Follow $$! Ask Reynolds about Foley $330,000 Contrib To His Committee...
It has been reported that not only did Foley give National Republican Congressional Committee chair Tom Reynolds (R-NY) a $100,000 contribution, but that Foley's total contributions to Reynolds' committee totaled $330,000.

How much was received after Foley got a "pass" on any further action against him?

Plus, will the $2.7 million that Foley has control over be distributed to other Repubs for use during the upcoming midterm elections?

1. .
Reynolds should lose his seat in NY(?) as well. It's pretty clear why Foley started to increase his contributions..

3. Has Reynolds Addressed What He Will Do With The $$$ From Foley?
You just know that receiving huge campaign contributions from Foley greased the tracks for a finding that the emails were "overly friendly" but no referral and action necessary.

SEX and MONEY are the fuel that makes the Repubs engine rev.

Arrogance leads to these types of situations --they just believed themselves to be invincibile.
And if they had any doubts, they could not resist the money Foley was bringing to the table.

If this is true Reynolds ass should be under investigation for bribery.
