Cronyism is alive and well, but you won't see this in the mainstream media. Feinstein and her husband will make millions of dollars as his firm has been selected as the ONLY real estate firm to win the bid. I'm sure the left is fine with this, but just mention Haliburton and they go ape.
United States Postal Service (USPS) hired the world’s largest commercial real estate firm, CB Richard Ellis Group (CBRE), to sell the properties. Richard Blum is chairman of the board at CBRE. U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-California) is Richard Blum’s wife.
Most of the citizens served by those four thousand post offices soon to be for sale think Dianne Feinstein’s wifely relationship to CBRE’s Chairman Blum represents a conflict of interest. Such thinking is certain concerning California’s post offices and a strongly held belief among La Jollans about to lose their beloved building to a lifelong politician helping her husband.

Typical liberal, a hypocritical liar. Let us see how much of this money she makes she gives to the poor. Oh wait, she will just tax us more, while she enjoys every tax loophole under the sun.
What could make the House pass something in 30 seconds that the Senate also passed? What would motivate them to put aside their alleged “differences” and act in the best interest of the people? The answer is when they are not acting in the best interest of the people, but rather, in their own best interests.
