It seems the Administration is always looking for an angle. Here is another example. Now they have found a way to take money rightly due to victims and fund their activist friends organizations and bypass normal checks and balances. Any chance ACORN or it's successor will be a recipient?

The looting of America continues.

I wonder how much of this will be tapped by director's salaries, etc.? Lots of ways to siphon off money...

"We have a crook in charge of the justice department."

The Democrats lie cheat and steal as a way of life. They are immoral liars who believe that the end of getting and retaining power justifies anything they want to do. Now add to that the practiced illegality and criminal thuggery of the Chicago Mob and you have ... our current government!
