U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann’s press secretary has been named one of the 50 most beautiful people in Washington, D.C. by The Hill. Debbee Keller, 24, hails from Georgetown — a town in Texas where the movie “Varsity…
Both sides in the Texas lawsuit accusing Minnesota businessman Nasser Kazeminy of funneling money to Norm Coleman want to extend an existing 60-day delay by another 30 days, putting off any possible trial action until early May.…
Here are two long, transcribed excerpts from B.J. Thomas’ deposition on March 19. Thomas was formerly chief financial officer of the Texas-based marine-services firm Deep Marine Technology.
The deposition was part of a civil lawsuit filed by Thomas and former…
AIG chief Edward Liddy mentioned, while sitting in his congressional hot seat Wednesday, that AIG insures oil rigs. If Norm Coleman was watching at home, perhaps he turned to his wife and said, “Honey, that’s what you do!” Allegations of unreported monetary gifts — cloaked as payments from a Coleman contributor’s marine-exploration firm to the insurance company where Coleman’s wife works — remain alive (if dormant) in Texas and Delaware courts. And Coleman still wants to use campaign cash to fight them, aides say.
Two Star Tribune reporters have answered the charges former U.S. Sen. Norm Coleman made yesterday against them. Coleman told WCCO-TV the reporters ambushed him last October with questions about alleged money funneling and…
CNN is reporting that Sen. Norm Coleman has hired Minneapolis-based defense attorney Douglas Kelley to help with two lawsuits that include allegations about Coleman and wealthy donor and friend Nasser Kazeminy. The Star Tribune reports Coleman’s wife,…
Fox 9′s Tom Lyden’s reports that U.S. Sen. Norm Coleman and his wife Laurie were in the midst of a major home remodeling project in the spring of 2007, at the same time that a Texas firm controlled by Coleman benefactor Nasser Kazeminy was making payments to the insurance firm where Laurie Coleman works. So there is a circumstantial link between the payments and the house costs — and a potential motive for Kazeminy to steer a sum like that to the Colemans, as two lawsuits allege and the FBI is now looking into.
Rod Blagojevich was arrested today on charges that included alleged schemes to funnel money to the Illinois governor through his wife, Patricia. Because the charges against Blagojevich are criminal and made by the U.S. Department of Justice, they are on a wholly different order (at least so far, pending results of a newly reported FBI probe) from allegations about U.S. Sen. Norm Coleman that were made by private plaintiffs in a pair of Texas civil suits from October.
The dissimilarity, however, ends there.
The hottest Senate race in the country is getting a whole lot hotter due to multiple lawsuits alleging that an associate of Sen. Norm Coleman, Nasser Kazeminy, funneled money to Coleman’s wife through an insurance company she works…
Transcript of Coleman’s October 10 press conference.
I had originally planned to exclusively talk about the economy and the financial crisis, which I still intend to address. But, these are fearful anxious times – and people are looking for hope…
