The Federal Election Commission (FEC) fined Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene $12,000 (R-Ga.) for alleged illegal PAC fundraising, according to a recently-published conciliation agreement.
The FEC said Greene violated Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 (FECA), for “soliciting non-federal” funds by reposting an advertisement she appeared in on her official Greene for Congress social media accounts. The advertisement was for political action committee (PAC) “Stop Socialism Now PAC.”
The PAC posted the advertisement on its website, YouTube and social media feeds in December 2020. The video featured Greene speaking about the 2021 Senate runoff elections in her home state, which eventually resulted in the election of Democratic Sens. Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff to their current seats, according to the conciliation agreement.
idk it might hurt to think at all
It’s nice to think she’s stupid, but remember: Hanlon’s Razor is inverted when money is involved. She’s not stupid, she knows what she’s doing; what she’s doing is successfully grifting rightwingers, consequences be damned
Consequences? This fine has already been accounted for on the balance sheet
The constant word salad and obvious gaffs are evidence she’s a moron. The people who are putting her out there, however, are exactly what you say.
Think? She’s not capable of such socialist things.
