Lawsuit: State Dems Funneled $84 Million to Clinton Campaign
breitbart ^ | KATHERINE RODRIGUEZ

Posted on 06/09/2018 4:50:18 PM PDT by davikkm

Up to 40 Democratic parties at the state level may have participated in a scheme to feed $84 million to Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign in 2016, a campaign lawyer claims. Dan Backer, a Virginia-based attorney, filed a lawsuit claiming that the parties planned to bypass federal campaign contribution limits.

“You had individuals giving $300,000,” Backer told the Las Vegas Review-Journal Friday. “They’re not doing it because they care about Nevada’s or Arkansas’ state party. They’re doing it to curry favor with and buy influence with Hillary Clinton.”

Backer, who represents a pro-Trump political action committee called the Committee to Defend the President, initially filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) in December, alleging that Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) colluded with state-level parties to bypass federal campaign contribution limits.

Backer said he filed his latest lawsuit because the FEC failed to act before the deadline.

The campaign finance attorney said records show the Hillary Victory Fund transferred $1.7 million to the Nevada Democratic Party from December 2015 to November 2016. But the state party claimed it received only $146,200 and transferred the money to the DNC.

He added that the Hillary Victory Fund sent the other $1.6 million to the Nevada Democratic Party, but the DNC received the money and it never showed up on the state party’s campaign finance reports.

Wow, FEC failed to act? Time to fire those who “failed to act” and get some employees who want to do their job.

For such a vile piece of garbage you have to give her a lot of credit for being able to raise and spend an astronomical amount of money for an election she was supposed to walk away with.

How many of those states have States Attorneys or Secretaries of State that were supported by George Soros?

Well, no wonder the hillaryites are so pissed that Trump won...it cost them a gazillion bucks to finance her boring and lackadaisical campaign.

Well, you lie down with dogs, you get fleas....

EVERYBODY attacks Trump because these loud voices were all going to get a piece of the pie because they literally paid for it. It’s called “Pay to Play” and this crime puts people in Federal Prison. The bigger crimes were the breaking of National Security Protocols and outright TREASON.

You’ve got to think they were going to refill the coffers of all those state parties with grafted FedGov money once HRC was elected. OOOPS!

This might make things interesting for the mid-terms.

That’s only the beginning. Given how much the Clinton campaign spent ($1.3 billion), you really have to ask how was that campaign funded.

Sessions is totally AWOL. When the IG’s report comes out showing the corruption/conspiracy that remains unaddressed, Trump should fire him immediately.
