Gerald Walpin, inspector general fired by Obama, dies
Washington Examiner ^ | 6-24-2016 | Byron York

Gerald Walpin, the inspector general who was at the center of controversy in 2009 when he was fired by the White House amid an investigation of an Obama friend, died today. He was 84.

Walpin's son-in-law, Allan Tananbaum, said Walpin was struck by a car while crossing a street in Manhattan.

Walpin was fired in June 2009 for his investigation of the misuse of money in AmeriCorps, the service organization that was part of the Corporation for National and Community Service, where Walpin served as inspector general. The investigation focused on Kevin Johnson, the former NBA star who became mayor of Sacramento, Calif., and was a prominent Obama supporter.

Last year he wrote an article about being discriminated against as a non minority Yale alumni. I was just reading it a couple of weeks ago and book marked it. For some reason I was thinking about him as he was one of the first to get the raw end of the deal.

If the gutless Republicans would have impeached hussein over his firing we could have avoided the last 7 yrs. yet they let this man’s career be sullied and his reputation be tarnished.

It was a terrible situation and he was very wronged. It was a double whammy when the admin tried to make him out to be ‘senile’.

Maybe no contact. No one in typical white granny’s apartment is talking. All we really know is he went into the building and came out half an hour later. He could have been riding the elevator up and down and up and down for all anyone knows.

Obama and Democrats get away with Blatant Corruption because 1. he’s BLACK, so laws don’t apply to him and 2. DEMOCRATS NEVER FOLLOW LKAWS!!!

A lot of players dying all of a sudden. Someone seems to be erasing history. The media and Fed departments seem to be turning at the same time. Things that make you go hmmm.

Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson:

Mar 23, 2016 at 4:10a ET

Kevin Johnson is under fire this week after several women appeared on HBO's "Real Sports" to tell their stories of alleged sexual misconduct by the former Phoenix Suns star, who's served as the mayor of Sacramento since 2008.

I remember the first scandal where the man in the White House intervened,everyone knew it was a coverup,and would be more to come. All he has done for Sacramento was for people of color, and the Arena he has been working on has been all polotics. Just another freebie looking for a place to scam.
