— Political operative accused of plying Solis with Viagra, arranging massage
parlor trips is slapped with $25K fine for unregistered lobbying The Chicago
Board of Ethics levied the fine against Roberto Caldero, a veteran political
operative with close ties to former U.S. Rep. Luis Gutierrez. – Fran Spielman
(DIERSEN: No one pays me for what I do as your GOPUSA Illinois Editor.

https://chicago.suntimes.com/2019/9/16/20869148/danny-solis-viagra-massage-parlor-ethics-board-fine-lobbying-alderman
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The
Sun-Times reported in January that the federal affidavit accuses Caldero of
plying Solis with Viagra and arranging for the then-chairman of the City
Council’s Zoning Committee to visit massage parlors, where he was allegedly
serviced by a prostitute. Caldero was further accused of soliciting campaign
donations from the Cacciatore family, which, among other businesses, owns Elgin
Sweeping Services, a major street-sweeping company. At the time, Caldero was
representing Elgin Sweeping in its efforts to obtain relief from a change in
the city’s water billing practices that investigators indicated could have cost
the company more than $1 million. Elgin Sweeping had a city contract to provide
street sweeping services and at the time relied on filling its equipment at
city fire hydrants. During several wiretapped conversations, Solis and Caldero
made plans to exchange Viagra or visit massage parlors while also discussing
how the alderman might help Elgin Sweeping reduce its water bill. In late 2014,
Solis allegedly placed a series of calls and texts to Caldero asking if he had
any of that “blue medicine,” meaning Viagra, according to the feds.)
