Glazier disregards house rules and misuses campaign funds

By Margot Su

It was discovered on Thursday, December 19th, that 2020 candidate Logan Glazier was caught misusing campaign money. Glazier was seen early morning Thursday, walking back from the coffee shop to the bank. The Daily Derenberger interviewed the bank teller he spoke with shortly after he left, noting that Glazier had taken a hefty sum of campaign money in an envelope out of his bank for unknown purposes. The media trailed after Glazier as he walked into a Gucci store, and to their shock, discovered with horror of why he had performed this ‘mysterious’ cashout. Inside the store Glazier was seen reaching into his pockets for the envelope given by the bank teller to purchase such extravagant items.

He then left Gucci, and an unknown source close to Glazier informed the media that Gucci merchandise had not been his only purchase in the last month using campaign money; Louis Vuitton and Tesla had also been visited by Glazier and his campaign money.

To better verify the seriousness of this incident, media cited the source house.gov on campaign funding rules: “under House rules, except for certain permitted official uses discussed in the following section, campaign funds are to be used for bona fide campaign or political purposes only. Campaign funds are not to be used to enhance a Member's lifestyle, or to pay a Member's personal obligations.” Though personal spending may not seem like it would cause such a large issue, the interest group that funded Glazier’s campaign: The Growth Club, certainly did not wish for their donations to be put towards such materialistic expenses. This is a shock to the public, as the consistent pattern of growth Glazier had is rolling to a stop after this incident. If Glazier disregarded House rules, how can the audience verify that he won’t do this in the future?
