minus-squarecircuscriticlinkfedilinkarrow-up115·edit-21 month agoDid no one read the article? This was actual legally defined bribery of a state lawmaker and the accused executive is going on trial. What the article doesn’t address is whether the legislation this bribe was paid for, will be repealed or impacted. FYI it was a bill to remove AT&T’s obligations as a Carrier of Last Resort in Illinois.
