Feinstein: ‘Wiped out’ by operative’s theft

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) said she was “wiped out” by fraud allegedly committed by Kinde Durkee, who served as treasurer for her and numerous other Democrat’s campaigns.“‘I was wiped out too, we don’t know how much,’ said Feinstein, indicating the losses in campaign funds could run into hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of dollars. Reps. Susan Davis and Loretta Sanchez, now appear to be victims as well.” They suck at handling their own money as well as the country’s.

  • Maybe she can make that money back. I hear that a Nigerian prince needs some help moving some money out of his country.

  • How much do you want to bet Feinstein has that so called stolen cash in a Offshore account someplace?

  • Good, now Feinstein and the other Democrooks know how the taxpayers feel. Dianne, don't look at it as a theft; just think of it as an unlegislated redistribution of wealth.

  • What is this world coming too? A lying piece of crap thief is now complaining because another lying piece of crap thief stole money from them? What did Feinstein, Sanchez and all the other politicians who hired Durkee expect? Someone to be honest when they knew how much these clowns were stealing out of the taxpayers pocket?

    • What was probably stolen was the undeclared cash donations that they get from offshore supporters like Hsu.

  • “‘I was wiped out too, we don’t know how much,’ said Feinstein, indicating the losses in campaign funds could run into hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of dollars.
    Possibly as much as eleventy dollars? Oh the humanity.

  • Dianna is another liberal bullshitter. She is loaded to the gills, so a little theft like this ain't gonna stop her. Shes playing the victim card.

    • If Feinstein lost a bag of wooden nickles she would scream she was robbed. I really liked this article, it should happen to more democRATS.

  • As far as I'm concerned they should make her treasurer for all the Democrats. That would be one redistribution of wealth I could go for.
