This article presents several incidents of political corruption in the U.S. Henry Gonzalez, chairman of the House Banking Committee is investigating the Banca Nazionale del Lavoro SpA scandal and found that various U.S. agencies were not cooperating with his investigation. In the course of his inquiry, Gonzalez has run headlong into the geofinancial gang led by Henry Kissinger. In another incident Senator Alfonse D'Amato is on the run. Both a federal grand jury and the Senate Ethics Committee are probing him. The allegations that he used his influence to reward his campaign contributors and those who hired his brother Armand, an attorney, have earned much notice.
