A conservative scholar and author known recently for his critical works on President Barack Obama has been indicted in New York on charges he violated campaign finance laws.
Federal prosecutors announced the charges Thursday against Dinesh D’Souza, who made the anti-Obama documentary “2016: Obama’s America.” They say he’ll be arraigned Friday on charges he directed $20,000 in illegal contributions to be made in the New York Senate race in 2012. The funds allegedly headed to the Wendy Long campaign, who unsuccessfully ran for Hillary Clinton’s U.S. Senate seat.
D’Souza found out he was being investigated by the feds in the mid-2013, months after his anti-Obama documentary earned roughly $33 million at the box office, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The film went on to become the second most popular political documentary in U.S. history.

So when you disagree with the federal government you get a visit from FBI? And get hit with phony charges? Whatever happened to Freedom of Speech? What about the IRS scandals, Benghazi and Fast & Furious?
dittos 8:55. in addition there is an organization in Hollywood that is conservative and they haven't been able to get a 501c4 for over 2 years.
this government is after all conservatives and conservative organizations that get in their way. it's a way of silencing them and intimidating many more.
strains of hitler, stalin and others who want total control over the masses.

Yeah right 9:37..
I was ready 4 years ago... been locked and loaded ever since.
We just keep waiting and waiting for the call to action. Meanwhile the Communists just keep building strength and destroying the country.
I just watched the Docmentary "The Square" which illustrates the political conditions in Egypt 2010 to the present.
Egypt, a country/culture of a thousand years now with blood in the streets and revolution in the air and on "The Square". Those that hold a smug and "that can't happen here in america" mind set" had better get their collective "heads out of the sand."
More revenge politics, but the media will continue to cover Christie. The middle east has never been stable, what do expect from barbarians?
