JUST IN: Jeb Bush Super PAC Hit with Massive FEC Fine For Accepting $1.3 Million in Illegal Donations From Chinese Corporation
The Intercept has determined that a corporation owned by a Chinese couple made a major donation to Jeb Bush’s Super PAC Right to Rise USA — and it did so after receiving detailed advice from Charlie Spies, arguably the most important Republican campaign finance lawyer in American politics.
The Spies memo was dated February 19, 2015. One month later, American Pacific International Capital Inc., a California corporation owned by Gordon Tang and Huaidan Chen, a married couple who are citizens of China and permanent residents of Singapore, made a $1 million donation to Right to Rise USA. APIC subsequently gave the group an additional $300,000, its total donation of $1.3 million making APIC one of the Bush Super PAC’s largest contributors.
The FEC responded to the CLC’s complaint on Friday and hit Jeb Bush’s PAC with a massive $390,000 fine in addition to $550,000 in penalties levied against APIC.
This is one of the largest fines ever handed down by the FEC.

“Prease crap.”
Me So Happy
When will the DoJ put a special prosecutor on this case? 2024, when Jeb tries to run for POTUS again.
Well, it’s pretty apparent that Jeb is not the only one on the chicom payroll. Most of D.C. is...
Tip of the iceberg.
Chinese collusion.........
Yep loves global money.
Where’s JEB’s China, China, China investigation?
Somebody needs to redo that Yeb! poster as Xeb or Zheb
Huber is still working on it/SAR
Trust Huber.
” I guess if you give the Chicoms missile technology in exchange for illegal cash its no harm, no foul. “
I appreciate that you are being facetious, but, in this case we know there is massive harm/foul.
It was/is TREASON in any case.
Now do Hillary’s campaign. Jeb Bush. Fighting for Mexico with Chinese money. No surprises there.
Establishment GOP consultant and prominent NeverTrumper Mike Murphy led Right to Rise, the PAC that illegally took $1.3 million from state-owned Chinese gov't corporation. This is Murphy's profile photo. #Projection
Sounds like collusion to me. Investigate all the Bushes.
You ever see pics of Jeb at his father’s funeral? When he got that note, he looked like a kid who was told Santa didn’t exist.
Chef Boyaryeb!
Charlie Spies is the only reason Romney is still standing.
That’s a lot of guac bowls.
A $390,000 fine for illegally accepting $1.3 million was certainly the price they were willing to pay for the use of the ability to sustain the cash flow for Jebs campaign. I doubt this was done without them recognizing the consequences...all in good time.
