Hillary setup was my first thought when I heard about the interview. Even if not true, does cause a wide smile.

This was the twitter post from ellen weintraub I was referring you to in my other post.

Since l don’t tweet either, l was hoping you could find it & post it for all to see.

Glad you sourced it & posted it.

Thanx

There is no way,shape or form that Weintraub is correctly interpreting the "anything of value" phrase in the statute. It wouldn't stand up to a 1st amendment free speech test.

The FEC - via statute - allows a foreign national to be an unpaid volunteer on a U.S. election campaign. But if this volunteer has dirt on my opponent, he can't tell me ? Good luck with that.

just to get it out there - Weintraub is a RAT. Her term expired 2007. Why is she still there ?
