McConnell: No Federal Money for Investigating Voter Fraud
Breitbart - Big Government ^ | 2-5-2017 | Katherine Rodriguez

Posted on 02/06/2017 3:46:35 AM PST by Sir Napsalot

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said he would not spend federal funds investigating what President Trump says is “massive voter fraud in the 2016 presidential election.”

McConnell told CNN’s Jake Tapper that, although there are instances of voter fraud, he believes that it’s not “as widespread as Trump claims” and that combating voter fraud should be an issue “best left to the states” instead of the federal government.

“Election fraud does occur,” he told CNN’s State of the Union, adding that “there’s no evidence that occurred in such a significant number that it would have changed the presidential election.”

In other words, those blue states can continue their massive voter fraud practice; because nothing will be done if let to those states.

Thanks a lot, Mitch!!!!

I’m sure the money can be had by dumping a few of McConnell’s pet projects.

So he states there is voter fraud, but no evidence to see it can swing an election. Well DUH you RINO, you do the investigation to get the evidence. Frigging idiot.

How about more local elections too which people live under, how;s that voter fraud swinging an election.

No Mitch you need to get off Soros payroll, and do your damn job

That Justice Department has quite a budget. They won’t be using it to investigate a number of things they previously were.

So what did McConnell use the $4.3 Billion he pork barreled for Kentucky for? His reelection campaign?

We can’t be having this uncouth interloper from Manhattan upsetting all of our cozy little New World Order arrangements now, can we?

I was not aware that congress had to budget every criminal investigation. Oh, they don’t.

The FBI or the Marshall service can initiate an investigation.

This probably has something to do with some horse-trading with Sens. MeCain & Graham in exchange for a rule change on the Filibuster. Once the rule-change goes thru all bets are off.

So Pence is going to chair a committee to investigate voter fraud—but won’t have any money to do so?

Good observation. In fact, DJT can shut down whole unconstitutional departments and free up more than enough funds.

This is such an obvious cover up by ole McTurtle.

Please God, let the Washington DC corruption exposing begin!

And I am rather curious why everyone is so anxious to shut down this investigation.

Perhaps Mitch is a beneficiary of vote fraud. Either directly or through Soros favors to turn a blind eye to it.
