I made a joke about Bernie taking his campaign money to buy a house. He said that kind of stuff doesn’t happen because of FEC rules. So if you guys can provide me with links of politicians taking campaign money I would appreciate the help!

He funnels campaign money through ad buying companies run by his friends. He also bought copies of his own book through his campaign. That’s where the money for his house came from. Book deals are a common scam for politicians to profit without looking outright corrupt.
The way it works is that the publishing company gives you a large cash advance. You buy the book using other people’s money through your campaign, giving the illusion that there is a lot of interest in it. The publishing companies are owned by or contributed to by powerful people with lots of money.
The bribe money gets laundered this way, and it’s all perfectly legal. Ask the cuck why Bernie railed against Hillary’s corruption but then dropped out and endorsed her near the end. Ask him if he’s going to do the same with Joe after watching him lie to his face on the debate stage.
Judging by how he’s still hanging on even though Biden is smoking him, I’d say he’s angling for an upgrade to his lakehouse.
