Gregory Meeks' Bio and/or Biography – Do you know this HOUSE NEGRO?
In our pursuit of the OVERTHROW of the United States’ DESPOTISM Government Regime, we intend to seek the PROSECUTION of these House Negroes (i.e. some of which are LAWYERS). Please NOTE “HOW Many” were EDUCATED under WHITE INSTITUTIONS!
While the AGE REQUIREMENT is 25 Years Old to serve as a United States SENATOR and/or REPRESENTATIVE, as of 2017, the AGE RANGE for the House Negroes Serving is BETWEEN 40 – 88 Years Old!
This is SIGNIFICANT because the House Negroes Placed in the United States Congress are those who GREW UP in the Heart of the CIVIL RIGHTS Movement and EXPERIENCED the BRUTAL Murders/Killings of Civil Rights Leaders as Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. Therefore, MAKING them EASY PREY to be CONTROLLED by THREATS and FEAR on their Lives and their Family Members MADE by WHITE Jews/Zionists and WHITE Supremacists!
Help BRING these HOUSE NEGROES to JUSTICE for the ROLES they have PLAYED in the TERRORIST/RACIST/DISCRIMINATORY Practices of the United States’ DESPOTISM Government Regime!
This House Negro had a DUTY and OBLIGATION to NOTIFY the Public/World of the Illegal/Unlawful Occupation of the DESPOT presently CONTROLLING and RUNNING the United States’ DESPOTISM Government Regime!
Moreover, the THREATS made (if any) by WHITE Jews/Zionists and WHITE Supremacists AGAINST them and/or their Family Members, Friends, etc.

Democrat Coalition.
On the U.S. Federal Budget, Meeks supports Social Security and Medicare and wants to balance the budget,
lower the national debt while sending money to education, environment and national defense.[2] He is also
against the privatization of Social Security.[3] On Homeland Security, Gregory Meeks has unwavering support of
on-ground troops, and a large supporter of veterans and emergency responders.[4] Finally, Gregory Meeks is a
strong supporter of the Health Care plan and is currently working to promote the extension and expansion of the
State’s Children’s Health Insurance Program. He has also worked hard to increase the federal funding to
research fields to speed cures.[5]
Meeks is pro-choice on abortion, and he supported Planned Parenthood all throughout his career. His votes, such
as voting against the prohibition of late-term or partial birth abortions, twice in 2003 against the Republicans,
support and strengthen his position on abortion. However, in the recent 2008 election for funding federal money
to abortions, he voted against it.[6] He is supported by NARAL Pro-Choice America, National Family Planning
& Reproductive Health Association. He is not supported by National Rights to Life Committee.[7]
Meeks is for animal rights, and he never supported or voted for the organizations supporting hunters and animal
owners based on his votes in Congress. He is also a supporter of endangered species and voted to protect them.
In the 2005 Endangered Species Reauthorization Bill, he voted against the Republicans in vain.[8] He is
supported by the Humane Society of the United States, Big Cats Rescue and is not supported by Sportsmen and
Animal Owner’s Voting Alliance.[6]

3. Meeks is not supported by the Americans for Fair Taxation, which wants to the change the tax system, so a clean
slate is given to every American and he or she is taxed equally by using retail sales tax. However, this would
banish Social Security, Medicare and other government-supported plans.[9] Also, the National Taxpayers Union
does not support Meeks.[10]—the National Taxpayers Union strives to change the current tax system to make it
simpler to the individual[11] Similarly, he is not supported by the National Tax Limitation Committee and
Americans for Tax Reform, which have supported more Republicans than Democrats. None of these groups
have overwhelmingly supported Gregory Meeks since he has been a representative of New York.[12]
Meeks has supported the Bush Administration wiretapping programs that were undertaken without the
attainment of a warrant.
During the 2008 electoral campaign, Meeks appeared in a television advertisement[13] endorsing the reelection
of Puerto Rico Governor Aníbal Acevedo Vilá.
Boycotted Israeli Prime Minister
On March 3, 2015, Meeks participated with fellow Democrats in the boycott of the speech delivered by Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Congress.[14]
Philippine visit
On August 25, 2007, Silvestre Reyes, chairman of the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and the
Armed Services Committee, and four other US Congressmen visited American troops deployed in the southern
Philippines, to overview the US-Philippines relationship. Reyes headed the bipartisan delegation which included
New Jersey Rep. Rodney P. Frelinghuysen, member of appropriations committee and the select intelligence
oversight panel; New Mexico Rep. Heather Wilson of the committee on energy and the intelligence committee;
New York Rep. Gregory W. Meeks, a Democrat, of the financial services and international relations committees;
and Maryland Rep. Dutch Ruppersberger of the appropriations and intelligence committees. They drove to the
base of the Joint Special Operation Task Force Philippines (JSOTFP), a US-led body, which trains Filipino
soldiers against terror, in Barangay Upper Calarian.[15]
Letter to Tirofijo
On December 20, 2007, together with two other US representatives (Bill Delahunt and Jim McGovern), Meeks
wrote a letter thanking the head of the leftist Colombian guerilla organization FARC (Revolutionary Armed
Forces of Colombia, in Spanish) for the release of evidence that confirmed the survival of several of the
forty-five hostages that the terrorist groups held captive (including three US citizens), some of them for over a
decade. The group is considered a terrorist organization by the US government and the European Union (EU).
Congressional Auto Lease
It was recently noted by the New York Times that Meeks utilizes the option to use tax dollars to lease a car, for
use as a member of Congress. This option does not exist for Senate members. The lease is forgone by many
members of Congress, but Meeks has held the most-expensive lease among all members. He has used tax dollars
to lease a 2007 Lexus LS 460, at $998 per month. Meeks was unwilling to provide further comment when
questioned by the New York Times, on the lease arrangement, saying, "These are never lighthearted stories." [16]

4. 2008 House Primary election
Meeks was criticized for initially supporting Hillary Clinton over Barack Obama for President. His House
primary election challenger was to be Ruben Wills, a former chief of staff for State Senator Shirley L. Huntley
and an organizer for Obama. Wills said, "I was on board with Obama from Day 1; Meeks had to be dragged
across the line." Some suggested that a young black political class was seeking to assert the neighborhood’s
power against what it saw as an older establishment, based in Harlem, that had long exercised disproportionate
influence in New York City.[17][18] Wills did not qualify for the ballot, resulting in no primary election taking
place.
2012 House Primary election
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) named Meeks one of the most-corrupt members
of Congress in 2011.[19] It was subsequently reported that Meeks' continuing ethical and criminal probes would
cause his premature exit from Congress;[20] however, Meeks has denied this.[21] Hip hop artist and law school
graduate Mike Scala announced in October 2011 to run for office against Meeks.[22] However, Meeks won the
Democratic primary and was re-elected with 89.7% of the general election vote in November 2012.
Personal life
Ethnically, Gregory Meeks is of African-American heritage, and according to a DNA analysis, he descended,
mainly, from people of Sierra Leone.[23]
