While American families suffer under record inflation and gas prices and record crime, two top Democrats traveled to France to sip wine and hold a fundraiser for Democrats.
Representatives Adam Schiff and Sean Patrick Maloney have scheduled “Stop MAGA Republicans” fundraisers for the DCCC in Paris, London, and Switzerland.
Here are the DCCC invitations to supporters in Geneva and Paris.

Similar to how there are fewer and fewer AMERICANS who support Democrats, so they have to import them (they could produce more Democrats naturally, but their abortion and LGBT agendas mitigate that).
How is that legal?
Foreigners only want what’s best for ordinary americans
They claimed to be there to get donations from Americans in France - so they said. And if someone believes that lie, we have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell them.
Evem of it - a donation - came from an “Ameican’s account in France”, is there anyway of telling what foreigners gave to that account? Not without a DOJ that was interested and then not wihout French cooperation - both of which are in short supply at the moment.
Do they know that many of the top people in France aren’t jabbed ???
Their rich donors probably aren’t either ...
I register as a Democrat. I move to Paris. I run a bag all over Paris as instructed by the DNC. The DNC sends private charter politicals on chartered planes to make collections. Private charters flout customs currency regulations. All they typically provide is a manifest. Customs usually doesn’t even board the plane or inspect the cargo. I’ve witnessed that thousands of times.
While we’re on the subject, I’ve wondered for decades why we permit Americans in the USA to contribute to people they can’t vote for, i.e., who are “foreign” to the area being represented. The wealthy can have more influence in such an area than the residents. How does that make sense?

LOLOL!! That poison was never for them. It was for YOU!
After all, YOU are the carbon they want to reduce.
Probably. Democrats are trash.

So we’re told
“Foreign” Campaign Money Completely Destroys Representative Government
Most are aware that political contributions from foreign citizens are illegal in America, and we approve because we believe that only citizens should finance our political campaigns. Even if a foreign national owns a great deal of property in the US, he’s not allowed to vote or contribute to political campaigns whose outcomes would effect his property.
Why shouldn’t this be true on all political levels? Why should someone “foreign” to your county be able to contribute to a county official he can’t vote for, when his contribution may sway the election much more than your vote? Why should someone outside your Senate or House Congressional district be able to contribute to a candidate that he is not allowed to vote for when his contribution may exert much more influence than your vote? Why should a citizen foreign to Texas be allowed to contribute to the campaign of a Texas Senator or Representative that he cannot possibly vote for when his contribution may influence the politicians much more than all Texans?
When an orange-grower in Florida contributes thousands to a Texas senatorial candidate because he thinks he will be helped in Florida, who do you really think that candidate will represent more effectively? You, who may contribute nothing or a few dollars, or the “foreign” orange-grower?
Don’t such “foreign” contributions completely destroy representative government? Not impressed with how your representatives are concerned about your will? Perhaps it’s because their allegiance has been bought off.
Federal Election Committee records show that Senator Kent Conrad (D-ND) received 97% of his individual contributions in a recent year from outside his state! Who do you think he represents? Who would you represent, if nearly all of your contributions came from “foreigners?” This is not an attack on Conrad or Democrats. All politicians of all parties are involved, and all citizens of whatever political stripe have had their representation robbed by foreign contributions.
Why not make it illegal to contribute to any candidate for any office you can’t vote for? This would include outlawing corporate contributions, since corporations cannot vote in any election. Then perhaps elected officials would represent local citizens who voted for, and supported them, rather than foreign and corporate interests.
Why not identify politicians not only with their party and state, but also with their “foreign factor”? Kent Conrad would be identified as (D-ND-F=97%) in the paper and on television. Betcha campaign financing would change in a hurry!
Former Senate Majority leader Howard Baker supported this concept, and got nowhere with it. I doubt if I will either. Congress won’t fix this problem; they’re too “degraded” seeking campaign funds, senators to the tune of $50,000 per day.
We probably won’t get enough people mad enough to pick up their pitchforks and torches, but at least let’s don’t bother fiddling with congressional district boundaries and touting “one man one vote” as long as out-of-state contributors and corporations exercise such undue influence over our politicians.
Reeks of bull dookey to me.
Wannabe tyrants always fear free speech. This is how you recognize them.
It’s not.
FTA....
Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., was spotted on video sipping wine with Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) Chairman Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney, D-N.Y., and Democratic donors during a recent Paris event highlighted by Maloney’s opponent in the midterm elections.
Schiff and Maloney embarked on a tour of Europe last week to fundraise from Democrats living abroad, Punchbowl News first reported. The New York Times’ Shane Goldmacher tweeted a screenshot Sunday of one of the fundraising invites to a “cocktail reception and dinner benefiting the DCCC” in Paris on Oct. 1.
Another invite tweeted by Goldmacher was to a DCCC fundraiser in Geneva, Switzerland, on Oct. 3.
Which Paris?
Paris, New York?
Paris, Maine?
Paris, Illinois?
Paris, Kentucky?
Paris, Tennessee?
Paris, Arkansas?
Paris, Texas?
I don't know how many of them have swanky restaurants.
There are plenty of US Democrats living abroad and they have a lot of money. There may also be something corrupt about this, but Gateway Pundit isn’t above twisting things to stir up outrage.
Exactly.. foreign funds used in an election are illegal....at least for republicans.
Legal? Barely. Dimokrats like to party internationally, spend campaign money to do it, by calling it a “fundraiser.” They tend to do it when they know they are about done for and have leftover campaign cash to get rid of. They’re limited in the ways they can spend it on themselves so “fund raising” is their loophole.
