WASHINGTON (AP) - Hillary Clinton's former campaign fund-raising director is indicted in Los Angeles.

While the event allegedly cost more than $1.2 million, the indictment said, Rosen reported contributions of about $400,000, knowing the figure to be false.

The indictment charged that Rosen provided some documents to the an FEC compliance officer but withheld the true costs of the event and provided false documents to substantiate the lower figure.

Each of the four counts of making a false statement carries a maximum penalty of up to five years in prison and up to $250,000 in fines upon conviction.

Ickes will come down eventually. He's problematic to the system because anytime he's asked a question with legal standing, his reply is "Go F$@% Yourself". It makes for interesting drama, slows things down, but eventually paves the way to doom.

Vince Foster was Hillary's consigliere too. Ickes knows that and at some point will go into hiding or undergo bypass operations to keep him from getting into the Fort Marcy Hotel.
