ACORN Scandal, Part 2: The Evidentiary Phase
by Andrew BreitbartThe last two months of the growing ACORN scandal have focused on the damning videos shot by James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles.
In seven out of eight offices, ACORN employees attempted to aid and abet O’Keefe and Giles’ illicit “scheme” to establish a brothel for underage illegal-immigrant prostitutes from Central America. .
That phase has been tabled for a future date, as I forthrightly stated last Thursday evening to Attorney General Eric Holder on FOX NEWS’ Hannity show.
The next phase will be the evidentiary phase. Starting with, but not limited to an extraordinary document dump at the San Diego office that was one of the offices O’Keefe and Giles exposed, causing the firing of a single employee.
On October 1, California Attorney General Jerry Brown, who once again aspires to be the state’s governor, announced that he was investigating not just ACORN in California, but also the truth tellers who exposed the alleged corruption and illegality.
Last night, I hosted a three-hour show on KFI 640 AM, the largest radio station in the country, and use the opportunity to announce the existence of 20,000 deeply sensitive and highly political documents discovered in the dumpster behind ACORN in San Diego on October 9, nine days after ACORN was announced to be under state investigation.
Some might call that “obstruction of justice.”
Listen to the entire interview with the private investigator who filled his Suburban with the documents in the following audio. It is explosive radio that hopefully shows the proper authorities that ACORN is making a mockery of this country’s laws and judicial process.

We are a nation of laws. The Attorney General of California and the attorney general of the United States have made a solemn oath to uphold these laws. Attorney General Holder and Attorney General Brown are arguably the two most powerful law enforcement officers in the country.
We are willing to facilitate copies being sent of all the documents recovered from the public dumpster outside the ACORN office and forward these to Attorneys General Brown and Holder. There are reasons ACORN dumped these documents before the scheduled visit by Brown’s office. The question millions want to know, now that ACORN has again brazenly mocked our nation’s laws: Will Holder and Brown do their jobs?

Any takers?
I don't see how they cannot do their jobs. america is watching you holder and brown.

They will do the jobs they were hired to do: promote the leftist agenda of the Obama administration by any means. I'd like to imagine they were hired to enforce the law, but I'm not that naive any more.
It would have been cool if they had hired PI's for each of the sites they visited to watch for this kind of activity when the videos were released……Or maybe they did? This is getting good!
They will get right on that. They will first handle the Black Panthers in Philly.
Though it is well known that I detest all things lawyerly, I must admit to giggling like a little girl at the prospect of ACORN being hammered into nothingness on the anvil of the law. If any organization deserves it, ACORN does.
ACORN: Too incompetent to even use a shredder.
They will get right on it as soon as they finish their investigation of James and Hannah!
If the Government wont do anything, it is high time the people took back the country and bring justice to the people.
Let the VIGALANTIES RIDE and correct the injustices brought about by those that hold greed and political agenda over the constitution.
And the Vegas odds are?
I would like to agree with you. However, it is simply amazing how my very smart and educated friends can simply brush aside the ACORN scandle, as they do with other irregularities of the current adminstration and Congress. It seems that many prefer to be numb, rather than have to deal witht the serious problems and corruption we have allowed to fester in our current government.
Thank you Andrew – brilliant!
Thank you for continuing to pound Acorn and their cronies! We are clearly witnessing a history-altering development for the country and for politics. May the utter weight of criminal activity and political deal-making bring Acorn and the DNC powerbrokers to their knees! Then…. Ninja star… swoosh!
Give’em Hell Andrew, this is great fun.
And the plot thickens… DUN DUN DUN??
I agree. They won't do anything. Obstruct, obfuscate, obscure.
Andrew, you are so gonna have that helicopter to jump from skyscraper to skyscraper in Manhattan…you capitalistic pig you! I thank God you are on this and others are starting to follow suit. I am encouraged more than I would have believed five months ago. Thank you! I knew when Hannah and James broke their story, with you giving them a platform, that there would be more to come. It is the nature of the beast. I cannot wait to hear what all of this entails!
Good job, Andrew. Once again you shine a bright light into roach infested ACORN.
"Despise the enemy strategically, but take him seriously tactically."…. Mao Tse-Tung
DUNN DUNN DUNN
There is a whole rogue's gallery of politicians running for re-election and election that are ACORN defenders like Jerry Brown. And, of course they split right down party lines. Nothing sums up the corrupt state of the Democrat party than its defense of the indefensible.
ACORN is now synonymous with election fraud and gross corruption and the public fully understands that. The Democrats are idiots to think that they can escape being painted by that brush. They either denounce ACORN or pay for their hubris and lack of ethics at the polls.
Brown has made a very bad choice.
What does this have to do with the ACORN story? Go post this on another website.
Any BM's (Biased Media) out there calling to pick up more information on this story? No, I guess not. The BM's are busy trying to write what Palin's doing wrong ( and she's not holding any public office), or trying to dig up something on Andrew, and just about anything else but report about ACORN corruption.
Hey we know what BM's are don't we.
The BM's are just full of leftist crap and to them ACORN is just great. They need to be sent some laxatives to move all that leftist crap out of their system. Then maybe they could
"The government, which was designed for the people, has got into the hands of the bosses and their employers, the special interests. An invisible empire has been set up above the forms of democracy"……..Woodrow Wilson
I hope those documents are safe and that copies exist already. Here is what will happen next: A suponea and search warrant will be issued to confiscate the documents which will then be "reviewed" by the states attorney. Nothing or at the best, something minor will be found inappropriate in them.
In the mean time, Big Government and A Breitbart will be found guilty of obstructing justice and possible extortion. Those charges will then lead to Liable and Slander by Acorn directly AFTER they claim you stole the documents.
watch your 6 guys! do not put anything past them as you have made them desperate and they are fighting for their lives and have powerful friends.
Then adapt, improvise and overcome. Si se puede.
this is getting good, how many more shoes can drop before those dolts ever do their jobs, and investigate this criminal organization? out of little acorn grow giant tree of crime
ACORN: too impudent to shred documents. The fix has been in for decades, we just had no idea.
Posted on comments to an earlier-today article by Derrick Roach on this same topic. I was so impressed with last night's roll-out on 640am that I wanted to make sure Andrew B read this comment about using a radio talk show venue for discovery roll-out. . . And thanks again Mr Breitbart, Hannah, James, and Derrick.
———————————
This (document dump discovery) is a potentially devastating shot fired across the bow of yet another Ship of Corruptocrats, The SS-Acorn.
Last night's radio show broadcast (Andrew on am 640 Los Angeles) was a highly effective venue of introducing the newest, explosive information dump discovery. Why?. . .time to rollout all the points and discuss events, discoveries, and what next — more time to inform vs a quick tv news show segment.
Why not blitz the radio markets to get the buzz out on this latest evidence discovery and gain the ear of those who prefer their information from radio news shows? Maybe enough disgruntled Americans left to start directly requesting answers from Holder, Brown, and the rest of the "See, Hear, Speak – No Evil" crowd.
Additionally, many of the radio shows reach the folks who might not have as much time to spare to watch tv or view internet.
Thanks Again — Andrew, James, Hannah, Derrick!
Great show last night Andrew. You have many talents and Radio talk show host is another one you can add to your resume. Nice touch with DEVO I liked that.
I've noticed that too – like they almost WANT to be willingly ignorant and blind to what's going on.
You talk about it – they cover their ear and yell loudly "La, La, La…"
You put it in print in front of them – they cover their eyes and talk about Who's Dancing with Washed-Up Stars Survivor.
You ask them a question – they change the subject.
Most of them, I really think, are doing it because they don't want to admit they made a mistake in supporting and voting for this corrupt bunch.

I but if you rad all the documents you will find Jerry Brown's name.
aaaaaaaahhhh
"Self Inflicted Ignorance" should be a definition in some psychlogical diganostic manual.
Progressives excell at lying to others, but also lying to themselves, they have raised it to a high art form.
thank you all for what you are doing and I tell the people we have to help get your cameras keep your eyes open get your recorders and lets help them . It is time for all good citizens take our country back from all this corruption and then from the union bosses and any big business that is corrupt. By the time this falls then the corrupt politicians will fall,then we the people will have our voice united as one then they will listen the first time we say no.
BBI (Breitbart Bureau of Investigation) the new FBI?
Since our own government is complicit in this it only makes sense that an outside loosely formed organization of self appointed investigators would have to uncover it.
This is being run extremely well, makes me wonder if this isn't a op that is being assisted by former's, if not BB missed his calling, LMAO
The next phase after this one may actually be the most dangerous, for everyone, not just the operators, God's speed BB!
Nah, Brown won't have any repercussions. After all, he's a CALIFORNIA Democrat (is that redundant?) These people are NUTS!!! They made him Governor at one time. And the kind of people who vote for Gov. Moonbeam Brown are the same ones who probably think that ACORN is doing God's work and that they are getting a raw deal from us damn Republicans. Of course, they also think the MSM isn't biased – only FOX News is.
ACORN just submitted a requisition for 10,000 crosscutting shredders from office depot today. All paid for by the taxpayers (teehee)
"Hold on to the Constitution, for if the American Constitution should fail, there will be anarchy throughout the world."
Daniel Webster
BBI (Breitbart Bureau of Investigation) the new FBI or the first viral intelligence agency?
Oh I think we are going to find out that there is a lot more than just a few PI's doing pro bono work at ACORN dumpsters, yes I do.
Since our own government is complicit in this it only makes sense that an outside loosely formed organization of investigators some cooperating, others working on their own, would be the only ones to uncover it since no one else can be trusted or for that matter is interested.
Obama wants' his minions to report on us, but guess what, we can watch and report on you as well you bunch of fascists!
Nice work Mr. B, the dominoes' are starting to tip!

Andrew, et al., please stay far away from open elevator shafts.
There is nobody in this world that the Obama administration wants more dead.
"Send Lawyers, guns, and money." Warren Zevon.
It brings to mind the Borne books and movies – you've done such BAD stuff – you get Amnesia about it.
bbi i like that our fbi is controlled by holder so their useless right now
Shoot the Lawyers with the gun and take their money. All the Problems solved!!
prob is the people in cali wil vote for him look how many times polousy been re elected boxer ect ect maybe its the sir from al the fires and cars or earthquakes that rattles their brains and make them useless
It's racism…
A thought
The employee's of ACORN seem to be well versed in criminal culture, wouldn't that be an interesting story if ACORN was stealing CC numbers from the poor and using them for, oh I don't know, giving donations to Democrat candidates, like Obama?
Remember that, Obama had tons donations that could not be explained via CC, now that would take an organized effort, and organization that had access to certain information and was well versed in fraud techniques.
It might be interesting to correlate cases of identity fraud with names on those documents, especially the Obama angle, it would not surprise me at all if ACORN would take information, you know to help the poor, and then turn around and sell it or use it, for the greater good I mean (LMAO)

Andrew,
Thank you!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!!
I can't say enough how fortunate this country and it's people are to have you, James & Hannah stepping up and showing the politicians first hand the will of the people! They opened Pandora's box and they will be damned trying to shut it again!
My, My, My!! What a tangled web ACORN weaves!!
and the MSM won't do jack, either.
Don't count on Brown and Holder doing their jobs. They think they are above having to enforce the law on their friends. They are both bought and paid for by this criminal enterprise and both need to hand off the investigation to say a military investgator to avoid the corruption that is so rampant in their offices. Both of these guys are probably going to be found to be part of the criminal conspiracy so they won't do a damn thing other pay lip service. If theyw ere to open the investigation for real they would be going to jail as well. Wake Up America!
like most of the politcal hacks inthis country they are the problem and expecting them to police their friends who supply them with campaign bribes is foolish beyond belief! Wake Up america! Thanks for your hard work Mr. Brietbart it is people like you who will help save this country from these thieves, but its we the people that have to investigate and hold them accountable. don't count on them to do the job they were hired for or elected for. they are in it for themselves alone. Wake Up america! Soon we will have to decide if we will allow this to go on or if we will take back our country even if it means we have to do by force! wake Up America! Brown tipped his hand to Acorn so they could dump the docs and he's sweating bullets hoping that none clearly implicate him for what he is.
they're like children who find out one of their parents is cheating on the other. they just DO NOT WANT TO KNOW.
acorn cant even do crimes good, they should have torched the dumpster, what a bunch of dummies
Mr. Breitbart you are to be commended.
Listen citizens, ACORN is not just mocking our laws, they are stealing your liberty, your fredom and property. And they are stealing your childrens futures. We must demand satisfaction from our representatives. Call your representatives and your senators. Call your local newspapers, call your friends. SPEAK UP! This is your country!
they will do nothing it will be up to the voters in california to remove another corrupt AG running for governor, but I suspect the left will reward the corruption and push to vote the Cali AG as Gov. As for Holder we already know he is bias and corrupt.
I'd like to mail some news big wigs some laxatives and tell em to "get the leftist crap out of their system." Just for laughs. And really I might! Great idea. Course it's a problem of matching input and output.. They are surrounded by leftists, inundated by their own side's flawed thinking.. For them it's leftist garbage in and it's leftist garbage out.. No, it seems we are going to have to overwhelm them and put them out of business. Just like Eric Holder will not investigate Acorn — seriously — that is never going to happen. The very thought of it makes me laugh. This would be like one of Stalin's chief legal advisers suing Stalin's mom. Acorn is Obama's mom. LOL!! It sure is nice to pretend though.
I'm pretty sure this violates ACORN's civil liberties. Leftists have a perfect right to destroy evidence when being annoyed by knuckle-dragging conservatives who don't have Good Intentions (i.e., killing babies and disarming the public and generally making the world safe for orgies and Marxist dictators). In fact, I think we will probably live to see BABAC (Being Annoyed by a Conservative) made a felony hate crime.
All America ISN'T watching. I mentioned ACORN to a lib and she didn't even know what it was. There are ways to handle this.
Did they vote for Obama?
Do they still suffer from BDS ( BUSH DERANGEMENT SYNDROME ) ?
If the answer to one or both of those questions iks "yes", then they are NOT "smart" at all. And since they refuse to listen to you, apparently enjoy being willfully ignorant, then they aren't "educated" either.
It could have just been panic, dump everything, but maybe the food stamps applications were part of welfare fraud?
Would be interesting to x-reference the informaiton against the supposed real individuals status and location, maybe the people didnt even know they were being signed up?
Maybe they were just creating people out of thin air for welfare, voter, and credit fraud?
So many questions, even though this is a state organization seems like it's a federal issue considering all the possibles…
Oh sorry Eric "Bagman" Holder is charge, my bad, can't have the criminals investigating themselves, that would be a waste of money.
RedDirtReport.com and Oklahoma.watchdog.org have access to thousands of documents left by ACORN in an Oklahoma City office in the summer of 2008. These documents are chock full of damning evidence, at least 2 OK Reps. know about it and to my knowledge there are still no indictments. Rep. Mike Reynolds is still "carefully contemplating" his next step.
I wish he would come out swinging and save the contemplating for while the dust settles.
Much thanks.
Call me cynical, but at this point, expecting Brown or Holder to put the smack down on ACORN is about like expecting Goebbels and Goering to reign in Eric Roehm and his buddies.
Yeah, I know – a Godwin violation. Screw it.
Picture this: It's 9/12 in DC, I'm walking from the WWII Memorial with my 13 year old son.He wanted to March on Washington so we did. He wanted to see the Memorial, so we did. While there , we see Marine I come in, land and leave with POTUS running away. We are headi towards the Capitol diagonally, toward Pennsylvania Ave, and I said go this way… come to discover it's a no traffic street, running between the Mall and Pennsylvania Ave. A plaza between DoJ and FBI , One Block long. We can see people at the end, marching. Lots of them.__Lovely plaza, absolutely empty, no even a pigeon. All gates locked, not a sound. I stop and say to my son, look closely, this is where the Atty Gen who wants to investigate the CIA works. I said "Read the incription on the wall there about Justice. Mr. Holder should come out and write that down a thousand times until he gets it."__My son said, "well he should have to write it, but he'll never get it." 10 wks later, I wonder, does he get it yet?__Andrew, you're my hero, and I also believe the administration wants you dead. After all Justice is….
Go get 'em Andrew !
I'll take that bet. If these documents were anything worth a crap, they wouldn't be ranting about them, they'd be posting them. It's desperation.
Wish I'd known you were going to be on KFI, Andrew. If it was mentioned here at all, I missed it. I can't get them on air out here in the boonies, but I listen to them nearly every day streaming on the internet. I'd have caught your show, for certain. Let us know next time you'll be doing that, will ya? I'll bet their online numbers would skyrocket!
I think you (and lots of other patriots) are changing history, here.
Better get your money ready then. You have NO idea what's coming. Although you'll deny it when it does come to try and save face.
…….just as soon as they close Gitmo.
Wow – look who is in Memphis tonight !!!!

ACORN Founder Wade Rathke Will Speak at the U of M Nov. 23
yes they will do their jobs and find nothing wrong.
Mr Breitbart:
Americans of all stripes (though they all may not want to admit it) and Lady Liberty herself owe you and your compatriots an incalculable debt of gratitude.
In these truly dark and dangerous times, it is not just refreshing but downright awe inspiring to see you, James and Hannah stand in defiance of the Goliath-like ACORN, the Democrat leviathan of corruption. Your selfless acts of courage will no doubt inspire other freedom loving Davids to work harder to defeat the scourge of liberalism….. before it is too late.
Thank you!!
NO idea what's coming? Why weren't you saying a short few weeks ago that ACORN was finished with the Giles and O'Keefe tapes? They were done! Finished! Out of business! Bankrupt! Prosecuted and convicted! So where are we today? Smoke has cleared, dust has settled and oh look…ACORN still stands! lol
I have a very good idea of whats coming. More of the same of what we've had…a handful of people suffering from severe ACORN Derangement Syndrome pissed off because the rest of the country could care less. Sounds about right!
Acorn Derangement Syndrome? That's what you'd like to pretend it is. Defend these criminals all you want you fool. Meanwhile we will NEVER let the story die until justice is done. Never. Deal with it.
Or even a dumpster that wasn't behind their own building.
There's a story?
We must keep voting Democrat so they never investigate. Otherwise…look at the huge expense to build more prisons to hold all of these crooks!
That we continue to witness a failure of justice to act is astonishing, but not surprising; this is one of America's darkest hours thus far in the 21st century. How much more can we tolerate, before it all explodes? Thanks Andrew, and the team for your perseverance.
Yes! You being a moron!!
We are at ATTENTION, Sir. Awaiting your orders ! (dumpster scoopers and bags in hand)
They probably don't know how to use a shredder, or else they didn't want to take the time. And a bon fire would have
Talk about a stand up kinda guy…….. You deserve the Nobel Peace Prize!!… oh forget it, you do not have to do anything for that award… Thanks!!!
Throwing away fresh applications for food stamps? SS Numbers, credit card numbers, etc. Payments to political orgs and it just goes on and on. I think Breitbart's going to get somewhere with all of this. I think it's going to happen.
Oh Syntax_game– Now that you explain things so eloquently I can see that ACORN is actually wonderful. If they didn't cheat, then people with Good Intentions (i.e., killing babies, disarming citizens, making the world safe for orgies and Marxist dictators) could never be elected. OF COURSE the rest of the country could care less it. They don't KNOW about it because the media is in on the fix.
So Syntax_game, all minorities think exactly alike?
Spoliating evidence by destroying financial documents? Could it be someone's trying to cover up financial crimes like embezzlement?
That's just a wild guess; but why would any business owner be getting rid of stuff like this unless they wanted to obliterate a paper trail.
Well, aren't we lucky? Corrupt attorney general in Calif. Corrupt attorney general in the White House, Are there any honest people left in our government? Thanks to the clever PI who went to the trouble to nab these documents. And big thanks to Andrew! America thanks you!!!
I see OFA has sent a new troll in our direction. I guess Scott_z and JPA have had enough!
Watching? Are you sure?
Watching American Idol maybe, but watching the corruption in action? Not a chance, sadly.
the answer is NO…Holder and Brown will not pursue or investigate this, not now, not ever. Did you expect anything else? Comon, get real!
shhhhhh, don't encourage them.
I don't know, Syntax – maybe they want to destroy the Democrats for the corrupt, lying ass scumbags that they are? And the best way to do this is to first push for JUSTICE and if not – well, elections are coming up, jackasses.
[...] ACORN SCANDAL PART TWO: The Evidentiary Phase. [...]
Great job, Andrew. Thank you for all you are doing to help deliver our country from the corruption that is permeating our government and the agencies our taxes are funding. Thank God that reporters who want to bring this story forward have you as an advocate with a forum to bring out the truth. KC.
Maybe an insider whistleblower… Too little time to shred inhouse, if Jerry Brown's boys got them they would have shredded them at state offices. Maybe somebody called Roach so he could get them intact. I know, lots of if's and maybe's.
