Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) may be in hot water with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) after she paid herself $17,500 in campaign funds following the 2018 midterm elections, according to a report.
Recent FEC filings show that the freshman Democrat lawmaker may have run afoul of campaign finance rules by making payments to herself after she ended her candidacy on Election Day.
According to FEC rules, a general election candidate can take a salary from his or campaign funds until the date of the election.
If the candidate loses the primary, withdraws from the race, or otherwise ceases to be a candidate, no salary payments may be paid beyond the date he or she is no longer a candidate, according to FEC rules.
But Tlaibs FEC filings show that she dipped into her campaign coffers twice after the election, paying herself $2,000 on November 16 and $15,500 on December 1. The payments, which were all made weeks after the 2018 midterms ended, raised the question of whether Tlaib violated FEC statutes.

Ha-ha, busted!
She’s a muslim, a female and, above all, a Democrat - a class, as we all have seen, which is above the law.
“may be in hot water..”
yeah
right..
Wasn’t it Yogi Berra that said
“I’ll believe it when I believe it.”
She is a MUSLIM, DEMOCRAT, “female”.....NOTHING will happen to her!
It could be argued that a candidate would need to be officially certified as the winner by their locale’s election boards before they would have to stop taking funds, especially if recounts take several weeks or more;if so I want that rule applied to all parties.
Rules and laws dont apply to Dems. Ask Hillary.
And yet, these sons of bitches continually walk free.
Laws are only for the chumps. Not them.
I would argue the contrary.
The election having occurred the campaign is over. Anything after the election is post-campaign legalities.
I would argue other than lawyers, accountants and those to whom the campaign owes money (advertising agencies) no one should be receiving payments from the campaign fund after election day.
I’m not saying I agreed with my own statement but knowing Dem’s they might try to argue for it...especially Taqqyah types!
Just another helping of Outrage Fatigue for our already full plates.
She is a muslim. Anything done to destroy her enemies, including stealing campaign donations, is fine in the eyes of that murderous cult.
JoMa
She’s a victim, holding at least 3 victim cards.
The FEC is a toothless, arthritic old hound when it comes to pursuing Democrat election irregularities.
She’s a ‘rat? No problem. /s
Shes a victim, holding at least 3 victim cards.
Yes, yes, but the point is as a Democrat, she is above the law
If I were head of the CIA, NSA, DHS, etc, I would be watching this radical like a hawk.
She always has her mouth wide open. So does Hillary Clinton. Always. What is up with that?

Ratshita Tlaib Lied About Residency To Run For Office, Registered To Vote At False Address

Michigan Democrat Ratshita Tlaib registered to vote from a false address, and represented a state House district that she did not actually live in, according to credit score and property records obtained by Big League Politics. Tlaibs own father even said that Tlaib lied about her address in order to run for office. Here is what the evidence, presented below, proves:
Tlaib registered to vote at a false address as she embarked on her first political campaign. Registering to vote using a false address is one of a number of crimes that fall into the voter fraud category.
Tlaib ran for and represented the 12th district in the Michigan House of Representatives even though she was not a resident of that district.
Records show that Tlaib was an Absentee Owner at the Detroit house she claimed to live in. ...
The Detroit news media erased information about these crimes from the Internet.
A Change.org petition entitled IMPEACH RASHIDA TLAIB is now closing in on 300,000 signatures amid national controversy for Tlaibs profane comments about President Trump. The petition states: She lied about living in Detroit using her fathers house address .. she never lived there .. she lived in Dearborn ., her father has verified this .. you must live in the district you are running in to represent .. We demand a full investigation and recount of every vote that she supposedly received.. ... Dearborn is not a part of the 12th House District that Tlaib was elected to represent
