Nothing gonna happen.

Corrupt fascists always accuse others of being corrupt. Also, fascists are dumb.

These are the same republicans that will put a mother in jail for collecting $100 too much in food stamps.

I always look for this everytime some "shocking" news about GQP Congresspeople get posted. So far, it's got a perfect track record
AnonOmis1000
Yeah its depressing how often I can use this gif.

Cool. Call me when we get to the "Consequences" phase.
SlowerDwightYouIgnorantSlut
Follow the money to what end?! None of these fuckers are fucking held accountable. It’s infuriating. R and Ds alike, check these fucks.
Whitebeardthepirate
what's most disgusting, she claims she can't be charged for "an innocent error"
TheRockDude
"it's not clear that Boebert faces immediate legal jeopardy" tells you all you need to know about this story, really
DrewBerg
Nothing will happen to her too. It doesn't matter. Nothing matters.

Time for the purge.

I'd like to add that Mike Pence also used campaign funds to pay his mortgage. Nothing happened to him either.
YouEatYellowSnow
What, campaign money isn't a slush fund for politicians? Ridiculous. My teenage nephew knows that's illegal and he has never voted.
NickRivieraMD
I mean, then he probably more has a sense it oughta be illegal than actually knows it's illegal.
YouEatYellowSnow
No I asked him. The point is she is an adult and in Congress. That is day one knowledge in campaigning.
YouEatYellowSnow
My nephew said he was taught that in his poli sci class.
NickRivieraMD
Snap, good on him.

DontCallMeMisterMark
She’s horrible but she’s raised almost $2m. $7,000 is a super minor error. Maybe it was intentional. Maybe it wasn’t but it’s irrelevant.
AlwaysInTheshadows
I came here to comment on how nothing will happen and she'll maintain her position but pretty much everybody already said it.

You learn a lot about people when you give them access to money.

Power and money do not corrupt. They reveal https://www.robertcaro.com/the-books/the-path-to-power/

Get caught, pay it back, refile, excused. It's shameful, but that's what happens with Republicans on oversight boards like the FEC.

Is cable TV dying?

So, she’s ok with using government money to pay for her rent and utilities but when real poor people and or
sleepinggreenidea
But campaign donations aren't gov't money - it's private money to be used for campaigns, so it's FINE she gave herself an interest-free loan
sleepinggreenidea
[/s, in case it's not obvious]
AmSquanchingHere
people of color, it’s bums abusing the system.
FrogBotherer
Nothing ever sticks to these bastards. I vote we should figure out why that is and use it to make better frying pans.
shadowdragon81
What other job creates so many millionaires? Their salary is $174k and their pension is $139,200. They retire on way more than I make!
sleepinggreenidea
It's better that they're overpaid than underpaid. They're greedy and corrupt enough as it is.
shadowdragon81
They're already overpaid, but it doesn't account for how much money they're accumulating. they have more money than their pay should allow.
witheredspoon
The payments were only "erroneous" if she got caught.
Bonchoman
It this point they don't even care anymore. They just have to repeat their lies enough and their voter will believe anything they want.
Whitebeardthepirate
what's funny, if that was a dem doing this, she's want them hung
Compound515
*hanged, people being hung means something completely different
Whitebeardthepirate
yes, you're correct, my apologies for the error
andwings2go
“ Oops you caught me, here’s the money back” Like any normal person would ever get away with shit like that
GodTurkey
Okay but what if it actually was a mistake? How fast did she return the misused money? Also 6 grand isnt exactly a fortune.
soThatWasThat
Well she needed that fortune, sooooo
OhIfIMust
She'll never see the inside of a jail cell for any of this, and all my idiot "friends" will insist that this is just political scapegoating
xj4low
Nope, will just correct and data and pay it back. Nothing will happen.
ExaDeuce
Jail time for this would be unusual. In the rare event these people are "punished," they get a fine. I bet they can pay with donations :P
MrStealUrMeme
The quote "we are considering legal action" tells you everything you need to know. We need to stop considering and start doing.
frankenmullet22
And will lose their shit if a democrat gets caught doing the same thing
OhIfIMust
They love to scream "hypocrisy," but are awfully quiet when it's pointed out in their camp. I don't have much to do with them anymore.
frankenmullet22
It was kinda fun to argue with them for a while, now it's just kinda sad
HighImpactSexualViolence
Arguing/Debating is only fun if both parties can agree of the rules the debate functions on. 2021 Repubs refuse to accept objective reality.

None of them. Blue vs Red writing laws to protect themselves from as a whole. Its now competition to see who can rape American. Nah mean!

***competition taking turns raping America.
RocknRootRanchcuzallwegotisrocksandrootsandafewtrees
To be clear...she is familiar w/the inside of a jail cell. Ref: I've put her in a cell personally.

Spill. The. Beans.

Okay, story time.

she's got a long rap sheet
RocknRootRanchcuzallwegotisrocksandrootsandafewtrees
I can see a story is necessary. Look for one soon.

Oh look, another republican grifter. I am so shocked.
