Accounts of financial deception
at the Republican National Committee stretch from a scandal involving $2,000
spent at a bondage strip club to a possible illegal
fundraising ploy to circumvent federal restrictions on campaign finance.
Back in 2009 RNC Chairman
Michael Steele contrived a scheme with the Michigan Republican Party to quickly
turn more than half a million dollars from Michigan donors intended for the RNC
back over to the state party. This apparently a ruse devised to artificially increase
the RNC's fundraising totals for 2009, according to a report from the Daily Caller.
Documentation by the
Federal Election Commission verifies the donations to the RNC, as well as
the money that came right back to the Michigan Republican Party.
A former official with
the RNC said the motivation for such a deal was probably to allow individuals
to donate more than the $10,000 federal limit, because Michigan state law
allows unlimited campaign contributions for individuals.
The Republicans destroy the US economy from 2000 to 2008, the RNC plots scams to raise money, and their constituents get their marching orders from Fox (the media outlet that hates middle-class Americans).
