Democrat Culture of Corruption #111:Obama’s Firing Of Inspector General Was A Cover Up For Sex Scandal Involving Sacramento Mayor!
The Washington Examiner has the story…
The charges are contained in a report prepared by Sen. Charles Grassley, the ranking Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, and Rep. Darrell Issa, ranking Republican on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
The investigation began after the AmeriCorps inspector general, Gerald Walpin, received reports that Johnson had misused some of the $800,000 in federal AmeriCorps money provided to St. Hope, a non-profit school that Johnson headed for several years.
Walpin was looking into charges that AmeriCorps-paid volunteers ran personal errands for him, washed his car, and took part in political
activities. In the course of investigating those allegations, the congressional report says, Walpin’s investigators were told that Johnson had made inappropriate advances toward three young women involved in the St. Hope program — and that Johnson offered at least one of those young women money to keep quiet.Johnson’s office did not respond to calls for comment Friday morning.
At the time, Rhee was on the board of St. Hope. A former St. Hope employee who reported one of the allegations of inappropriate sexual conduct by Johnson told Walpin’s investigators that Rhee “learned of the allegations and played the role of a fixer, doing ‘damage control,’” the congressional report says.
The employee told investigators that Rhee told her that “she was making this her number one priority, and she would take care of the situation.” A short time later, the employee learned that the girl who had complained about Johnson had received a visit from Johnson’s personal attorney.
The congressional report quotes the girl as saying the attorney “basically asked me to keep quiet,” and Johnson offered her $1,000 a month for the duration of her time with St. Hope. Once investigators learned about that, the report says, they had “reasonable suspicions about potential hush money payments and witness tampering at a federally funded entity.”
Well this is an interesting revelation! Back in June President Obama had written a letter stating that he had lost confidence in Walpin and was removing him from the position because of his lack of confidence he had in his ability to do his job effectively, he also added this “It is vital that I have the fullest confidence in the appointees serving as inspectors general”. So here’s the big question, apart from revealing a sex corruption scandal of one of Obama’s political allies what did Walpin do to merit his firing, have we ever gotten the story on that? When we hear the term Chicago style politics being brought to the White House, this is what we’re talking about… where political allies are protected regardless of the notion that honor and integrity is the best proposition for the people that the politicians are supposed to serve.
