EXCLUSIVE NY state Assemblyman Naomi Rivera unwittingly shed light on the web of tax-funded Latino nonprofits in The Bronx that benefit a self-serving collusive network of Latino insiders. Rivera installed her boyfriend to head the Bronx Council for Economic Development; he alleges Rivera used the group to fund their posh dates, sex romps and weekend getaways----and alleges Rivera used tax funds designated for "the poor" to finance her campaigns.

Assemblywoman Naomi Rivera (D-Bronx) is accused of using a phony tax-funded nonprofit as her personal ATM, establishing a pattern of racketeering, and collusion. She installed her various lovers in tax-paid jobs for explicit purposes: (1) to wine and dine her, (2) to bed her down, (3) to sign off on payments to her relatives, and, (4) to siphon off tax dollars for her campaigns.
Rivera steered hundreds of thousands of tax dollars to the poverty-stricken Bronx hellhole---via the Bronx Council for Economic Development, controlled and funded by the Rivera family---a coterie of political operatives.
FOR EXAMPLE Rivera colluded with her family to suckup tax dollars in numerous cases of govt fraud. Campaign-related expenses were charged to the Bronx nonprofit in violation of the law; 2007 records alone list a $1,000 payment for an Assemblywoman Naomi Rivera Grant Fundraiser and Naomi Rivera's $100 donation to the "Committee of 100 Democrats" barbecue.
The Bronx Council for Economic Development is a gross misnomer---despite millions of tax tax-dollars, the Bronxs is a poverty-stricken South/Central American Third World---a Fifth Column composed of pressure groups of impoverished illegals hollowing out the US govt from within----riding the US gravy train under multiple identities.
The development council took in more than $1.2 million in government funds between 2005 and 2009, IRS records show. Rivera employed her latest boy toy, Brooklyn teacher Tommy Torres, 35, at her Morris Park district office. He logged 20 hours a week there, raking in more than $18,000 from Rivera AT THE SAME TIME he was pulling in $90,000 as a full-time city gym teacher and coach.
The allegations have sparked an avalanche of probes, with the state attorney general, the Bronx DA and special schools prober Richard Condon all now looking into Rivera.
JUST HERE FOR A BETTER LIFE---DOING THE JOBS AMERCANS WONT'S DO--EXTORTION IS OUR SPECIALTY Roberto Ramirez (left) and Luis Miranda run the $22 million tax-sucking "Hispanic Federation" a nonprofit that colludes w/ politicans and latino groups. The two suckup tax dollars to "impoverished Latino groups." Ramirez and Miranda helped fund Assemblywoman Naomi Rivera's Bronx Development Council---while Rivera used tax funds to finace her campaigns and to fund dates, sex romps and jobs for her sex partner.
"We got a good thing going---mucho money in the bank just by blackmailing vote-crazed politicians who want the latino vote."
Seems if there is taxpayer money involved anywhere it is being ripped off or wasted in some way.

Zero is the lead third world parasite who is enpowering, supporting and encouraging this behavior at the expence of you and me.
THE LATINO VOTE EXTORTION MODUS OPERANDI-—SUCKING-UP FOR VOTES Non-profits pocketing big bucks extorting tax dollars in exchange for delivering latino votes.
COMMONLY USED PRACTICES TO FACILITATE GOVT FRAUD Falsifying govt documents incurs several felonies and might involve forgery. Govt funds surreptitiously funneled into secret LLC bank accounts. God only knows how many financial boms vote-crazed pols planted in govt budgets that jetstream tax dollars into secret accounts in exchange for latino votes.
L/E should employ Bank Secrecy Laws if bank accounts were used fraudulently.
REFERENCE Under the Bank Secrecy Act, banks are required to establish, implement and maintain programs designed to detect and report suspicious activity that might be indicative of govt fraud, money laundering and other financial crimes. The Bank Secrecy Act was enacted to protect the tax-paying public by identifying and detecting money laundering from criminal enterprises, govt fraud, tax evasion, money laudering and other unlawful activities. The investgations are monitored by the Internal Revenue Service’s Criminal Investigation unit.
NEED TO KNOW To cover their tracks, govt fraudsters might have created fake invoices that falsely show that govt money was being used for legitimate purposes, perhaps forged statements to cover the transfer of govt funds into secret bank accounts.
Govt fraud can also be facilitated by bank withdrawals, purchases on bank credits and intrabank transfers from legislative accounts into personal bank accounts.
A huge tipoff is whether bank withdrawals support luxurious lifestyle including payments for real estate, investment and stock holdings, jewelry, luxury vehicles, resort travel and gifts from luxury outlets for wives, mistresses, significant others. And large purchases of untraceable casino chips, and requests to wire transfer casino funds to bank accounts.
L/E is directed to get ahold of : (1) checks, (2) wire transfers, (3) account statements, (4) invoices, (5) bills, (6) delivery tickets, (7) correspondence including e-mail, contracts, loan agreements, (8) any other books or records, and (9) purchases of card cards with large balances.
L/E should also explore govt monies paid to (a) stockbrokers, sub-brokers, (b) family members, (c) mortgage brokers, (d) financial managers, and, (e) real estate agents, brokers, and developers.
L/E should scrutinize bank accounts for suspicious activites: (A) large deposits, (B) funds transferred from one account into another, (C) request for withdrawals. Bank records might also show diversions to secret LLC and other accounts, to operate personal businesses/law firms, and the like.there are bank accounts and checking accounts (also accounts with brokerages) from which deposits and withdrawals could be made.
NOTE credit cardsare frequently used to facilitate fraud......placing large sums of money on the card ostensibly for large purchases.......that are later turned into cash.
Lines of credit may have been obtained using falsified documents listing fictitious net worth in order to get LOC.
If the fraudsters are gamblers, they could have put stolen govt funds into untraceable casino chips which can be cashed-in anywhere in the world.
Casino bigwigs are happy to comply with L/E b/c they fear losing casino licenses. Casinos are wary of fraudulent activities——since it could put them in jeopardy. That’s why they keep meticulous records.
All of a high roller’s gambling wins and losses are recorded on casino books.
Charges might include: (1) criminal tax fraud (2) deliberately misstating income, (3) filing false returns, (4) falsifying official documents, (5) intentionally mislabeling personal expenditures as business expenses, (6) utilizing funds inappropriately, (7) fraudulent use of govt funds for lavish personal expenditures, (8) fraudulently declaring to the IRS personal expenditures as legitimate business expenses.
Several ways to find out chip buys:(1) casinos have to submit financial records to state casino control commissions-—the info would be there.(2) L/E could ask how many casino chips were sold compared to how many actually were used for wagers.
Casinos record all their patrons’ betting activities b/c some winners hide waging income from the IRS. Moreover, the casinos are protected if the bettors are crooks.
L/E is directed to investigate casino records for wire transfers, gambling wins(which may have been hidden and not declared to the IRS as income), gamblers’ requesting deposits to secret LLC accounts...and the like.
All tax is theft. You are either being stolen from, or receiving stolen property.

When Patrick Fitzgerald went after the Hispanic RAT corruption in the Daley Machine he only had to focus one one organization, the Hispanic Democratic Organization (HDO), and he had sole jurisdiction and control.
The HDO is now out of business as Fitz put many of the honchos away for a 'nice rest' in Federal Prison. And this had Daley looking over his shoulder 24/7(1), along with a dozen other corruption investigations and convictions. Which led Daley to realize it was time to 'retire'.
(1) City Hall was paranoid. The insiders didn't know who might be a rat or wired. The convictions kept getting closer and closer to 'the Fifth Floor' - aka: The Mayor's Office.

While I was in NYC a few weeks ago, I was bombarded by beggers asking for donations to their “foundation.”
The guys in my party remarked that while the Latino steet people didn’t know the language well, they had a good grasp of grifting the American public with well chosen buzzwords.

Thanks for the insider dope---any tips on how Fitz nailed the latino corruption?
Thanks for the realtime report——wonder if they had city permits to solicit funds?
Nada.
Especially the passed out drunk against the wall behind the solicitor.
“Show me a politician who is poor, and I’ll show you a poor politician.”
[Quote from a Mexican political boss, who’s name eludes me.
Assemblyman Rivera used tax funds to employ her sex partner, Tommy Torres-—she paid him $18,000 AT THE SAME TIME he was pulling in over $90,000 as a full-time public school gym teacher and coach.
Neighbors wondered why they heard Naomi screaming,”Gimmee another inch, por favor.”
Seems when she finally got him in the sack—he was charging her by the inch.
Man, betcha Naomi paid a bundle for that final inch. ROTFL.
Let’s all step up our efforts and fight even harder for conservative political candidates!
