Valerie Plame raises nearly $450K for congressional bid last quarter
The Hill ^ | 10/14/19 | Rachel Frazin

Former CIA operative Valerie Plame, who has launched a Democratic run for Congress in New Mexico, raised nearly $450,000 last quarter, nearly double her total from the previous filing period.

Plame's campaign said in a Monday statement that it raised $446,749 between July 1 and Sept. 30 from more than 16,600 individual donors. The average donation was $26.87.

The campaign has raised a total of more than $683,000 since Plame announced she was running for Congress in May.

“It’s encouraging to see all the thousands of supporters who want to be a part of this team and agree with our message," Plame said in the statement. "I’m proud that we are doing this by sticking to our progressive values like refusing corporate PAC money and with an average contribution of less than $27.”

"Huh... an ex-CIA spook running for congress as a Democrat."

Don't forget the RINOS such as Bush.

I am familiar with Santa Fe. I grew up in Los Alamos... I just have a hard time seeing how far my old home state has fallen.

A name that will completely unnerve Plame: Sid Blumenthal. Here's how Valerie Plame, hubby Joe Wilson,
tapped into millions of State Dept tax dollars w/ help from their pals, Sidney Blumenthal.......and Secy Hillary.

============================

BACKSTORY Sid Blumenthal was (is) the conniving Clintons' bagman---a $325,000 employee of the Clinton Foundation, hired to (gag) promote Clinton's presidential legacy. On the side, Sid promoted dubious foreign deals and schemes in which he had a financial interest many of them predicated on the fall of Libya. Blumenthal was ambidextrous---emailing Libya foreign policy messages w/ one hand....his other hand firmly in the State Dept cookie jar.

In one (leaked) confidential e-mail to Clinton, Blumenthal was clearly colluding w/ onetime Amb Joe Wilson (Valerie's late husband) to score a bundle.

GAME ON Amb Wilson pumped himself as a 'director' of Symbion Power---an outfit seeking millions of dollars in contracts from an obscure government agency chaired by Hillary....the Millennium Challenge Corp (MCC)....a notorious slush fund. In September 2010, Hillary order In September 2010, Hillary ordered MCC to award Symbion $47 million tax dollars for (cough) 'power projects in Tanzania.'

JUST WONDERING ......how much of the $47 million tax dollars got to Tanzania after the players divvied it up among Blumenthal, Wilson, the Clintons, Obama?.........

===========================================

FREEPER ACTION PROJECT--DO THIS NOW: demand the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) books be opened. We demand to know the financial details and the scope and dimension of individuals connected to these outrageous State Dept giveaways.........govt parasites like Blumenthal, Plame and her husband pocketing zillions at taxpayers' expense.

LAUGH BREAK Millinium Challenge is also the quasi govt agency Obama took 100 million tax dollars to give to Michelle to give to Morocco "to teach Muslim girls." The 100 million is to be (cough) held by the Obama Foundation and doled out "when needed." (cue laugh machine here)

Here is a fair warning to ALL AMERICANS!

When LIEberals are elected to public office, they LIE TO, CHEAT AND STEAL FROM the Citizenry!

LIEberals routinely violate the law and ignore the US Constitution!

TAXMAN: “A vote for ANY LIEberal, whether it be in a local, state or federal election, is a vote against America!”

POTUS: “A vote for any Democrat in 2020 is a vote for the rise of radical socialism and the destruction of the American dream!”

TAXMAN: “America cannot survive a LIEberal victory in 2020!”
