FBI Investigating Jane Sanders For Bank Fraud? Login/Join

Almost exactly a year ago, Burlington College announced its closure over a “crushing weight of debt” it had accrued under the leadership of Jane Sanders. The school borrowed heavily during her years as its president, as Sanders planned an expansion of the campus and aimed to eventually fill the gaps through fundraising, but the donors never materialized, leading her to resign in 2011.

The issue arose in the final weeks of the presidential primary campaign of her husband Bernie, and raised questions about her judgment and that of her husband.

The Daily Caller and other outlets report that the FBI and FDIC have conducted a series of interviews that point to an investigation into the Burlington’s finances and certain representations made by Sanders about contributions:

Allegations Jane Sanders falsified loan documents to expand the campus of Burlington College, which collapsed into bankruptcy in May 2016, swirled more than a year prior. The Daily Caller News Foundation first broke the news of the allegations against Mrs. Sanders in March 2015.

The Department of Justice and the FBI will not confirm the existence of an investigation, but recent interviews conducted by officials from the FBI and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), independently confirmed to TheDCNF, suggest an investigation is ongoing.

Sanders stated in a 2010 loan application she had secured $2.6 million in promised donations to pay for the land purchase, which helped secure a $6.5 million loan from the People’s United Bank. Only $676,000 ever materialized over the next four years and the college defaulted on the loans, eventually going bankrupt in May 2016.

The DoJ is refusing to comment on whether an investigation is open or not, as per its usual policy

Jane Sanders seems to know as much about financial responsibility as Bernie Sanders

Rhetorical question I assume?

Can you imagine what would have happened to the country had Bernie had the pen (to sign)?

She single handedly drove that college into the ground, and IIRC got a golden parachute in the process. I though there was scant media coverage of it at the time.

After all the pontificating, turns out they are just common greedy criminals. Be wary of the those who preach if you are rich you are evil, know best what to do with your money, while their hands are fleecing the publics wallet for their personal gain. Socialism in action from these two.

Bernie is a tool. He knew fully well he was never going to get the nomination. He knew what his role was. He and the entire Democratic Party were caught off guard by the amount of support he received.
Had he been the nominee I for one think he'd be President Sanders right now. His rally's had every bit as much enthusiasm as did Trumps. Had he gained the nomination it would have gained even more steam. The democrats fucked it up more ways than you can count.

Bernie has never earned a paycheck in his life. And he thinks everyone else should have the same opportunity.

You are probably right about "earned", but he did receive his first paycheck at age 40, when he was elected mayor. Prior to that he lived off other people and got a small income by writing socialistic articles for various left wing magazines and newspapers.

No matter how overdue and legitimate the Sanders investigation may be, the MSM will paint it as a witch hunt and retaliation by Republicans.

Any investigation is better then nothing. And the fact they hired a lawyer tells me they're shitting themselves.

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

The story I saw included Bernie in the investigation, claiming he pressured the bank into approving the loan.
