Another Corrupt Democrat - Nothing New

California State Sen. Ron Calderon pleaded not guilty Monday to federal charges that he accepted $100,000 in bribes in return for pushing legislation, charges that could send him to federal prison for years.

Calderon, a member of a powerful Democratic political dynasty, stood before U.S. District Judge Suzanne Segal with his handcuffed hands clasped in front of him and entered pleas to 24 counts involving various forms of fraud along with conspiracy, money laundering and aiding the filing of false tax returns.

He and his brother were indicted on Feb. 21, four months after an Al Jazeera investigation published a leaked affidavit that revealed Ron Calderon had accepted $88,000 in bribes from an undercover agent. After Al Jazeera published the affidavit, Calderon filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court asking a judge to sanction the federal prosecutors responsible for the leak.

Calderon surrendered to authorities Monday. He was expected to be released the same day on a $50,000 bond, surrendering his passport and agreeing to remain within the continental United States.

If convicted of all charges, the sentences could total nearly 400 years.

He bonds out at $50,000. How much for the movie guy that Obama put in jail to bond out for a $20,000 charge? Something stinks here.

Because they sold their souls/credibility to get an INCOMPETENT COMMUNITY ORGANIZER elected and they are in protection mode to protect Hillary chances in 2016. There will be a ban on any Democrat corruption story that might taint Hillary's campaign in the eyes of the voting public, they want the 2016 election to be all about her gender just like the 2008 and 2012 election were all about Obama skin color. Any story that risk their Leftwingnut agenda will be buried under a rock in Valley County Montana where they know a cultist ex lawman will stand guard over it. :wink:

This is what I was talking about. Seems like a big difference on bail money to a lesser crime if it was a crime.

D’souza was indicted in late January for election fraud for allegedly using straw donors to contribute $20,000 to the losing New York U.S. Senate campaign of his friend, Wendy Long. Facing a maximum of two years in prison, D’Souza pled not guilty and made $500,000 bail.
