In a nutshell:
“There is a max amount of money any one person can donate in a year. To get around this, the DNC have established “debts” for previous years so that people can go beyond the maximum.
In a nutshell:
“There is a max amount of money any one person can donate in a year. To get around this, the DNC have established “debts” for previous years so that people can go beyond the maximum.
I can give the maximum amount allowed, then give more by paying off my “debts” from previous years.”
This is really big!
Someone doesn’t give a max donation one year, for example 2012. The difference between what they actually donated and the maximum personal contribution allowed that year is recorded as “debt.” So this guy “owes” them $2,500.
He then gives $33,400 in 2016, but they take out $2,500 to apply to the “debt” from 2012 and retroactively add that contribution to a year in which he didn’t max out. This frees him up for another $2,500 in the current year.
Depending on how corrupt they are, they could be free to collect all the “debt” from multiple previous years. This could be tens of millions of dollars they have effectively raised their total maximum fund raising by for this election.
Someone who is in “debt” for not donating for the past 3 years could get in 4 times the maximum donation for this year, the very important election year.

DNC changes the date on contributions! [emailid 21847]
Before you read, note: All credit for the discovery goes to /u/bananawhom who posted this to /r/dncleaks, here, I have expanded on it and formatted it to be easier to understand.
(LINK ABOVE) Discussing a 2016 event:
Kristin White: Bennett Murphy gave $33,400 to our 2/11 event (CA472a) but the NFC List 2016 has him down for giving $30,900 this year. Would you mind poking around/updating?
Daniel Parrish: So it looks like he gave $33,400 but since it was a Hope event and he hadn’t maxed out in 2012, $2500 went to the debt. I can add that back in on top of his 2015 total. Does that work for you?
Lindsay Rachelefsky: Yes thank you!
Hey, that would put it in a different reporting period! But there may be something a lot worse here:
Here’s how I think it works.
Someone doesn’t give a max donation one year, for example 2012. The difference between what they actually donated and the maximum personal contribution allowed that year is recorded as “debt.” So this guy “owes” them $2,500.
He then gives $33,400 in 2016, but they take out $2,500 to apply to the “debt” from 2012 and retroactively add that contribution to a year in which he didn’t max out. This frees him up for another $2,500 in the current year.
Depending on how corrupt they are, they could be free to collect all the “debt” from multiple previous years. This could be tens of millions of dollars they have effectively raised their total maximum fund raising by for this election.
Someone who is in “debt” for not donating for the past 3 years could get in 4 times the maximum donation for this year, the very important election year.
Ex – DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s spread sheet (“the big spreadsheet of all things” excel file wikileaks download link), the source of these figures (under the DEBT tab), with the two different $ columns covers the years 2013, 14, 15. We can assume many Democrats maxed out for the 2012 presidential election, but they would have “debt” from the less important years they may not have given as much that could be taken advantage of now.
Changes to contribution law, hidden within the 2014 spending bill, allow the DNC and RNC to take in large checks, then break them up, and distribute them between 4 funds as they see fit.
It is unknown who put this change into the spending bill. According to a certain media company, founded by someone who hosts major fundraisers for both the DNC and DWS, it totally wasn’t her, according to un-named sources. (Ken Lerer, HuffPo)
This breaking up of the check is the point when the funds are free to be moved around, ostensibly to the 4 DNC funds. A crooked politician, however, could take advantage of this point in time when the money is no longer tied to the information from the contributor, like what fund it was written out to or even what date it was from.
Rather than go into specialty funds, the money could go to the general fund, marked as coming in from a previous year – or go into entirely different funds like Hillary’s, or a fund that is used to move money around.
The national party can make unlimited transfer of funds to or from the state, local, and candidate committees. We know there was are claims about money not ending up where it should have when it came to the DNC and state parties with the HFV (confirmed by multiple members of the DNC in the leaks already)… Unlimited transactions provides an opening for software designed for large numbers of rapid speed transactions to send the money back and forth and all over the place many, many times. This would not erase the paper trail, but make it a mile long and difficult to follow. Fraudulently editing the amounts a little bit at a time could also be used and be very difficult to track.
The long periods of “data-hygiene” the NGP system needed to delete duplicate transactions would be a time when some these extra and suspicious transactions could be deleted, before they had to report a period to the FEC. System down for 160 hours to remove duplicates? How would a transaction even get 4+ duplicate copies? Did 4+ different people all add one check to the system and all make different typos? The FEC only needs quarterly reports, and they were keen on getting rid of the duplicates before they had to report.
(LINK ABOVE) Patrick William Hallahan is “the director of special projects at Chopper Trading, a company that buys and sells stocks, bonds and other commodities through automation.” A “special project” for the DNC could be very useful for them given the legislation allowing them to toss money around and make unlimited transactions.
(LINK ABOVE) Here he is organizing a meeting with DNC’s Kaplan, Sam Brown from the DNC’s bank, someone from Hillary’s campaign, and lots of DNC affiliated consultants and financial types.
—–EDIT 2: Additional information about CHOPPER TRADING. That Raj Fernando guy is Chairman and CEO of Chopper Trading too. If you don’t remember, he got caught buying the board seat from Clinton (I’ll post info from his wikipedia below). He gets together with Amy to “help prepare for the eventual nominee.” SEE EMAIL 1150 FOR THE QUOTE This email was written in SEPTEMBER OF 2015
From Raj Fernando’s wikipedia: “In 2011, Fernando was granted a spot on the State Department’s International Security Advisory Board (ISAB) despite his lack of credentials in the subject area. He resigned shortly after, citing his need to focus on the needs of his company and to deal with unexpected and excessive volatility in the international markets. He is a well known donor to the Clinton Foundation and to the Clintons personally, so media groups have speculated on a quid-pro-quo relationship in which the Clintons helped him obtain a seat on the ISAB despite his lack of expertise in the subject.”
“In relation to the 2016 presidential election, ABC News revisited the terms of Fernando’s ISAB appointment, bringing his experience into question. According to the ISAB Charter, membership should reflect a balance of backgrounds, points of view, and demographic diversity and include a wide variety of scientific, military, diplomatic, and political backgrounds.”
“Wade Boese, Chief of Staff for the Office of the Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security, suggested Fernando’s appointment had only come at the request of Cheryl Mills, Hillary Clinton’s Chief of Staff.”

Obama to spend whole month of October campaigning for Hillary – ON YOUR DIME!
What a great way to spend the tax payer’s money – the fix is in, and we are all paying for it. Obama is using us as pawns for his personal agenda.
In a rather unprecedented move for a sitting president, Barack Obama has announced he will be clearing his schedule for the entire month of October in order to campaign for Hillary Clinton, the New York Times reported.
Short of a major crisis, the president plans to aggressively campaign for the Democratic nominee and will likely be on the campaign trail almost daily, all the way up to Election Day.
The announcement has already begun drawing criticism from those who believe the job of the president is to run the country, not fund raise and campaign for your successor.
According to some of Obama’s closet advisers, however, the president has become extremely concerned that a Trump presidency would spell disaster for his legacy.
Using the power of the Oval Office, Obama fears Trump will overturn his executive amnesty, the Affordable Care Act, reimpose abortion restrictions at home and abroad, and shift the American foreign policy focus.
In addition, the president fears Trump will lift EPA regulations on coal, begin the construction of a wall on the U.S. border with Mexico, and halt immigration from countries with high instances of terrorism.
Who Influences the DNC: More Than 60 Superdelegates are Registerd Lobbyists
Lobbyists wield enormous influence and, depending on your point of view, can bring positive or negative changes to our government. From reptile keepers to balloon enthusiasts, everyone has a constitutional right to petition government. The power some lobbyists hold over both parties in Congress and the White House is well documented. But what’s not well documented is how lobbyists play a role in the Democratic party’s nominating process.
As Libby Watson noted earlier this year, most delegates to the Democratic National Convention, held this year in Philadelphia, are allocated based on the vote share from primaries and caucuses held in individual states, territories and the District of Columbia. But there are also 712 so-called voting superdelegates. These individuals include former and current elected officials as well as members of the Democratic National Committee. Superdelegates can support whomever they choose and are not bound by any primary or caucus result.
And, as we found, some of the superdelegates also happen to be lobbyists for interests like big banks, payday lenders, health care insurers and unions.
Since February, Sunlight has pored over hundreds of names and affiliations of DNC superdelegates from all over the country. Our methodology included going state by state to the respective lobbying registration database, as well as using data from OpenSecrets.org, to see if an individual was ever registered as a federal or state lobbyist.
At least 63 superdelegates have registered as a lobbyist at the federal level or state level at some point. (Note: As we documented in our state lobbying report card, some states keep poor records of lobbying, so some information may be out of date.)
Those include some pretty big names, such as former Democratic Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell — who used to lead DLA Piper, a law and lobbying firm — and former Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell, who was a registered lobbyist working for Ballard Spahr LLP on telecommunications and health issues as recently as 2012. Richard Gephardt, the former House minority leader, is also a registered lobbyist on behalf of a firm that shares his namesake, the Gephardt Group.
Some other notable lobbyist superdelegates:
- Donald L. Fowler is a former Democratic National Committee chair who was a registered lobbyist for the S.C. Credit Union in South Carolina in 2009.
- Alexis Tameron was registered to lobby for American Traffic Solutions in Arizona in 2011.
- Joyce Brayboy is a lobbyist for Goldman Sachs, most recently registered in 2015.
- Steve Grossman, a former president of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and now a federal lobbyist for HPS Inc. working on issues related to the budget.

Hedge-Fund Money: $48.5 Million for Crooked $hillary Clinton, $19,000 for Donald Trump
Hedge funds are playing a far bigger role in 2016 than in past elections—and Hillary Clinton has been the single biggest beneficiary.
Owners and employees of hedge funds have made $122.7 million in campaign contributions this election cycle, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics—more than twice what they gave in the entire 2012 cycle and nearly 14% of total money donated from all sources so far.
