Caribbean-American Cong Yvette Clarke---member of the Congressional Caribbean Caucus.

The $120,000 tax dollars write-off scheme in NY Cong Yvette Clarke's office is being exposed....only one of the thirty House Democrats likely involved in this scenario.

NOTE Does Clarke know about money-laundering in Caribbean banks? Did she do anything about it in Congress?

THE QUESTION: how did Yvette Clarke not notice (A) that her office purchased tech equipment, (B) in large quantities her office might not plausibly need, (C) and never actually materialized at Clarke's office.

<><> Being scrutinized is Clarke's office falsifying invoices----buying expensive equipment----reporting it stolen and reselling the equipment out the back door.

REALITY CHECK Equipment purchased by members’ offices is normally tracked closely by central House-wide administrators, but House rules allow micro-purchases under $500 to be treated more informally. That rule was exploited by Clarke's office.

<><> the supplier, CDW Government, Inc then made up the difference in the actual price by inflating the cost of a service plan.

<><> More shockingly, the equipment Cong Clarke ordered was delivered ..... not to the Congressional office...... but to her IT, Imran Awan’s house, a knowledgeable source said.

However, Democrat Clarke (or a high-level staffer with financial responsibility in the member's office) would still have to sign a voucher for each such purchase.

Give a guess....what did (gag) Congressman Al Green (pictured) tweet as a Christmas messag

Says he's going to remove bigotry from the Trump WH. Sicko sees bigotry where none exists.
He should audition for Preparation H commercials (hat tip Elsie).

Our rulers don’t seem to understand just how tired their white subjects are with this experiment. They don’t understand that white people aren’t out to get black people; they are just exhausted with them.

They are exhausted by black social pathologies, black violence, the endless complaints, the blind racial solidarity, the bottomless pit of black grievances, the excuses, the reflexive animosity.

The elites explain everything with “racism,” and refuse to believe that white frustration could soon reach the boiling point.

That in and of itself makes it a racist organization. Why am I not surprised that a blatantly racist organization exists in the very heart of our government?

“One savvy freeper says it it possible to send intel surreptitiously using video games.”

What I know about program code hacking, you could put on the head of a pin and have room for the constitution.

However, our family IT, a 16 year old grandson, a participant in the Math Olympics for years and a STEM major, says this:

“Any code on a game, smart phone, tablet, laptop and desktop computer can be hacked. After it is hacked you can put in some code that is not good for any of us besides the hackers!”

A caucus based on skin color. That doesn’t sound racist at all. Someone should start an all white caucus just to make them blow their gaskets.

Corruption, fraud and bribery are ongoing problems at the Congressional Black Caucus.

Until recently, just to notice the corruption fraud and bribery was to accept the moniker of 'racist'...

That's not the case today - we're winning on the race scene. It's happening.

Oh Dear me.

The lobotomized Super Mouth's unbridled arrogance will swell even more.

Given that pride goes before a fall, her descent is likely to be rather catastrophic for anyone within a mile or 3.

Maybe she'll trip over her tongue and stick her hard pointed head in the sidewalk.

Maybe the rest of her body will disappear on prime time while her super mouth just hangs in the air yapping like a stuck-on-stupid Cheshire Cat from Alice's realm.

Maybe some brave patriotic media soul will insure that the next interview she has, every time she opens her mouth, the sound adults make on Peanuts TV shows & movies is all the sound that will be heard.

I think it would be a riot if for 24 hours, everyone she met acted like they could not hear any sound coming out of her super mouth--everyone--no matter how loudly she yelled and spewed.

It might also be a riot for someone to make an audio loop of 25 of her most stupid spews and insure it played at considerable volume within the walls of her abode.

I hope someone has the courage to tell her the next time she extols about being a queen:

"Yeah, but perched with your nose in the air on a huge pile of horse biscuits is still a real stinky business."

Or maybe they could ask her if she thinks she's queen of:

--terminally empty blackness, or
--the huge congregation of politico Super mouths (i.e. those for whom their mouths have expanded larger than their hips), or
--the large class of clueless liberal hidiots, or
--the caucus of lobotomized politicos, or
--the clique of unaware, uninformed, sinecures, or
--the Olympic gold medalists in Unparalled Stupid, or
--the Supreme Counsel of Dem Dead voters, or
--the group of all PMS afflicted Post Mid Age Crisis Black Drag Queens desperately trying to extend their 15 min. of fame?

I wonder how we could send her a bill for all the outrageously 'illegal' and unpatriotic, treasonous use of all the air and space she's taken up yapping all these years.

CONGRESS HAS A BLACK CAUCUS RACISM PROBLEM
The vicious cycle of racism and thievery in the CBC must be broken.

The Congressional Black Caucus had a front seat to #MeToo with the revelation that $220,000 had been paid out to a staffer alleging sexual harassment by Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-FL), a former judge impeached for bribery whose girlfriend has been on his payroll to the tune of $2.4 million, and that Rep. Conyers (D-MI) had his own sexual harassment settlement. That scandal forced Rep. Conyers to resign and hand the seat to his son at the behest of his wife, Monica, who had been convicted of bribery.

Corruption, fraud and bribery are ongoing problems at the Congressional Black Caucus.

After two decades of financial scandals, Rep. Corrine Brown (D-FL) was convicted of running a fake charity and sentenced in December. Rep. Chaka Fattah (D-PA) was sentenced last December for bribery, fraud and money laundering. His son, Chaka Fattah Jr, was already in prison on unrelated bank fraud charges. Around the same time the wife of Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (D-Il) had wrapped up her prison sentence after her husband had ended his prison term a year earlier on fraud charges.

Hardly a year goes by without a criminal case involving a member of the Congressional Black Caucus.

Bribery and fraud, fake charities and money laundering to pay for the high life are familiar CBC themes . Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. bought a gold Rolex, Michael Jackson and Malcolm X memorabilia, and mink capes. Rep. Brown stole from poor children to pay for an NFL luxury box (won’t you take a knee) and a Beyonce concert. Chaka Fattah Jr. bought Hermes ties and a Ritz-Carlton condo.

These aren’t aberrations. They’re part of the culture of corruption at the Congressional Black Caucus.

The year that Barack Obama, a former CBC member whose level of corruption outdid any of his former colleagues by climbing into the high stratospheric billions and using the Justice Department to run a massive slush fund, took office, every single House member investigated on ethics charges was CBC. A former study suggested that a third of CBC legislators had faced an ethics probe.

That’s what a culture of political corruption looks like.

But the Congressional Black Caucus has consistently blamed all of its corruption troubles on racism. And CBC members would always play the race card. Rep. Corrine Brown had improbably claimed that Obama’s DOJ had targeted her because “I’m a black woman with a mouth.”

It’s the same old racist excuse. And racism is the usual cover story for CBC corruption.

When Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) was accused of stealing a woman’s first class airplane seat, she claimed that it only happened “because I was an African American woman, seemingly an easy target.” The woman she casually accused of racism had no previous idea of who even stole her seat. And as a Democrat and a human rights activist was probably angry about her lost seat, not the politician’s race.

No one can be too surprised at a politician receiving preferential treatment at the expense of ordinary citizens. Especially a politician who had once allegedly howled, “You don’t understand. I am a queen, and I demand to be treated like a queen.” It’s the eagerness with which CBC members shut down any conversations about their corruption with casual accusations of racism that is the real problem.

The worst offender in the Conyers sexual harassment case wasn’t actually the congressman in question. It was another Black Caucus member who came to his defense by accusing his victims of racism.

Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) allegedly claimed that Conyers’ accusers were all white women. And suggested that the accusations were somehow racially motivated. Other CBC members threatened Democrats who criticized Rep. Conyers and there were suggestions that the calls for his resignation were racist.

“Do you go and stalk white people’s houses or just come to the black neighborhoods and stalk our houses?” Monica Conyers demanded.

The claim that Rep. Conyers’ accusers were “all white women” proved to be a lie. But it shouldn’t have mattered what race the women accusing a politician of sexual harassment were. Nor should it have mattered what race the passenger whose seat Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee allegedly stole might have been.

The reflexive accusations of racism by Congressional Black Caucus members hurled at their alleged victims and at any attempt to bring them to justice is at the root of the CBC’s culture of racial corruption. The Caucus is a racially exclusive body. And it uses race and racism as weapons to protect its privileges of power. It doesn’t admit white politicians who represent African-American districts.

“It is critical that its membership remain exclusively African American,” Rep. William Lacy Clay Sr. (D-MO) had written. Referring to a white Democrat’s membership bid from an African-American district, he declared that, “he does not, and cannot, meet the membership criteria unless he can change his skin color.” It’s the same familiar mantra of slavery and segregation but with a politically correct twist.

Rep. Clay has paid out nearly a million dollars in campaign funds to his sister’s law firm.

“We supported the tradition that only African-Americans have been full members of the CBC,” insisted Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick (D-MI), whose son and husband would be convicted on charges that included fraud and racketeering.

Urban political machines have a long history of exploiting ethnic and racial solidarity to maintain their grip on power. The Congressional Black Caucus did not invent an original form of corruption. Tammany Hall went through various ethnic incarnations as one immigrant group made way for another.

The Congressional Black Caucus is not uniquely corrupt because it is black. But it uses racial solidarity and animosity to protect its insidious corruption. The CBC uses the idea of racial persecution to convince the African-American areas it preys on to turn a blind eye to its corruption. And it depicts its critics and victims, whether they are the women groped by Rep. Conyers or the poor children ripped off by Rep. Brown, as pawns or perpetrators of a racist conspiracy against black people.

The CBC’s merger of xenophobia and corruption is nothing new. But it’s a uniquely toxic tactic to utilize during a time of racial tensions. The Caucus styles itself as the “conscience of the congress”, but it has no conscience. It’s become a gang of thieves united by greed, racial solidarity and racial animosity.

The Congressional Black Caucus is uniquely destructive to black people and to the entire country. Its corrupt civil rights icons have long since become mirrors of the very thing they once fought against. And their accusations of racism are reflections of their own racism and their own racial privileges.

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee and Rep. Clyburn’s accusations show how the perniciously corrupt culture of the CBC’s racial solidarity has turned race and racism into unlimited justifications for their own abuses. The Caucus’ racism and corruption feed into each other in a vicious cycle that spurs its members to greater ethics violations and noisier accusations of racism. The corruption charges then become proof of racism.

The more CBC members are arrested and jailed, the more the Caucus doubles down on the conviction that the only reason they were jailed is racism. And then it exploits that sense of racial grievance to justify even more corruption. This vicious cycle of racism and thievery in the CBC must be broken.

Congress has a racism problem. Its name is the Congressional Black Caucus.
