Supplies For Caravan Aliens

O’Keefe
strikes again!
This
is a blockbuster undercover sting.
Project
Veritas exposed Texas Senate Democrat candidate Robert ‘Beto’
O’Rourke Thursday evening.
Far
left Democrat Robert ‘Beto’ O’Rourke is running against
Republican incumbent Ted Cruz in the U.S. Senate race in Texas.
It
appears Beto O’Rourke’s campaign may be illegally spending funds
on supplies for the Honduran migrant caravans.
The
campaign staffers acknowledge they are violating the law and discuss
various ways to conceal their efforts to buy supplies.
“Nobody
needs to know,” said one staffer. “Don’t ever repeat this,”
said another Beto campaign staffer.
Via
Project Veritas:
Project
Veritas Action Fund has released undercover video from current
Congressman and US Senate candidate Beto O’Rourke’s campaign. The
video exposes how his campaign staff appear to be illegally using
campaign resources to buy supplies and help transport Honduran
aliens. This is the eighth undercover video report Project Veritas
has released in a series revealing secrets and lies from political
campaigns in 2018.
Said
James O’Keefe, founder and president of Project Veritas Action:
“Charity
and helping your fellow man are things we applaud at Project Veritas
Action. The problem is, you can’t break the law when you do it.”
“Don’t
ever repeat this”
Featured
in this report are campaign staffers who work on Congressman
O’Rourke’s US Senate campaign discussing how they use campaign
resources to help Honduran aliens and transport them to airports and
bus stations. Said Dominic Chacon and AnaPaula Themann, who work on
O’Rourke’s campaign:
Chacon:
“The Hondurans, yeah… I’m going to go get some food right now,
like just some stuff to drop off…”
Themann:
“How did they get through?”
Chacon:
“Well I think they accepted them as like asylum-seekers… So, I’m
going to get some groceries and some blankets…”
Themann:
“Don’t ever repeat this and stuff but like if we just say that
we’re buying food for a campaign event, like the Halloween events…”
Chacon:
“That’s not a horrible idea, but I didn’t hear anything. Umm,
we can wait until tomorrow for that.”
Themann:
“Well that’s exactly the food we need. And I will just mark it
as, I do have dozens of block walkers.”
Using
“pre-paid credit cards” … “some sort of violation”
A
Project Veritas Action attorney reviewed the footage and assessed:
“The
material Project Veritas Action Fund captured shows campaign workers
covering up the true nature of spending of campaign funds and
intentionally misreporting them. This violates the FEC’s rules
against personal use and misreporting. It also violates Section 1001,
making a false statement to the federal government. The FEC
violations impose civil penalties, including fines of up to $10,000
or 200 percent of the funds involved. Violations of Section 1001 are
criminal and include imprisonment of up to five years.”
Chacon
and Themann also explain how they go about concealing their use of
campaign funds for alien support purposes:
Themann:
“There’s actually stores that just mark it as ‘food’ they
don’t mark different types… at Albertsons, on the receipts, it
marks it just based off of brand…”
Chacon:
“I think we can use that with those [campaign pre-paid] cards to
buy some food, all that s**t can be totally masked like, oh we just
wanted a healthy breakfast!”
