BREAKING: Rep. Emanuel Cleaver Earmarks $48 BILLION to Pal Who Runs Child Day Care Center From Home With His Wife
by Jim HoftEarlier today it was reported that far left Representative Emanuel Cleaver (D-MO) proposed a $48 billion earmark to redistribute taxpayer money to the inner city.
It was the Mother of All Earmarks…
Liberal Rep. Emanuel Cleaver proposed a whopping $48 BILLION EARMARK that would redistribute wealth to the inner cities and gift money to the poor and thereby produce a much larger consumer class to buy the goods and services produced in this country.
Rep. Cleaver will lead the Congressional Black Caucus next year. (CBC Blog)
Now get this…
The $48 billion would go to Cleaver’s friend, a gentleman named Lamar Mickens, president of the not-for-profit Quality Day Campus who runs the organization out of his Kansas City home.
The Southeast Missourian reported:
Currently Mickens operates this massive proposal out of his home but with Cleaver’s help, this earmark could put him on the road to success.
Cleaver provides a link to a Mickens “manifesto” where a lengthy agenda is outlined — but again with no specifics other than the rich should provide money to the poor so that the poor will have more money to spend.
There’s more…
Lamar Mickens is the President and the Treasurer of Quality Day Campus, Inc.
His wife Cynthia is the Vice President of Quality Day Campus, Inc.
It says so on their handwritten Annual Report!
And get this… It’s classified as a child day care center that he runs out of his home!
This is UNBELIEVABLE!
Rep. Cleaver is asking for $48 billion to donate to his friend’s shady day care center that is run out of a Kansas City home?
Rep. Cleaver has some explaining to do!

Both parties should be immediately investigated, tried and jailed. What a friggin scam !
Is a life sentence too short?
The CBC is a national embarrassment. It surprises me how their stupidity and child-like antics are chronically overlooked by the politically correct mainstream media.
I guess this is what Obama had in mind when he said, "Spread the wealth".
Merry Christmas! or Quanza(spelling)!
Is this the same pathetic, leftist, congressional clown that claimed he was spit on by the TP? SPIT!
Unbelievable, i bet he gets it to, damn crooked Democrats………….
You just can't make this stuff up.
And NO!, it isn't funny.
Was this dolt kicked out Nov 2 or do we have to see him after the new blood is sworn in Jan?
Bastard needs to go to jail. This is corruption in the works.Who else agreed to allow this to be put in the bill. We should be told so they never get elected again.
Taking tax dollars and give it to people so they can spend it to improve the economy. What kind of logic is this? What about the poor people who had their income taxed to allow this to happen? There is smoke coming from ears and my head just exploded.
We can' be out of money because the government still has checks!!!!
Race based organizations are always embarrassments to everyone who isn't racist. To those who are, well, they love them and champion those groups.
Yes, it's the same bozo. He's an embarrassment to Kansas City.
What's the difference between this guy and the guys who ripped off the Bellagio? Oh, that's right… the guys at the Bellagio were more honest about what they do.
I wanna be a congressman.
He doesn't have any explaining to do. His constituents do. Why do they keep voting in this baffoon. He is what he is. He is absolutely corrupt with no morals or ethics and has been from the start. We should stop the bill but there is little that needs to be explained. This is the yet another perfect example of the principles practiced by the national socialist democrat party. He embodies all that his party stands for and his actions represent the core values and principles of his party. No explaining necessary. It would be like asking water not to be wet for you to ask him not to be crooked.
"Is a life sentence too short?"
No. It's too kind.
"Rep. Cleaver will lead the Congressional Black Caucus next year."
I take that to mean, he'll still be around.
Only 48 billion? Chump change! Why not 48 bazillion? Or 120 jillion?
Mickens can dole it all out to the poor to they can jump start the economy by buying cars, computers, TVs and stereos manfactured in China and Japan, all while they collect unemployment checks for jobs they never had. Better yet, just tell the Fed to leave the printing presses running day and night, and pretty soon we'll all be rich!
These people don't want to "distribute" wealth; they want to destroy it. They want to entire system to collapse. That is the ultimate goal. They know they cannot succeed in a fair and open society, so they will burn it down instead.
The 83 Percenters strike again!
"Taking tax dollars and give it to people so they can spend it to improve the economy. What kind of logic is this?"
pelosi logic. Remember? "Unemployment checks stimulate the economy."
Welcome to the next Hitler rise.
"just tell the Fed to leave the printing presses running day and night"
Why not cut out the middle man?
Just send the printing presses to the inner cities.
You are right on one thing, No explaining needed! We know. There is no way to put lipstick on this pig.
Turn Allen West loose on them!
How about removing the teething ring and let people pull themselves out of the hole they dug for themselves. And with that finger raised to the wind all he needs is a turbin. He's a criminal who belongs in jail for inciting division with his racist lies.
Don't keep giving fish. Sell fishing pole cheap. Duh.
This keeps getting better and better. . . . . .
This just can't continue to happen. Please tell me that he wasn't up for election this last go round in November.
You nailed it… That would take some brains in Washington, and understanding.
No shock here. They are just more open about their thievery now. Why not? I'm sure Arianna thinks this is a wonderful idea.
Just another form of vile reparations like Pigford. This man is delusional and if this damn bill goes through, they will try anything in the next 2 years. This is beyond corruption.
They all think they should live in palaces like Mugabe and we have to pay for it. Meanwhile there are people who cannot even afford Christmas this year because they lost their jobs and their homes.
How much does Cleaver have earmarked for Cleaver?
well, allen west says he will join the cbc, and since the republicans are going to run the house, he should chair the cbc, then disband the caucas, explaining that most every member of the cbc has non black constituents, and as such, they do not represent thier voters.
Charlie the Rang HO. Mad Maxine Watters. John Commie Conyers and his inmate wife and felon son. Jesse Jackass Jr and trying to bribe Blago for Zeros old senate seat. And now Im No Man at all Meat Cleaver. I guess that must be what having a lifetime job due to "protec ted" districts does for them. They are black and "victims" of evil white conservative Inc, so they are entitled to a little(or A LOT) of corruption, you see just getting even with "the man".
I dont think excedrin has enough medicine to help Meat Cleaver once Col West got done with him.
if this passes, i'm going to start a business in the inner city as a crack cocaine distributor and possibly sell 40 oz. bottles of malt liquor.
i need money, too.
wow, this is a great idea, my congressman is judy biggert. hey judy, i can turn straw into gold, for the sum of 24 billion, i will try to reproduce the test that worked to do this. now, i won't ask for 48 billion, since i am not that greedy, and 24 billion would serve me for my purposes. if my program ever works, and i would think not, i will give any gold produced to inner city charities. and if my program does not work, congress has blown far larger sums of money on things more foolish than this. all i would need to do is point to clever's earmark.
The good news is it's only $48 billion U.S. which is about 24 cents Canadian!
why read The Onion, when Breitbart has articles like this on here every day?
no. you cannot make this up. unbelievable.
Washington, DC: "Lookit us, we are soo nice, giving lotsa fish. Where're the fish going? Er… to the NEEDY. Yes, to the needy! Trust us. We're taking care of everyone."
Actually Skeeve, its his CAREER that needs to be killed, but wont. His voters(65-70% minority district) will believe the victimhood line and the slimestink media wont dare to criticize a black crook.
We need the Vince Flynn's book Term Limits to become a reality! There have to be a few former special forces members who could stand up for the American people and put a little fear in these criminals in our government!
MS-the guy at the Bellagio will actually face justice. This scum will be rewarded for his injustice.
Remember the day when 60 Minutes would have a reporter at 3943 Paseo Blvd, Kansas City, MO TOMORROW MORNING to ask questions regarding why 48 BILLION DOLLARS was being earmarked for this "Day Care Center"???????????? If I don't see a FoxNews reporter there tomorrow, I am going to give them HELL and I kindly suggest you readers do the same, please. This sh*t has got to STOP.
Even though they were disgusting Socialists I am starting to sympathize with the French Revolutionaries' love of guillotines.
Redistro wealth to Inner cities? SO instead of Obama money it's Cleaver money…amazing…
Haven't democrats done enough to destroy Black America? They've virtually enslaved the inner city people with welfare, dependency, hopelessness and a sense of entitlement.
Come to think of this -this isnt an earmark. This is like PIGFORD=BAC K DOOR REPERATIONS.
Kill this! Kill it! KIIIIIIILLLL IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!! Enough with the bogus economics that say that spending money we don't have will effect durable economic benefits! All it does is reward failure, foster dependence, and impoverish our future! You want more of something, subsidize it. Send this money to Cleaver's buddy, and guess what, he will EXPAND poverty in the inner city, not diminish it! He will EXPAND his afro-centric bigotry, not diminish it! He will EXPAND the pork-funded network of quasi-governmental social workers who enable poverty and enrich themselves off of the stream of wealth we so blindly direct through them. He will EXPAND the Democrat voting base! KILL THIS EFFORT NOW!
There are crack dealers with better fiscal sense then most of the rats in Congress. At least they understand the laws of supply-and-demand, and that all the money we waste on government assistance programs and teacher's unions don't add up to a hill of beans when it comes to getting a useful education or competing in the lawful job market.
48 Billion makes sense if you consider how hard it is to divide uneven numbers. That would be 24 billion for Cleaver and 24 billion for his friend. Simple, no math skills required.
SARC
I've always been partial to good ole fashioned TAR AND FEATHERING for these bastards. The rape of this country is well underway. With friends like Collins. Voinovich, Snowe, Brown (fraud from Taxachusetts), McCain, and other RINOS (apologies to rhinos) it's hard to tell our enemies from our "friends." Apparently, the message of the last election was missed by these thieves. They are heading full-throttle with their redistribution plans and no one appears to care.
Agreed, Sterwartsmall. We've been paying reparations for years in the form of welfare, food stamps, affirmative action, and a fawning, solicitous attitude toward racist black organizations like the NAACP. The debt was paid long ago.
The other day I said nothing the Democrats in Congress would surprise me anymore. It appears I was wrong.
$48,000,000,000.00 to somebody that works out of there HOUSE ! Put them against the wall and shoot every one of them, and the people getting the money Too….
Wow…this is a troll free comment thread. I wonder why?
3 hots and a cot?
just shoot em
screw quanza
This would be legalized theft in the most egregious terms.
This is highly racist. What about the little white children in the burbs? Don't they get help or is this only for those that want to remain in the inner cities living off the system? I though these things were supposed to be a hand up not a "Hand out".
The problem is there is no one above the govt to stop this. Their all corrupt in one way or another. The people are supposed to have the right to stop it by voting, but by the time the votes are in, the left has already gotten their way! There will come a time when taxpayers will move out of this country because NO ONE wants to work to improve their life to have all stolen from them to redistribute. Then America will be like Haiti or some other poor country. Power corrupts everyone and until we figure out a way to take the power away from Washington, WE ARE ALL DOOMED!
The History Channel just had on a piece about Hitler and how he snaked his way to the top. It was like Deja Vu – the 08 campaign….. A major difference is that Obama actually won the election, where Hitler lost.
Many have treated this tax 'compromise' as a done deal. I have not taken that stance. I do view it as a hail marry pass, by both establishment parties, but I think it is going to fail. I hope I am right about that.
Which is why we must dump "legal" and embrace "lawful".
So few understand the difference.
What – Pigford wasn't big enough reparations?
Can we rerun the scene where he claims to be spit on? Only this time may I be the "lead spit guy"! Well, he just spit on all of America, so time to spit back!!! I am so turned off with our government. Call me a dam* p!ssed off son-of-a-B!*CH!!!
As the Obama cash cow's milk goes dry, all but the diehards will seek their milk from other masters.
~
They got the message, which is exactly why they are doing this.
It's called a "last ditch" effort.
True… but I was hoping a typical troll would say "It is only 48 Billion" followed by something about Haliburton and Cheney/Bush. I miss the old days.
You people are all racists. You want to deny poor inner city children of quality day care.
How do you live with yourselves?
sarc/
What's really sad is that it will pass,you'll soon see a Rolls Royce parked out front of Lamar's crib.
I can't believe Lt. Col Allen west is going to join the CBC. I get it that having him in the CBC is like a giant middle finger to the libtards, but still would have rather seen him give a giant middle finger to the CBC instead.
Hey Google that address and look at the Corporate address of this scam. Almost as swanky as
Acorns old headquarters in New Orleans.They do save on office space rents. And yeah it's the
Spit Wad.
I wanna be a congressman's friend.
Here is a quote of a quote that I just do not get (or it is the UNDERSTATEMENT of the CENTURY, if not millenium!!)
"Currently Mickens operates this massive proposal out of his home but with Cleaver’s help, this earmark could put him on the road to success."
….Could put him on the road to success??? ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? IF, you earn just 0.5% interest (short term interest in the form of T-Bills), you can earn $240 MILLION per year. DOING NOTHING!!!! If that is not success, what is??
Seriously. I have started, and struggled, with multiple businesses, and am always looking to make things better. Mr. Cleaver, you can put me on the road to success with, say, $10 Million. AND I will NEVER ask for any more!!!
And I'm guessing everyone knows that the congressional black congress it the club
for black socialist and communists in our government?
Probably about 1/2 of that 48 billion and the rest goes into the democrat coffers.
That and it's all the Joooooosss fault…….
Grand theft is a felony. This should be a federal felony exempt from presidential pardon.
First, someone needs to shutdown and arrest the dumb ass who is using a residence as a business location to babysit children. AGAINST THE DAMN LAW. Secondly, Rep. Cleaver and his klan can kiss my big fat white ass thinking they are going to obtain $48B from the taxpayers just to give away to the so-called poor, who most receive government benefits that add up more than I was making from working a real job. I can't believe what I'm reading. This is insanity.
48,000,000,000 to a buddy of a Congressman? My respect for the CBC (never all that high) just hit a new low. The fact most blacks only vote for one party in a two party system has resulted in many outrages and will continue to do so until more of us give the Republicans a chance.
So why do we keep our congress employees in power after they have been fired?
Can you imagine a private sector business hiring a replacement employee in early November, then telling the old employee they will be replaced in early January but they can do whatever they want at work for the next 2 months?
Is it just me, or does this sound like there may be some risk involved?
OMG where does Darrell Issa begin? This is race warfare and no one has the "gut's" to call this out! What are we really afraid of? I for one, just say, SAY-IT and SHOUT-IT FROM THE ROOF TOP'S! Take all the doc's and let's start a "class action lawsuit" against every damn one of them, starting with the Dept. of Justice– Eric Holder. Stating that the Dept. of Justice is committing fraud for illegal Reparation's and backdoor dealing's thru the new stimulus. Kill this Bill !!! This is where the money for PIGFORD is coming from–! This Bill needs to be stopped now! Cricket's in the echo chamber!
Let's not forget the members of CBC that gave money to their family and friends for college tuition? They DID NOT KNOW that they SHOULD NOT do this! Talk about ignorant!
The first Tea Party was in protest to the taxes imposed on the people from the government in England…the same story applies today! WE THE PEOPLE are sick of being taxed for EVERYTHING we do! Enough already! The government is supposed to protect and serve, NOT TAKE and dictate!!!
We will NOT go silently into tyranny!! We WILL fight!!

These are some of the ones we need to torment…
Republicans leaning toward supporting the Omnibus pork fest as reported by several news outlets: (Remind these Republicans the omnibus includes $1.25 billion to start implementing Obamacare and that if they voted against Obamacare, they cannot in good faith vote for the omnibus)

Why is it that minorities, the MSM and white guild ridden Dems love to chirp about the need to lessen the presence of 'old, white men' in Congress?
Why is no one fuming about, or demanding that the number of 'corrupt blacks' in Congress is reduced?
If we are going to make an effort to send 'old white men' out to pasture, why aren't we sending 'corrupt blacks' to jail?
I wonder.
Take Action!!!
I just sent an e-mail to my Congressman (Joe Pitts) demanding ethics or criminal action be taken against Congressman Cleaver if there is even an ounce of truth to this article. I sent him the link to this article and highlighted that this is the obvious corruption that needs to end in Washington.
Do I expect anything to happen? Not really… but if we all e-mail or call our Congressmen, it may get attention!
Time to bring back that grand old tradition of Tar and Feathering crooks like Cleaver!
The CBC is a racist criminal organization.
Jeeze louise, they're not even trying to sound sane anymore.
Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished, but he that gathereth by labor shall increase.
I don't want to be a congressman…..I want to be the "friend" of the congressman!
LMAO! I could partner with you. We wouldn't have to stop with just straw. We could even attempt to produce it out of thin air!
We need to be careful here because if Cleaver doesn't get his way he'll have his friends at the Kansas city star stir up the minority population and get them to riot,he did it once already after the spitting lie,guarantee he'll do it again.
She also said 400,000 jobs would be created almost instantly as soon as the Healthcare Bill was signed into law. Where are they? Dems are liars, pure and simple.
Our government is so corrupt and it's our own fault because WE TOLERATE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This sob should be tarred and feathered. Heard Walter Williams yesterday saying the founders would be aghast at the state of our government and even more displeased with the public for allowing it to happen. Keep sending the same human waste back to Washington and just stop bitching about what happens. I'm done.
White people don't count, hologram. Didn't you know that? All we do is oppress people, so even the disadvantaged among us (there are more poor white people thank black), well, they're just SOL. I mean, after all, you really can judge a man by the color of his skin, you know, so you really don't have to look at the content of his character. 'Cause we discovered that character doesn't matter back in the 90's when putting a stain on an intern's blue dress was just a private snafu, not an issue of character, although his skin color was the wrong color for being forgiven, so, hmmm, oh yeah, he pandered to the people who were the right color, so forgiveness extended to him to, but not to the poor white people who compete for the goodies with the black inner city folks. SCREW THEM! (That's the liberal mind at work for you. Seem accurate?)
I think you're missing the point here. Sure they'd love to get the money but that's not the intent of this earmark. Read around on this board. What has the sheer mention of this earmark done to race relations? This is an intentional attempt to further broaden the race relation breach.
The 80s saw a massive healing of race relations in America. That was the beginning of the end of the race baiters.
Think about it, who is going to benefits from this? Even if it was morally right, the poor in the inner city will NEVER see a dime of that money. The hucksters, baiters, and race frauds are the only group that will benefit by reaping the windfall of stolen public money. In turn they'll stoke the race fires against white America because of the outcry from the country for the waste of taxpayer money which we had to borrow.
Is this a surprise? The guy lives practically on the border of his own district, so as to get as far away from the inner-city KC part of it as he can, yet he continues to advocate the same policies that have made it the basketcase it is. Chutzpah and hypocrisy is what he does.
if anybody on capitol hill is dumb enough to pay me 24 billion bucks, i won't need partners, but i could hire lots of employees. i could start with a committee to discus ways to make gold from straw, and a lab to perform tests on the committee's work, and a lobbyist to check back with the congressman still in office after voting for my gold brick program.
Not to worry, SirP. The money isn't REALLY going to the so-called poor or creepy "baby-sitters". It's going to The Obama's reelection. Isn't it just great that we are donating to it? Progressives have mastered the fine art of laundering tax-payer money. #@@!@##@!!!@#
Federal Prison could be the best place for him….. seeing how upset the Americans who live in the United States are with the Anti-Americans in Washington D.C.
Between crap like this, or the debate about whether stealing Top Secret information from the government and possessing it and distributing it may be illegal, I really think I’m living in a alternative universe. I’m hunkering down, staying low, loading up and getting ready. Anyone wonder why I haven’t been my overly verbose self lately?
It wasn't too long ago they were satisfied with stealing thousands, now they ask for billions.
Throw his arse in jail, look in his freezer, does he have cash stashed in there like "cold cash" Jefferson?
