  • FEC filings reveal that John Ratcliffe leveraged campaign money to cover a personal expense and direct money to his family after leaving Congress.

The article from Forbes, published on December 1, 2024, discusses former President Donald Trump's appointment of John Ratcliffe as CIA Director and the subsequent scrutiny over Ratcliffe's use of campaign funds. Ratcliffe, who previously served as a Congressman, has been criticized for allegedly using campaign money for personal expenses, including luxury travel and accommodations. The piece details how watchdog groups and political opponents have raised concerns about these expenditures, questioning their legality and ethics. Despite these allegations, Ratcliffe and his supporters argue that all expenses were legitimate campaign costs. The article also touches on the broader implications of such financial practices in politics, the ongoing investigations by the Federal Election Commission (FEC), and the potential impact on Ratcliffe's reputation and the Trump administration's image.
