(Vanity) Possible Hillary / DNC Election Law Funding Violation?
VANITY / VARIOUS

Posted on 11/02/2017 11:56:11 AM PDT by TigerClaws

We all remember Dinesh D'Souza was convicted of funneling an extra twenty grand to a candidate for U.S. Senate he supported using two 'straw men' (undisclosed 3rd party) donors.

How is this not the same thing?

Donna Brazile:

"Individuals who had maxed out their $2,700 contribution limit to the campaign could write an additional check for $353,400 to the Hillary Victory Fund—that figure represented $10,000 to each of the 32 states’ parties who were part of the Victory Fund agreement—$320,000—and $33,400 to the DNC. The money would be deposited in the states first, and transferred to the DNC shortly after that. Money in the battleground states usually stayed in that state, but all the other states funneled that money directly to the DNC, which quickly transferred the money to Brooklyn."

***

Note: Transferring the money "to Brooklyn" means directly to the Hillary Clinton campaign as that's where it was located.

Has Donna exposed a criminal conspiracy?

The law:

Contribution Limits An individual may give a maximum of:

$2,700 per election to a federal candidate or the candidate's campaign committee.2 Notice that the limit applies separately to each election. Primaries, runoffs and general elections are considered separate elections.

I agree, nice job.

And this is why she said they’d hang if they lost.

Brazen criminals get sloppy...

The RATS trying to clean house. The only way to do that is to eliminate the Democrat party.

Donna Brazile needs to be interviewed by the DOJ. Jeff, are you awake.

I assume that you know that the Pubbies are different from the Rats, right? There are two standards, one for the Pubbies and another for the Rats. Therefore, these are different.

Sleepy Sessions could easily make a prima facie case that Hillary Clinton committed gross negligence in violation of 18 USC 793 in improperly transmitting thousands of classified documents. Since she has not, and will not, be prosecuted for this obvious case, there is no reason to believe that she will be prosecuted for anything.

Hillary skates. There is no Special Prosecutor for our side even starting to emerge.

Mueller will see that his long arm encompasses all things Clinton and with it digs a hole in which to bury it. Forever.

Mueller is surely timing all movement and damage to coincide with mid term elections and the 2020 election. Meanwhile, without an SP for our side, Mueller has the entire field to himself, including yard lines, time clock, time outs, substitutions, fouls and touch downs.

Donna Brazile was explaining how the DNC was run by Hillary. Sending money to the PACs isn’t illegal.

Well, D’Souza used strawmen to avoid the limit to contribute directly to a candidate, which is illegal. In this scheme, they just use the loophole of donating to the political parties themselves and letting the party forward money to the candidate, which is not illegal.

We may see no difference, but there is a difference under the laws as they are written, because they are stupid laws.

Multiple violations. They circumvented the Federal election law against using foreign operators as employees of the campaign by routing the money through Perkins Coie for the Steele dossier, for example.

This describes how the party picks winners. Sending money to your candidate is capped at $2700.00. But, laundering your money through your giving to your state party committee and PACS, and let them move money to the National Committee, by some agreement. Is this correct, what Brazile was describing???

D'Souza agreed to reimburse his mistress & another person if they donated directly to a senatorial campaign. It was done to knowingly violate campaign finance laws regarding donations above a set amount to individual candidates from individual donors.

The Dem donations involve contributions not to the candidate but to a PAC (or whatever), although the donations in question obviously end up, at least in part, supporting Hillary.

The latter has been going on for decades by both parties, is perfectly fine under campaign finance law, and is also very swampy & slimy. But, still technically legal.

And this is why she said they’d hang if they lost.

The arrogant criminality and TREASON of the clintons and the 0bama regime are precisely why the DEEP STATE has been working overtime against President Trump since the day after the election. They are deathly afraid that President Trump will ensure that justice is served!

I heard Hannity say, just a little while ago, that Brazile is a good Christian woman. He’s wrong: she ain’t. She’s been aiding and abetting the criminal Clintons for as long as I can remember.

Yes, but evidently Sessions doesn’t consider election fraud if it was done by the Democrats namely Hillary

Isn’t Donna a lesbian?

She also put her foot in the moth of the DNC as there’s a pending class action over collusion and ripping off money from Bernie supporters who didn’t know the game was rigged.
