Ex-Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin launched her political action fund, Sarah PAC, in 2009 with the stated purpose "to help elect principled conservative leaders" across the country. But the latest Federal Election Commission filing indicates that money raised in small contributions by Sarah PAC is going to consultants, speech-writing services, direct-mail appeals, as well as stays by Palin in fancy hotels.

Sarah PAC raised $950,000 in 2015, spent a total of $1.4 million, and donated just 23,500 to 45 campaigns. It also...

I would like to hear a good explanation for this.

Has the money Trump raised for vets been accounted for yet?

No more politics as usual! These corrupt, unaccountable actions of typical politicians are why our Republic is in jeopardy.

Oh boy. Don’t serve Saint Teddy Cruz and you get destroyed. How wonderful. Typical of Cruz showing zero integrity.

I gave 50 bucks and would never ask that question. I bet he gives even more. Once you give, that is it. I think even the Bible says you shouldn’t worry about charity just give it.

I don’t know too much about this but I hear it is a big thing. A very big thing.

It would seem she is paying for her attendance at rallies of the people she’s endorsing.

“She spent $4,563 at the Waldorf Astoria in New York, on a visit when she appeared on Saturday Night Live’s 40th anniversary show.”

She charged this to her PAC? I guess people who donated didn’t think that’s what should spend all the money on. Her endorsement of Trump keeps making more and more sense.

He has given far more money to the Clinton Foundation than he ever gave to vets.

Just goes to show what kind of person is continually stabbing Ted Cruz in the back, first by throwing in with the ultimate crony-capitalist (not to mention lifelong leftist) Donald Trump, and then with her string of faux outrage rants “Is this why everybody hates Ted Cruz”, “Ted Cruz the liar”, “Ted Cruz the dirty trickster”, etc, etc, etc.

I will never ever promote, support, or defend that lady ever again.

Staying at the Waldorf for an appearance on SNL? Did they not pay her for that appearance?

No surprise here. I’ve always Sarah PAC as a fund to support Sarah’s travel and political activities, office expenses, etc. Just to keep her in the political arena as long as there are people to support her PAC.
