This from the Alaska Report:
AlaskaReport has learned that at least 3 more ethics complaints will be filed against Sarah Palin in the near future. Of course her cronies at the Personnel Board will probably sweep them under the rug - but at least the crimes will have a light shined upon them before they do... Also - A long simmering embezzelment/IRS scandal is still being looked at by the feds. Stay tuned...
This is going to be a gigantic scandal folks.
There is a very good chance that the Governor's career will soon be resting on the bottom of the ocean right alongside the Titanic.

Ethics complaints wont cut it. I want the IRS/FBI to cuff the bitch.
ReplyDeleteBeing "looked at" is a far cry from being convicted.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what the knew ethics charges will be but I'll believe the fed stuff when I see it. I have promised myself not to fall for the hype anymore. So until they say "Palin indicted on embezzelment charges" I'm keeping that one under the rug for now.
Twill be interesting though to see the new ethics complaints.
I agree SJK ...
ReplyDeleteI want that bitch to go down ...
(God, I am so pedestrian when it comes to SP ... she so brings it out in me, alas.)
you do realize that the IRS stuff is the result of the random comments left by a nutjob on blogs right?
ReplyDeleteThis sounds ever so much like more of the comments we've been chatting about over at Palingates... an anon person left cryptic messages in a couple of places... PA's blog I think and also on the blog of the AK lawmaker who is pushing to keep all ethics complaints private until after they are resolved.
ReplyDeletePerhaps there is something to it (this refers for the embezzlement charge mostly).
sjk....thanks for the laff as I head out to work....LOL
ReplyDeleteWhy are liberals so fucking hateful?
ReplyDeletea three month teaser and the best you can up up with are ethics complaints and a rumor posted by a deranged nut about some IRS investigation?
ReplyDeletePalin/Sanford 2012 because two immorals equals the Right!
ReplyDeleteWonder if this has anything to do with the strange blog postings we have read on palingates
ReplyDeleteI hope you are right but I also have doubts. The way ethics complaints are handled their is ridiculous. How can you trust a board that just dismisses everything? Then there is no recourse. You even have a rep good ole Bob trying to stop the public from knowing about the bill. Why don't people use lawsuits??
ReplyDeleteCan you tell us if this is a separate ice berg from the one that has been listed on that other site? And your post is still coming.
Sounds like the person who commented at palingates and on Bob Lynn's blog (Press Release on side bar) (both posted around June 19-20) will be the person to take her down.
ReplyDeleteAnd palingates said that ACLU was taking care of Religiongate.
Wow. Blackberry withdrawal could be dangerous. Wonder what shoes she'll wear to match that orange jumpsuit?
Anonymous we are not all liberals dimwit.
ReplyDeleteSecond it is not hateful to want a crooked polician to go down. It's patriotic! Just because you think she is a goddess doesn't mean it's true.
Wow the Palinbots are out already??? They must be really worried.
Palin's actions and statements remind me of my (former) life with a verbally abusive spouse. Which is why I'd like to see her held accountable for her actions.
ReplyDeleteI wrote the anonymous IRS postings. There were supposed to be a joke! Lighten up, people.
ReplyDeleteI think we all hope Gryphen, that this IRS thing that you believe in so strongly, is not based on whomever is posting to a few blogs in strange, staccato ramblings, that Palin stole his fund somehow. Maybe there is something to it, but I hope that you have an entirely different source for this, or that it's unrelated to that poster. Give us more pretty please, where is this coming from?
ReplyDeleteteal, I knew a gal named Teal once upon a time...
ReplyDeletelong simmering embezzelment/IRS scandal ........
ReplyDeleteI wonder how long this has been simmering.
This is the "ICEBERG"!
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't get any better than Embezzlement/IRS!!!
The ethics complaints will probably be swept under the rug...or will they? When the light starts shinning on the queen and everyone else...who knows?
Anyway, this has made me very happy, Thanks Dennis for this wonderful news!
Maybe matching bracelets for GINO when she returns???
Does red naughty monkeys go with prison orange???
Oh boy they can spin Baby Burke all they want, but won't cover this one...another GoP'r down!!!!
(Going to get some popcorn) :)
Lying is hate. Wanting to purge the deceivers is a natural response. Conservatives need to get rid of her more then anyone. Liberals hope she stays in the game.
ReplyDeletePostergirl, looks like Gryphen got it from Dennis Zaki at Alaska Report. His site was the first to mention an "Iceberg" under the Rumor Central heading. Gryphen has said he's working on something totally different.
ReplyDeleteI'm excited for whatever news it is. The reality is, for all you trolls, that most of the posters here: dem's, repub's, progressive, liberals and conservatives, is that we smelled something wrong about Palin ever since she came out of the gate lying her a$$ off. And those lies are well documented and came out of her own mouth. Sadly, I recognize that our society has built up a level of resistance to BS, especially from our politicians, but there is only so much hypocrisy we can take. And it is wrong and unpatriotic to stick our heads in the sand. It's our civic duty to convey to our elected officials what we will and will not have. A public official is just that, "public," and offering your servant heart up to do the work of the people is great, but that comes with the people having the right to scrutinize your actions. It is and should remain a lovely and civilized system of checks and balances. Like I recently told my son, don't accuse someone of something unless you can back it up. I recall another long standing piece of advice that I love, and that the GOP clearly has not implemented is, "don't let your mouth write checks that your a$$ can't cash."
The ones who seem to get "rabid" and nasty are her supporters. If you believe in her so much, why wouldn't you be confident that she'll be vindicated if there is no wrong doing on her part? Where is your Faith? I know mine is confidently intact and that the truth, eventually, is always revealed. Embrace that, and perhaps you won't get your knickers in such a twist.
Susan in MD (cleaning the soapbox off for the next poster)
It doesn't matter who starts an investigation. Remember the cult in Texas, FLDS Prophet Warren Jeffs? Someone made a fake call to authorities. While investigating, more was discovered.
ReplyDeleteWhat matters is what the IRS finds. I doubt there has been only one complaint. Anyone who is helping to clear up a criminal organization needs protection. Don't start targeting someone that you might suspect.
Anonymous @ 6:52
ReplyDeleteFrom the comments made by the anonymous poster, years. The poster gave the amount of the trust fund from the year 1989.
Reading all the poster's comments, I sensed a lot of bottled up emotions pouring out between the lines.
--crystalwolf @ 7:11 -- might need to buy a case of popcorn!!! LOL!
Thanks, Susan!! Great post!
ReplyDeleteThe IRS doesn't require a complaint. Although I am sure there has been more than one. They can investigate if they believe there are TAX irregularities.
ReplyDeleteYou cannot bribe them.
You cannot threaten them.
If there is a case, it is possible no one will ever know if there is a fine paid. It depends upon how big the irregularities are.
I have no doubt that SP is guilty of something. And since she and Stapletongue have such big mouths, I have faith that SP will eventually get caught and pay the price.
I am 100% in Susan's corner. I am happy to wait and see her swing - on her own rope. I believe in the system.
The American voters let SP know in very loud terms that she is not an acceptable National candidate. We kicked her a*s. And if we have to, we'll do it again. Her unfavorables will kill her off. The Lower 48 will not tolerate this moronic cheap idiot to gain public national office.
So again it will come back to Alaska (unless she and TAHD are in Leavenworth for Tax Fraud) - Alaska must hold her responsible for her corrupt administration.
I will patiently wait and giggle when it happens. And it will happen. She is way too public with her mouth and her flounting of authority. Her smart a*s attitude has already doomed her.
As far as her trolls - she can have all of them. None of them has an I.Q. over -3 anyway. For myself, I don't need them in my life trying to tell me what to think or what is wrong/right.
I'm sure SP is pissed that Sanford has the front page ... that's why the Burke picture fiasco. What a dope she is.
Is this it?

anon 6:41, I could really relate what to what you wrote. There is something quite sinister about Sarah Palin and her narcissism and abuse of others that also sets me off and obviously many others.
ReplyDeleteShe is a very dangerous person because of her personality, her ambition, and her belief that she was chosen by God.
I really think ethics complaints though are a mistake.
As far as the mystery person writing, I feel sorry for him if it is true. People shouldn't call someone a nutjob simply because they say they were victimized by Sarah Palin. I really don't understand the Palinbots. They never recognize anything bad at all about Scarah and that is pretty strange......
People who don't do anything wrong have nothing to worry about.
ReplyDeleteWhy is Sarah Palin and her gang of Palin-bots so defensive all the time?
Something is rotten in Alaska.
OT, but Gryphen, you HAVE to see Blue Gal's Video Mashup on Levi trying to get a date with Sasha Obama in the year 2015. It is hysterical!!!

Anonymous 6:08 asked "why are liberals so fucking hateful?
ReplyDeleteAnd why are you Palin Trolls so bat shit crazy?!
And mama always told me that you should only hate what is evil and PALIN IS EVIL! You don't see it because you are a Lemming.
Now, go back under your Troll Bridge.
I just read the stuff from Palingates and the Bob Lynn site…
ReplyDeleteI’d be real careful about latching on to the “claims” of the anon poster. There are some real odd phrases in those rants: net worth, that harvard is watching Palin, “federal internal investigation,” etc. A real discordant rant.
That being said... there are some very valid IRS issues related to Palin. Oh, and the IRS does not launch investigations simply based on what is posted on blogs. They have a complaint/drop-a-dime presence on the web as well as an 1-800 number. If there is an investigation, it because complaints were received and things are being looked into. Where it goes from there only the IRS knows for certain. But rest assured that politics will NOT be a consideration if they decide the complaint(s) are substantiated to the point of requiring an enforcement action. Just ask Willy Nelson how that goes.

Anon. at 9:11 am, I've been looking at that real estate transaction. In 1994, Sarah and Todd purchased property from Paul and Sherry Marchille. The Palins granted a deed of trust (which secured a $140,000.00 mortgage on property) to Charles and Sally Heath, the Raymond Carter and Kristine Carter Trust, and Amy Carter.
ReplyDeleteIn 1996, the Carter Trust and Amy Carter assigned their interest in the deed of trust to Charles Heath. (this means the Carters could no longer foreclose on the deed of trust if the Palins failed to pay the mortgage)
So then, only Charles and Sally Heath held the mortgage on the property. (At that point the Heaths could "forgive" the mortgage and let the Palins off the hook from paying the mortgage if they wanted to; I have no idea if they actually did)
Without viewing the Assignment, it isn't possible to determine if the Heaths paid any consideration ($$$) for the assignment.
On Sept. 23, 2002, the Palins sold the land to Henry Nosek. On Sept. 23, 2002, Todd granted Sarah a power of attorney to sign the documents on his behalf.
Also on Sept. 23, 2002, the Wasilla City Council granted a Shoreline Setback Exemption on the property on which the Palins current home is located.
[So, could the property obtained in 1994 be the Palins' home at that time? Which was conveyed once the Palins got an exception to shoreline setback requirements ('cause once they got the exception, they knew they could build their current house right next to the lake?)]
This information is all of public record:

I h ope this is not circular blog posting coming full circle i.e. Gryphen do you have a source other than other blogs and postings?
ReplyDeleteI believe the Bob Lynn blog poster definitely has info on history of Palin's not open to main stream media. I feel this person has been wronged and deeply hurt BUT I DO NOT KNOW HOW MUCH PROOF THERE IS for any kind of complaint, either Personnel Board or Federal complaint.
I do NOT "feel" this person is ready to file their complaint at this point.
If the "iceberg" is just more ethics complaints that the personnel board can shoot down then I personally do NOT consider that an "iceberg" and if it is, you may have just set yourself up for more complaints of "anticlimatic" frustration.
I think she is guilty of a lot, but don't know if anyone at this point has enough proof to warrent "iceberg" labeling.
We only make ourselves look bad when we get excited and then nothing of lasting importance happens.
Example: the list of shocking things Palin has done is so long now that many are forgotten and left out when discussing her. She has succeeded in making her shocking behavior the norm. Our limp dick legilators are responsible for her still being in office after they found her guility and declined to even "censure" her cause, "what good would it do except make her mad at us and therefore more difficult to work with.
Looks like she was already too made to work well with them and they just further "bent over" for her and told her to go for it.
I have no respect for even one of our legislators, especially some who call themselves antiPalin progressives.
Patti: Great explanation to anonymous troll re: liberals.
ReplyDeletenilaP trolls are quite simply THE stupidest carbon life forms wandering! But that's ok. They don't affect us.
We aren't hateful - they are simply conservative hypocrites.
Yes we detest SP - she's a moronic fool. I don't hate her - she isn't worth the energy it would take to even think about her. Her silly craziness makes for lots of laughs for us.
I have NO idea if there is an iceberg coming her way. And for the trolls, the IRS is not an agency to play games with. If they find she has cheated on her taxes, she is toast.
RE: the picture of her and Burke. What baby? It's a picture of Eddie Burke. How stupid are all of you.
Sorry ... forgot.
Patti - please don't defame lemmings. They are quite adorable little animals. The nilaP sllort are stupid by choice.
Okay this post has NOTHING to do with comments made on other blogs.
ReplyDeleteI have known about this for about two months now, though admittedly I did not have all of the details because Dennis had promised not to talk about it.
But be aware that Dennis is VERY careful and does not go off half cocked EVER! If he says this thing is coming, you can bet the bank on the fact that it is definitely on its way.
The commenter that everybody keeps referring to is unknown by me and I have no idea if he is to be trusted, or whether his information is the same as the information that Dennis had access to.
But this "iceberg" is real and it is huge. And it is NOT the new ethics complaints.
Ok cowboy, I trust you.
ReplyDeleteonejrkitty
Oh, Gryphen, I think I love you. Thank you for keeping us as in the loop as you can. Wish I had patience....but I am really going to enjoy watching all this!
ReplyDeletethanks again!
LisanTx @ 2:40 - I posted this response on mudflats but appears pertinent to your comment as well:
ReplyDelete164 Martha Says: June 25th, 2009 at 3:59 PM
It appears that the Palins borrowed the money from a living trust, that her parents have majority control of AND that was created approximatley 2 weeks before they borrowed the money.
This “iceberg” threat is about the Palins and Heaths embezzling from with a trust fund that was federally guaranteed. That the federal government agencies are looking (obligated to) into this wrong doing, because of the guarantee. And that the IRS is involved in this too.
____________
That part I got. Private transaction wherein Palin “borrowed” money. Did Palin not pay back the borrowed money? I don’t see embezzlement under the scenario wherein Palin borrowed money (presumably it’s a loan extended by the Carter’s).
I can see where the IRS might have raised an eyebrow if Palin did not pay back the money. Or if they paid no interest on the “borrowed” money (which the IRS views as an interest-free loan).
If the money was not paid back, and the value of the “borrowed” money never declared on a 1040, then there’s a problem as the IRS tends to view these types of transactions as involving undeclared income. Oops. Still gotta pay taxes on undeclared income!
If no interest was paid on the “borrowed” money, then there’s also a problem here as the IRS tends to view the unpaid interest on no-interest loans as… income. If that income was not included on the 1040, then there’s yet another instance of undeclared income. Still gotta pay taxes on undeclared income!
But that’s all conjecture as we do not know the nature or terms of the transaction(s) that you listed. Did the Carter’s actually loan money to Palin? Did the Carter’s expect to be paid a certain amount of interest? If there was interest, did the Carter’s declare that on their 1040? Did the Carter’s provide the appropriate IRS 1099 interest form to Palin? Has any of this shown up on tax returns released by Palin?
There are other pertinent questions, but those are where we ought to start.
Oh, and here’s a kicker… 1994? Are any claims by any of the parties (Palin, Carter, IRS?) barred by applicable statute of limitations? Has the bell tolled on any possible enforcement action?
I went to Alaska Standard and noticed that the post about the 3 new ethics complaints and the IRS scandal is not listed on their page anymore. Does anyone know why?
ReplyDelete@8:46 p.m., maybe because you didn't go to alaskareport.com?
ReplyDeleteDennis is out of town in Emmonak, probably someone else is minding the website for him.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry!
Mudflats had the story also yesterday, and here!
What Gryphen says about Dennis is absolutely true.
Chill :)
Go out and buy a popcorn maker! And lots of popcorn.
run for Cho: You do not have to declare borrowed money anywhere. Borrowed money is not income. It is something you are required to pay back unless the loan is forgiven by the person making the loan. And, only the person making the loan has a right to demand payment. The Feds or no one else has any control over a loan unless the Feds made the loan. A Federally insured loan does not mean that they have any say in the loan. It only means in the event some one doesn't pay it back the Feds could help you get the money back. But, that is a long difficult process. The Republican vetted Palin her entire family on all finacial matters and this was not the first candidate they ever did this with. I do believe they probably would have caught something like this. In fact the vetter was with the Reagan Admin. and I believe they have seen it all and they know every place to look. It took them months to vet the potential V. Pres. candidates. 20 Lawyers were involved. Also, Obama sent 30 lawyers to AK. looking for dirt. Now you going to tell me 50 trained lawyers in this type of thing missed something. Seems unlikely to me.
ReplyDeleteJUJU:"Also, Obama sent 30 lawyers to AK. looking for dirt. Now you going to tell me 50 trained lawyers in this type of thing missed something. Seems unlikely to me.
ReplyDeleteAgain you LIE! Obama didn't send lawyers to Alaska! After everyone found out how she Wasn't Vetted every news agency in the country sent reporters to AK that was now being run by operatives of the RNC/McCain goons. Anyone who tried to publish the truth was threaten by a lawsuit. Its bullshit that Obama sent anyone to AK! Drink some more kool-aid JuJu, I see you've been quit vocal today you might must of had a lot of kool-aid today, have s'more!
@juju, you don't understand simple truths of the human condition, such as irony, satire, parody and comedy--so I'm sure that the truth about finances elude you and your group as well.
ReplyDeleteObama never sent 30 lawyers to AK. Where do you all come up with such fiction? Heck, McCain never sent that many lawyers either. They sent about 4. And that was your own party!
No one vetted Palin. And no one at the nat'l level cares about her now, except as a joke or tabloid allusion. And guess who is to thank for that? YOU GUYS. Pat yourselves on the back. You helped to ruin Palin's image. Big time.
Juju is a prime example of an uneducated idiot. There is no other way to say it.
ReplyDeleteShe is an example of someone who gets all of her news (and believes it) from Hannity and Limbaugh. It's frightening that there are stupid people like this in our great country.
Juju did you graduate from high school?
Am I allowed to guess what the "embezzlement" thingy is? I guess it's "Dairygate!" Wonder if I'm right...
ReplyDeleteshes all ready checking out of the gov. office...2012 pres run...gone also...sanity returns to alaska
ReplyDeleteShe just resigned !!!!!
ReplyDeleteDing Dong the witch is dead !!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHer resignation should not put an end to the ethics charges.
ReplyDeleteAlaskans may have elected Palin solely for her talent of Being Pretty, but I'll forgive them. They've suffered enough as America's laughingstock; they deserve a real governor, one with some sort of a work ethic in place of that sense of entitlement.
ReplyDeleteMax Blumental reports on The Daily Beast that Sarah Palin may have quit her job today because she was trying to avert a major, yet-to-be-disclosed corruption scandal. The gist of the rumor is that an Alaska building company called Spenard Building Supplies (SBS) was awarded a contract by Palin to build a hockey arena in Wasilla, AK, and in return, SBS helped construct Palin’s home:
