The biggest Hillary Clinton scandal no one's talking about
Washington Examiner ^ | January 10, 2018 | Ted Harvey

Posted on 01/13/2018 10:28:24 AM PST by COUNTrecount

You've heard of Benghazi and Uranium One. But more than a year after Hillary Clinton’s resounding loss to President Trump, she must now grapple with a new scandal: An ongoing Federal Election Commission investigation into an alleged $84 million money laundering scheme orchestrated by the Hillary Victory Fund — the $500 million joint fundraising committee between the Clinton campaign, the Democratic National Committee, and Democratic state parties.

Based on former DNC Chairwoman Donna Brazile’s public comments, a memo by former Clinton campaign manager Robbie Mook, and months of reviewing FEC reports, the Committee to Defend the President has filed an FEC complaint accusing the Democratic establishment of using state chapters as straw men to circumvent campaign donation limits and launder money to Clinton’s campaign. The Hillary Victory Fund solicited six-figure donations from major donors, including Calvin Klein and “Family Guy” creator Seth MacFarlane, “papered” them through state parties en route to DNC and then the Clinton campaign.

In reality, the fund either never transferred $84 million to state parties, sending the funds straight to the DNC, or it made the transfers without state parties having actual control of the money. In either case, the fund violated campaign finance laws in precisely the way the Supreme Court deemed illegal in its 2014 McCutcheon v. FEC ruling. And that’s only the tip of allegations in this particular iceberg.

If and when the allegations are confirmed by the FEC, Clinton’s $84 million money laundering scheme will go down as the single largest campaign finance scandal in U.S. history.

Of course, the New York Times has not devoted a single drop of ink to the $84 million scandal. While MSNBC’s lack of coverage is hardly surprising, CNN’s radio silence is deafening and once again contradicts the network’s self-described nonpartisanship.

It’s all bad, but to me Benghazi is why Hillary and Obama should be yardbirds.

2018 is looking like a really good year for the Clintoons!

May, 2018 become the worse year ever for these criminals.

There are just so many Clinton scandals that no one is talking about, it’s hard to keep track of them all.

When Brazile’s book came out, it was clear to me that Hillary did exactly what old Adolf did: assume complete party authority over finances, hiring/firing, and policy. Yup, Hitler did all that, and now it was Hillary’s turn to try a page from history. Godwin’s law doesn’t really apply when it’s true.

Why would anyone think that the MSM - the PR arm of the DNC - would want to cover this scandal and obvious criminal enterprise? The DNC, Hillary, Lil Debbie, and Donna’s Brassiere are imune as they all benefit from the Deep State “headquarters treatment”. Nothing to see here, move along.

2018 is the year Bill Jeff Blythe expires. I’m making book.

They’ll say the strain was more than he could bear

To me, the biggest crime ever committed when it comes to campaign “financing”, is how the democrats were able to turn the media, over the years, to be permanent mouthpieces for their party. In essence, the liberal media should be considered willing participants in espousing the democratic party’s agenda. That should carry a value of perhaps $500 million to $1 billion dollars in a presidential campaign. If the democrats were to have paid for the friendly air coverage over 2 years of campaigning, that could easily surpass $2 billion in value.

It’s no wonder that the Hillary campaign, and especially the “vast left-wing media” were so sorrowful when they all lost to someone that only spent a tiny fraction of what the democrats and their liberal left-wing media spent.

A value needs to be assigned to any friendly coverage that a candidate gets, no matter what the party or candidate. Right now, there is no reporting of facts in the left-wing media, and it’s all anti-Trump attacks all the time, with attacks on other republicans sprinkled in just to appear a bit “balanced” in coverage.

Agreed. The other high crimes and misdemeanors committed - treason/sedition/corruption/pay for play - are just every day abuses by the Dems because they are immune from prosecution.

Benghazi? A firing squad is the ONLY justice for pigs like these!

Maybe they are all counting on their theory that sometimes things are too big to fail.

If their scandals are too big, then maybe they won't fail.

they won’t have to cover it, but how will they explain their hero’s wearing orange standing behind bars?

LOL. So this would be scandal #125,298?

I don’t know what is funnier. The article about the latest scandal or the the cadre of folks waiting for her to somehow, someday be “brought to justice.” Laws are for the little people. The Arkansites are not little people.

Politics is a scam and we’re suckers for playing.

Yet she is still not under arrest, you or I would already be under the jail; Hillary is the definition of above the law.

It was because of the Benghazi investigation that we learned she had set up a private email server that was left unprotected.
