Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) violated Federal Election Commission (FEC) rules pertaining to a candidate receiving a salary from his or her campaign.
Specifically, Tlaib has two salary disbursements that have been called into question: one on Nov. 16 for $2,000 and another on Dec. 1 for $15,500.
These are the rules laid out by the FEC (emphasis mine):
The candidate may receive a salary from his or her campaign committee only under the following conditions:
The salary must be paid by the principal campaign committee; The salary must not exceed the lesser of the minimum annual salary for the federal office sought or what the candidate received as earned income in the previous year; Individuals who elect to receive a salary from their campaign committees must provide income tax records and additional proof of earnings from relevant years upon request from the Commission; Payments of salary from the committee must be made on a pro-rata basis (a candidate may not receive a whole year’s salary if he or she is not a candidate for an entire twelve-month period); Incumbent federal officeholders may not receive a salary payment from campaign funds; and The first payment of salary shall be made no sooner than the filing deadline for access to the primary election ballot in the state in which the candidate is running for office. Salary payments may continue until the date when the candidate is no longer considered a candidate for office or until the date of the general election or general election runoff. For special elections, payments may continue from the date that the special election is set until the date of the special election.
Tlaib violate clearly spelled out rules. There's no possible way to misinterpret what is written in print.
She needs to be procecuted and thrown out of Congress!
Who would hire that quack?
The representative of Hamas from MI is not subject to our laws, she only recognizes sharia as legitimate.
Is she the one that got US citizenship by marrying her brother?
Unless you're a (D) in which case there's ALWAYS an exception.
“Is she the one that got US citizenship by marrying her brother?”
No, that one is from minnesota.
Nothing will happen.
The soft bigotry of lowered expectations; we’re supposed to be impressed that these primitives are even wearing clothing.
Enemy islamists operating under sharia. No rule of law for them. Dare to try and stop them.
She will likely receive a 10 minute time out, to be served on a long Federal holiday weekend.
Another potential issue with Tlaib. Just saw a photo of her recently where her hands were clearly visible. I'm sorry to say they are a man's hands. Very wide fingers, big knuckles, and large middle finger. Am really suspecting “she” is a tranny.
The brother-f*cker is the representative of al-Shabab from MN.
Or vice versa....................
Green card, yes.....................
That is a résumé enhancer among Democrats.
Is she going to jail? No? Then why should we care?
MoFo Tlaib deserves everything coming to her if a Republican prosecutor had the balls to risk the wrath of BJ’s wife’s handlers.
