And she is very supportive of mail voting/harvesting. Trust her?

Michigan Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib was fined nearly $11,000 by the House Ethics Committee Friday after it found the freshman congresswoman violated campaign finance laws in 2018.

You gotta love the correlation-causation fallacy in this OP. :lol:

Let's see if the OP writer can spot it without my pointing it out to him. ;)

Meanwhile, on the other side of the aisle:

“Republican Rep. David Schweikert agreed to pay a $50,000 fine, accept a formal reprimand, and admit to 11 different violations of congressional rules and campaign finance laws in a deal with the bipartisan House Ethics Committee”

GOP congressman reprimanded for 11 ethics violations — including fake loan he made to his campaign – Alternet.org

Note the diff btx the case you cite and mine. As the article you cite states, Talib:

‘ran afoul of campaign finance laws as a matter of “bad timing,” determining Tlaib held no “ill intent.” And that “Representative Tlaib engaged in good faith efforts to comply with the relevant (law),” the committee report concluded.’

Schweikert violation were obviously purposeful, including his “lack of candor”, which is why he was reprimanded.

A huge diff.

WTF? Since Clinton pondered the definition of 'is'. Now Comey and Clinton have caused the 'no ill intent' . And now, the lack of candor which is what McCabe has been accused ... Its like the score of a game, nobody really cares.... Its about who won and who lost. In this case, Talib will go down in history for breaking campaign finance laws.

From the House Ethics Committee's conclusion: "The Committee also recognizes, however, that Representative Tlaib’s violation of the applicable restrictions was one of bad timing and not ill intent. Representative Tlaib engaged in good faith efforts to comply with the relevant FECA requirements. The Committee did not f ind that she sought to unjustly enrich herself by receiving the campaign funds at issue."

And it's anybody's guess what ballot harvesting has to do with this.

Nothing to see here. Run along. Donald Trump steels 1000 times that much every time he brings his entourage to one of his properties. Different law, same problem.

Donald J. Trump = 'Individual 1' in a felony court reading that his co-conspirator plead guilty to and was sentenced to jail. Talib = $11,000.00 Trump = $280,000.00 And he's under investigation for it by the Manhattan DA.

Yeah, quite a bit different from paying a porn star to keep quiet about a disgusting affair Trump had right after his wife had given birth to their son.
 
Pure scum is better than her, an ugly bitch with an ugly soul
 
she should have coerced a foreign country into bribing her while colluding with Russia for electoral advantage. if she could have done that while growing a penis to screw porn stars with while being white, she could have been the Republican nominee. wait, i forgot something. she would also need to say bad things about Mexicans while praising white supremacists.

come to think of it, i suppose that sounds like an impossible scenario for her.

Whataboutism ? lol
 
Man, that report DESTROYS her, showing her to be horribly corrupt!

“Representative Tlaib engaged in good faith efforts to comply with the relevant (law),” the committee report concluded. “Indeed, during her campaign, Representative Tlaib received a conservative amount of campaign funds, well below the legal threshold for the maximum amount of salary she was eligible to receive.”
 
Whataboutism ? lol

Actually you're right. As justified as the whataboutism is, the issue deserves to be addressed directly, not ignored simply by pointing out others are worse, as many posts did. See post 14.
 
You don't seem to be someone who should throw stones about an ugly soul.

Nah mine is gorgeous, I just know **** when I see it ... that’s a boomerang

I'm just saying don't show me no "holier than though" BS to denigrate your opposition when the same goes with your side of the aisle. In the case I gave, much worse. That is fact. In history, the Tlaib violation will be a blip on the screen and the "much worse" dude's violation will be a popcorn fart in the dry desert breeze.
