Clinton Campaign Busted Accepting Money From Foreign Donor

While Hillary has proven on more than one occasion that the law doesn’t apply to her, Project Veritas Action has shown a complete disregard for it in their attempts to reveal political corruption. And she’s not the only one they’re targeting. During a news conference in Washington, in which James O’Keefe revealed Hillary’s campaign corruption, he also announced that his group would be sparing no expense in uncovering signs of unlawfulness from other candidates, as well.

Campaign rallies are crawling with hidden cameras these days as opposition researchers from rivals, activist groups or political action committees spare no expense in hopes of finding a gaffe or, ideally, signs of unlawfulness.

Presidential campaigns were put on notice on Tuesday that the stakes will be higher in this election cycle as Project Veritas Action, a research team that uses undercover investigators, warned that it was stepping up its stalking.

The group, which considers itself a journalism organization, is led by James O’Keefe, who has experienced his own legal problems over the years for lying to gain access to information. In 2010, Mr. O’Keefe pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges and was fined for posing as a repairman to gain access to the office of former Senator Mary Landrieu of Louisiana. Two years ago, Mr. O’Keefe paid $100,000 to settle a lawsuit filed by a former Acorn member after he posed as a pimp during an investigation of the activist group.

Mr. O’Keefe’s team — which he billed as an investigative SEAL Team Six — fired an opening salvo on Tuesday by calling a news conference at the National Press Club in Washington to reveal a purported violation of campaign finance laws by Hillary Rodham Clinton’s staff members.

In a five-minute video compilation, Veritas showed senior members of Mrs. Clinton’s team appearing to accept a donation from a Canadian women at Mrs. Clinton’s campaign announcement rally in exchange for hats and pins bearing the candidate’s name. The staff members — Molly Barker and Erin Tibe — express awareness that they cannot accept a donation from a foreigner but agree to allow the Canadian woman to give the money to an American citizen standing next to her who made the transaction on her behalf.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with James O’Keefe and Project Veritas Action, they’re responsible for uncovering the corruption behind Acorn after a former member of O’Keefe’s group posed as a pimp during an investigation of the activist group. Most would argue that their tactics are dirty, but that might be exactly the kind of group our presidential candidates need keeping them in check.
