Flashback from Politico: obama campaign was fined for finance violations

Obama "lost" nearly ONE THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED campaign contributions totaling nearly TWO MILLION DOLLARS. His 2008 campaign was fined $375,000 by the Federal Election Commission for campaign reporting violations. More at POLITICO.

Cohen/Manafort news today ... mostly personal finance issues ... ZERO to do with the alleged collusion with Russia.

BTW, did your media tell you the following?

• Cohen pleaded guilty to a non-crime. Who said it is not a crime? Former FEC chairman Smith. Or watch Alan Dershowitz.
• Cohen pleaded guilty to being the principal. It means he is the one who did it (making the payments).
• The plea deal says "a candidate for federal office" who ran in 2016. Who ran? Twenty two major candidates!
• The plea deal doesn't name Trump. Who named Trump? Clinton-guy and Cohen-lawyer Lanny Davis.

This is where things are right now and we do not know where things will go from here, but please THINK and RESEARCH yourself! Don't let the rogues and rowdies dupe you.

Generally ... Imagine the can of worms that will be opened if politicians including those in Congress (both Republican and Democrat) were to be investigated for campaign finance law violations! Here's an opinion on campaign violations from a non-lawyer standpoint ...
