Obama Campaign Paid $972K to Law Firm Linked to Fusion GPS

[Common]

President Donald Trump slammed former President Barack Obama's campaign, citing a report that it paid nearly $1 million to a law firm linked to the company behind the controversial and unverified dossier alleging connections between Trump and Moscow.

According to a report by The Federalist (http://thefederalist.com/2017/10/29/obamas-campaign-gave-972000-law-firm-funneled-money-fusion-gps/), Obama's campaign organization paid $972,000 to Perkins Coie, the law firm that had funneled money to Fusion GPS, the company behind the dossier.
The Washington Post (https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/clinton-campaign-dnc-paid-for-research-that-led-to-russia-dossier/2017/10/24/226fabf0-b8e4-11e7-a908-a3470754bbb9_story.html?utm_term=.2f45b7dbcfdd) had reported that Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee helped fund the research that resulted in the dossier. A lawyer from Perkins Coie represented the Clinton campaign and the DNC and retained Fusion GP to conduct the research, The Post said.

But a Federal Election Commission report reveals that Obama For America, paid nearly $800,000 to Perkins Coie in 2016 for "legal services," The Federalist reported. Another $174,725 was paid by OFA to the law firm in 2017.
The Federalist noted the timing of the payments to the law firm raise questions where the OFA money was eventually winding up. OFA was responsible for Obama's successful 2012 re-election campaign. It reorganized after the 2016 election and planned to use its resources to oppose Trump, the Federalist said.

Hillary is mentioned. Hillary is always mentioned by deplorables.
The walls are crashing down around his supporters while building the Mexican wall is all but a fallacy.
It doesn't matter what the subject of a thread is as Trump will end up as part of it.
Jail him. He should be in with gen pop. See if he can tweet his way out of that.

First Trump needs to charged and convicted of committing a crime. Plus Hillary Clinton isn't part of this specific element of the corruption of the Obama administration.


Of course, Obama knew nothing about this. He had a firm grasp on everything except the underhanded stuff going on, right?

Are you awake enough to understand that no US President has, or ever will be "jailed"? Wake up from your dream.

Oh..."it doesn't matter" that a sitting US POTUS paid for a lawyer to pay a highly dubious company to pay a FOREIGN spy to pay the Russian government to come up with crap to damage campaign, and then later, the duly-elected, incoming President and his administration.

And then use that completely unverified dossier of paid-for , contrived lies to illegally seek and obtain FISA warrants to spy on political enemies, IE.: the duly elected POTUS, during and AFTER his successful campaign.

Ask the sleazocrats and their fellow scum in the Fake News media; they keep insisting that "it doesn't matter"....

It's ONLY BLATANT SEDITION, that's all....
