Clinton debt larger than reported
According to an article:

"Hillary Clinton's campaign debt at the end of March was bigger than it appeared because she didn't list the $5 million she loaned herself,
a campaign finance watchdog group reported this afternoon.

Clinton, in her filing with the Federal Election Commission, reported that her campaign had $9 million in cash on hand as of March 30, and $10 million in debts.


Including the loan would put her debt as of March 30 at $15.3 million, the nonpartisan group said."

3. Ok does that actually trigger a falsified reporting fine from the FEC
She can't just say it doesn't count as "its her money" because she classified it as and official "loan" in a previous filing, so it is an unreported or falsified debt load.

6. I was wondering why she only had around $10K in debt to herself.
With a $5M loan outstanding.
