Rahm Emanuel Evading Property Tax On Home By Declaring Himself A Charity?
Wow. When I’m wrong I’m the first eventual one to admit it, so I’ll go ahead and say it, “I was wrong.” Yes, I doubted that Obama could bring about the “change” I needed to not have to worry about paying bills anymore like Peggy The Moocher told us.
Well Barack Obama has put my money where his Cabinet is with the news that his newly minted Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, has possibly been evading taxes on his home for years. How could he do it? Easy! He created a sketchy charity in 2002, named it after him and his wife, set its address as his personal residence, and voila, taxes could be gone:
According to the Cook County Assessor’s website, the Chicago home of four-term Democrat Congressman and likely new White House Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, doesn’t exist. While the address of 4228 North Hermitage is listed as Emanuel’s residence on the Illinois State Board of Elections’ website, there seems to be no public record of Emanuel ever paying property taxes on this home…
Why would 4228 North Hermitage property owners Rahm Emanuel and wife Amy Rule not pay property taxes?
One reason could be because Emanuel and Rule declared their 4228 North Hermitage home as the office location for their non-profit foundation appropriately called the “Rahm Emanuel and Amy Rule Charitable Foundation”. As a non-profit headquarters, they may consider their home as exempt from paying taxes.
Skeptical? You shouldn’t be! After six years, the “Rahm Emanuel and Amy Rule Charitable Foundation” has had only two donors. Can you guess who?
The Rahm Emanuel and Amy Rule Charitable Trust was formed in 2002, when the Chicago lawmaker was first elected. The former Clinton White House aide and his wife, Amy Rule, are its only donors.
USA Today has a great article about Rahm and other Dems, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who are illegally operating charities under their own names while failing to report that information.
Congratulations, America, you’ve just elected another corrupt politician who surrounds himself with corrupt supporters. “Yes we can” steal from the government and those we represent!

That’s perfect. Clinton who put the pressure on Fannie and Rahm who was the point man to do the same at Freddie.
Tax avoidance, no wonder my real estate taxes are so high. I pay taxes in Cook county, maybe I can do the same.

Hey Matt…
You need to do some more “admitting you were wrong”.
I replied to your other post on the same topic – Rahm Emanuel pays his property taxes. In fact, he pays about double what his neighbors pay.

The Illinois Review post you cited was based on the author’s misunderstanding of tax records, pure and simple. When her errors were pointed out to her, she kept deleting the comments with corrected info. She has since deleted the posts altogether.

OK So you appear to be going after the democRATS, and that is good. Where where you when the republiCRIMINALS were incharge? The Bush admin was certainly not fiscally conservative. Legislation passed over the last 8 year has dismantled the constitution.
I am sick of hearing from the talking heads who pretend there is a two party system. Criminals have hijacked the leadership of both parties. They destroying America in every way possible so they can steal from the American citizen and prevent anyone from following them.
People are waking up. The revolution is coming. You have the choice to come down on the side of freedom and self determination or to serve the global crime syndicate. Notice has been served.

Hey Rob_N…
You need to do some “head shaking” yourself.
It’s only been a couple of months since your post and again there is fire in the media about Rahm the Cruel who apparently didn’t pay taxes in another town. Another place where you can’t save him. That most likely means you were fooled the first time too pumpkin.
Criminals have indeed hijacked your government and mine. There are no real party’s except the Illuminati Globalists who fund ALL other political parties. Another false flag attack is on the horizon and we need to prevent this scum from taking over completely.
