His new documentary, Casino Jack and the United States of Money, focuses on the rise and fall of disgraced Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff. We also speak with David Sickey, a member of the Tribal Council of the Coushatta Tribe, and Tom Rodgers, a lobbyist and member of the Blackfeet tribe who was a key whistleblower in the Abramoff case. Casino Jack and the United States of Money. (45) IMDb 7.1 1 h 58 min 2010 R. This portrait of Washington super lobbyist Jack Abramoff confirms the adage that truth is indeed stranger than fiction. A tale of international intrigue with Indian casinos, Russian spies, Chinese sweatshops, and a mob-style killing in Miami, this is the story of the way money corrupts our political process. Ultimately Casino Jack and the United States of Money is about a system designed to foster the personal quest for political power over political service. For centuries, Tribal Nations have been familiar with the adage “follow the money” so it is not a surprise that the Tigua Casino did not reopen.
