Obama Gives New Grant to ACORN, Violating Federal Law

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:

Education and Outreach Initiative grants (EOI) – HUD awarded $6.8 million to organizations that educate the public and housing providers about their rights and obligations under federal, state, and local fair housing laws. Groups will also conduct fair lending workshops, community meetings, and individual counseling activities focused on homeowners at risk for discrimination.

According to HUD, the grant money came out of fiscal 2010 appropriations. That’s a big problem.

    And the Republicans in the House of Representitives are allowing Obama to get away with another crime, they are not complicit, the are actually aiding and abetting him commit crimes. We The People MUST revolt – NOW.

      All the Republicans in Congress knew this black, muslim foreigner was not eligible to become president! Why do you think that is was a legitimate election??

      This muslim could have easily been kept off the ballot by any of the politicians in Washington.. None of them raised the issue of vetting him. In fact, the Republicans nominated the “most unlikely candidates” for the presidency. Why….the muslim was going to win, our presidency was “bought and paid” for long before the first vote was cast!

      You all can surmise why this was allowed by our elected representative….. My version is that in all those “closed door meetings” each and everyone has been told that the “World Elite” knew three years before that the muslim would be our president. It has been an orchestrated event by world powers and the muslim is the one that will ensure the fall of our country so that One World Government will become a reality. The United States is the one country that stood in the way. Our country needed to be brought to its knees and the people rendered powerless to act…When you keep this in mind, the actions or lack thereof, by our government against this fraud, it all makes sense..This man, this foreigner in House of the people, is being allowed to decimate our economy, he is allowed to dictate and go around Congress. Decisions are unilaterally made by him…

      The first step to the One World Government is the North American Union. It will be one of the five unions to divide the worlds countries. The NAU will include the U. S., Canada and Mexico. Think about it. There will be no borders, no Constitution, no sovereignty, no flag, and no Americans! All three countries will become one entity and use a single currency. The muslim is doing what tanks and armies could never have done. American could not be defeated by war. It has to be defeated from within and with the help of all our politicians…..!

      Wake up Americans. Everything that is happening is for a purpose, and our lives are being controlled by entities unknown to us! Our Constitution gives us the right to protect our country from a government gone rogue. In fact, it is the duty of all Americans to protect the country and the Constitution…when there is no legal recourse. Lawlessness reigns and there will be no help from those in power….

      It is tiring to hear the bleeping useless calls for “Impeachment!” No one is going to help….we are on our own…

      EXACTLY!!!!

  • proudamerican

    Here's as guy that has lied his way to his position (with dem. help), and has lied ever since with every sentence. Do you think
    he gives a rats a s s about violating a Federal law? If you do, you are logic challenged!

  • Gary

    This is how Chicago thugs operate. Why does this surprise anyone.

  • Teddy

    This is the reason that we do not raise the debt ceilling. Congress should not fund one more cent to this arrogant SOB. Let the credit rating fall where it may be. We can bring up the ratings once he is out of office. He along with George Soros wants the fall of America to come and they are doing a great job along with the dumb democratic senators & congressman/woman. So make sure that you send emails to your John Bohener & your congressman to stand firm.
    Not a "CENT" more.

  • Vicki

    There are many actions leading to impeachment so why hasn't he been impeached???

  • Anna

    Why

  • A G fearing American

    The only reason the house will not impeach O is because they think it will start riots and then he can declare martial law
    and we will have to go underground and all the Arabs will come after us and then he can declare that anyone that opposes him is a terrorist. The reps both Repub, Rino's, Dumbocrats Will go along with this traitor

  • ron

    How about this in the history books:

    "First president executed for treason"

  • ahrmand

    Obama is consistant. He cannot resist doing what Tricky Chicago Lawyers do best; spreading tax money around to personal friends and associations as a quid pro quo. "A crisis brings out the best and worst in people" is an olde axiom
    that bears consideration as the clouds of open conflict gather in all large Population centers world wide.
    Woe be it upon those unfortunates who find themselves in the Urban Battlefields across our Nation. For those who have cognitive abilities and courage to deal with reality; it is time to implement a survival strategy for yourself and loved ones.
    This is not going to be the end of the world. But it will be a test of human stamina on a bumpy grumpy road to the future.
    Have a safe trip.

    He needs Acorn in 2012 to stuff ballot boxes and help him win the election. He must be stopped any way we can. His ass is the worest most corrupt president in our history and he must be stopped. Get out in the streets with signs and march to send a message to washington. Our future is at stake. Jeff Day

  • horace

    Have any of you written your Congressmen? Have any of you written to anyone? Talk is cheap but action gets the job done. It must be done by the masses. Each & every one of you could continuously bombard each of your Congressmen & demand reform. I have done so. I don't know about you but I am ready to MARCH on the White House. Will you join me? It takes a multimillion person march to stop this sorry dog. He holds his head in the air in mockery of each of us, belittling us all the while & smiling with pride that he has ruined America & bragging that he is still doing it illegally. Time to march, time to march, time to march.

  • dale briggs

    first things first list all the crimes he has committed and have Congress higher a special prosecutor and the supreme court try him on TREASON FOR TRYING TO OVER THROW THE USA WITH THE AID OF THE BROTHER HOOD AND HIS OTHER FRIENDS BIG UNIONS MY OPINION

  • Daniel

    This is about the SHARIAH LAW being enacted across the United States of America, and Whoopi Goldberg along with the other two hosts of the The VIEW are promoting this new law. Whoopi Goldberg and her two co-host also promoting ACORN. Whoopi thinks anyone that don't support Emperior OBAMA, DEMOCRATS and the MUSLIM way of life, are wrong in their thinking what the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is going to be. GO TO H**L WHOOPI GOLDBERG, THE VIEW, NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, ONE WORLD ORDER and ONE WORLD CHURCH !!!

  • Frank L

    I guess it will take an act of god to rid America of Obama, since our Constitution in null-in-void to him.

  • David

    What is scary isn't so much Obama, but the support he's getting from both stupid people and those who have the same agenda he does to bring this country down. He's a whole lot more dangerous than anyone on America's most wanted criminals. He is unquesionably the most dangerous man in America.

  • friendly

    Be ready when they declare marshal law.

  • James

    Who voted for this Socialist Muslim anyway? If he is reelected, the Americans deserve what they get! I will watch it from a beautiful latin american country with my money … I suggest you do the same …

  • wisdomisbliss

    I'm soooo confused :-(
    All of my life, I've associated phrases like 'violation of federal law' with 'prepare to be arrested, tried, convicted and spend time in a small concrete room with bars'.
    What's the problem, then?

  • Luis R Vazquez

    It is only logic.
    The Presidential race is heating up and it is time to put the CHEATERS IN PLACE.

  • ltlolady

    That is a good question!! I read every day about him spending our money and sending it to this are that. They are some of our not so friendly Countrys even. I thought we had a rule that he would not keep spending money we don't have.

    God help us!

    President obama is simply following the Hugo Chavez manual he wrote called "Installing Marxism for Dummies." This does not get any easier to see yet America's "Ignorant Class" contnues to bury their heads in the sand. Be prepared for the "Summer of 2012." It is one of the last steps that will be taken in which to place the boot of Marxism on the necks of American's freedoms. Yes, blood will be flowng in the streets of large Metro areas all over America. Anarchy mst reign in which to install Marxism. America is no different from any other country where Marxist regime has been installed. The obama Regime (no, I do not capitalize his nam EVER!) is riddles with admitted hard core Marxist. Just a fact of life people. Do not think for a second that this is not the case. You will be wrong. You will be DEAD wrong.

  • Henry

    One word people. MARXISM. It doesn't get any easier than that.

  • frank1737

    The Senate and House of Representatives are to big of Chicken S–t's to impeach Obama & their too afraid of Blacks calling Discrimination.

  • 1 Texan

    the problem is we do not have a congress that will tell obuma NO, PERIOD. The senate is surely, some how involved with obuma and his attempts to destroy america, i guess. holder is going along for the ride as long as it lasts. He needs to be challenged by some congress with the guts to issue a subpoena to testify reference some of the ALLEDGED LAW VIOLATIONS BY OBUMA AND HIS COMMIE/SOCIALIST BUDDIES. Fast and furious guns, money to acorn illegally(?) unaccounted for stimulus tax payer taxes. Is there any reason to consider obuma can be impeached? If so, can I be told? Just look at the last election, black panthers standing ,IN VIOLATION OF VOTING LAWS,NEAR VOTING PLACES, AND HOLDER DISMISSED THE CHARGES? WERE WAS CONGRESS? Is there a watch dog for the citizens of america? How much are the people to take from politicians?
