GOP operative’s conviction over illegal Russian contributions to Trump campaign upheld

https://www.aol.com/news/gop-operative-conviction-over-illegal-180109584.html

A GOP political operative’s conviction over steering illegal Russian contributions to former President Trump’s 2016 campaign was upheld by a federal appeals court on Friday.

The District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the appeal of Jesse Benton, a veteran political operative.

Benton was convicted in late 2022. He had been charged with helping to orchestrate an illegal donation to the Trump campaign and the Republican National Committee (RNC) for a Russian national, Roman Vasilenko.

Benton’s consulting firm received $100,000. The operative created a fake invoice on which he said the fee was for consulting. He then arranged for Vasilenko to meet with Trump at a fundraiser without revealing his nationality to the campaign or the former president, according to court documents

Trump would probably claim nobody ever told him that Putin was Russian.

If anything this proves a Benton-Russia connection, and possibly for the only purpose of putting Trump in a bad light. Only the weak-minded hateful would fall for it. Hillary actually did collaborate with Russia in order to sway an election, yet no charges. The FBI admits they lied about the Hunter Biden laptop to sway an election yet no charges. Biden actually broke the law by taking classified materials as VP, completely without the protection of law yet no charges. This fascination is not about seeking justice but to provide an avenue for hatred, and an obvious desire for the destruction of the US.

Honest question:What would make you accept that Trump may have committed a crime?

[–] Sparky (2344) 18 days ago

I think a more obvious question is what would it take for you to recognize the inconsistencies of the way in which these two presidents were treated? Add in the many firsts that have come about as a result of the efforts of the dems and it paints an incriminating picture.

[–] Narwhale37 (728) 18 days ago

That wasn't an answer. We can talk about "equal justice" after you have have one.

[–] Sparky (2344) 18 days ago

Hard to get anything by you eh? IMO you aren't worth talking to with your active denial of reality. If you want the respect of having your words taken seriously you have to be respectable yourself.

[–] Narwhale37 (728) 18 days ago

Why can't you just answer the question?:What would make you accept that Trump is guilt of something? It's very basic.

[–] Sparky (2344) 18 days ago

Refer to the previous post of mine.

"Hillary actually did collaborate with Russia"

wow thats a new one! have you got a deranged twitter post to back that up , in the absence of evidence?

[–] Ranb (7361) 15 days ago

Trump always said he could do anything. Why did Trump not ensure Clinton was brought to justice? Is Trump conspiring with Clinton to keep her out of prison?

Which FBI agent "lied about the Hunter Biden laptop to sway an election"?

I hope that Biden and Pence someday face charges of mishandling classified information. Maybe if they had refused to surrender it upon demand, then they would have been indicted for it like Trump was.

But they behaved like good little boys and turned it in when it was found.

How does Trump's dick up your ass feel?

[–] JoWilli (15410) 18 days ago

do you have the evidence that Russia hijacked the election?

[–] Martoto (4289) 17 days ago

The OP doesn't even say anything about hijacking.

[–] JoWilli (15410) 17 days ago

do you have the evidence about the Trump-Russia hoax?

yes

Mueller concluded there was no evidence and the Durham report concluded all the "evidence" presented by Nancy and the dems was fake.

[–] moviechatterer (13470) 17 days ago

Nobody is saying that.

The facts are:
-Russia DID attempt to help Trump win with a facebook campaign
-Russia did not succeed in making any real difference
-Trump was not in on it.

[–] JoWilli (15410) 17 days ago

Nancy and Hillary and millions of other still think Trump stole the election

The facts are:
-Russia DID attempt to help Trump win with a facebook campaign - true, but fake ads is not the same thing as hijacking an election.
-Russia did not succeed in making any real difference - true, more people voted for Trump than Hillary.
-Trump was not in on it. - true, thankfully Mueller investigated the election for 2 years to find this out.

more facts:
the Durham report concluded all the "evidence" presented by Nancy and the dems was fake.
the 2020 election was never investigated.

[–] moviechatterer (13470) 17 days ago

" true, but fake ads is not the same thing as hijacking an election."
I agree . Had Russia succeeded ( by using even more ads or somethnign) I dont think that would have been grounds for a cancelling the result - peoples votes would still have been counted as for who they cast them

"Nancy and Hillary and millions of other"
I dont think they do .
Certainly you wont find anyone on this website fighting that fight , what does that tell us?

[–] JoWilli (15410) 16 days ago

I am fighting that fight to preserve history. most everyone has already forgotten the dems were the first election deniers.

you and I both know that dems will say the election is rigged again if Trump wins. if Biden wins then the election was fair and honest.

[–] TheDemon (468) 11 days ago

What edit? Stop making things up like your bible stories.

[–] JoWilli (15410) 11 days ago

how do you know the Bible stories are made up?

[–] TheDemon (468) 10 days ago

How do you know they are true?
Still have not answered my question on what did I edit. Because you can't. lol.

[–] Satan2016 (23533) 15 days ago

Which one is paranoid schizo: Sparky or JoWilli? Trump is the pathological liar and his groupies belong in the loony bin.
