Ever wonder why a dirt-bag like The Reverend Al Sharpton has not yet felt the weight of the long arm of the law? On Monday it became less of a mystery. It isnt much of a stretch to believe that Sharpton is a liar and race pimp of the worst kind. He does little that does not benefit him directly. Now the good Reverend has fresh bullet points to add to his CV; shakedown artist and rabble-rouser extraordinaire, it turns out that Sharpton was also tightly bound to the mob and subsequently agreed to be flipped by the FBI to save his own, glossy hide.
Widespread conviction that Sharpton puts the most repellant, two-faced weasel to shame is well founded but such accusations are serious. Too bad, then, that The Smoking Gun can prove it. The Smoking Gun is in possession of hundreds of pages of documentation, FBI files, depositions, affidavits and DEA reports verifying Sharptons activities. On Monday The Smoking Gun released a multi-page exposé, chronicling Sharptons 30-year expansion into the underworld and his corresponding gelding once he became an FBI informant. Sharpton didnt turn snitch in his zeal to become a good citizen; the FBI bluffed him with the threat of prosecution. Sharpton, despite his trademark, sanctimonious protestations that hed stood tough, had, in fact, folded like a cheap suit. As recently as Monday, in a stellar illustration of liberal I-say-so-and-that-makes-it true wishful thinking, Sharpton stubbornly refuted every allegation that he was ever an informant, despite previously having admitted to less damaging accusations. But The Smoking Gun had the goods and called his bluster: If Sharptons account is to be believed, he was simply a concerned citizen who voluntarily (and briefly) joined arm-in-arm with federal agents, perhaps risking peril in the process. The other explanation for Sharptons cooperationone that has uniformly been offered by knowledgeable law enforcement agentspresents the reverend in a less noble light. Worried that he could face criminal charges, Sharpton opted for the path of self-preservation and did what the FBI asked In fact, Sharpton fell for the FBI ruse and agreed to cooperate, a far-reaching decision he made without input from a lawyer, according to sources.
Sharpton had tentacles deep into organized crime. He is inextricably linked with the Genovese and Gambino crime families. Sharpton grassed for the FBI when confronted with those associations. Sharpton even had an FBI code name, CI-7. The Smoking Gun reports: Genovese squad investigatorsrepresenting both the FBI and NYPDrecalled how Sharpton deftly extracted information from wiseguys. In fact, one Gambino crime family figure became so comfortable with the protest leader that he spoke openlyduring ten wired face-to-face meetingsabout a wide range of mob business, from shylocking and extortions to death threats Sharptons briefcasea specially customized Hartman modelrecorded his every word.
Sharpton was not only useful in mob investigations. His assistance extended to investigations into the seamy side of the sports and music industries, gathering evidence from the likes of Don King and James Brown. Reverend-talk-tough was also passed around by the FBI to other agencies, like a $10 hooker, from the mid- 1980s on: In addition to aiding the FBI/NYPD task force Sharptons cooperation extended to several other investigative agencies.
Sharpton has now become, in his own words, a refined agitator. This metamorphosis comes as a result of his close ties to The Lyin King. The Smoking Gun states: the new Sharptons public prominence and West Wing access is bewildering considering that his history, mob ties included, could charitably be described as checkered. In fact, Obama has banished others guilty of lesser transgressions (see: Wright, Jeremiah) Sharptons checkered past includes use of epithets like faggot and homo, derision of Jews, engineering the Tawana Brawly hoax, responsibility for seven dead at Freddies Fashion Mart not to mention, according to Breitbart, Sharptons multi-million dollar tax evasions and personally extorting corporations, in order to gouge large contributions for his shady charities.
Sharptons tight link to the White House is serious. Eric Holders DOJ had reported Sharptons criminal ties to the White House prior to The Lyin Kings last inauguration; at which The Rev was seated in a place of honor. He appeared on the dais, in front of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The Smoking Gun continued: The former mob snitch has become a regular in the White House He has also attended Obama Christmas parties, speeches, policy announcements, and even watched a Super Bowl with the First Family During these gatherings, he has mingled with cabinet members, top Obama aides, military leaders, business executives, and members of Congress. Truth Revolt added on Monday that: President Obama is lending his political support to fellow community organizer Al Sharpton by headlining the MSNBC hosts National Action Network (NAN) conference this week in New York. Obamas choice to headline the conference underscores the close ties of the two leaders and provides an increased sense of political legitimacy to the controversial leader
Why shouldnt The Lyin King promote his bosom buddy? They are both textbook community organizers and controversial leaders. Sharpton hasnt done anything that The Lyin King himself hasnt executed himself
BOs just done things on a much grander scale.
No Mr. Sharpton, what you are is lying, POS, Ghetto, Pimp.
This man and his shakedown brother Jesse Jackson have a lot of nerve calling themselves “Reverends.”
He was busted in a drug sting, and did it to save his own, stinking carcass. But he did wind up doing something decent, for once in his miserable life.

MSNBC should immediately fire Al Sharpton....period!!! The man is a fingered criminal, drug dealer!!! End of story!!!
Sharpton stubbornly refuted every allegation that he was ever an informant.
Tony says hey it’s no problem it’s just business bang sound to ensue.
He fits right in with the jerks at MSNBC. I doubt he will be going anywhere.

MSNBC must be soooooooo proud....
They are reverends...they revere money, power and themselves. All else...not so much.
I want to know why Menendez and his crooked doctor friend in Florida aren’t being charged with having sex with children, among other things?
Democrats get away with anything. Is there any justice in this country?
