I need to get into politics. That or drug dealing. They both seem to pay off well.
Is Mad Maxine paying her daughter those hundreds of thousands from the campaign or are you and I paying for the daughter’s valuable contributions to congress?
You’d think these dumbass Democrats would get a new play book. This crap is getting old. Lets start taking a look at the finances of all the elected Democrats — now that would be interesting.
Deep State attacking.
“Is Nunes getting close to the truth about who is really involved in ‘Russian collusion’ investigation?”
Yep.
Must be or retaliation.
He actually said...”Tell VLAD I’ll have more flexibility after the election”.
Anyone who is under suspicion or who has committed crimes... lived breaking laws... they forfeit their right to even talk about someone else and what they might claim.
Until you clean up and take in all who have been the guilty all along...
Leave Nunes alone!!
You must wine and dine people. I’m betting this is true of every politician
Heh....yeah, even better.
The story is a lame-brained hit job. If Nunes was using these funds for personal benefit, that’s illegal. But if “fund raising expenses” are indeed the explanation, they are straightforward. There’s nothing wrong, for example, with holding a fundraiser at a winery. My guess is that this is fairly routine for a California politician. So you pay the winery. That’s not a scandal.
Great! I’m glad to hear he’s spending some of the money I donated him for R & R, if anybody deserves a break it’s him. Ask his supporters if they give a rip. I wouldn’t care if it was spent on hookers as long as they weren’t teenage boys.

That’s probably even a bargain, under the circumstances :)
These prices are very modest if the PAC was holding events. It's impossible to evaluate them without knowing the character of said events. An elegant sit down dinner for ten major donors is one thing. A meet and greet reception for 150 of the congressman's closest friends is another. Bring in a speaker, provide entertainment, do a winetasting, whatever
reporters who write these kinds of stories have obviously never been involved with fundraising or event management.
If this money had been used on the sly and not reported, Nunes would have troubles. Not much to see if these are listed as campaign expenses. If Nunes donors have a problem with it, they’ll cut of the spigot.
