MADOFF GAVE THOU$ANDS TO POLS (swindler sucked-up to Dems--Schumer, Hillary, Rangel)
By CATHY BURKE, NY POST

Bernie Madoff, whose $50 billion Ponzi scheme is the biggest purported fraud in history, reportedly gave out thousands of dollars to lawmakers in Congress.

Fox News reported Sen. Charles Schumer tops the donor list of Madoff and his family, at $29,300. Schumer's office said it had donated $8,000 of the stash to police and fire endowments.

Others who got donations from Madoff or his family were Democratic NJ Sen. Frank Lautenberg, who got $11,600; Hillary Rodham Clinton, who got nearly $9,000 for her Senate and presidential campaigns; disgraced former Republican Rep. Vito Fossella and Democratic Rep. Carolyn Maloney, who both collected $3,000; and Democratic Rep. Charles Rangel, who received $2,000. Maloney has said she'll give back the donation, the station said.
