This story line just keeps getting more twisted as it goes along.
Seems the two brothers that founded ACORN have escaped embezzlement charges and are now housed in a former funeral home in New Orleans.
[The Service Employees International Union's New Orleans headquarters location that also houses ACORN is supposed to be home to more than 270 related corporations and non-profits.]
To the tune of $8 billion.
[Beck said Wade and Dale are listed as president or partner in dozens of companies based in the New Orleans building.
"[T]he big question remains unanswered: Millions of dollars flow into that building every year," Beck said. "Where does it go?"
Wade Rathke
He said ACORN received as much as $10 million in federal grants last year. But it could get up to $8 billion more after the House passed Rep. Barney Frank's amendment allowing organizations indicted for voter fraud or related crimes to receive taxpayer dollars today.
Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., urged Congress to block ACORN's access to federal housing funds.
"ACORN, as you know, is no stranger to the spotlight," Bachmann said outside the Capitol. "Yet no matter how many times prosecutors investigate and even indict ACORN and their employees, they emerge unblemished as far as the federal government is concerned from having access to federal tax dollars."]
