Will this go anywhere? Almost no articles are trotting out their “legal experts” to say that there is nothing to it, that it is frivolous
Donald Trump’s campaign has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission claiming the transfer of funds from the Biden reelection campaign to the Harris presidential campaign is a violation of campaign finance rules. The complaint is filed against President Biden, Vice President Harris, the Biden campaign and campaign treasurer Keana Spencer.
“Kamala Harris is seeking to perpetrate a $91.5 million dollar heist of Joe Biden’s leftover campaign cash — a brazen money grab that would constitute the single largest excessive contribution and biggest violation in the history of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended (the “Act”).”
The Trump campaign’s general counsel, David Warrington accuses them of “filing fraudulent forms with the Commission purporting to repurpose one candidate’s principal campaign committee for the use of another candidate,” claiming that Harris simply replaced Biden’s name with her own rather than filing her own Statement of Candidacy.
“There is no provision in federal campaign finance law for Kamala Harris to take over Joe Biden’s candidacy now by quite literally attempting to become him via an amendment of his Form 2, assuming control of his campaign by amending Form 1, and making off with all of his cash,” wrote Warrington.
Does she have the legal authority to simply replace everything Biden with everything Kamala and get all the money that candidate Biden raised?
However, the claim is expected to face strong pushback from the Harris campaign, noting that when the campaign was originally registered with the FEC it was called the “principal campaign committee” for both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. At least one FEC commissioner has already indicated she agreed that if Harris became the nominee she would have legal access to the campaign funds.
Well, obviously they are going to push back. But, if it was for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, but, Joe Biden is no longer part, does it count?
(Fox News) The complaint argues that if “Kamala Harris were a candidate for something in 2024, federal law requires her to have filed a Statement of Candidacy and for her name to have appeared in the name of her authorized committee. But Kamala Harris’s name does not appear in the name of her purported authorized committee, ‘Biden for President,’ and, until Sunday, no Statement of Candidacy existed for her. Then Sunday, rather than filing her own Statement of Candidacy, she merely altered Joe Biden’s to replace his name with hers. There is no mechanism under the Act for one individual to end another’s federal candidacy by simply amending the other’s Form 2. Moreover, in that purported amended Form 2 Harris designated ‘Biden for President’ as her principal campaign committee and then renamed it. Altering a document submitted to a federal agency is a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1519.3.”
Well, we’ll see where this goes.
Democraticals violating campaign finance rules?
Bwaha! Lolgf
I don’t know if it’s legal or not. I don’t know if it’s constitutional or not. I don’t know if the Republicans or the Democrats know that either.
I do know that I couldn’t care less. The Democrats are destroying their own party right now they’re tearing it to shreds. They spent so much time lying to the American people over the last eight years that they don’t know the truth themselves. Every morning all the left wing news guys come on and repeat the same dribble like they had a wire up their ass and had to say what was coming through the wire period. None of them think for themselves and none of them may ask any questions. Right now they should be running around saying didn’t this idiot bitch spend the last two months telling us what stupendous shape Biden was in? Then why now is it common knowledge that he wasn’t in good shape? Are you telling me that all us Republicans and all us MAGA supporters recollect all along and the Democrat party and the Democrat politicians were all lying to us. Yes us. I’ll send dependence on us maga supporters and the Democrats themselves. Their leaders were lying to us. On a continuous uninterrupted basis. And all the simpletons in the party sat there and nodded in agreement no matter how stupid everything they said in the morning sounded. They watched as the cretan president fell up the steps of the plane not once but twice, fell off this freaking bicycle, sat there would they be bewildered face when asked questions, walk around in circles with his hand out for his shake after every comment, and generally look constantly like a dead man walking.
Now all the dummies on the Democrat team wanna start the whole thing all over again on us and expect us to believe it. You’re kidding me right? As I tried to explain to Adolf Elwood nobody believes him anymore because he spends too much time bloviating. He says so many dumb things nobody knows when he’s serious. Sadly I think most of the dumb things he says he is serious about. Like he doesn’t know when life begins or men can become women or Biden got 81 million votes lol. Well now we can list her that cackles Harris spin her yarn until the election lucky him cause I’m just gonna turn the ugly kunt off.
Adolf Brandon (nationality unknown),
President Biden withdrew from the 2024 election. Didn’t you hear? Trump, Trumpists and MAGAts now must campaign against Vice-President Kamala Harris. So far, they mostly complain about her laugh, her gender/sex, her ancestry, and that she’s a Democrat. Yawn.
I’ve told you repeatedly you lying dumbass from some foreign land that 1) life begins at birth, 2) men CAN live as women and 3) President Biden received 81 million anti-Trump votes.
Vice-President Harris will receive even more than 81 million anti-Trump votes. Women voters, Black voters, immigrant voters, and garden variety voters are energized. We fully understand the panic amongst the MAGAcommentariat. Latest national polls show a Trump and Vice-President Harris deadlocked. The Vice-President of the United States will win the national vote in a landslide, but turnout in battleground states like NC, VA, GA, PA, MI, WI, NV and AZ will be key.
That ugly kunt Trump may have to stage another ‘assignation’ attempt, LOL.
No. He was withdrawn. The burden of proof is on him to show he actually did it. Nobody believes he made that decision on his own and not under duress.
Except a Democrat, maybe, but then again they learned a new word on Jan 6, 2021 and can’t stop pulling their hair and screaming about it since — despite the fact that all their primary votes were just negated in the name of “saving democracy11!!1!!1!”
Maybe.
But definitely NOT — zero chance — from 81 million individual, legal, non-felonious, discrete, eligible, living AMERICAN CITIZENS.
You said the quiet part out loud, asshole.
The US President can be removed by impeachment/conviction by the Senate or by Section 4* of the 25th Amendment. Neither occurred. The President can resign, as did Mr Nixon. President Biden did not resign.
President Biden’s close associates, respected colleagues and family persuaded him to withdraw from the campaign for the good of the nation. The belief is that Vice President Harris has a better opportunity to win than President Biden.
If only Mr Trump loved America!
BTW, asshole, over 81 million individual, legal, non-felonious, discrete, eligible, living AMERICAN CITIZENS will vote for Vice-President Harris.

Another long C&P. TL;DNR.
#Trump2024
Bwaha! Lolgf
Didn’t suggest he did. I suggested the decision for him to quit the campaign was not made by him.
Again, quiet part out loud, asshole: this is literally the third election cycle in a row — at least!! — where Party™ leadership played fuck-fuck games with their own primaries, screwing their voters.
This, from the idiots that go purple in the face and pull on their hair and scream about our “precious democracy.”
No reason why they should. Didn’t happen in 2020, and kamalamaladingdong is as popular as rectal cancer.
Chicken Little Karen Man
So far, they mostly complain about her laugh, her gender/sex, her ancestry, and that she’s a Democrat. Yawn.
Actually they are running against an open border, sky high inflation, riots by HAMAS supporters and other things. That she supports these things merely ties them to her. You Lefties need to read the Second Amendment.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people
peaceably to assemble,
and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Or do you think tearing down the US flag and hosting HAMAS’ peaceful?
So you think that’s the Second Amendment? LOL.
Stupid Republicans. They should have figured out by now that Democrats couldn’t care less about petty things like “Laws”. Beating Trump/Hitler is all that matters. If they have to, Harris can legally change her name to Joe Biden, then change it back after the election. Campaign finance laws are the weakest of all the laws. If they get caught violating them, the campaign pays a fine… after the election.
It is so easy for the Democrats to go find a judge to simply declare, “it’s okay”.
They’re all criminal. Just build a wall around DC.
“Biden was near full-term so the Dems had to abort…”
That’s where trump made his mistake. Instead of having his lawyers fissure their own judge allowed the justice system to choose one forum. So he ended up with a political crony as a judge it was a long time Democrat, Democrat donor, bundler, and All in all a left wing pimp. While trump was being tried this guy’s life was pulling in millions going against trump. Who the hell could win a trial like that?
That’s why I love to hear Democrats call him a felon. Yeah 34 counts are falsifying business records. Nobody hurt, nobody lost money nothing was done illegally but the business records didn’t jive. Now in my life I’ve owned a couple businesses and my business records were always falsified I designed them according to whom I was speaking if I wanted to borrow money I was bringing in more money than I needed and if I was paying taxes I was trying to show that I was taking in less than I was. The way business works for everybody not just Donald Trump. Every time some Democrat says well he’s a felon I would say well, at least it didn’t stick in his dick in his daughter’s mouth.
Right. The Record said that money he paid to his lawyer was a legal expense. Prosecutors said it should be a campaign expense instead. SEC chief was not allowed to testify what the definition of campaign expense is. In either case, for Trump to spend his own money any way he likes was perfectly legal.
Also, Trump didn’t do it. Office staff did it. Trump was convicted of a criminal act that he himself was not a part of. For anyone else, this would be a small fine that the company pays.
This law was created to catch criminals who altered business records to hide crimes and destroy evidence. Like what Hillary did when she destroyed the hard drive on her home server, which was also in New York.
Just goes to show that when democrats are in power, they can make anyone a felon. Being innocent is no longer a defense. If they can’t fabricate evidence, they can fabricate a whole new law that only applies to you.
I liked when Governor Andy Beshear (D-KY) stated that the scoundrel J.D. Vance is a fake and a phony, had no conviction, but added his running mate had 34, enough for both of them. LOL.
So Democrats are going to basically just steal $200 million or whatever the hell those idiots gave to the Brandon campaign ….
….. while at the same time they think they need to send Trump to prison for writing a check for $130,000 to make an extortionist fuck off and go away.
Rule #1 of 21st Century American Politics strikes again: It’s OK when a Democrat does it, for any and all possible values of “it.”
Not for writing the check. That’s legal.
Not for paying the extortion. That’s legal too.
Not for paying “hush money” (A.K.A. getting an NDA). Also totally legal and standard practice for media moguls taking interviews with potential employees.
For claiming in his own records that the money he paid to his lawyer out of his own pocket was a “legal expense” instead of whatever the prosecutor thought it should be. This would have no effect on his taxes, business deductions or anything else. It’s a non-crime “Crime”. But it’s the best Democrats could “Trump up” since all their other fake crimes were falling apart.
isn’t it great that Democratic party activists can laugh about how they deny basic civil right like due process of law and turn the law itself on it’s head to convict Americans of crimes just because they are in a different political party?
Is that how elections work now? You decide ahead of time how many individual legal non felonious discreet eligible living American citizens will vote for your candidate and just pencil them in?
You’re a liar your party is all liars your politician are all liars and your auntie American traders and you should all be executed how’s that for you?
