Meanwhile, the probes continue: Kyle "Dusty" Foggo, the former #3 man at CIA who was linked to Randy "Duke" Cunninhgam's bribery operation last year, was indicted yesterday for steering CIA contracts to his GOP cronies and telling them classified information about other bidders. Also indicted, Foggo and Cunningham's co-conspirator, Mitchell Wade's business associate, and GOP fundraiser Brent R. Wilkes, who, among his other alleged crimes, arranged for paid prostitutes for Cunningham as part of the bribe package. "Wilkes, a Republican Party "Pioneer" who raised more than $100,000 for President Bush's reelection in 2004 [has also] donated -- in concert with his business colleagues -- $656,396 to 64 other Republican lawmakers and the national Republican Party committees in Washington from 1995 through the third quarter of 2005."
