Cori Bush under Justice Department investigation over alleged misuse of security funds

[seafoam1 3,397]

She needs security. Oh...and money... You don't. 

 

Captal punishment should be on the table. 

 

 

The Justice Department is investigating "Squad" member Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., over the alleged misuse of government funds intended to pay for her security, two sources tell Fox News.

The probe is related to allegations of federal security money being spent improperly, the sources said.

A subpoena announcement was read on the House floor Monday, and sources said it was related to the investigation into Bush.

The Justice Department declined to comment. 

Responding to Fox News Digital, Bush's office provided a statement confirming the "Department of Justice is reviewing my campaign’s spending on security services." 

The congresswoman blamed "right-wing organizations" for the DOJ probe, as well as other investigations into the matter by the Federal Election Commission and the House Committee on Ethics. "I have not used any federal tax dollars for personal security services. Any reporting that I have used federal funds for personal security is simply false," she said in part. 

One of those watchdog groups, the Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT), reacted to news of the Justice Department probe and defended having filed an official complaint with the FEC in 2023 regarding the details of repeated payments Bush made to a man who is now her current husband.

"In her own FEC filings the payments were initially characterized as being for 'security.' Among the many troubling facts involved that we strongly felt justified an investigation were her close personal relationship, her large payments to others for the same services at the same time, and that her husband reportedly didn’t have a license to provide those services," FACT executive director Kendra Arnold said in a statement obtained by Fox News Digital.

Fat Fanni, Ohmar, this one. Seems to be a trend. At least Pelosi just gives her husband insider info.

Weird how self-proclaimed Communists/Marxists/Socialists always end up being the most corrupt and taking all the money for their own personal gain.

If only we had history to learn from or we had people telling us these types of people were like that.

StL had a great representative, Democrat Lacy Clay.  He wasn't liberal enough and didn't do enough for BLM apparently (Clay is black btw) and lost to Cori Bush in the primary. Good for you stl.

[cmh6476 1,110]

Also I used to be security for a Congressman.   Just me and him and a lot of windshield time in my early 20s.    

Back in the good old days when members of congress didn't need security, just poorly paid staffers

Well, Cori Bush thinks she deserves it. 

"They would rather I die?" 

My answer.....yes.

I love how when the Justice Department is after someone on the left, you guys discuss it as if it’s legitimate news (which it is). But whenever they’re after somebody on the right (especially Trump) it’s all part of an evil plot.

when democrats have plans to impeach before he even took office, thats what happens, when they use a fake dossier to try and RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA thats what happens.

if nothing happened during his administration and the DOJ came up with something to investigate now, people wouldn't bat an eye

Look y’all I’m just being honest.  Ugly and dumb normally doesn’t get one far.  This is just Darwin doing his thang.

1. Yeah a few talked about impeaching Trump. On Biden’s first day in office, Marjorie Taylor Greene introduced Articles of Impeachment against Biden. None of this has anything to do with the Justice Department. 

2. The Justice Department didn’t use any fake dossier. Trump’s Attorney General Jeff Sessions, whom Trump appointed, investigated Trump at the behest of Republicans in Congress after Trump fired James Comey and lied about it. The Russia investigation that followed revealed Trump obstructing justice and possible collusion. 
 

All of this was justified, none of this was fake. Stop drinking Trump’s koolaid.

So. Trump obstructed Justice, but they let him slide on that one, an actual crime.

They certainly did. Read the Mueller report, he obstructed justice on at least 10 occasions as detailed in that report.

But the special councel assigned to investigate for crimes decided not to charge him, after discovering a crime, 10x.  Ok, why? 

[RLLD 4,275]

The DOJ investigating Democrats......ok, I am down.....I take this as progress.  

[Hardcore troubadour 15,908]

Defund the blue, money for my Boo

The new husband is the true victim in this tale. He’s pretty much forced to marry her.  Imagine being married to this woman?  I’d rather do time in J6 Gulag.

I'm.just answering her question.

Yes, I would rather her die than defunding the police.
