JUST IN: Jeb Bush Super PAC Hit with Massive FEC Fine For Accepting $1.3 Million in Illegal Donations From Chinese Corporation

The FEC [Federal Election Commission] hit Jeb Bush’s super PAC with a $390,000 fine for illegally accepting $1.3 million in donations from Chinese-owned corporation American Pacific International Capital (APIC) during the 2016 presidential primary.

Jeb Bush’s brother, Neil Bush sat on the board for APIC.

Jeb Bush founded the PAC in January of 2015, but handed over control of the PAC to Republican consultant Mike Murphy in Spring of 2016.

Campaign Legal Center (CLC), a watchdog group, filed a formal complaint with the FEC in August of 2016 citing a report from The Intercept detailing how Chinese businessmen were illegally funneling money to Jeb Bush’s PAC, Right to Rise USA.

Politicians continue to deride corporations as being greedy.
There's not a greedier breed than a politician.

Jeb has been the worst Bush ever he first made a mess of a former vote count in Florida for president when Al Gore ran. He has run before for the office and made himself look like a fool, his father was the only good one, his brother George Jr. was a dud as president, he needs to just go quietly and sit in the corner. The Bush's are done, enjoy the money and name and just fade out.

He should have used Trump's team to hide it! Lol.

Jeb was regarded as a good governor in Florida. But he stepped out of the limelight and when he tried to drop back in some years later he'd lost his edge and relevance. Thus his stellar (not) performance in 2016 despite a big bankroll and early announcement.

If they're fining him, it provides more basis for digging into AOC's funny money.

At least he has accepted guilt AND responsibility.
More than can be said for Trump
