What's the penalty for violating campaign-finance laws, eh? Depends on the party

What's the penalty for violating campaign-finance laws, eh? 

Depends on which party.  If you're Trump, you get charged with felonies for something that was never a felony-class crime.  But if you're a Democrat (Hilliary Clinton...)

Here's the Associated Press (a reliably Democrat-loving site) from March 31, 2022:

(AP) — Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee have agreed to pay $113,000 to settle a Federal Election Commission investigation into whether they violated campaign finance law by misreporting spending on research that eventually became the infamous Steele dossier.

That’s according to documents sent to a foundation that filed an administrative complaint in 2018 accusing the Clinton campaign of misreporting payments made to a law firm during the 2016 campaign to obscure the [reason for the] spending.

The Clinton campaign hired Perkins Coie, which then hired Fusion GPS to conduct opposition research on Republican candidate Donald Trump’s ties to Russia. But on FEC forms, the Clinton campaign classified the spending as legal services.

“By intentionally obscuring their payments through Perkins Coie, and failing to publicly disclose the true purpose of those payments,” the campaign and DNC “were able to avoid publicly reporting on their statutorily required FEC disclosure forms the fact that they were paying Fusion GPS to perform opposition research on Trump with the intent of influencing the outcome of the 2016 presidential election,” the complaint read.

The Clinton campaign and DNC had argued that the payments had been described accurately, but agreed to settle the complaint without conceding to avoid further legal costs.

The Clinton campaign agreed to a civil penalty of $8,000 and the DNC $105,000.

So the Clinton campaign paid a whopping $8,000 to settle the charge of violating campaign-finance laws.  Say, isn't that what Alvin Bragg charged Trump with (because the DOJ refused to)?  Of course the DOJ never charged sainted Hilliary with 34 felonies for violating campaign-finance laws, which is why the Democrats got Bragg to do it, charging him with violating a state records law.  

But then, rules are just...different...for Democrats, eh?

Two sets of laws, citizen.
