Ocasio-Cortez and Chief of Staff Face Five Years in Prison for FEC Crimes (VIDEO)

According to a complaint filed with the Federal Election Committee Monday (FEC), two PACs founded by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s top aide, Saikat Chakrabarti funneled over $ 1 million in political donations into two of his own private companies, reported the Washington Examiner.

So much for Ocasio-Cortez’s promise to reduce “dark money” in politics!

According to a complaint filed by government watchdog group National Legal and Policy Center, it appears Chakrabarti set up his two companies for the sole purpose of hiding how the donations were used.

Chakrabarti founded the two PACs in question in 2016 and 2017.

Brand New Congress was founded in 2016 and Justice Democrats was founded in 2017 with the end goal of getting ultra progressive candidates elected to Congress — ultimately these two PACs helped radical Communist Ocasio-Cortez win a Congressional seat last November.

Chakrabarti AND Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are in SERIOUS TROUBLE!

According to the Daily Caller Foundation AOC and her Chief of Staff may face five years in JAIL!

FBN’s Melissa Francis joined Tucker Carlson to discuss the Ocasio-Cortez funding scandal.
