Where was a Federal grand jury when Hillary was getting grocery bags stuffed with cash from Johnny Chung? Democrats are never investigated for suspicious campaign donations or voter fraud.

Commies no doubt out to destroy a very good conservative Governor. That’s the pattern.

Is that a bad thing? Are you not allowed to get loans in Kansas?

The media and the Demon Rats (but I repeat myself) thought they were going to best Brownback in November. He won by four points.

So they pull this out of their butts.

It's kinda what the Republicans get for never fighting back or saying anything when you have super corrupt dems that owe millions in taxes, take bribes and sit on committees when they themselves were part of the criminal activities the said committee is investigating. Republicans just roll over. Dems NEVER roll.

"Is that a bad thing? Are you not allowed to get loans in Kansas?'

Just a silly wild a** guess, could the Fed's angle be money laundering, the old Tome Delay accusation.

Brownback under investigation by the partisan DOJ for suspicion of being a Republican.

I don’t understand the money in political races...but it does seem weird that such large loans are made then paid back within days of the loan. Not suggesting nefarious reasons...just that I do not understand why a 3 day loan was even needed.
