The FBI is still "actively” investigating South Dakota's EB5 “citizenship for sale" program. The investigation "is active but I can't say anything more about it," FBI Minneapolis Division Chief Counsel Kyle Loven told "The Washington Post" Wednesday.
Federal officials had previously refused to confirm or deny that the investigation was ongoing.
South Dakota Democratic Party executive director Zach Crago stated: “Mike Rounds is clearly in trouble. His citizenship-for-sale scheme resulted in high profile bankruptcies, lawsuits, audits, legislative hearings, and now a confirmed ‘active’ investigation by the FBI.The fact is Mike Rounds ran the EB5 program out of the Governor’s Office, and he’s been covering up his role in the EB5 scandal ever since.”
In the hard-fought Senate race, every commercial for Rick Weiland should use the words FBI and Rounds.
The secret is repetition. Don't let voters forget.
