NBC reports:

The catty catwalker is back -- and on the run.

Naomi Campbell's driver says she slapped and punched him while he was driving her around midtown Manhattan, a law enforcement official said.

The official says the 39-year-old model became enraged with the driver and started to hit him from the back seat. It happened around 3 p.m. Tuesday.
Sources told NBCNewYork that Campbell attacked the driver with a cell phone -- which seems to be her favorite weapon.

The driver stopped the car around 58th Street and Second Avenue and called and spoke to a traffic agent, who alerted police, according to NYPD spokesman Paul Browne. He said Campbell jumped out of the car and ran away.

Police are currently looking to speak to Campbell. The driver is talking to investigators at the 17th precinct on East 51st Street.

In a statement, Campbell's spokesman Jeff Raymond said, "There shouldn't be a rush to judgment. Naomi will co-operate voluntarily, and there is more to the story than meets the eye."

The New York Post reports:

Maniacal mannequin Naomi Campbell has allegedly pummeled the help again -- this time, a chauffeur who says she thwacked him repeatedly in the head with her fist from the back seat as her Cadillac Escalade careened through Midtown yesterday afternoon.

The volatile diva allegedly struck Miodrag Mejdina, 27, of Ridgewood, Queens, hard enough to send his head into the steering wheel -- leaving him with a bruise under his left eye, according to police sources.

She was apparently furious over the fact that Mejdina, who also has chauffeured her boyfriend, refused to snitch on her beau and tell her whether he was cheating on her, sources said.
DRIVEN MAD: Naomi Campbell, with boyfriend Vlad Doro nin, allegedly struck chauffeur Miodrag Mejdina yesterday while he was driving her Cadillac Escalade.

When the stunned chauffeur pulled over at the corner of East 58th Street and Second Avenue to summon a nearby traffic agent, Campbell allegedly bolted from the car and fled down the street.

By the time cops arrived, the hot-headed supermodel had vanished.

The banged-up driver spent much of yesterday afternoon at the 17th Precinct filing a report on the incident. Campbell's assistant was also at the station house.

But by last night, Mejdina -- spooked by the media onslaught and thinking his bruised ego may have gotten the better of him -- backed off filing charges, a police spokesman said. He was spirited out the back of the station house and took off in his limo without speaking to reporters.

Well, something really big must be getting ready to go down with Ole’ CC as he’s known in certain circle here in NYC. I for one am very pleased that Rangel is slithering away from the chairmanship.

But, the man belongs in jail!

NBC News reports:

Sources say Harlem Democrat Charles Rangel will step down as chairman of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee soon, NBC News has learned.


He may make the move as early as tonight as pressure mounts and sources told NBC that either Michigan Democratic Rep Sander Levin or California Democrat Pete Stark will temporarily take over the committee.

Some details still need to be ironed out, but the sources said Rangel has been pushed to step down before the House voted on a bill to forcefully strip him of the coveted chairmanship.

What kind of justice is this?

Democrat Brooklyn DA, Charles Hynes, who made his fame on the 1986 racial attack at Howard Beach, didn’t see anything wrong with ACORN workers giving advice on how to perform legal activity to a pimp and a prostitute.

How is that exactly?

Anybody want to check Hynes’s checking account for non-profit donations for his re-election fund?

The New York Daily News reports:

Brooklyn prosecutors on Monday cleared ACORN of criminal wrongdoing after a four-month probe that began when undercover conservative activists filmed workers giving what appeared to be illegal advice on how to hide money. While the video by James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles seemed to show three ACORN workers advising a prostitute how to hide ill-gotten gains, the unedited version was not as clear, according to a law enforcement source.

"They edited the tape to meet their agenda," said the source.

O'Keefe and Giles - who visited ACORN offices in several cities, including its Brooklyn headquarters - stirred controversy when they posted the videos on their Web site.
They were hailed as heroes by the likes of Rush Limbaugh and their footage led several government agencies to temporarily cut funding for ACORN as the prosecutors opened an investigation.

"On Sept. 15, 2009, my office began an investigation into possible criminality on the part of three ACORN employees," Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes said in a one-paragraph statement issued Monday afternoon.

"That investigation is now concluded and no criminality has been found."

These people in Argentina died for what exactly? This is getting out of hand here to think that scientific facts can be arrived at through consensus.
