The 2016 Democratic presidential primary was one of the most contentious in recent history.
Presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s win against upstart Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders was full of controversy — and new reports show it was dirtier than first believed.
Sanders supporters claim the Clinton campaign used a mountain of dirty tricks to win — everything from backroom establishment deals to widespread accusations of election fraud.
A shocking new report says they can add dirty campaign money to that pile.
“A super-PAC backing Hillary Clinton has accepted $200,000 in donations from a company holding multiple contracts with the federal government — despite a ban on such contributions,” The Hill reported Wednesday.
The revelation came from a review of contributions, which found that the Suffolk Construction Company, Inc. in Boston made two apparently illegal donations of $100,000 to Priorities USA, a political super-PAC which used the money to help Clinton throughout the primary.
The donations prove Sanders supporters right: the Clinton campaign was directly benefiting from unlawful donations.
According to data gained from USASpending.gov, Suffolk — a multi-billion dollar construction company — had nearly a million dollars worth of government contracts at the time of the donations, which legally barred it from making political contributions.
“The donations from Suffolk highlight how a 70-year-old campaign finance law meant to prevent pay-to-play deals between public officials and companies making money from the government is often ignored by those making the donations and those on the receiving end,” according to The Hill.
This cozy relationship between the Democratic establishment and big business has left many Sanders supporters bitter at the Clinton campaign — and it’s costing Clinton big time.
Recently released polls from both the University of Texas / Texas Politics Project and Bloomberg Politics found that approximately fifty-percent of former Sanders voters are refusing to back Clinton heading into the general election, sabotaging Clinton’s chances against Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
What was once a runaway lead for the Democrats has narrowed considerably in recent days between the two — CNBC called the Trump vs. Clinton match-up “too close to call” on Wednesday, citing a Quinnipiac University poll that shows the two in a virtual dead heat.
A large portion of Clinton’s struggles have to do with voters finding her untrustworthy.
This newest revelation of her campaign’s dirty money donation problem can only hurt the former secretary of state’s already poor reputation.

The hole keep getting deeper and deeper yet nothing is done about it.
that is because of the media and the crooked democrats don,t care about what is right and what is truth Texan you know
a liberal is a person too broadminded to take. their own side in a quarrel.
If you could read an article by Wm. J. Bennett of Morning in America called “What I See Happening In a Trump Presidency” it would be explained clearly. He says “They will kill him before they let him be president. Big government, big business and big media all are part of the “good old boys” club. All are beholden to big money donors, all are owned by big money.” This is way we get no action on anything from either party!
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT SLANT ON THIS ISSUE AND THE ANSWER IS MUCH EASIER THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE??? READ the well written book about what FAITH can do??? A young man who learned later in life that the [ ONE TRUE GOD ] was looking out for him from very early in life due to his receiving the TEACHINGS of JESUS and believing his doctrines??? Firstly to seek the TRUTH and you will find the answers to all your questions??? Treat others as you would like to be treated by them and you will not be bound by the obligations of SINS created by the Church to relieve you of your wealth??? Do NOT judge others lest you wish to be judged by the GOD that made them according to his design??? Remember that Jesus warned,” Vengeance is Mine, I will repay saith the Lord “??? Typos are the fault of defective replacement keyboards,NOT a persons inability to spell correctly??? Using all capitals is due to a persons failing eyesight, so don’t be so quickly to judge their use of Capitals??? The title of the book is [ How GOD Found ME ] with a picture of the young man on the cover at age 9 yrs when GOD first rewarded the person who caused him physical and emotional STRESS according to HIS choice of the reward??? In this event GOD’s choice was to send him to his FINAL REWARD within two months of the offense, if you get my meaning??? More than one hundred offenders at this time have gone to their FINAL REWARD??? That means that if I am offended by the actions of the Senate,the entire Senate could be replaced within two months??? I only have to truly FORGIVE all of those who have taken unfavorable actions to cause me and ALL TRUE Americans unreasonable GRIEF and DISTRESS and you can do the SAME??? Read the book and see for yourself??? There is something for everyone and is most enjoyable as reported by those who have already read it???
Don’t blame poor eyesight on your use of all caps. More likely it is an insane desire to preach your boring, and ‘shove it down others throats’, opinion. Put the hammer and nails away and speak softly and someone might be interested in your sermon. But don’t hold your breath.
Unsolicited car sales-men’s ads and clumsy backyard preachers sermons are never interesting.
I am a Christian, and even I find your bullchit sermon boring and intrusive.
The good lord isn’t gonna help this Raggety Azzed old Hag to suddenly become a person with morals and do the right thing for the American citizens….she’s on the other side of the fence.
William what the heck R U talking about???What’s up with the uppercases all about. Boring comment I’m a Christian
Whatever the reason for your use of all caps, I find it hard to read and usually end up with a headache. I skip over messages that use all caps.
Hang in their Hillary you will soon hang yourself and we can be rid of you for good. And Bill Clinton the wife cheater but then Hillary is not much to cheat on.
THE MONEY BY ANY THING YOU WANT THAT THE CLINTON?
Another scandal? Who is surprised?
You have to know that the fix is in, and that Teflon Donna and her partner in crime, that slickest of Willy’s, will never be held responsible for anything they’ve ever done.
Trump is no better , although differently so.
The ONLY reason I’ll vote for Trump is because, of the two, I consider Killery to be the more dangerous.
What a shame neither party could come up with a better candidate than these two. America, in my opinion, is toast regardless of which of the two winds up being elected.
WHAT DO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THINK. I THINK SHE IS A CROCK AND WILL BE A CROCK EVEN IF SHE IS THE W.H. I HOPE SHE WILL NOT BE THERE FOR THE GOOD OF AMERICA AND THE INTERNS.
Both the “Wicked Witch of the East” and her Best Dud President O’bozo need to be tried for treason.
Do people think for one second that she will not implement those same dirty tricks in the general election??? Especially voter fraud??? This woman will do anything to become president; lie, cheat, steal, and as her past dictates even murder!!! She has no values unless they pertain to herself. And Fakeahountas is just as bad as Hitlery!!!
Absolutely nothing will be done there will be no indictment local or federal she is protected beyond what any of us can imagine the dema want her in the whitehouse so bad because she has a price tag and is going to be there puppet they don’t care who they just need a puppet . And they will do whatever to get he in even murder the guy (forgot name off hand) was scheduled to testify against her suddenly died first heart attack them a weight lifting accident some one reported strangulation any one who stands up to her comes up dead
Yeah, it’s pretty obvious that the Democrat organization’s chosen can get away with whatever, and their media plays blind, deaf and dumb. Guess they’re afraid they’ll be punished, or killed if they don’t obey orders from headquarters.
Well said Bluemoon! they ARE two peas in a pod! I just wish they would STOP putting Hillary’s mug on all the tabloids. She is NOT good looking at all and I cringe every time I see her. Electing these two WILL bring the US to a new low! GO TRUMP!
She has an uncanny resemblance to MISS PIGGY……..don’t ya think??
Donald Trump is a SAINT when compared to this MANIAC named Hill-Hog or Miss Piggy….whichever you prefer to call her is fine. She is absolutely sickening.
She will rename our country so as not to offend our invaders. She will hide in the whitehouse behind gun toting guards while terrorists run rampid in our streets killing all infidels. She will destroy us faster than obama did.
I agree totally! She has to be stopped at all costs!
Bluemoon love and sooooooooooo agree with your comment!!!!! Why can’t the American people who are supporting her see her for who she is she will sell or has sold herself to the Devil to be the next President.

Now you see how boring repetition is?
Get some new material. You are being obnoxious.
I agree with you!
I agree with John G
I agree! Obama needs to be tried for obstructing justice with regards to the Clinton email scandal & for his ties to supporting Radical Islamic Terrorists. Clinton for her dirty money campaigns taking money from Arab nations who kill gays and are anti women where they have no rights except where they are given to them by men. Both for their lies about the Benghazi video saying it was responsible for the attack on the US Embassy., Clinton for denying the hundreds of requests for additional security and support. They both knew about the confidential emails on a unsecured private server. Both were sent emails back and forth not about her wedding dress.
Hillary cannot be trusted with our country. Nor can our Muslim president. They both need to go to prison. Butthe fact that no one really does anything about her shows there is a big cover up going on between them. Just like with Bill’s sex abuses while our President were covered up, lied about and later when enough pressure was put on them he finally confessed. But did he get indicted? No. Payoffs for priveledges? Threats to workers in the White House if the truth really came out. Donations to the Clinton Foundation to help Clinton’s campaign? Despite all the truth that is coming out about Bill & Hillary, she feels 100% she won’t get indicted and that she has done nothing illegal. When will this corruption end and when will those who can do something about it DO Something about it!?
Money is the Mother’s milk of politics.
Agree, but the fix is in, so that will never happen. Because the Imam in chief has replaced all WWII generals, and installed his own picks, there have been rumors he may not leave office once his term is over. Others say he may just try to pull off a coup, rather than leave office. Those ideas seemed paranoid and whacked when I first heard them, but, given his recent actions, they don’t seem to be so far out of the realm of possibility. As we all know, power corrupts. How much? We may soon see.
EVERYTHING about this “witch” and the whole demoSCUM party is dirty. They are a disgrace to even our political system which is as low as it can possibly get. From the top to the bottom, from obozo down to the demoSCUM floor sweeper are dirtier than any crime family or organization in our history.
Hillary who doesn’t know the words to the song,” JESUS LOVES ME ” AND DOESN’T HAVE A TALKING BIBLE,RIGHT??? That indicates that she must be a CLOSET MUSLIM whose teachings are clearly VIOLENT ACTIONS like have been shown here at a TRUMP RALLY since her LIES haven’t had the effect she had hoped for,RIGHT,???Hillery makes the [ WICKED WITCH OF THE WEST] from the story, [ THE WIZARD OF OZ ] Look like a Sunday School Teacher??? Anyone who believes HER LIES would hand over their wallets to the first person who offered to sell them the Brooklyn Bridge, the Washington Monument, or Mount Rushmore??? G ot IT??? Something for Nothing??? Yeah, RIGHT??? LIKE THE MANSION SHE LIVES IN FOR FREE at the expense of New York taxpayers and gets paid rent on the guest house provided for the Secret Service assigned to protect her??? Or did you ALL, FORGET THAT ??? She has been teaching Obama since he took office 7 years ago,RIGHT??? What else could you expect???
Politics. The art of governing mankind by deceiving them.
It has been rumored, recently, that the Clintons
do have ties to organized
crime. That would certainly explain the trail of dead bodies they have left in their wake since beginning their political careers. The problem is this: You can’t say it unless you can prove it. You can only suggest what seems to be true, but you cannot make unsubstantiated accusations.
There’s your bottom line, buddy boy; that’s the answer to the “Why?” you asked earlier. This is still America, no matter how flawed. The “Why?” I’d like to ask you is why you asked the question in the first place!! Lawyers are generally pretty smart, and slick beats smart a lot of the time. That’s why, if you haven’t
figured that out, yet. Also: No proof? No crime. Period.
Come-on B Sander backers!!!??? Get on the TRUMP wagon and lets put this HillYCROOK Away FOR GOOD!!!!!!!…..VOTE TRUMP!!!!!!!
hopefully cheats do not prosper
Apparently the American people wants a crook in the White House.
Bruce, you’re right. If that damned POS white trash B@&CH Hitlery Killery ROTTON Ayatollah Khoemeni Clinton is elected our country’s
next Figurehead, our country will be finished and completely destroyed. The damned POS white trash Clinton’s can do whatever they damned well please and get away with it. The dumb, stupid, idiot, ignorant, lunkheads that vote for them, and especially the whinny, cry baby, coddled, spoiled brat NON VOTERS who constantly complain in public, point their fingers at how corrupt the politicians are, but yet have never, ever voted and never will vote, but yet the NON VOTERS are the biggest bunch of complainers and do 98% of the complaining
98% of the time in public. All NON VOTERS in all 50 states, the 4 U.S.Territories & the nations capital can register & vote if they want to.
If every single NON VOTER did that, and they registered for the Libertarian, Green, Constitution, Americn parties, ere would be more people in those parties running for office, and they would have a much better chance of getting elected, most important of all-the NON VOTERS who become voters will truly deserve the right to the freedom of speech. Not voting only benefits people like Bill & Hitlery Killery ROTTON Ayatollah Khoemeni Clinton and other crooked corrupt politicians.
What the some of the american people want is a free ride. The demos philosophy is like that of Robin Hood’s, steal from the rich and give to the poor. Not make them go out and earn it. And when people see that it makes them want to go out and get freebies for themselves too. After all, “they don’t have to work, why should I?” is unfortunately what is getting them elected. And as a result, this country is going down the tubes fast.
We elected Nixon/Agnew, didn’t we? If you don’t sell your soul to corporate America, you have absolutely no chance of becoming POTUS. Simple fact of life.
A super-PAC backing Hillary Clinton has accepted $200,000 in donations from a company holding multiple contracts with the federal government — despite a ban on such contributions,” The Hill reported Wednesday.
Hillary is a corrupt pig!! What a joke she is then she says the internet has caused her the BAD reputation she is receiving. Not her incompetence and lies.
Hillary said don’t buy a single vote more than necessary. I don’ want to pay for a landslide.
My question is, are they demanding that her campaign pay it back? You can talk the talk, but need to walk the walk otherwise why tell the story. This infuriates me.
This isn’t news. Everything this low life is involved in is crooked. Weather stealing money, lies, stealing the vote or killing people she was supposed to protect is done to benefit her and her alone. Right down to which clothes wouldn’t offend the scum that killed 4 great people. Screw these heroes because I can’t look bad. She has no platform to run on so she has to enlist another fake that is as crooked as her buy the name of Warren. This woman will only make America look like a loser to the world but will finish off what Obummer started. If you trust facts and not lies this scum isn’t who we need in office.
Prison is the place for Hillary and William Jefferson Clinton.
Everyone should know by now She is a “compulsive, pathological and serial liar” that must be exposed, “NOW”
She needs the ultimate in KARMA……..a humiliating landslide victory for Mr. Donald J. Trump as the peoples choice to fix the mess that she and the phony in the Whitehouse purposefully made to control our country.
Time to put her in the hole and pour all the dirt on top.
This post may not have anything to do with this article but is being included to inform people of how they are being used by the current Government Administration of Barack Obama supported by Hillary Clinton.
I think all people should read the item below and in particular if you are an Obama or Clinton supporter.
After you read this ask yourself if you are a Useful Idiot and are being manipulated by these people
who will lead you to your own destruction. If the answer is YES its not too late to change.
Beware the Useful Idiots
submitted by Garret Geer
Recall that Hillary did her college thesis on his writings and Obama writes about him in his books.
Saul Alinsky died about 43 years ago, but his writings influenced those in political control of our nation today.
Died: June 12, 1972, Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA
Education: University of Chicago
Spouse: Irene Alinsky
Books: Rules for Radicals, Reveille for Radicals
Anyone out there think that this stuff isn’t happening today in the U.S.?
All eight rules are currently in play.
How to create a social state by Saul Alinsky:
There are eight levels of control that must be obtained before you are able to create a social state. The first is the most important.
1) Healthcare – Control healthcare and you control the people.
2) Poverty – Increase the Poverty level as high as possible; poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live.
3) Debt – Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty.
4) Gun Control– Remove the ability to defend themselves from the government. That way you are able to create a police state.
5) Welfare – Take control of every aspect of their lives (Food, Housing, and Income).
6) Education – Take control of what people read and listen to – take control of what children learn in school.
7) Religion – Remove the belief in the God from the government and schools.
8) Class Warfare – Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. This will cause more discontent, and it will be easier to take (tax) the wealthy with the support of the poor.
Does any of this sound like what is happening to the United States?
Alinsky merely simplified Vladimir Lenin’s original scheme for world conquest by communism, under Russian rule. Stalin described his converts as “Useful Idiots.”
The Useful Idiots have destroyed every nation in which they have seized power and control. It is presently happening at an alarming rate in the U.S.
“It is difficult to free fools from the chains they revere.”
Everyone who opposes Obama and Clinton should write to our Muslim Terrorist President and Attorney General on their respective websites and tell them it is time to stop protecting Hillary Clinton and indict her for the criminal she is. Enough of this cover up and stalling and subverting the laws of the land. Either obey your oaths or resign immediately.
Also, I would encourage everyone who is comfortable with doing so to purchase as many firearms and ammunition as they can afford to not only protect themselves from criminals and terrorists but from our Government as well. Buy yourself a semi automatic handgun and rifle at a minimum and get prepared to defend yourself.
WOW! that was enlightening! I never heard of Saul Alinsky but then again I was never a communist or a socialist either.
Thanks for sharing, I am going to post on Facebook NOW!
It doesn’t surprise my one bit about the corruption that damned POS white trash, racist, Facist, Athiest, evil, wicked,venal, bossy, bully, snotty, rude, arrogant, back stabber, liar, cheat, crooked, corrupt, fraudster, fault finding, finger pointing, murderous B@&CH Hitlery Killery ROTTON Ayatollah Khoemeni Clinton does to get herself elected, her Sleazeball, draft dodger, POS white trash sugar coated racist, bigot, Facist, Athiest, evil, wicked,venal,
Bossy, bully, snotty, rude, arrogant, back stabber, liar,cheat, fraudster, fault finding, finger pointing former Figurehead Bill Clinton also did the same exact
crooked, corrupt way to win the nomanation in 1992 and the election. The elections of 1824,1888,1972,1992 & 1996 were all fixed in rigged. Cheating,
vote & election rigging are the only ways that the damned POS white trash Clinton’s can win. The Clinton’s belong on Devils Island, and the media needs to quit favoring the damned POS white trash Clinton’s and be neutral so the everyday people can see for themselves of who is running for office
whether it be for Begger, Dog Catcher, parking monitor, Mayor, Senator, Governor, LT Governor, Figurehead, Vice Figurehead, not have the media telling who a person should & should not vote for.
Hillary Clinton is untrustworthy. She will whore herself out to anyone with money. If she becomes president she is likely to sell everything she can for her personal benefit. This woman does not care about the poor, the working class or the rights of pregnant women. Hillary Clinton is only interested in money.
She is getting the large contributions from foreign governments, government contractors, abortion providers, etc. If she is elected she will reward her donors with favorable legislation, government contracts and influence. The Sanders voters who are truly sick of sleazy politics and politicians will not improve anything by voting for Hillary.
To democrats and the NEWS media….ONLY political correctness matters….”she is a women”….you have to vote her no matter what crimes she comittes…so we can remain politically correct….????
The only vote she gets should be to put her and Obo in the same cell so they can kill each other
The Clintons has always been dirty money and always ill be.. Better check overseas for more of her dirty money
HILLARY IS UNFIT TO SERVE AS PRESIDENT OF THESE U.S. DIRTY CAMPAIGN MONEY, BENGHAZI, DEFENDED A CHILD RAPIST EVEN THOUGH SHE KNEW HE WAS QUILTY. FALSIFIED STATEMENTS TO THE FEDERAL COMMISSION ABOUT LARGE DONATION TO HER 2000SENATE CAMPAIGN. INVOLVED IN THE BENGHAZI SCANDAL THAT RESULTED DEATH OF FOUR PEOPLE. SHE WILL DO ANY THING TO BE THE FIRST WOMAN PRESIDENT.
If only anything could rock that filthy, murderous, yeast infection but it won;t happen. The network “News” people are owned by the communists infesting the White House..
Hilary had to give back a 600K$ donation from one donor in her 2008 run, but we will never have Obama’s IRS do an actual Accounting on her Foundation with Bank Transfers.. so many many millions, a hundred million, could be being used illegally.
She is pure EVIL, that bitch needs to be put in her place NOW….
Nothing matters unless it “rocks” her hard enough to land her in jail.
Like the Prohibition Era Gangster Al Capone, nothing is touching Ms. Clinton. She’s not being held to account by FBI, the US Justice Dept, the timid Republican Congress. Right now Hillary is ‘Untouchable’ just like Al Capone. Hopefully Hillary commits a foolish blunder that blows up in her face. But she is a skilled, veteran politician who will be hard to beat. We may have to endure 8 years of POTUS Clinton.
