He’d misused $250,000 in campaign funds in the most banal way imaginable.
Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-golf course), a man so flagrantly crooked that his admission that he may have committed war crimes in Iraq was only a secondary political scandal, said Friday night that he is quitting Congress at the end of the holidays.
Hunter’s resignation follows his decision to plead guilty to allegedly misusing $250,000 in campaign funds; it is entirely unrelated to his having been part of a military unit that he said killed hundreds of civilians, “probably women and children.”
Hunter faces 60 criminal charges including conspiracy, theft of campaign money and wire fraud. He is accused of using campaign funds to pay for vacations, routine household expenses, expensive dinners and Uber rides before trying to cover it up.
Like President Trump, Hunter frequently called the case against him a political witch hunt. He was one of the first elected officials to publicly support Mr. Trump during his 2016 run for president.
Claims the federal investigation into his spending was because of his support for President Donald Trump.
Just like TRUMP, Hunter is a Corrupt Criminal who needs to be removed from any office of trust.
