Sho Nuff 719 Posted June 7, 2017 Slush funds again an unfounded claim. The receiving groups included organizations that provide housing counseling, foreclosure prevention and community redevelopment assistance. Gibson Guitar Corp. also had to contribute to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation to resolve a criminal investigation into allegations it illegally imported exotic wood. The policy seemed to be todo things like that (from your own article). That said...it's good to end this practice as the policy allowed too much room for abuse...and good to now give it to victims (I disagree with back to the Treasury dept as that is subject to the same possibility of abuse as the policy that is ending).

Nothing I said was spin.. And clearly stated I didn't like how there was even the potential for abuse. But don't give me some BS conservative voice site as proof of anything. Have anything to actually link that poster to the Council mentioned? Or to the gang probably? If the Council...no I wouldn't support that. Yes...anything organizations getting money from that should have been vetted. Hell...even when I'm basically in agreement you are an . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baker Boy 1,485 Posted October 26, 2017 email reveals Obama DOJ blocked conservative groups from settlement funds While Eric Holder was U.S. attorney general, the Justice Department allowed prosecutors to strike agreements compelling big companies to give money to outside groups not connected to their cases to meet settlement burdens. Republican lawmakers long have decried those payments as a slush fund that boosted liberal groups, and the Trump DOJ ended the practice earlier this year. But internal Justice Department emails released Tuesday by Goodlatte indicated that not only were officials involved in determining what organizations would get the money, but also Justice Department officials may have intervened to make sure the settlements didnt go to conservative groups. http://www.foxnews.c...maker-says.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
