I'd probably rephrase that to what's bad for Republicans is bad for Democrats, but that'd be splitting hairs.
Investigate the crap out of her, and her chief of staff. Do it now, do it speedily, and put this to bed one way or the other. This should be the response any time a politician is implicated in shadiness while acting on your / our / whoever's behalf. I know it sucks to think you (universal you being used here) might have been wrong, but everyone gets duped from time to time, the easiest way to re-cover one's ass is to continue to stand up for the ideals that made you like them in the first place, even if it puts you at odds with who they turned out to be. :shrug:
Yeah, I'm OK with the FEC looking into the arrangement. I don't think they'll find anything because the now CoS detailed what they were doing and why in a very extensive explainer to supporters back in May 2018. But, sure, if they arranged things illegally, then let's see it come out and let the Brand New Congress and Justice Democrats fix it or deal with the consequences.
One odd thing is if the goal was grifting, why set up the PAC as a normal PAC subject to $5,000 per person contribution limits and not a SuperPac that could take unlimited contributions? Seems like if you want to steal money or divert it for personal use, let your friends give actually HUGE sums to your effort....
