Secret Service agent’s book hits best-seller list (decries toxic Obama admin)
NY POST--PAGE SIX ^ | 11/30/13 | NY POST Page Six Team

Posted on 12/01/2013 3:59:08 AM PST by Liz

Dan Bongino resigned from the Secret Service in 2011 to run for a US Senate seat in Maryland (as a Republican). Bongino believes the “toxic” Obama administration is using government as a weapon exclusively to intimidate enemies. "We’re in a very dangerous place. There are so many scandals, and any one of them could be absolutely catastrophic for what this country stands for.” Bongino's book, “Life Inside the Bubble: Why a Top-Ranked Secret Service Agent Walked Away From It All,” published by WND Books hit the NYT best-seller list.

Bongino is running for congress, I believe in Maryland, vows to help Cruz, and Lee if elected.

Seen an interview with him, he’s the real deal.

The rats do not intend to lose another presidential election, . . . ever. They have the entire administrative state at their disposal. Think 2012 was bad? Not a single head has rolled from the IRS, ATF, FBI, OSHA.

Whoever the GOP candidate is, rest assured he will be rat approved.

Shortly after Obama and his motley crew are evicted in disgrace from the White Hut and Annex, they should each be audited by the IRS shortly before it is abolished.

Before they enter Leavenworth Prison they should be stripped of any benefits: pensions, insurance: everything.

Observe the twisted deranged progressive mind at work. As a community organizer, Obama sued banks to give out mtges to the underemployed----food stamps and SSI were considered "income." Now, as president, he's suing the same banks for predator lending---claims they are burdening these ne'er do well with mtges they can't possibly pay off.

==============================================

Where are Dimon's lawyers? Why aren't they looking into the sub-prime mtge racket--mtges aided and abetted by HOGAR---falsified, flipped and forgotten.

==============================================

OBAMMO/HOLDER COVER-UP massive mtge fraud perpetrated by the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (NOTE: O's gotta show "he cares" --- he's paranoid about getting latino votes to stay in power.

SUB-PRIME MORTGAGE SCAMS--MASSIVE LATINO MORTGAGE FRAUD ON CAPITOL HILL:

The Congressional Hispanic Institute, Inc, is an entity organized by Cong Joe Baca (D-Cali) in his capacity as head of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.

Cong Baca created "HOGAR" (Spanish for home) in 2003 to work with the mortgage industry, F/M, lenders, banks and latino community groups to increase mortgage lending to what savvy observers consider to be unqualified Latinos.

"HOGAR" colluded w/ Cong Baca in what was to become a massive bilking of taxpayers. Cong Baca calculatedly hyped the fact that the national Latino homeownership rate was 47%, compared with 68% for the overall population.

HOGAR was coached to call the figure "alarming," and to say "a concerted effort was required to ensure that by the end of the decade Latinos will share equally in the American Dream of home ownership."

HOGAR and Cong Baca conned the public, failing to note that most of the "dreamers" were illegals, citizens of Third World countries who had violated US borders.

Predictably, HOGAR colluded w/ co-conspirators which included:

(a) shaky mortgage companies that ran into big trouble;

(b) Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, both now under federal control after billions in taxpayer bailouts;

(c) Countrywide Financial Corp., sold to Bank of America Corp;

(d) Washington Mutual Inc., taken over by the US government and sold to J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.; and,

(e) New Century Financial Corp. and Ameriquest Mortgage Corp, both now defunct, killed by defaulted subprime Latino mortgages.

HOGAR's ties to the subprime mortgage industry were substantial. Bribery and self-dealing were rampant:

<><> Companies that donated $150,000 to Cong Baca got the right to have their own research fellow who would conduct fraudulent studies, which were cunningly used by industry lobbyists to pump lending.

<><> Bribery and extortion in the form of $100,000 annual donations to Cong Baca, for which HOGAR provided phony news releases from Cong Baca's Hispanic Caucus promoting a lender's commercial products to the Latino market,

<><> The most shocking example of bribery well- substantitated by Hogar's literature..... HOGAR announced it worked with Freddie Mac on a self-serving two-year examination of Latino homeownership in 63 congressional districts.

The "study" found Hispanic ownership on the rise thanks to "new flexible mortgage loan products" that the industry was adopting at the urging of Cong Baca's collusive coterie.

<><> HOGAR conned lenders into even more lenient down-payment and underwriting standards.

<><> As the subprime debacle unfolded, HOGAR declined repeated requests for comment despite the economic havoc their activities precipitated.

The mortgage schemes demonstrated the criminal activities of border violators with multiple identities---perhaps violent, terrorist-connected foreigners---colluding and conspiring to defraud private companies and public entities. And mortgage racketeering enterprises which employed sub rosa finance and business practices to carry out deceptions and frauds.

The alleged ring of swindlers---a Congresman, individuals with multiple identities, banks, insurance companies, mortgage brokers--might be charged with cheating the US govt, taxpayers and bank share holders out of hundreds of millions of dollars via an elaborate web of mortgage and bank frauds.

The mortgage Dreamers used multiple phony identities, fraudulent Social Security numbers, purchased from identity forgers in order to obtain govt-subsidized benefits.

L/E will find that individuals with multiple identities obtained fraudulent mortgages then flipped the houses at ever-higher prices to family member who then absconded to foreign countries, sticking banks (and taxpayers) with hundreds of millions in fraudulent mortgages.

BACKGROUND A Wall Street Journal investigative report related that, according to the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council examination of the borrowing spree, uncovered financial schemes by low-income housing groups, Hispanic lawmakers, a congressional Hispanic housing initiative, mortgage lenders and brokers, all colluding in fraduent schemes to increase homeownership among Latinos with forged documents which enabled massive fraud.

This was not simply the mortgage market at work. It was fueled by avarice, greed, and Congressional enabling fraudulent /practices. In 2005 alone, mortgages to Hispanics jumped by 29%; Latinos with multiple fraudulent identities in low-paying jobs obtained subprime mortgages for prime properties---soaring to 169%.

Interesting.

Either a new propaganda ploy by a Hillary turf group, or a dedicated man who should never drive his car again.

It is unfortunate that our entire political and social world has become Byzantium on steroids.

“I bet the IRS audits him and his family.”

If he’s lucky. The Imperium has a stable full of asses ready to disgorge any slip-ups on him and his family, including the family dog and extended relatives.

Juniors spitball throwing incident in the the 4th grade will become a mortar attack on his neighborhood under the minions’ media arm.

They scare me. Believe me, these people are beyond ruthless. They are evil.

He’s subbed for Chris Plante on WMAL (DC) a number of times, and is one of the good guys. He lost on his first attempt at a US Congress seat, but is running again. He’s good people.

Heard him subbing for Hannity last week - sounded like he has his head on very straight.
