Which part of the Constitution authorizes a “Federal Elections Commission”?

He sure looked the part and talked a good game when he first got into politics. He’s proving to be about equal to Liz Cheney.

Good. Too bad the fine was not higher. He is a RINO turncoat and I absolutely despise him.

A question. When a civil assessment is made, where does the money go?

And everyone thought this guy was just wonderful because he served in the military and was injured.

Like most of the rest in D.C., lining their own pockets. Now that he got a slap on the wrist, he’ll really be the lap dog of the left.

When you are in favor of violating people’s rights with NO due process you are not going to get much sympathy from me.

Needs to be more than fines. Fines don’t seem to work

Love millennial headlines … so, why is Crenshaw being fined for something the FEC DID?
