Trump: Fines Paid by Clinton Campaign, DNC Show Corruption

The fines paid by Hillary Clintonโ€™s 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) show corruption, former President Donald Trump says.

The Clinton campaign and the DNC agreed to pay a combined $113,000 to the Federal Election Commission (FEC), according to documents made public on March 30, after the commission found probable cause that the entities had violated federal law by describing payments that ultimately went to the Fusion GPS research group as going toward legal services and consulting.

Fusion used the funds, funneled through the Perkins Coie law firm, to pay for the compilation of a dossier riddled with unsubstantiated claims saying that Trump and his campaign had ties to Russian actors ahead of the 2016 election.

Clinton was the Democrat nominee in the election, while Trump, the Republican nominee, won the presidency.

The operation โ€œwas done to create โ€ฆ a hoax funded by the DNC and the Clinton campaign,โ€ Trump said. โ€œThis corruption is only beginning to be revealed, is un-American, and must never be allowed to happen again.โ€

โ€œWhere do I go to get my reputation back?โ€ he added.

The Clinton campaign and the DNC didnโ€™t respond to requests for comment.

According to conciliation agreements the parties entered into with the FEC, they didnโ€™t admit to misreporting the expenditures that funded the dossierโ€™s creation. But they agreed to, in the future, abide by federal law that mandates reporting and accurately describing the purpose of disbursements of more than $200 per year.

Additionally, the election commission may, on the request of anyone filing a complaint, review compliance with the agreements. If the commission comes to believe the agreement has been violated, it can trigger a civil action in federal court.

Trump recentlyย filed a federal suitย against Clinton, the DNC, and others who helped create and disseminate the dossier, such as former government employee Bruce Ohr and Glenn Simpson, an ex-Wall Street Journal reporter who co-founded Fusion.
