The Obama administration funneled billions of dollars to activist organizations through a Department of Justice slush fund scheme, according to congressional investigators.

Findings spearheaded by the House Judiciary Committee point to a process shrouded in secrecy whereby monies were distributed to a labyrinth of nonprofit organizations involved with grass-roots activism.

I've seen this story several times, in different forms, and I have seen the buzz words like "slush fund" and "funneled" used to describe the program.

But what I have not yet seen is any accusation that laws were broken. Have laws been broken?

When does McCain and Graham head to the microphones or do a town hall demanding an investigation?

And this is why the left goes after the DOJ. It prevents them from doing their jobs. This is what they did to Gonzalez.

No wonder why the Democrats want Sessions out. They fear that the DoJ may discover that the Obama Administration was aiding both the Muslim Brotherhood and even ISIS—and that could put the former President possibly liable as an accessory to mass murder in multiple countries.

Change it to conservative groups. If they howl, then prosecute.

Attorney General Sessions needs to appoint several Independent Prosecutors.This is the reasons the Democrats are stirring up everything they can. Obama left a trail of theft,fraud and outright subversion behind him. The Democrats are Evil Demon possessed criminals.
Go get em Trump. We are behind you to the point of any dangerous act they take. They are scum and the swamp needs draining. I am afraid you will even out a few Republicans.

The DOJ filed lawsuits against companies and then settled the lawsuits with an agreement by the defendants to steer money to Obama affiliated community organizing groups.

Essentially a DOJ shake down and protection racket.

Laws were written in the courtrooms or in the Judges’ Chambers.

Clearly this isn’t money they need for the administration of justice, so take it out of their budget. Now.

This is similar to another common theme used by the left.

A leftist group. like a Public Employee Union, sues a government agency.

The agency agrees to a “settlement” where the government changes policies to favor the leftist group. Then a judge approves it.

The public gets screwed. No one ever voted for the changes.

It is a collusion between the government and private groups to screw the public.

The DOJ shakedown is not pretty. Attorney General Sessions needs to appoint several Independent Prosecutors.This is the reasons the Democrats are agitating. Obama left a trail of theft, fraud and outright subversion behind him.

Dumbocrats are paranoid AG Sessions might start doing the REAL work of justice——and start asking them tough questions:

FOR INSTANCE:

The Awan criminal Muslim gang collected $5 million tax dollars from congressional offices for IT services.

Trickling in is compelling evidence that they overbilled the stupid Democrats .......and also stole US govt property.

The number of Democrats who employed these criminals could number as high as 80 Democrat members.

Did any Democrats file police reports?

<><> for stolen govt property?
<><> falsifying official govt documents?
<><> falsifying payment vouchers?

I didn’t think so.


DOJ CONTACT PAGE——https://www.justice.gov/contact-us

DEMAND THESE AGENCIES INVESTGATE THE DEMOCRATS IT CASE AND THE DOJ SHAKEDOWN AT ONCE:

<><> FBI — Wire Fraud Division

<><> IRS-Fraud Unit

<><> Department of Justice’s Office of the Inspector General,

<><> Department of Commerce’s Office of Inspector General.

<><> DOJ’s Criminal Division— Public Integrity Section
