Stop Hillary PAC supported Gowdy and his Stop Hillary Committee
Trey "Stop Hillary" Gowdy illegally uses public monies to Stop Hillary.
Today, the Washington Post reported on newly discovered links between Rep. Trey Gowdy, the Chairman of the House Select Committee on Benghazi, and Stop Hillary PAC, which describes itself as “created for one reason only—to ensure Hillary Clinton never becomes President of the United States.” [. . .]There is nothing wrong with Gowdy's affiliation with the Stop Hillary PAC.On September 2, 2015, Backer—on behalf of Stop Hillary PAC—filed a report with the FEC reporting an expenditure of $10,000 in “support” of Chairman Gowdy. The “purpose of expenditure” is listed as “digital messaging delivery and robocalls.” The “name of federal candidate” is listed as “Trey Gowdy.” [My emphasis]
What is wrong is his use of public monies on behalf of the Stop Hillary cause, otherwise known as the Select Benghazi Committee.
That's illegal.
This is a sham and a disgrace.
