FBI mole shows face

Neither Obama nor Blagojevich have been accused of wrongdoing, but it's fairly clear they wouldn't be where they are today without Tony Rezko's help.

The Sun-Times features a story today about the FBI mole who will testify against Rezko later this month . . . Working underground for the FBI in a Chicago real estate consulting business evidently leads to interesting conversations with top Illinois politicians.

Sources said 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.

In one case, sources said, Thomas told authorities he saw a Rezmar employee pass an envelope with a visible wad of bills to an unidentified Blagojevich aide.
