President Biden decided to play partisan politics with the ongoing investigation into Public Official A, Mike Madigan, and the rampant corruption that has plagued Illinois. Biden began the process of terminating U.S. Attorneys across the country to install his own appointees but has made no announcement to spare U.S. Attorney John Lausch, the top federal prosecutor appointed by former President Trump who has spearheaded the public corruption probe that has implicated Mike Madigan.
A bipartisan coalition of elected officials from throughout Illinois expressed their disappointment and concern for the ongoing Madigan corruption investigation.
“U.S. Attorney Lausch is currently pursuing a historic and major public corruption investigation involving a years-long bribery scheme that has implicated former House Speaker Michael Madigan and others…We urge President Biden to permit U.S. Attorneys Lausch and Milhiser to remain in their jobs to conclude their ongoing corruption investigations and criminal cases.” – U.S. Representatives Rodney Davis, Darin LaHood, and Mary Miller
