Can someone please organize a farwell party for Charlie? BYOB of course!
Well, whaddyaknow ?????? His skull ISN’T
made of concrete.
HOW DID HE GET TO BE A MILLIONAIRE? Apparently Rangel has two bank accounts (that we know of) with $500,000 in each. Not counting what he's got stashed in offshore accounts.........he did not go to the Carib for the sun. Carib is a known money laundering haven.
Let's look at his earmarks.
And can Rangel prove where he spent $2 million from Congressional allocations, plus another $700,000 from the Dept of HUD) that went to the tax-exempt Charles B. Rangel Center for Public Service at City College of New York?
The NY Times reported oil-drilling businessman Eugene Isenberg made a $1 million pledge toward building The Rangel School for Public Service. Rangel later preserved a controversial offshore tax loophole that saved millions for Isenbergs company.
The Isenberg-Nabors deal is, potentially, far more serious: It reeks of a quid pro quo between Rangels official duties and fund-raising for his personal project.
The Times reported that Rangel held meetings the same day, at the same hotel, with Isenberg to discuss the CCNY project and then with Nabors chief lobbyist on the tax loophole.
