Proof Politco is lying? Proof the FEC is wrong? Sorry, Hilary is in fact taking the money meant for down-ballot races and using it to avoid fundraising limits.

Guess what kids? Misconstruing perfectly legal arrangements as "money laundering" in order to make it seem as though she's doing something illegal, as well as making it look like she's taking money when in FACT it is being transferred to the DNC, does nothing for Bernard, for you, or for Democrats!

Legality and ethics are two different things. The fund is being promoted as a way to raise money for down ticket races, but it is in FACT being sent to the DNC and being used on Clinton's campaign with the other candidates only getting 1%. Hilary is taking 99% of the profits. Money from single donors are being used for her way past the legal limit. This "fund" was created for that specific purpose.

The money going to the DNC is not being used for the Hillary campaign. And don't you thing that the damn DNC would have a vested interest in getting and using funding for down-ballot races? Or would that make too much more sense than "money-laundering" as Bernie wants to call it? The Hillary Victory Fund is operating well within ethical and legal boundaries.
Also, can you tell me how much Bernard has raised for down-ballot interests? How much of a place does he have to criticize this arrangement? Hmm.
Cruz arguing with a Trump supporter pretty much confirmed everything I ever thought about most Trump supporters. Uneducated, racist, white trash.
I'm not white or trash, im not racist nor uneducated and how ironic of you considering Ted Cruz supports a Pastor and supporter who wants to kill the LGBT, Ted Cruz also accepted his endorsement but yea Trump supporters are worst according to you

The money IS being used for her campaign, that literally what the article is about. They state the fund has spent $20+ million directly on her campaign. That's what the FEC filing states. So let's not deny facts. She's using them to subsidize her own operation.
And Bernie has apparently given more than Hilary since she has only given 600k through this fund and he has given more.

Good job accounting for one third of the Hillary Victory Fund! Now how about the third that Politico doesn't even know much about, as far as where it's going? How about the still other third that is going directly to the DNC, a party that obviously has a vested interest in using that money for down-ballot support?

The state Dems already said they've gotten no money from the fund. Regardless of whether or not Politco knows where it went. Bernie is alleging that some of the money went straight to HFA, bypassing even the DNC. It really doesn't matter what the DNC's vested interest is if the money not being put in a FUND for down ballot and is actively being spent on Hilary staff, ads, and other campaign expenses.
And it doesn't matter how much Bernie raised. This is about Hilary funneling money to support her own campaign under false pretenses.

Let me do some more correcting here! Obviously a lot will go straight to the HVF since it has the express purpose of helping Hillary win as one of its main reasons for existing, but bout a third of all money used ends up with the DNC and is not being used for Hillary. That means the DNC's interest in down ballot candidates kind of does matter. And really, let's be clear here - the Democratic primaries aren't even all decided yet, so obviously quite a lot of Dem candidates will not have received a dime until everyone gets ready for the general elections.
But anyway, yeah, it does matter how much Bernie has raised (interesting how you back down on that point now that I've linked to evidence that he's done, um, nothing). He's trying to completely misconstrue the operations of the Hillary Victory Fund and their relationship with the DNC, in no small part to draw attention away from his complete lack of party support.

Let's Correct the Record:
1. Only about $5 million of the $60 million raised went to the DNC. Don't know where you're getting your numbers from.
2. Hilary is only supposed to be getting $2700 per contributor. She is abusing the fund to double dip and collect more money from individual donors. A lot is not supposed be "obviously" going to her, there are limits in place. 2/3 is not supposed to be going to her, under the law it is a separate fund.
