An interesting bit of news hit the wire on Wednesday. Via DOJ, one Imaad Zuberi, a 49-year-old resident of Arcadia, California, agreed to plead guilty to a variety of illegal activities surrounding campaign contributions, political influence, and unregistered lobbying on behalf of foreign clients.
Zuberi has agreed to plead guilty to those charges at a later date, pursuant to a plea agreement. This kind of language in a charging situation normally indicates that the felon has agreed to help out with other cases. His sentencing recommendation will depend on how truthful and helpful he is to prosecutors at the DOJ.
Just who was he raising money for? And how much?
Zuberi is charged with making almost $1 million in illegal campaign contributions that included funneling money from foreign entities and individuals to influence U.S. elections. Remember that foreign contributions are illegal under U.S. law
Wow. Can't believe @BarackObama allowed a #ImaadZuberi, a foreign agent, to be the co-chair of his national finance committee for his inauguration🧐 Thank God for @realDonaldTrump's @TheJusticeDept finally holding these people accountable.https://t.co/64GV2GOIA8 pic.twitter.com/WtDrkRTiYi

Zuberi contributed $250,000 to governor-elect Terry McAuliffe’s campaign (Virginia governor), according to The Virginia Public Access Project. And we know that McAuliffe made a significant donation to Andrew McCabe’s wife’s election campaign during that time frame.
Assuming the highly likely probability that the Democrats knew this was coming down the pike, does this explain some of the frenetic activity on the part of the Democrats to dominate the headlines with lurid impeachment fake news? We know that they are scared of the IG’s report that is supposed to be released soon. Is there a lot more bad news coming for the Democrats? What does Zuberi know?
How much money was coming in from foreign sources to influence our elections in 2008, 2012 and 2016? How many millions were received from these sources by the Democrats during those elections?
Of course, as we all know, there was “not a smidgen of corruption” during the Obama years. Joe Biden told us so. We now have a case illustrating millions of foreign money going to Democratic candidates. Again, foreign contributions are illegal under U.S. law. How many dirty foreign bundlers are working on behalf of corrupt politicians from both parties?
This is why we have an impeachment inquiry going on. The entrenched politicians cannot afford to have PDJT shine sunlight on their corrupt operations. Such sunlight would dry up the swamp. This would end the quid pro quo activities of these politicians.
Another outlier for Wednesday was the impeachment delay the Democrats in the House announced today. Pelosi has already released her impeachment talking points, so they’re basically done. Why the delay? Does this announced prosecution figure into this at all?
Is this why Mitt Romney is screaming so loud right now? Is most of congress involved in this corruption? Is this indictment a “walls closing in” sort of thing? Will this induce more Deep State unforced errors?
