Michael Grimm

Michael Grimm is a Republican congressman from New York, who represents Staten Island and a small portion of Brooklyn. Grill worked for the FBI prior to becoming a congressman.

An April, 2011 article in the New Yorker alleges an incident occurred in 1999 where Grimm, while working for the FBI, pulled his gun, made a racial remark, and blew his FBI cover in a bar fight in the middle of the night in Queens.

Haaretz reports:
 * Followers of Rabbi Yoshiyahu Yosef Pinto, an influential figure in Israel who is based in Manhattan, raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for Congressman Michael Grimm when he first ran for office in 2010, according to campaign records. Some donors have since said that they broke rules to donate more cash to the Republican's campaign than allowed by law.
