Heard you on NPR yesterday and was fascinated by this! So, thank you for doing this AMA!

What was the most egregious use of campaign funds that you found? Which campaign was, in your opinion, the biggest concern?

He left office in 1993 and is still spending.

Holy fucking shit! Was his campaign account THAT massive? Are they allowed to invest those funds and use the capital gains or income from investing?

Thank you Chris and the rest of the team for all of your work on uncovering and reporting on this!

Thanks! So, campaign accounts are allowed to invest using donated campaign funds. I wonder if there are any limitations to what a campaign is allowed to invest in, or how much of the account is allowed to be used for that.

We seriously need some goddamn campaign finance reform.
