Maxine Waters Paid Daughter $50K from Campaign Funds- Set to Pay Out MUCH More

I find it SO interesting that Democrats are obsessed with everything every single member of the Trump family has EVER done –

Meanwhile, they let things like this completely slide. Nothing to see here, just Maxine being Maxine. After all, corruption only counts if you’re a Republican, right?

Sure seems like it.

According to the Free Beacon:

Rep. Maxine Waters (D., Calif.) paid $50,000 from her campaign’s coffers to her daughter in recent months to chip away at six figures of accrued debt for an operation that pulls in large sums of money for the congresswoman’s campaign committee, Federal Election Commission filings show.

Rep. Waters’s committee disbursed two payments to her daughter, Karen, in the amounts of $42,000 and $8,000 during the first quarter, which runs from Jan. 1 to March 31. The $50,000 in payments were made to Karen for running a slate mailer, or endorsement mailer, operation from the campaign and were the most paid out by the committee for any activity throughout the first three months of the year.

Translation: Mama pays her GOOD money to stuff envelopes.

But 50k is just the tip of the iceberg here, folks.

Waters’s campaign committee reported $94,000 of debts owed to her daughter in pre-general midterm election filings submitted to the FEC on Oct. 17, 2018. However, this amount shot up $90,000 in a matter of weeks to $183,022.15, the Washington Free Beacon previously reported.

Now, Waters’s campaign reports $182,383 in total debts and obligations after the first quarter and following the recent $50,000 in payments. An overwhelming majority of this amount—$133,022.15—is marked as debt still owed to Karen, who already directly pocketed $108,000 from the campaign during the midterm elections.

Karen Waters has greatly benefitted from overseeing the slate mailers and has pocketed north of $800,000 over the years

Wow. Must be a nice gig, Karen.

Critics have filed complaints to the FEC against the Democratic congresswomen over the practice which has netted her daughter lucrative cash. The FEC issued an advisory opinion in 2004 allowing Waters to run the operation from her federal campaign committee. Prior to this, the mailers were operated out of a California committee called LA Vote.

The use of slate mailers, which are a common practice in states such as California and Oregon, have come under heavy scrutiny. Waters appears to be the only federal candidate to run a slate mailer operation from a federal committee, according to a search of the FEC’s database.

Maxine is a crook. Always has been.

She’s also the Chair the U.S. House Committee on Financial Services.

Let THAT sink in.
