DOJ... come on down... Check this out on Bondi ! People forgot this news from Orlando Sentinel

Bondi gets free Hawaiian Vacation ....cases get dropped !


We here at DK actually help break the Fundraiser story again, but this is not new.

Neither is the info published from 2014 but it never got the attention it deserved.. The DOJ needs to open an investigation regarding what the Orlando paper printed. It is damning. Wow. The Times ran this in 2014 as did the Orlando Sentinel.

www.orlandosentinel.com/…

There's a national embarrassment afoot, Florida is bound to be front and center.

The investigation found Bondi flitting around the globe — at posh resorts in Hawaii, California and all sorts of places other than the state she was elected to serve.

Gift records examined by The Associated Press found that Bondi had taken more than $51,000 worth of free trips, meals and hotel stays — much of it thanks to corporations that funneled money through the Republican Attorneys General Association.

is putting her under the microscope. When Trump goes down, he may take a lot of people with him. "Losers".

"Trump Dumpsters" or "Trump Trash" - has a nice ring to it!

I am quite sure this will hurt his "brand". Hopefully when this is over, he'll have nothing left. He could always move to Russia.

Trump is not one to let an opportunity pass him by.

OR maybe he could become a political consultant!

No doubt we have to hound them into doing their job... Left alone they will only report on the one new email found in the latest "release" from the preposterous Clinton non-scandal.

we wouldn't hear a thing.

But i think this is escalating too big and fast
for Republican fixers to keep a lid on it.

First I've heard of that. How much more proof is needed? Trump did everything expected of someone trying to hide a bribe.

did with her on Florida's claims for the oil spill. The settlement was done globally to all state governments, but Bondi was the only one of the Gulf state AG's that didn't publicly go after BP. Abbott didn't do much for Texas either, but Texas had much less harm.

There has to be calls and emails getting her to back off. I would bet there was a quid pro quo if someone would dig for it.

19. Meanwhile, Bill Clinton made mincemeat of him in all of 20 seconds (video at link)
Wed Sep 7, 2016, 02:39 PM

The former president said, “Her opponent always figures out what he is about to be zapped with and accuses her of it. It’s good. I mean, he’s good at that. He’s made a lot of money on reality TV. They’re going to accuse me of pay to play in Florida. I think I’ll accuse her of it.”

Bill Clinton made the audience laugh while driving home three messages that are key to the Hillary Clinton campaign in twenty seconds. Mr. Clinton hit Trump for his compulsive habit of projecting his own flaws onto his opponent. The former president reminded voters that Trump is unqualified for the office that he is seeking by using the phrase reality TV star, and he brought up Trump’s corruption with the unfolding pay for play Trump scandal in Florida.

Bill Clinton is a master of political communication. His folksy tone and charm smoothly coat a rock solid political message. Donald Trump has created the myth that he is a great communicator, but Trump looks like a babbling child compared to Bill Clinton.
