Podcast 107
The House Ethics Committee on Thursday released a trove of striking internal campaign communications sent in 2018 by Michigan Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib. The House Ethics Committee has been provided evidence that Talib may have violated federal law. This is the third time that a “Squad” member has been shown to violate the law, but nothing has happened. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez spent $800G off the books. Ilhan Omar did violate campaign finance rules and may have committed tax evasion. Why has nothing been done? Podcast 107 will discuss the Socialist Crimes of Tlaib, Ocasio-Cortez, and Omar and why the Democrats in the House are covering it up.
Socialist Crimes and Rashida Tlaib
Rashida Talib will face an upcoming Ethics Congressional Ethics committee probe. News of Tliab was not publicized this week because of the impeachment hearings. Impeachment hearings that accuse the President of bribery, in place of quid-pro-quo. Testimony yesterday destroyed that narrative of the president. Democrats are ignoring real crimes. This is an old Socialist tactic. Get rich on the backs of others, and cover it up.
The committee’s ongoing ethics probe into Tlaib, which the panel said on Thursday would be “expanded” based on a referral from the Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE). Texts and emails released by the Ethics Committee show Tlaib frantically contacting members of her staff for financial help.
In one April 2018 email offered as an exhibit by OCE, Tlaib wrote that she was “struggling financially right now” and was “sinking.” She continued: “So I was thinking the campaign could loan me money, but Ryan said that the committee could actually pay me. I was thinking of a one-time payment of $5k.”
Rashida Tlaib’s Request for More Money
In another email, on April 4, 2018, Tlaib wrote: “I am just not going to make it through the campaign without a stipend.” Tlaib continued: “With the loss of a second income to lean back on.” Talib text: “I am requesting $2,000 per two weeks but not exceeding $12,000.” Talibs demand for cash was to cover the cost of “car maintenance, childcare, and other necessities.” Tlaib ended the conversation with: “Please let me know if I can proceed.”
This is not the first time that Tlaib has asked for money. In August of that year, Tlaib texted her future chief of staff Ryan Anderson at 6:38 a.m. Her text read: “Sorry for the early text but do you think the campaign can still pay me a stipend until the general. Trying to get out of debt.”
So there you have it. The Socialist has time and time again shown that they do not really care about their donors. It is all about getting money for themselves. Honestly, I was unaware that it was the responsibility of donors to get a candidate out of debt. How much news coverage have you seen on this? Very little to none. Is the Democrat-controlled House covering for Tlaib? They have done this before.
