FoxNews.com is reporting that former Obama and Blagojevich fundraiser Tony Rezko was arrested this morning for bond violation -- evidently he's been busy trying to "move finances" around . . . [UPDATE 3: U.S. District Judge Amy St. Eve revoked Rezko's bond this afternoon, leaving Rezko in custody until further notice.]
[UPDATE 1 & 2: The Tribune story update here brings up a couple of great points: Rezko's ties to Chicago's Duffy family (Duffy relative is his attorney) and his questionable connections to Syria. What in the world was Rezko doing there? He was arrested in 2006 when he returned from Syria in response to the federal indictments for which he's facing trial on February 25.]
Read: this guy is too cute by half if he thinks the feds aren't paying verrryyy close attention to what he's doing with his accounts. Since 9-11, any major legal money transfers are reported by the banks to the feds.
Any candidate who's gotten $$ from this guy should be sweating bullets. He's obviously very nervous and not as smart as he thinks.
