Is Ocasio-Cortez’s Campaign Finance Fiasco Going To End Her Reign Of Crazy On The Hill?
Town Hall ^ | 5 Mar, 2019 | Matt Vespa

Posted on 03/05/2019 5:18:12 PM PST by MtnClimber

All right, we’re back, and the rising star of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) could come crashing down, and it might take her chief of staff with her. It all started when political consultant Luke Thompson noticed that AOC’s boyfriend has a congressional email for some odd reason. This is also a possible ethics violation, but that just scratched the surface. There are more details involving an FEC complaint, where nearly a million dollars in campaign contributions were illegally moved off the books. Yes, this is a serious allegation and one that carries jail time for AOC and her chief of staff. Oh, and they took control of Justice Democrats PAC before her upset primary win over Joe Crowley…and it appears their controlling interest was hidden from federal authorities

Please let her stay so her crazy ideas can be on the news every night until the 2020 election.

We can only hope.

This new batch of crazy dems needs to be taken out ASAP and replaced with conservatives.

Course, that’s not likely to happen, but a girl can dream.

It’s not a Fiasco, it’s a scam.

I agree.
If she’s convicted, perhaps a POTUS pardon can get her back in action quickly.

She’s PROTECTED by her party, as they know that taking her out will lead to an all-out REVOLT by the base.

This will ‘quietly’ go away.

Whenever a headline asks a question, the answer is usually, “No.” It holds true here.

No.

She is untouchable. Best to wait until the second term, so as not to adversely impact the election. We know that if anyone goes after her, Trump will be excoriated for it.

Nevada Legislature only meets every other year, for a maximum of 120 days. They started this year at beginning of February.

Today, the MAJORITY Leader of the Nevada Senate had to PUBLICALLY RESIGN.....

Seems he got caught using campaign $$$$$ for personal purposes. I don’t know how he gets replaced. But a ‘tearful black leader’ got caught.

Sadly, something that you will NEVER hear the Dims say, or do, in a reverse situation. :(

"if "a complaint were filed, I would think it would trigger a serious investigation.” He also noted that such a probe could potentially result in jail time for Ocasio-Cortez and her chief of staff, Chakrabarti."

So, why not file?

AOC = PLT Pompous Little Twit

Overseen by Saikat Chakrabarti, the freshman socialist Democrat’s chief of staff Puppet Master! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Amish? Not Really!: Ocasio-Cortez’s, boyfriend was paid $6,000 by a PAC owned by AOC’s Puppet Master, Saikat Chakrabarti, now her chief of staff, at a time “when her campaign was running out of money.”

The PAC is affiliated with Justice Democrats, a collaboration between Chakrabarti and Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks, Thompson noted.

Who might Saikat Chakrabarti be?

So what, my voters and supporters don’t give a damn about realities and real history!

Again there are no coincidences at thi
