A public-interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption wants to know why the Department of Health and Human Services is giving so much in healthcare grants to a racial identity organization.
Judicial Watch is questioning why federal funding for the National Council of La Raza nearly tripled from $4.1 million to $11 million in fiscal year 2010, the year former La Raza executive Cecilia Munoz joined the Obama administration. She now serves as the director of the White House Domestic Policy Council.
Tom Fitton is president of Judicial Watch, which is suing to obtain documents through the Freedom of Information Act related to the grants awarded to La Raza between September 11, 2009 and September 20, 2011.
“There are always going to be groups out there that work with politicians in office. That’s the reality of politics in America,” acknowledges Fitton. “But those groups shouldn’t have federal funding go from 4 [million dollars] to 11 million [dollars] just because their people are in the White House. That’s where you get the potential for corruption.”
He says one might question why a group like La Raza is getting any federal grant money at all.

Obummer, his crony friends are romping and stomping the taxpayers and laughing all the way to the bank.
This is ObamaLand and the Dem way.
Here’s another thought that should be looked into.
RICO act. Well, it looks to me like congress in its entirety and every person that works in it, the white house and every single person that works in it and draws federal paychecks, the justice department and every single person that works directly or indirectly and every single department there-in, and every single employee of the federal government of the United States of America regardless of job description is and has been involved in criminal activity as an organization and every member of congress, including pages, secretaries, mail runners and every single employee therein, and everybody that works in the white house and the justice department, every single worker for the federal government at every level should be arrested and charged under the RICO act as an ongoing criminal organization. That would include every judge, bailiff, secretary, toilet cleaner and every single worker in the justice department nationwide is and has been committing crimes against the Natural Born Citizens of the United States of America and should be arrested, jailed without bond until convicted of the crimes they have committed. Upon conviction they should be sent to prison, general population, to serve not less than life without the possibility of parole. Just like the drug dealers and anybody else that has been charged under that act. There Crimes will start with Treason. They have been lying, stealing and cheating the Natural Born Citizens of the United States of America. I can’t see any difference between them and the Mafia, if there ever was such a thing, or Motorcycle “Gangs”, or Gun Smugglers, Drug Smugglers or any RICO defined organization. When convicted ‘All’ their assets and I mean everything they own should be confiscated and put in the general fund to help the needy Natural Born Citizens of the United States of America. Everything they have was derived from their criminal activity while working in the Criminal Organization we know as the Federal Government. That includes all of their kids’ stuff and of course the wives and mistresses property. Seize, confiscate all property of any description. Freeze all bank accounts. Their sentences after a quick trial and conviction will be Life in, General Population, Prison without the possibility of Parole. Creation of construction jobs for a lot of new prisons for these poor folks. Give the sons and daughters the choice of Prison for life or Front Line Combat Positions. Well, they get a choice. Then we can go after the middlemen that were involved in defense procurement that were instrumental in ripping off the taxpayers for the last 75 years and we can prosecute the dead criminals posthumously.
