| Tax Deadbeat Rev Demands First-Class, Five-Star Perqs (and, Hillary's "Coverup Team" Revealed) The top story today at NationalReview.com is Jillian Melchior's report on tax deadbeat Al Sharpton's demands for his speaking appearances at public colleges. Here are the first paragraphs of "The First-Class, Five-Star Rev": When he speaks at public colleges and universities, Al Sharpton flies first-class, stays in upscale hotels, travels to events in a chauffeured vehicle, and often brings a bodyguard or aide with him. He makes these demands on taxpayer-funded institutions, despite owing as much as $4.5 million in unpaid taxes and penalties. "In terms of travel, Rev. Sharpton travels first class on flights and will require a large black SUV for transportation and, if the trip requires lodging, he will require a suite in a four/five star hotel," wrote Sharpton's assistant, Abyssinia Tirfe, in an August 14, 2014, e-mail to Michigan State University (MSU) obtained by National Review. "Also, Rev. Sharpton travels with [an] aide who will require [an] economy ticket and a standard hotel room (if needed)." Read the complete story by clicking here. Melchior has written a number of major pieces exposing the shady financial underside of the Sharpton empire. Must-reading is last week's story on how the tax-troubled politician has been conveniently plagued by . . . fire. Melchior wrote that fires at Sharpton's "offices reportedly destroyed critical financial records, and he subsequently failed to comply with tax and campaign filing requirements."

A left-wing writer and racial-justice activist who has claimed that American society was "instituted by racist ideas and maintained by racist policies" published a black history book for kids earlier this year that appears to be filled with content plagiarized from other sources, according to a review of the book by National Review . Confronted with the apparent plagiarism, the book’s publisher said it would be pulled from circulation pending an investigation. Rann Miller, a New Jersey-based activist and educator, published Resistance Stories from Black History for Kids in March. According to the book, it is designed to be a "place of entry" into the history of the African people so readers will be "empowered to fight" injustices in the world. Miller, a former teacher who has both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree from Rutgers University, also writes opinion pieces for the Philadelphia Inquirer , the Progressive Magazine, and education websites
