I’ve mentioned a number of times this employment service that has had me on its email list ever since I was a senior staffer for the Smith/Norrell campaign in 2018.
It’s all about top jobs across the country in and around government and politics — on congressional staffs or helping run campaigns, or heading of lobbying for some big corporation. I don’t intend to pursue any of those openings, but I stay on the list because some of them are really, really interesting.
Like this one today, which you see above. Note the very first job listed. Now this is what makes it extra interesting — the timing. I received that email at 9 a.m. today.
The New York Times had sent out the following at 7:47 a.m.:
Federal Agents Search Eric Adams’s Official Residence
Federal agents searched the official residence of Mayor Eric Adams of New York, the latest move in a corruption investigation…
Then at 11:07 a.m., I received this from The Boston Globe:
BREAKING NEWS ALERT
New York City Mayor Eric Adams was indicted Thursday on charges that he took illegal campaign contributions and bribes from foreign nationals in exchange for favors that included helping Turkish officials get fire safety approvals for a new diplomatic building in the city….
An interesting sequence. Do you think anyone applied for that job online between 9 and 11:07?
I mean, the salary is attractive, but the alert we’d already received meant you’d definitely be earning every penny of it. The mayor is in serious need of some advice at the moment.
I also wonder where all that money comes from? Oh, I’m not flinging accusations or aspersions or leaping to conclusions. I just wondered…
When you click on the link from that posting, you learn more about the job. So now I’m thinking maybe the feds are on the wrong track, since that page clearly states:
How could a great guy like that be doing anything shady?…
Is there any large Democrat run city in America that is NOT a cesspool of corruption? New York, Chicago, New Orleans, Detroit…
Meanwhile, AOC current net worth is $29 million when she was broke 5 years ago… socialism is very lucrative apparently.
The $29 million is fake- not true. It keeps getting posted over and over again which is typically a HUGE red flag. The source is always obviously fake- with no evidence provided to support the claim (which is typical).
It’s been out there for years now (I just conducted a 10 second search and saw the claim from 2022 as well as the exact same claim in 2024)- and it’s always exactly $29 million (another huge, glaring red flag that the net worth never changes- it’s always $29 million).
It has been debunked many, many times by numerous outlets, groups, etc.
Be more careful with whatever you are looking at to get such obviously false information. Relying on sources that hate her is also typically a pretty good indication that whatever you read isn’t going to be honest, or complete, or will be very misleading.

“There is no credible evidence her net worth is that high. Ocasio-Cortez has at most $60,000 in assets and up to $50,000 in student loan debt, according to the most recent financial disclosure document that she, as a member of Congress, must file each year.

Forbes puts her net worth closer to $125,000 based on her financial disclosure statements that members of Congress must file.
And let’s not forget the amazing stock trading capabilities of Nancy Pelosi and her husband who have some sort of clairvoyance regarding government contracts going to companies like NVDA and CITI… and the Obamas now own FOUR mansions in various locations around the country.. .all on a salary of $400k for 8 years.
There’s nobody dumber than a Democrat voter who thinks their party is for the “little guy”
I don’t know why you think Nancy Pelosi is the only one with this ability. A fair assessment would be to point out everyone involved in such things
WASHINGTON (WTVD) — Unsealed court documents from the Department of Justice say “well-timed trades” enabled Sen. Richard Burr, R-NC, to avoid more than $80,000 in losses while making more than $160,000 in stocks during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The probable cause affidavit was part of a probe into whether Burr illegally sold stock because of insider knowledge of the pandemic before the general public did.
The DOJ closed the investigation in 2021 and did not pursue any charges.
“and the Obamas now own FOUR mansions in various locations around the country.. .all on a salary of $400k for 8 years.
There’s nobody dumber than a Democrat voter who thinks their party is for the “little guy”
Your post incredibly misleading. The Obamas received a $65 million book advance. Four mansions is a bargain when someone hands you over $50 million dollars, not counting all the speeches that every president gets to make. Quick research shows Obama now makes from $400,000 to $600,000 PER speech now and made over $1 million a speech shortly after leaving office.
Apparently, there’s nobody more uninformed than a Conservative that thinks that presidents (and apparently only Democrat presidents) only make money from the salary they received while president. I mean, you really have to have a head in the sand to think that.
I’m not a conservative.
I’m just not dumb enough to believe the Obama’s are for the little people of the world. I know how they (and the Clinton’s) got generationally wealthy without actually producing anything in their lives.
No politician is for “the little people”. That is a political slogan. I am not sure what it even means. It’s totally subjective.
Any President is going to be generationally wealthy after being president unless you want the politicians to pass a law that says the government shall limit a private citizen’s earning power. Most are generationally wealthy before they even run for office.
The only other solution is that they turn down all the offers they will receive. The great majority thinks that would be totally unreasonable.
