of interest due to her husband Richard C. Blum's ownership of two major defense contractors, who were awarded billions of dollars for military construction projects approved by Feinstein.

As MILCON leader, Feinstein relished the details of military construction, even micromanaging one project at the level of its sewer design. She regularly took junkets to military bases around the world to inspect construction projects, some of which were contracted to her husband's companies, Perini Corp. and URS Corp.
