Happy Dependence Day from Your Community Organizer Friends!

Matthew Vadum

It’s the Fourth of July once again, the day left-wing community organizers across America celebrate Dependence Day. What’s that? July 4 is called Independence Day, you say? Not to the radical mob-o-crats of ACORN, La Raza, SEIU, and the legions of other socialist groups that are swinging a wrecking ball at the foundations of this great republic. America is under siege as extremists determined to pulverize the U.S. Constitution deliberately bankrupt the nation, destroy the electoral system, and drive the economy into the ground. (And to boot, just in time for Dependence Day the Obama administration gave $79,000 of your … Continue reading Happy Dependence Day from Your Community Organizer Friends!

The ACORN ‘Useful Idiot’ Club welcomes Aunty Em of News Hounds

Matthew Vadum

Let’s have a big round of applause for blogger Aunty Em of the anti-Fox News hate site News Hounds. She’s the newest member of the ACORN ‘Useful Idiot’ Club. In a new post trashing Andrew Breitbart she makes the demonstrably false claim that the undercover ACORN videos that showed the group’s criminal inclinations were somehow “thoroughly discredited.” No facts, just a smear. Aunty Em, whoever you are, wherever you are, you’re an idiot in the service of error. * * * * * America needs to know that ACORN is restructuring in time to help re-elect President Obama in 2012. … Continue reading The ACORN ‘Useful Idiot’ Club welcomes Aunty Em of News Hounds

Writer of Rolling Stone hit piece on Michele Bachmann is a left-wing extremist

Matthew Vadum

It turns out that the author of a Rolling Stone hit piece on Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) hangs out with some unsavory characters, Trevor Loudon reports. The writer, Matt Taibbi, is the author of a fascinating piece of character assassination called “Michele Bachmann’s Holy War.” He received an award from the small-c communist organization known as Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). Notable members of DSA include anarchist-communist intellectual Noam Chomsky, ACORN hagiographer John Atlas, convicted East German spy Kurt Stand, and a galaxy of America-hating Marxists such as Frances Fox Piven. Should it then be any surprise that he characterizes Bachmann, now a … Continue reading Writer of Rolling Stone hit piece on Michele Bachmann is a left-wing extremist

Communist Cult Leader Wade Rathke Doesn’t Seem to Realize He is the Disaster that Hit Springfield

Matthew Vadum

Wade Rathke, the America-hating 1960s radical who founded ACORN, has a deliciously ironic post up on his Chief Organizer blog. It’s titled Springfield Story: Do We Learn from Disasters? In it this terrorism-loving agitator bemoans the foreclosure rate in Springfield, Mass., and praises the man who helped to cause it, Congressman Barney Frank (D-Mass.), calling the corrupt lawmaker –incredibly enough– a “banking expert and one-man accountability squad.” What ACORN’s real life Doctor Evil doesn’t say is that he caused a disaster in Springfield years ago. The sociopathic Rathke caused a riot in Springfield in order to advance his small-c communist objectives. As … Continue reading Communist Cult Leader Wade Rathke Doesn’t Seem to Realize He is the Disaster that Hit Springfield

Obama Flouts Federal Law, Funds His ACORN Friends Despite Congressional Ban

Matthew Vadum

Why is President Obama apparently defying federal law by funding ACORN? Judicial Watch discovered that the Obama administration is flouting the will of Congress by giving federal taxpayer money to ACORN. Obama’s Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) gave a $79,819 grant to the largest branch of the ACORN tree, ACORN Housing Corp. (AHC). AHC filed papers last year legally changing its name to Affordable Housing Centers of America (AHCOA). It’s the same old organization with a brand new ACORN-free name. Worse yet, the grant funds a political agitation and indoctrination program. Here’s HUD’s euphemistic description of the program: … Continue reading Obama Flouts Federal Law, Funds His ACORN Friends Despite Congressional Ban

Taxpayer funding isn’t a right: Supreme Court saved America from having budgets written by the courts

Matthew Vadum

Here is the top of my op-ed that appeared in yesterday’s Washington Times (and an article at WND quotes me): America’s long-suffering taxpayers scored a resounding victory as the Supreme Court told one of the nation’s foremost tax-eating groups to take a hike. The high court denied an appeal last week by the radical left-wing gangster group ACORN, ruling in effect that Congress was entitled to cut off federal taxpayer funding for the group, which routinely perpetrates voter fraud and encourages welfare recipients to buy houses they have no hope of paying for. ACORN still matters because reports of its demise have been exaggerated. … Continue reading Taxpayer funding isn’t a right: Supreme Court saved America from having budgets written by the courts

Taxpayer Funding Isn’t A Right — Unless You’re Jerrold Nadler

Matthew Vadum

It may sound like an observation worthy of Captain Obvious, but activist groups do not have a constitutional right to taxpayer funding. Amazingly, in ACORN et al. v. U.S. a federal judge in Brooklyn named Nina Gershon, not to be confused with Gina Gershon of Showgirls fame, actually ruled that ACORN had constitutionally protected rights in the congressional appropriations process and that those so-called rights had somehow been violated by an vewy vewy eeeevil vast right-wing conspiracy. Supposedly the Bill of Attainder Clause had been infringed and ACORN had been singled out for punishment without trail. This assumes, of course, that ceasing to fund an odious group … Continue reading Taxpayer Funding Isn’t A Right — Unless You’re Jerrold Nadler

The ACORN Useful Idiot Club welcomes Peter Hart of “FAIR”

Matthew Vadum

So many ACORN crime deniers, so little time. The latest to join the ACORN Useful Idiot Club is Peter Hart, the “activism director” at FAIR, which stands for Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting. Hart bitches about Andrew Breitbart, who publicized the undercover ACORN videos, calling him a “right-wing scam artist” and an “[i]nk [b]lot.” He whines about a New York Times profile on Breitbart which described the videos as depicting, in the words of the newspaper, “ACORN workers offering advice on how to evade taxes and conceal child prostitution.” This shameless liar states That wasn’t the lesson of the ACORN videos … Continue reading The ACORN Useful Idiot Club welcomes Peter Hart of “FAIR”

Justice Has Never Been High on Eric Holder’s Docket

Matthew Vadum

Although Eric Holder, who cannot conceal his visceral contempt for conservatives, heads the U.S. Department of Justice, doing the right thing isn’t high on his list of priorities. As Barack Obama gears up to use the White House (illegally?) for fundraising purposes, a case in point is the “maxed out” donors scandal. As I explain in my new book, Subversion Inc.: How Obama’s ACORN Red Shirts are Still Terrorizing and Ripping Off American Taxpayers, former ACORN employee Anita MonCrief testified under oath in 2008 that the Obama campaign gave a list of “maxed out” campaign donors to ACORN’s voter mobilization … Continue reading Justice Has Never Been High on Eric Holder’s Docket

ACORN is terrorizing and ripping off Canadian taxpayers too

Matthew Vadum

ACORN is terrorizing and ripping off Canadian taxpayers too. I wrote about it in Canada Free Press. America needs to know that ACORN is restructuring in time to help re-elect President Obama in 2012. Obama used to work for ACORN and represented the group in court as its lawyer. These radical leftists who use the brutal, in-your-face, Machiavellian pressure tactics of Saul Alinsky want to destroy America as we know it and will use any means to do it. Buy the book at Amazon.

The ACORN ‘Useful Idiot’ Club Welcomes Cynthia Tucker

Matthew Vadum

Atlanta Journal-Constitution pontificator Cynthia Tucker is never right about, well, anything, so it’s no surprise that she too has become an ACORN voter fraud denier. (By the way, it’s more fun when Rush Limbaugh calls the paper the Atlanta Urinal and Constipation, isn’t it?) Opines the columnist who is slightly to the right of Che, I know what you’re thinking: What about ACORN and its massive fraud? Well, quiet as it’s kept, neither ACORN nor its hired hands engaged in voter fraud. Because of its sloppy management practices, ACORN ended up with a few cheating workers who registered children or ex-felons or … Continue reading The ACORN ‘Useful Idiot’ Club Welcomes Cynthia Tucker

O’Reilly Factor: Newt Gingrich Lays Into Sarah Palin, Rudy Giuliani

Matthew Vadum

Laura Ingraham discussed my new book, Subversion Inc.: How Obama’s ACORN Red Shirts are Still Terrorizing and Ripping Off American Taxpayers, on the “O’Reilly Factor” last night. Ingraham noted that, according to Subversion Inc., Gingrich criticized Sarah Palin and Rudy Giuliani for treating Barack Obama’s background in radical left-wing community organizing as a joke. In my exclusive interview with Gingrich he said throwing rhetorical potshots at Obama at the 2008 Republican national convention “trivialized” Obama who is not at all a trivial person. In Gingrich’s view, Palin and Giuliani should have warned Americans about how dangerous and radical Obama was.

Terrorist-Linked ACORN Shill Brad Friedman Lies, Lies, and Lies Some More

Matthew Vadum

Left-wing pseudojournalist Brad Friedman thinks everything reported about ACORN is overblown. It’s all a scheme concocted by a vast right-wing conspiracy. Clearly he hasn’t read my book, Subversion Inc.: How Obama’s ACORN Red Shirts are Still Terrorizing and Ripping Off American Taxpayers. Friedman, who routinely chokes on his own robust self-esteem, is often a substitute host on the “Mike Malloy Show.” Malloy has serious, shall we say, psychiatric issues. He has called for the murder of former President George W. Bush, described Fox News as a “terrorist organization” that “wants to burn the country down,” and characterized Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-Minnesota) … Continue reading Terrorist-Linked ACORN Shill Brad Friedman Lies, Lies, and Lies Some More
