Tax cheat and crook Charlie Rangel is back in the news again for not disclosing funds. In 2010, Rangel lost his chairmanship of the Ways and Means Committee because of an investigation into 2 corporate-funded trips to the Caribbean. Later that year, the House of Representatives formally censured him after he was found guilty of 11 ethics violations. Violations included failure to disclose over $600,000 in assets on a financial disclosure report as well as short changing the IRS for 17 years on rental income from his villa in the Dominican Republic. He also raided his PAC for $393,000 to pay legal fees.

. . . after he was found guilty of 11 ethics violations.

Not to mention tax evasion and rent fraud.

Dog bites man. It would be news if Rangel reported all of his donations.

As long as the 'low info' voter has his SNAP card, section 8 house, welfare check, and all the other subsistence payments, scum like Rangel could most likely commit murder and still be re-elected.

This is not a problem...they are both democrats and both are black.

You might be a racist for even reading the article.
