And So It Begins

This is the first of what one imagines will be a series of stories about Rudy Giuliani's record in New York City. He knew about Bernard Kerik's connection to a company linked to organized crime before appointing him police commissioner. Money quote:

Rudolph W. Giuliani told a grand jury that his former chief investigator remembered having briefed him on some aspects of Bernard B. Kerik’s relationship with a company suspected of ties to organized crime before Mr. Kerik’s appointment as New York City police commissioner, according to court records.

Mr. Giuliani, testifying last year under oath before a Bronx grand jury investigating Mr. Kerik, said he had no memory of the briefing, but he did not dispute that it had taken place, according to a transcript of his testimony.

This was the man Rudy pushed to run DHS. We also learn today that Rudy wants his third wife in his cabinet meetings if he were president. Who elected her? In Rudy's world, he does all the electing.
