Democratic Lawmakers Need To Stand Up

Samantha Bee exposes Donald Trump’s Big Lie

You may recall during the previous election cycle, it was reported how a Super Pac supporting Donald Trump had allegedly solicited money from foreign donors, a clear violation of campaign finance law. At that time it was also reported how this act alone very well could have been illegal.

According to Salon, during an event in Las Vegas, PAC Co-Chairman, Mr. Eric Beach, attempted to raise funds for the Super Pac from “non-existent” Chinese donors. I say the donors were non-existent, because what Beach failed to realize is that these “donors” were actually reporters for The Telegraph; a London based news outlet.

In exchange for the raised money, Mr. Beach assured those he was soliciting funds from – two million dollars to be precise – that “they would be remembered,” IF they donated to Mr. Trump’s campaign and he were elected President. The Super Pac promised the “fake donor” – read undercover investigate reporter from The Telegraph – that “it would whisper into Mr. Trump’s ear,” on behalf of the donor.

Furthermore, Mr. Jesse Benton – a senior figure for the Super Pac – described how he recommended the two million dollars “be funneled through his public relations firm, Titan Strategies LLC, to avoid having to conceal the origin of the financing. He then describes how those resources can be allocated to two of the 501 (c) organizations he heads up.

What was not reported in the Salon piece however, is explosive video of Mr. Benton telling this supposed Chinese donor the following:

“We’re doing pretty well. But we don’t have anywhere near the funds that Hillary’s groups do. So we really have to be surgical.”

Now the BOMBSHELL: Mr. Benton continues,

“So we have a, you know, voter suppression campaign quite frankly targeting African-Americans, and sort of suburban Moms. Just bad stuff about Hillary; just trying to take their taste for her away.”

The reporter – supposed donor – states, “I see so they don’t turn out.”

Benton responds, “Yeah, just keep them….just to try to drop her turn-out two or three points.”

Remember: Super Pacs are not allowed to work with a specific candidate – including the candidate of their choice – after a specific time during the electoral cycle. They cannot plan together, orchestrate together or even communicate together: BY LAW!

So, the next time our new President wants to investigate “voter fraud” which is unsubstantiated and has been thoroughly debunked already, some Democratic lawmaker needs to stand up during Session and tell the entire House how the Democratic lawmakers welcome such an investigation as long as they begin right here, and include the Russian interference with our election!

It’s nothing more than a tool to restrict voting rights. That is all. It’s propaganda.

There are simply too many Blue Dogs and other rogues within the Democratic Party. They can never get together.

Michael,

How true! I should think being proactive would lead the Dems through the wilderness, however I see a whole lot of tough talk in Tweets, but little action taking place – with exceptions – on the floor.

The Dems spend too much time thinking about what to do as opposed to just doing it. In some cases this is not OK, but then again, in others, when a madman is in the White House, action is required.
