Chapter 129 From Arms Dealer to Political Puppet

Sure enough, it was the evening news hour.

All the major media websites in Chicago suddenly published a news story at the same time: "Candidate Congressman Monroe: From Arms Dealer to Political Puppet"

The article detailed the various transactions between the Daley family and the Roy family 20 years ago, especially the various illegal activities in which Monroe was involved.

It was also accompanied by a video of Monroe standing in a warehouse with high spirits when he was young, directing workers to pry open a wooden box with "Medical Equipment" printed on it. The cold metallic light of the AK47 in the box almost stung the eyes of all voters.

And, of course, there are the photos of Monroe laughing heartily, holding two prostitutes in his arms.

At that time, Monroe was chatting with his subordinates. Suddenly, the subordinates' expressions seemed a little wrong.

"Mr. Monroe, why did the Chicago Times suddenly publish your article..." The subordinate looked at his mobile phone and stammered.

"You're canvassing for votes for me again! We're sure to win this time!" Monroe said proudly.

"No...it's not about canvassing for votes!" The subordinate took out his mobile phone and quickly browsed several other websites, only to find that they all had the same article.

He immediately handed the phone to Monroe: "Hurry up and take a look! Why are all these media outlets publishing random articles?"

"Why are you panicking?"

Monroe took the phone calmly, but the moment he saw the title of the article, his smile froze on his face.

A photo of him as a teenager, full of vigor and vitality, appeared prominently in the center of the webpage.

The following article carefully lists how much benefit he has received from the Daly family over the years and what he has done for the Daly family.

Monroe was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

This photo and some old events were so old that even he himself had forgotten the year and month they happened.

"This... this is impossible..." Monroe said in shock. "Where did all this negative information come from... No, that's not right... Even if there was such negative information, the media wouldn't just expose it like that! What on earth is going on?"

At this point, the news had begun to spread rapidly throughout Chicago, and the Internet had exploded.

Netizens rushed to take advantage of the popularity, posting comments and saying all kinds of things.

"I'm used to it! No one in American politics is clean!"

"This despicable politician! He has done so many shameful things, and yet he still smears the philanthropic entrepreneur Reebs!"

"All crows are black! I think Monroe and Reeves are equally matched. It doesn't matter which one you choose!"

Monroe opened the real-time approval rating statistics website and found that his approval rating had turned green and was declining.

He immediately took out his cell phone and called the Daly family.

In the magnificent bedroom of the manor castle, Daly Hertz was lying on a gorgeous big bed, and the maid handed the phone to him.

"Hello, is this Monroe? What's up?"

"Mr. Hertz, have you seen the news?" Monroe asked anxiously. "I don't know what's going on, but many media outlets have exposed my negative information..."

"Oh? Is that true?" Hertz said, "Wait a minute, let me take a look."

After hanging up the phone, Dalyherz opened his tablet and started checking the news.

At this time, many small media outlets, seeing that the major media outlets had broken the news, also began to release various rumors, and true and false news went viral on the Internet.

Daley Hertz had a gloomy face and called his brother Daley Anderson over to discuss countermeasures.

"Anderson, what do you think about this?"

"This news is very true. We did a lot of things," said Daley Anderson. "It seems like the person who provided this information knows us very well!"

Daly Hertz nodded in agreement. "Well, they must be from the Roy family! I never thought that after all these years, they would still be waiting for an opportunity to take revenge."

"Most of the Roy family members should be dead! Who leaked this information?" asked Daley Anderson.

"They also have a little son, Roy," Dalyholtz said. "We didn't kill him back then, and he disappeared later..."

The brothers were silent for a few seconds, and then Dalyherz asked, "What about the media? Didn't we already inform them?"

"I don't know either," Daley Anderson replied. "But they've reported it on such a large scale, and we don't have any good countermeasures. We can't just kill everyone..."

Just then, the phone rang again.

The maid answered the phone, nodded twice, and said to Daly Hertz, "Master, it's the editor-in-chief of the Chicago Times, looking for you."

Hertz said, "Put the speakerphone on."

After the maid turned on the speakerphone, an urgent voice came from the phone: "Mr. Daly! Our website was hacked, and they actually published that article that was unfavorable to Monroe! I'm so sorry! We have deleted the article!"

"What's the point of deleting it now? Everyone knows about it now," Dalyherz replied.

"Sorry, this is our mistake!" The head of the Chicago Times immediately apologized.

"Don't worry, this isn't entirely your fault. We underestimated our opponent. Now that things have come to this, let's leave it at that!" Dalyhertz said, "I'm hanging up now. I'll contact you if anything else happens."

After hanging up the phone, Daly Hertz said coldly: "It seems that Libus has united all our enemies."

"Well, what now?" asked Daley Anderson.

"I think it's better to give up Monroe," Dalyholtz said. "If we insist on keeping Monroe, our family will be implicated."

"Well, I agree with you," Daley Anderson said. "Let's get rid of our opponents one by one first. Sooner or later, the councillor will be ours."

The two brothers quickly reached a consensus and decided to abandon their plans for this year's parliamentary elections. This was because even if the Democratic Party lost one member, they would still have a majority in parliament and control of the parliament.

The next day, Monroe kept a close eye on his approval rating.

He watched his approval rating drop from 44% to just 23%.

He is already behind both Reebs and Republican Congressman Graver.

Throughout the entire day, he received no calls from the Daley family or any media support for him.

All signs indicate that he has become a discarded pawn.

At this time, Ribs must of course seize the opportunity and pursue the victory.

He found a famous Chicago political cartoonist and paid him a handsome fee.

The cartoonist drew an inspiring poster overnight and sent it to multiple media outlets.

Now that the Daley family's support is gone, the media no longer cares about the impact and reports on Monroe's affairs one by one.

The poster shows Monroe wearing devil horns and teaching elementary school students arithmetic with a submachine gun. "Dear children, if you make $50 per gun, how many votes can you buy by selling 2,000 of them?"
