MUST SEE: Former Head of Federal Elections Says Cohen Payment IS NOT an In Kind Campaign Contribution
Conservative author and radio-TV host Mark Levin interviewed the former FEC Chairman on his show.
Professor Bradley Smith said the payment Cohen pled guilty to DO NOT qualify as campaign violations.
Last night Mark Levin interviewed a former FEC Chairman who explained why a hush money payment to Stormy Daniels cannot be considered an in kind contribution to the Trump campaign, thus violating campaign finance law.
Via The Right Scoop:
“When the FEC wrote the regulation that says what constitutes campaign expenditures and what constitutes personal use, it rejected specifically the idea that a campaign expenditure was anything related to a campaign, and instead says it has to be something that exists only because of the campaign and solely for that reason.”
Professor Bradley Smith wrote about this in the Wall Street Journal in April.
Shortly before the 2016 election, one of President Trump’s lawyers, Michael Cohen, arranged a $130,000 payment to the porn star in return for silence about a 2006 affair she claimed to have had with Mr. Trump. (Both the president and Mr. Cohen have denied the affair; Mr. Trump has said he did not know of the payment to Ms. Daniels until this February.)
Not satisfied with an old-fashioned sex scandal—perhaps because the president seems impervious to that—some want to turn this into a violation of campaign-finance law. Trevor Potter, a former member of the Federal Election Commission told “60 Minutes” the payment was “a $130,000 in-kind contribution by Cohen to the Trump campaign, which is about $126,500 above what he’s allowed to give.” The FBI raided Mr. Cohen’s office, home and hotel room Monday. They reportedly seized records related to the payment and are investigating possible violations of campaign-finance laws.
But let’s remember a basic principle of such laws: Not everything that might benefit a candidate is a campaign expense.
Campaign-finance law aims to prevent corruption. For this reason, the FEC has a longstanding ban on “personal use” of campaign funds. Such use would give campaign contributions a material value beyond helping to elect the candidate—the essence of a bribe.
FEC regulations explain that the campaign cannot pay expenses that would exist “irrespective” of the campaign, even if it might help win election. At the same time, obligations that would not exist “but for” the campaign must be paid from campaign funds.
If paying hush money is a campaign expense, a candidate would be required to make that payment with campaign funds. How ironic, given that using campaign funds as hush money was one of the articles of impeachment in the Watergate scandal, which gave rise to modern campaign-finance law.

Illegal immigrant charged with first-degree murder in Mollie Tibbetts’ death
Shortly after finding the body of Mollie Tibbetts, the Iowa college student who had been missing for more than a month, authorities charged an illegal immigrant with her murder, according to Fox News.
Tibbetts went missing on July 18 after going on a jog. Cristhian Bahena Rivera has been charged with first-degree murder in her death. Police say Rivera led them to her body.
“I can’t really speak to you about the motive,” said Rick Rahn, special agent in charge at the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation, according to CNN. “I can just tell you it seems that he followed her and seemed to be drawn to her on that particular day and for whatever reason he chose to abduct her.”
How did they catch him?
According to Fox News, they identified Rivera by way of surveillance footage that showed his car near the area Tibbetts took her jog and disappeared. Her body was found in a corn field, covered by corn stalks.
Rivera is now being held on a federal immigration detainer. Authorities believe the 24-year-old man had been living in rural Iowa for between four and seven years.
The suspect’s confession
Rivera claims he blacked out during an altercation with Tibbetts, and then woke up at an intersection in Poweshiek County, realizing he had put her in the trunk of his car.
The suspect said he took her out of the trunk, saw blood on the side of her head, and dumped the body off in the corn field, according to court records.
An autopsy will be performed on the body to determine when and how Tibbetts died. Rivera is currently being held on $1 million bail.
Long investigation concludes
The approximately 40 investigators that were working tirelessly to track Tibbetts down interviewed nearly 1,500 people in their investigation and received about 4,000 tips over the course of the 34 days between her disappearance and the discovery of her body.
“It never crossed our mind that she wouldn’t come home safe,” said Brooklyn, Iowa, city clerk Sheri Sharer.

I just used it, working for me
Working for me. Hmmm weird
Did you know that evil Monsanto’s former PR executive is now running the anti-gun group Moms Demand Action?
Moms Demand Action For Gun Sense in America is a pro-gun control group founded in 2012. The group is funded by former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and is part of his “Every Town for Gun Safety” initiative. Moms Demand Action thrives on their “grass roots” image of stay-at-home moms coming together to save the children, but appearances can be deceiving. As it turns out, the group’s leader, Shannon Watts, is not exactly who she says she is. Though she may be portrayed as a stay-at-home mom, Watts is a former PR executive for the world’s most notorious poison-pushing corporation, Monsanto.
It seems that the “grass roots” group is rooted in a more elite class than anyone wants to let on; it would ruin the narrative that everyday people want Big Government to take guns away from law-abiding citizens.
Even the Moms Demand Action page tries to paint a quaint picture of Watts, stating, “Moms Demand Action was founded by stay-at-home mom Shannon Watts on December 15, 2012, in response to the devastating shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School.” But a shocking report by Newsbusters tells a slightly different story about who Shannon Watts really is.
Who is Shannon Watts?
If you looked at Watts’ “About” page on the site, you’d see her described as a stay-at-home mom of five and “former communications executive” before Moms Demand Action was created. In an interview with NPR, Watts is described as an apolitical, laundry-folding mom who just wants to protect kids from harm — but as a PR executive for some of the nation’s most lucrative companies, Watts clearly knows how to play the public image card. Indeed, the history of Shannon Watts is far different than the story painted by the media.

Chinese government arrests wealthy “vaccine queen” who poisoned half a million children with faulty vaccines … Why aren’t we arresting vaccine poisoners in America?
Gao Junfang, known as China’s “Vaccine Queen,” once one of that country’s wealthiest citizens, was recently arrested along with 17 other high-level officials of the vaccine manufacturing company Changsheng Biotechnology. The company produced not one, but two batches of substandard vaccines and then circulated them to close to half a million Chinese children. According to the South China Morning Post, hundreds of thousands of Changsheng’s combination diphtheria, polio and typhoid (DPT) vaccines were found to be ineffective, while the test records for its rabies vaccine were confirmed to have been fabricated. The once booming company is now facing financial ruin.
About three quarters of the affected children have been given some form of treatment, according to the Chinese government, while plans have been put in place to do the same for the remaining kids. Unfortunately, the government cannot be relied upon to supply all the facts of the case, as it has been trying its best to keep a lid on the story, restricting and censoring news coverage of the events, and treating whistleblowers as “troublemakers” rather than heroes.
In the age of social media, however, it has proved impossible for officials to totally contain the story or hide the multiple posts from angry parents who have no idea whether their children may also have been given these dangerous vaccines.
Nonetheless, at least the Chinese government has arrested these vaccine fraudsters, unlike the Big Pharma vaccine tycoons who get away with killing and injuring innocent children on a daily basis in the United States.
