How ironic..

[SunsetBengal]

That Bernie Sanders, the free college for everyone, candidate, along with his wife, are being investigated for (wait for it...) bank fraud for the purpose of founding a for profit college!

Oh, the humanity!

[quotPolitico Magazine first reported the Sanders had hired lawyers to defend them in the probe. Sanders' top adviser Jeff Weaver told CBS News the couple has sought legal protection over federal agents' allegations from a January 2016 complaint accusing then-President of Burlington College, Ms. Sanders, of distorting donor levels in a 2010 loan application for $10 million from People's United Bank to purchase 33 acres of land for the institution. e][/quote]

But, there's more..

Quote:According to Politico, prosecutors might also be looking into allegations that Sen. Sanders' office inappropriately urged the bank to approve the loan.
Burlington attorney and Sanders supporter Rich Cassidy has reportedly been hired to represent Sen. Sanders. And high-profile Washington defense attorney Larry Robbins, who counseled I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, former chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, is protecting Jane Sanders.

I guess you could say that the Sanders couple is "feeling the Bern"..
