That’s a whole lot of chatter.

The New York Daily News reports that the FBI intercepted 30,000 phone calls in a corruption probe involving N.Y. state Sen. Carl Kruger, who is charged with allegedly taking $1 million in bribes to help a developer, a lobbyist and two hospital execs.

The feds also indicted Brooklyn Democrat Assemblyman William Boyland and six others on corruption charges, the Daily News reported.

Prosecutors said Kruger often spoke cryptically,according to the Daily News. He was overhead on a wiretap saying he was “anti-mail … emails are never innocuous … even the weather report.”
