CHICAGO — Job wanted: Ex-governor and ex-con with strong speaking skills and good hair seeking employment.from President Donald Trump, former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich is in the hunt for a post-prison career.“I need to start working and providing for my family,” the 63-year-old told Fox News this week. He didn’t elaborate on the kind of job he is seeking.His expletive-laden talk captured on FBI wiretaps about landing a job or campaign cash for naming someone to Barack Obama’s vacated U.S.
Blagojevich himself mused about dream jobs in the secret recordings of his phone that played central roles at his two corruption trials. The Chicago Democrat heaped praise on the Republican president as he addressed reporters outside his home Wednesday, a day after his release from a federal prison in Colorado. Blagojevich went so far as to say he’d vote for Trump,A: At trial, prosecutors highlighted Blagojevich’s extravagant tastes. They said he and his wife, Patti, spent more than $400,000 on clothes that included tailored suits and furs. On a single day, he even shelled out $1,300 on ties.
Agents arrested then-Gov. Blagojevich after wiretaps recorded him gushing about using his power to appoint someone to the Senate seat to land a well-pay job or campaign cash, saying the leverage it provided was ” f------ golden.” Blagojevich, who got his law degree from Pepperdine University in 1983, can probably cross lawyer off the prospective jobs list.
As a politician, he demonstrated a Bill Clinton-like ability to connect with people of disparate backgrounds. Perhaps that could open the way to a sales or marketing job.Trump fired him from “Celebrity Apprentice” after Blagojevich struggled with basic tasks like sending emails from a cellphone.
Permanent Chief of Staff to POTUS is open...

I was listening to his statement after releasing from the prison, he is smart and makes sense whole lot more than any other presidential candidates. I wish him well.
With any luck there’ll be an opening at DOJ soon.

There are some cabinet posts available in the Trump administration...
Can't believe he had such high paying jobs hiding in the bathroom and avoiding bad news while at work. What am I doing wrong here? He must've had connections.

This criminal SOB claims he was a political prisoner. What a dick. He tried to sell Obama's vacant US Senate seat. I am guessing that whatever job he manages to get will face blow back from a public fed up with this criminal and boycott the company

Needs to be a TV analyst giving expert advice on how to be a criminal.
Even though he was pardoned, he still has to check the ‘convicted felon’ box on job applications right? (I mean we all know he’s going to get hooked up with a no-show/kickback favor of a job anyway.)
He should run for governor again

I'm not fan of Blago and disagree with him being release but what the hell is up with the photo you all picked for this article? Click bait and outrage win all apparently. AP is slumming for that revenue which has shown how they are less credible and reliable. Its really sad.
