Oops. BTW, this is the filmaker of 2016: Obama's America.

"(Reuters) - The conservative author and filmmaker Dinesh D'Souza pleaded guilty on Tuesday to a campaign finance law violation, averting a trial that had been expected to begin the same day in Manhattan federal court.

D'Souza pleaded guilty to one criminal count of making illegal contributions in the names of others. A second count concerning the making of false statements is expected to be dismissed once the defendant is sentenced."

Someone actually admits to wrongdoing for once.

Yes, very openly. Unlike Ted Cruz, who is blaming - the government.

D'Souza's reaction:

At the court hearing Tuesday, Dâ��Souza said he knew what he did was against the law.
â��I knew that causing a campaign contribution to be made in the name of another was wrong and something the law forbids,â�� Dâ��Souza said, according to Newsday. â��I deeply regret my conduct.â��

Cruz's reaction:
Dâ��Souzaâ��s case has become a cause celebre for conservative activists and lawmakers, who have complained that he was singled out by the Justice Department because of his views, including the apocalyptic film â��2016: Obamaâ��s America.â��

â��Dinesh Dâ��Souza, who did a very big movie criticizing the president, is now being prosecuted by this Administration,â�� Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said in a portion of a January CBS interview edited out by the network but posted online by Cruzâ��s office.

So, what about the Democrats that were investigated? - Were they also targeted?

Or is it only targeting when a Republican is investigated?

Can you be specific or cite an article? - NPC

There are a few listed in the Fox article - that was posted, for starters.

It's not like the government has only investigated Republicans. I'm pretty sure that's something we can all agree on.

Yes, agree. - NPC

It does seem more prevalent now, though, perhaps because of the Internet? Who knows? It's a good thing, though. Everyone should be held accountable if they're not on the up and up.

Don't mess with King O or you get yourself investigated. - and penalized the hard way.

and this is freedom? Seems any public person who dares to embarrass the King gets into trouble somehow. And the worshippers just simply bow down to this. Amazing.

So you bought it then? - Just like he planned

You see, he had a scheme about this to plead not guilty at first so he could cry Victim, then have all the sympathizers riled up about his "victimization." I believe the real victims are those that actually believe this jerk.

"Ms. Joseph was recorded as saying that Mr. D’Souza had told her that if he were charged he might plead guilty, but would initially plead not guilty because that “gives him a window of opportunity to get his story out there,” the government said. Ms. Joseph had no comment, her lawyer said."

If your premise is correct, D'Souza is pretty clever. - sm

Remember Nazi Germany.

He's not clever enough to commit fraud without - getting caught.

[ In Reply To ..]
I guess his plan didn't pan out.

I hope he meets a few - "takers" in prison

He might have a revelation or two, but of course he will no doubt go to a country club type place with others of his ilk.

Be careful what you wish for. - KARMA

I never saw "2016: Obama's America" until today (link below). Someone here on MTStars suggested that we see that first before the newest movie. Now that I've seen it, I'm prepared to see the new one. D'Souza makes 3 predictions near the end of the movie, which he made in 2012, I believe. Two have come true. The third is nearly true as of now. There is also mention made of a "United States of Islam." Could this actually be ISIS? The movie is slow at times, but it is educatio ...

Leftists have lost the ability to debate. They are used to shouting down people, shutting down discussion, and resorting to ad hominem attacks. “Racist!” is their version of discussing ideas.

I just found out my 2nd cat in 10 years likely has a cryptococcal fungal infection. The 1st one I did the whole treatment, surgery, biopsy, blood titers, fluconazole (150 bucks a month for a year), cost me over $2000. She got better, but about 6 months later, it came back and I could not afford to treat her anymore. I put all that cost on my credit cards. Well fast forward, I now have another cat with the same thing. Saw the vet (different one) and he wants to do a biops ...

The Ferguson cop is reportedly living in hiding. These Baltimore cops will never get their lives, reputations or careers back. All of this, of course, has flowed directly from the disgustingly prejudicial attitudes, knee-jerk statements, etc. coming from the White House with respect to the police, in which there has also been absolutely no condemnation of the most outrageous and egregious behaviors of BLM and others. It's no wonder that police departments are having difficulty ...

My husband had terrible lower back pain and went to the doctor last week and was told he most likely had sciatica. He was given a prescription for hydrocodone/APAP and told he could also use ibuprofen and to try resting and using ice for relief. It has been over a week and my husband is still in pain. I know sciatica can be terrible, but the thing iis that my husband is making no effort to try to get better, at least that's how it seems to me. When I ask him if the hydrocodone is ...

Details about tea party bias claims against the IRS could remain secret because current and former agency officials say their lives are in danger if they publicly testify about the case.
