John Thomas FBI mole back in news, Federal corruption informant, Blagojevich Rezko other politicians, Obama Rezko contact informant

“Why did the Illinois Senate Health & Human Services Committee, with Obama as chairman, create and push Bill 1332, “Illinois Health Facilities Planning Act,” early in 2003, which reduced the number of members on the Board from 15 to 9, just prior to rigging by Tony Rezko and Rod Blagojevich?”…Citizen Wells

“I believe I’m more pristine on Rezko than him.”…Rod Blagojevich

“FBI mole John Thomas helped investigators “build a record of repeat visits to the old offices of Rezko and former business partner Daniel Mahru’s Rezmar Corp., at 853 N. Elston, by Blagojevich and Obama during 2004 and 2005,“”…Chicago Sun-Times February 10, 2008

From the Chicago Sun-Times June 14, 2011.

“‘John Thomas is back,” John Thomas said. He’s a real estate investor and onetime government informant in federal corruption cases and he had just won an auction for an Uptown office building before uttering his self-evaluation last September.

Thomas aspired to redevelop the old Combined Insurance Co. of America building at 5050 N. Broadway, now vacant. It was to be a career rehabilitator for Thomas, who years ago seemed in the middle of every significant property deal in Chicago, then saw his business decline because of the recession and his own missteps.

He was convicted of felony fraud but avoided prison time because he was an informant in the FBI probe of former Gov. Rod Blagojevich and other politicians. Thomas has said his work with the FBI is done and he also said he made restitution for his earlier fraud.

As for being “back,” not yet. Thomas couldn’t close on the Uptown site. As of March 31, it’s been in the hands of Imperial Realty Co., which is based on the Northwest Side. Imperial is known for buying distressed properties, fixing them and leasing them back up.”

“In the media, Obama always made it sound like he rarely saw Rezko, saying they met for breakfast or lunch once or twice a year. However, the FBI mole John Thomas helped investigators “build a record of repeat visits to the old offices of Rezko and former business partner Daniel Mahru’s Rezmar Corp., at 853 N. Elston, by Blagojevich and Obama during 2004 and 2005,“

March 14, 2008 interview.

“the Times told Obama, Thomas is an FBI mole and he “recently told us that he saw you coming and going from Rezko’s office a lot.””

“And three other sources told us that you and Rezko spoke on the phone daily.””
