Hillary Clinton's Campaign Implicated In $84 Million Campaign Finance Scandal
h/t Instapundit
The attempt to turn the Stormy Daniels unpleasantness into a campaign finance violation ‐ a weak attempt as it tuns out ‐ is starting to come into focus as a new Federal Elections Commission (FEC) complaint filed by The Committee to Defend the President alleges the Hillary Victory Fund (HVF) was "us[ing] state chapters as straw men to circumvent campaign donation limits and launder(ing) the money back to her campaign."

...HVF solicited six-figure donations from major donors, including Calvin Klein and "Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane, and routed them through state parties en route to the Clinton campaign. Roughly $84 million may have been laundered in what might be the single largest campaign finance scandal in U.S. history.

...On top of that, six-figure donations either never actually passed through state party accounts or were never actually under state party control, which adds false FEC reporting by HVF, state parties, and the DNC to the laundry list.

...Finally, as Donna Brazile and others admitted, the DNC placed the funds under the Clinton campaign’s direct control, a massive breach of campaign finance law that ties the conspiracy together.

Democratic donors, knowing the funds would end up with Clinton’s campaign, wrote six-figure checks to influence the election ‐ 100 times larger than allowed.
