It’s the latest fad and I’m sure more are gonna jump abroad. A donor is suing the GOP for fraud, basically saying the GOP lied about repealing Obamacare. And it was only a few months ago, a DEM donor slapped a lawsuit against the DNC for rigging the system against Bernie Sanders.
What’s next, a lawsuit saying Congress stole someone’s milk money to pay for a desk screw in a defense bill? Look there’s snowflakes in the middle of summer- PB/TK
Republican donor sues GOP for fraud over ObamaCare repeal failure – By Brandon Carter / Aug 4 2017
The Virginian-Pilot reports that Bob Heghmann, a retired attorney in Virginia Beach, filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court on Thursday. The suit blasts the Republican Party, saying it “has been engaged in a pattern of Racketeering which involves massive fraud perpetrated on Republican voters and contributors as well as some Independents and Democrats.”
The lawsuit’s defendants include the Republican National Committee (RNC) and the Republican Party of Virginia, as well as Virginia’s two members of the RNC and the chairman of the state Republican Party, John Whitbeck.
As part of his suit, Heghmann argues that the Republican Party does not hold the same protection that members of Congress have against being sued for failing to fulfill campaign promises.
