Leftists "people with a lot of plans of what to do with other people money"

$25,000? They might as well have paid him in Minties.

People who conflate Russia with Australia are idiots.
With that out of the way... We are an ally.

I wouldn't be surprised if there were Americans have who made political donations to Australian parties over the years, we are countries that work closely together in almost every aspect from trade to defense to intelligence, we share a common history, have cultures that blend together in many aspects.

However... If Trump is going to be blasted for receiving donations, then so should all politicians in the USA.
Hold them all to the same standard or not at all.

Often I see double standards from both sides of the American political divide, it's hilarious to watch though.

Sorry guys I was drunk. I thought i was buying the recipe to KFC's secret herbs and spices from the Colnel himself.

$25,000 seemed like a bargain price to pay at the time.

25k makes up about what, .0001% of Senator Sanders' total campaign spending?

Oh, the horror. The fine is justified of course.

Dissapointing to hear, though seven volunteers from Australia seem to be largely inconsequential.

Foreign money in US elections is illegal.

Who is that 'enemy'?

Good thing the warmongering Bush/Clinton establishment were unable do drag the US into another war.

You do realize that multiple members of Trump's campaign team have already plead guilty to various crimes, more are being investigated, and soon Kushner and Ivanka are likely going to be indicted too? Multiple members of his team have incredibly suspicious ties to Russia, Trump himself is highly indebted to Russian oligarchs, and Trump seems to have a relatively close personal relationship with Putin (and Putin may possibly have blackmail material on Trump). This investigation isn't just about Russia's involvement in the election, it's now about Russia possibly having compromised the entire executive branch.

Because there isn't conclusive proof of it, sadly.
