Luis Gutierrez Paid His Wife Over $300,000 From Campaign Funds
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 23 June 2016 | Joe Schoffstall

Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D., Ill.) has paid his wife and daughters hundreds of thousands of dollars from his campaign’s coffer since 2010, according to campaign finance data.

Gutierrez, who was first elected to Congress in 1993, brought his wife, Soraida Gutierrez, onto his campaign’s payroll six years ago to act as his office manager, treasurer, and fundraiser.

Soraida Gutierrez was a registered lobbyist in the state of Illinois from 2003 to 2009 before joining Gutierrez for Congress. She has since raked in more than $300,000 for her work on behalf of the committee while being the top recipient of campaign cash in three cycles since stepping into her role.

Luis came to power from the Latin Kings in Chicago, who had the ability to “get out the vote”.

Those who wonder why Chicago gangs aren’t eradicated can thank people like this who rely on gangs for a cut of the drug pie and their get out the vote influence.

And at the federal level, one can only assume that the world gangs (ISIS) deal the same way with our politicians.

They are bought and paid for by the enemies of the American people.

Can’t imagine why this is news. Almost everyone should know by now that the primary reason democrats get into politics is for the money. How do they cheat and steal and enrich themselves and family? Let me count the ways: Conyers, Waters, Fattah, Gutierrez, Hastings, Jackson, Jefferson (freezer money)...

They are allowed to legally engage in insider trading, that should be all they need to get rich as Romney. How greedy must the be to just outright steal in addition to that advantage?

You're right.... that's stunning. In the old days - when it was a democrat who was corrupt it was mentioned in the paragraph third from the bottom... IF AT ALL...
