McAuliffe (D candidate for VA Guv) took $350k sleasy foreign source
[WashingtonFreeBeacon] A government watchdog group hit Terry McAuliffe with a campaign finance complaint on Friday over a $350,000 donation he received from a foreign-owned company linked to an overseas money laundering probe, according to a copy of the filing obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
Terry probably figured he could hide this until after the election and he was almost right.
But how many votes were already mailed in before this news broke?

#1 answer to question in blue

as of yesterday am; 1.1 million of expected 5.9 million votes have already been received by Sec of State; probably another few hundred thousand are in the mail

also this info will likely be buried on on the bottom of page 20 or so in the WaPo tomorrow and most voters won't see it

#2 McAuliffe is the poster child for the most corrupt era in modern US history. This Clinton bagman helped them and himself to 9-figure fortunes by selling access for 30 years.

McAuliffe began his career in the early 90s by looting labor unions' pension funds in bogus Florida real estate deals. He's been selling access steadily ever since, and also pocketed tens of millions from sweetheart deals allowing him to invest at a steep discount in shit companies (Global Crossing, "GreenTech Automotive" etc) which then go on to defraud federal and state government entities -- on the way to huge valuations before they inevitably crash. McAuliffe always gets out right at the peak: four months before Global Crossing crashed and burned, McAuliffe cashed out $18 million (on an original $100k sweetheart investment).

This f--ker has collected millions from Chinese spies, corrupt US executives, scam artists of all stripes.

McAuliffe's simian smile will no doubt be one of those that grace the profiles on our Kakocracy's version of Mt Rushmore.
