Once Blagojevich's name was changed to "Federal Prisoner Number 40892-424" I thought I would be just about done with my award-adjacent "Corrupt Ex-Governor" series.
I was wrong.
From The New York Times:

Blagojevich of Illinois, the Democrat who was convicted of trying to essentially sell Barack Obama’s vacated Senate seat for personal gain, and pardoned the financier Michael R. Milken and Bernard B. Kerik, the former New York City police commissioner, the president announced on Tuesday...
Behold, a Tip Jar!
