his former hr director, david young, confirmed:
“Louis was a national fundraiser for the Republican Party. He asked employees for money. We gave him the money, and then he reciprocated by giving us big bonuses,” he told the Post. “When we got our bonuses, let’s just say they were bigger, they exceeded expectations — and that covered the tax and everything else.”

Others confirmed the details anonymously to the outlet, which the reporting backed up with records:

A Washington Post analysis of federal and state campaign finance records found a pattern of extensive donations by New Breed employees to Republican candidates, with the same amount often given by multiple people on the same day. Between 2000 and 2014, 124 individuals who worked for the company together gave more than $1 million to federal and state GOP candidates. Many had not previously made political donations, and have not made any since leaving the company, public records show. During the same period, nine employees gave a combined $700 to Democrats.

The New York Times matched this reporting, finding similarly:

A review of campaign finance records shows that over a dozen management-level employees at New Breed would routinely donate to the same candidate on the same day, often writing checks for an identical amount of money. One day in October 2014, for example, 20 midlevel and senior officials at the company donated a total of $37,600 to the campaign of Senator Thom Tillis, Republican of North Carolina, who was running to unseat a Democratic incumbent. Each official wrote a check for either $2,600, the maximum allowable donation, or $1,000.

This all looks quite bad for DeJoy. The clear implications of all this reporting is that DeJoy may have been running a criminal straw donor scheme, in which he essentially used company employees to donate to political candidates and circumvent disclosure laws and contribution limits. This isn’t some rarefied law or obscure statute — these schemes are prosecuted regularly.
“It is against the law to directly or indirectly reimburse someone for a political contribution." this, from the north carolina ag.

financial records show a pattern of such donations right the way back to 2003


trump surrounds himself with criminals, incites fear and violence and anger in the usa, rubbishes the trust people had in the scientific bodies like the cdc and fda, and seeks to destroy democracy all in the name of his own benefit. yeah, all the best people. so much winning.
 
Bet it was company money too, not from De-Joy's personal funds. What an idiot.

Im not afraid, violent or angry. All then democrats I know are. :)
 
What is it going to take for these dim wits who support Trump and the republicans criminal conduct to see the light???

I can ALMOST understand George W. Bush's actions because arguments can be made that he was pursuing national security goals and conservative tax policies, but there is no argument that can be made in defense of Trump and his cronies criminal behavior..

SAD!!!
