Obama Funneled Billions Of Taxpayer $$ To Pet Leftist Groups and Nobody Cares

Obama's DOJ Funneled Billions to Pet Leftist Political Organizations
Fox News broke the story yesterday that Obama and his DOJ were funneling billions of dollars to leftist political organizations. Is anybody talking about this? Nope. Instead everything is focused on Sessions. This board is a perfect example. How many Sessions threads are on page 1. The thread on this subject barely made one page and is buried way back. This needs to be front and center. Hannity, Tucker, Rush, et al need to stop talking about Russians and talk about this crap. This is legitimately Watergate level corruption.
Remember what eventually brought Nixon down was his illegal use of the CIA to spy on the FBI and to funnel hush money to the Plumbers.
Using a government agency improperly is illegal. Lynch and Holder are garden variety thugs and get a pass while Sessions is getting worked over for doing his job. It's just damned crazy.

Only because they have a allied press.

That's my point - traditional "right" media outlets have been manipulated into following the mainstream media's lead. They need to get their heads out of their asses and change the narrative.

He should have directed the money into his own personal bank account, Republicans are cool with that now.

Yea, I've never understood the media blaming others for putting stuff in the news. Do they not control their own story? Can they not go off the beaten path and cover what they want? Must they all be in lock-step with what is covered?

Exactly. And again another thread on this topic is ignored. Maybe I should change the title.

Which law did they break?

A political figure cannot use an arm of the government for personal or political party gain. I can't cite you the exact legal code, but read the article and then brush up on your Watergate.
Or in short, do you even Watergate, bro??

Just brought this same point up in the Democrats destroying themselves in the other thread title.
Why can't someone with balls go after these bastards?

So you don't think any law would be broken by slush fund, some of which is tax payer monies, being funneled to activists groups that support your leftwing party ideals?
Would Trump get a pass when he completes his term if another slush fund was secretly routed to prolife organizations, pro law enforcement groups or other conservative orgs?
It is so difficult to discuss things with any level of sanity with a leftist democrat. When younger we just said that you need to take your rose colored glasses off. Today, it has just gone so far past that, it has become a challenge for how such people can even be Americans. Why don't you just pack up and move to Europe or the Mideast?

I listened to a lot of Rush, some Hannity, some Laura Ingraham (had a lot of windshield time today) The Five, watched all of Tucker and did not hear this mentioned one time. They were all stepping right in line and carrying the mainstream media's water. All I heard was Sessions, Russians, Russians, Russians, Seessions.
It's aggravating as hell.
Was ready for a nap, but now I'm "shook and woke".

Would you expect the media that's in Obama's pocket to report anything that made him look bad, and that also aids their goals!

Okay, I give up, Obama is clean as a whistle, as was Nixon. Now look the law up on your own you lazy arse or go to bed.

If it was already illegal why does the Republican Congress feel the need to pass a law making it illegal? Seems a bit redundant wouldn't you say?

Just like clockwork, knew it was coming, so here you go to make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
"I" am not a legal council, attorney and know just enough law to make me look ridiculous. Interpreted that means I can't state statute, verse or otherwise.
But to help you with the concept of understanding this I'll give you an analogy of the "wrongness" and we'll just forget the legality part.
Here you go. Your mom is treasurer for a church let's say and there is a fund that is derived from monies found on the grounds, parking lot or in the pews. So the church leadership agrees to just call this the church "recovery fund". Now, the pastor and some of his minions are relieved of command and he gives instructions to minions to do various things prior to their leaving. Part of this story might also involve the minions now knowing the pastor for a good period of time know his wishes pretty well. So with a wink and a nod, your mom delivers 1/3 of the money to the "daughters of the confederacy", 1/3 to "KKK moms in need" and 1/3 to the pastor's favorite pastime, "Kileen's Whore House" in N.O.
Can you site which laws were broken so that I would know where to look?

Fines paid to the government is government revenue. They need an appropriation from Congress to disburse it.

Bottom line - nobody in their right mind believes any President has the right to use taxpayer money to get himself and members of his party elected. I imagine there are 100's of red-letter campaign finance laws that cover this. Again, look it up yourself, I don't need to, because I am convinced.
ETA oh and thank you for helping me keep this thread towards the top of the first page - I was discouraged that another thread on this subject went ignored. People need to see this - thank you!!!
