Want to Buy Jesse Jackson Jr.'s Incriminating Swag?

Plus, headlines that didn't make today's newsletter.

Jesse Jackson Jr. may be gone from office, but his stuff is still around. From now until Sept. 26, an assortment of our former congressman's repossessed swag will be up for auction, including the infamous fur cape ($115 starting price) and autographed Bruce Lee photo ($350, starting). Any money made in the auction will be deducted from his money judgement owed, according to the Chicago Tribune. Take a look at the online auction site for yourself.
