but we've seen a dog that could be connected to former speaker of the house denny hastert. tert himself since he was indicted last week. nobody has seen him. nobody has seen him publicly. it allegations that he agreed to pay an individual more than $3 million in order to compensate for and conceal -- it was described in the indictment as mr. hastert's prior misconduct towards that individual. now, not according to indictment, but according to law enforcement sources, that prior misconduct stems from did he know denny hastert's time as a high school teacher and a coach in yorkville, illinois, before he ever went to congress. since the indictment was unsealed, federal officials have told nbc news that the alleged misconduct was sexual in nature and that it involved a student at the high school where denny hastert taught and coached. again, these are all just allegations at this point. but if the indictment is true about the payments, if the underlying misconduct, specifically sexual misconduct is true, it then raises hard to answer questions about not just denny hastert and hi

the legacy issue for denny hastert is decided. it's a little sad because there hasn't been a trial yet so we haven't seen all of the information play out to know whether he's guilty of anything. but the legacy of denny hastert is now glommed into that huge pool of legislators who have been hypocrites at one time or another, and at this point -- >> haven't they already taken his name off of buildings and scholarships? and he just got arraigned moments ago. >> in fact just moments ago the judge said his passport must be relish kwishd re relinquished relinquished and that he must pay $4500 bond. >> that's going to keep him in the country? >> i don't think denny hastert is going anywhere. >> what a sad state of affairs. we'll be right back. hey, hey, the duke of deals! i know a few guys in the rental car biz. let's go, 'wheels'. rental car deals up to 40% off. across america people, like basketball hall of famer dominique wilkins, are taking charge of their type 2 diabetes... ...with non-insulin victoza. for a while, i took a pill to

it's related to dennis hastert. while judge thomas durkin was in private practice before he became a judge, a federal election filing showed at least twice he made campaign donations to dennis hastert's campaign. that was first reported today by politico,.com. in addition to those campaign donations to dennis hastert, his son is also now a partner at the law firm where judge durkin used to work before he became a judge. despite those connections he is the person to whom dennis hastert's case has been assigned in federal court after dennis hastert was indicted on federal judges. those charges stem from some kind of private arrangement that he allegedly made to pay more than $3 million in cash to a man he allegedly had inappropriate sexual contact with when he was a high school teacher and wrestling coach before he ever got involved in politics or became speaker of the house. today we learned that former speaker of the house dennis hastert will be arraigned on thursday morning in person at the federal courthouse in ch
