PETER BERNEGGER: Smurfing is criminal money laundering into political campaigns. Both Republicans and Democrats are robbing us blind. This is exactly why you're not seeing action, instead you're seeing blocking.

Complaint filed to @FEC on US Congressman Mike Johnson and his Treasurers, William Vanderbrook and Lisa Lisker, who have been caught Smurfing $5,808,595 into Johnson's campaign committees.

Complaint filed to

@FEC

on US Congressman Mike Johnson and his Treasurers, William Vanderbrook and Lisa Lisker, who have been caught Smurfing $5,808,595 into Johnson's campaign committees. Are you getting what is happening: money comes from the US Treasury, goes to let's say a daycare center....then some of that ends up in politicians' campaigns. Or an NGO (there are about 1.5 million of them), or a federal grant, or a federal contract, or SNAP benefits, or medicaid payouts, or federal block grants to states, or money to Ukraine, or other foreign aid - are you finally picking up on what is really happening? Smurfing is criminal money laundering into political campaigns. Both Republicans and Democrats are robbing us blind. This is exactly why you're not seeing action, instead you're seeing blocking.

and others have been tweeting it out for years. A cut of the US Treasury monies (your money) works it way into political campaigns - one way they do it is Smurfing. Which is structured money laundering, they are using computer bots to do it. Stealing the identities of senior citizens. You can read more about it at our website http://electionwatch.info scroll down and you'll find 4 articles about it. Smurfing is happening at the federal, state, county and even school board levels. Under 52 U.S.C. §§ 30102(a) and 30104(a), the treasurer is the legally responsible officer for authorizing, receiving, recording, and reporting committee contributions, and is therefore properly named where violations involving false contributor identification or contributions in the name of another under 52 U.S.C. § 30122 are alleged. Political Committee C00771246, JOHNSON LEADERSHIP FUND has accepted 2,772 Smurfed donor transactions totaling $2,214,635 from 682 unique Smurfing donors. That these transactions encompass 27% of the 10,258 available committee transactions and also being 15.1% of the $14,640,757full committee transaction valuation. Political Committee C00608695, MIKE JOHNSON FOR LOUISIANA has accepted 206,429 Smurfed donor transactions totaling $3,593,960 from 6,186 unique Smurfing donors. That these transactions encompass 87.8% of the 235,162 available committee transactions and also being 36.1% of the $9,963,678 full committee transaction valuation. The $5.8 million is just the tip of the iceberg for Mike Johnson, he's in deep with PACs where the real number I believe, at this point in time, is over $25 million.
