more than $50,000 in illegal donations to the Democratic committees

How much more than $50,000?
This smells. Could it be a whole lot more than the public will be allowed to see is here?
More than likely!

I doubt, we the people, can be certain he didn't contribute and hasn't been contributing with the investigative process and 'the republic's right to know' in place......

God bless you for your service to our nation, Piquaboy!

The fact that the LA Times reports this represents progress of a sort.

Move along folks....nothing to see here..

Pakistani behaving badly...working against the real interests of America.
DNC taking ILLEGAL contribution from America's enemies.....
Islamists showing favor to their allies, the DNC..

How far away is the outrage that will lead to a "serious" response from AMERICANS?

Semper Fi
