Here’s a laugh: the Justice Department is investigating Sheldon Adelson, Newt Gingrich’s biggest backer, for corruption.
The billionaire casino mogul who has breathed new life into Newt Gingrich’s presidential campaign with millions of dollars in donations is facing a federal investigation over whether his company violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits bribing foreign officials.
The investigation stems from a lawsuit filed by a former executive at the Sands Macau in China, the company has said. Steven C. Jacobs claims he was told the keep quiet about investigations of local officials and the possible presence of the triads – Chinese organized crime – in the casino.
Sheldon Adelson, who founded and runs Las Vegas Sands Corp — one of the largest casino and resort companies in the world, has denied the allegations in the lawsuit and said the company is cooperating with federal investigators.
At this point, Zero’s DOJ investigating anyone is a joke that tells itself.
Nuff said.

Hell, Nicki, Drew Pearson probably did more professional investigations than what we’ve got for a Justice Dept. these days.

Oh, hell, Leon. Quick Draw McGraw would probably beat the justice department’s record.
