Busted! Clinton Campaign Director Violates Campaign Finance Law On Hidden Camera [VIDEO]

An undercover video filmed by James O’Keefe and Project Veritas purportedly shows Molly Barker — the national marketing director for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign — “knowingly and intentionally” violating campaign finance law.

Per Project Veritas:

During Clinton’s kickoff campaign event at Roosevelt Island, a Canadian citizen with no affiliation to Project Veritas Action attempted to make a donation to the Clinton campaign by purchasing a Hillary shirt. Barker knew that this was illegal, a fact which was confirmed by Clinton’s national Compliance Manager Erin Tibe, yet proceeded to process the contribution… Barker facilitated a straw man transaction where the Canadian citizen gave cash to an American citizen who subsequently purchased the shirt for the Canadian under Barker’s direction. Thus, Barker who was fully aware of the law didn’t merely look the other way like Tibe did, rather, she actually facilitated election illegalities.

WATCH:

A Clinton official told Time Magazine Monday that “the campaign is confident it upheld the law.”
