The Sanders campaign is at it again. Sending out misleading and inaccurate information about Clinton fundraising. This time they are not even pretending it was a mistake.

LINK: CNN Columbia, South Carolina (CNN)Bernie Sanders' campaign will clarify an incorrect fundraising email they sent Tuesday morning that claimed Hillary Clinton's campaign was charging "some donors" $27,000 to attend a fundraiser in Los Angeles on Monday night.

"It's no exaggeration to say this is the most important stretch of our campaign," reads the email. "Secretary Clinton's supporters are responding: her campaign is holding at least a dozen high-dollar fundraisers this week, including one last night where some donors paid $27,000 to attend."

If that wasn’t enough. Bernie Sanders used the very same language in his own big money fundraiser back in October. Yes exactly the same as what he is trying to smear Clinton with today.

CNN “Sanders, however, has headlined a fundraiser in Los Angeles. In October, the Vermont senator attended a reception at the Beverly Hills home of Linda and Syd Leibovitch. According to an invite, $2,700 was the top ticket price but co-hosts were asked to "raise" $10,000 per person, using the same terminology that Clinton had used for similar events.”
