In 2022, Hillary Clinton settled a campaign finance violation related to the funding of the Steele Dossier, which was reported as 'legal services'. She paid a fine but faced no charges. The dossier, financed by Clinton and the DNC, was later revealed to be false opposition research. Despite the controversy, the Clinton campaign received only minor penalties. Additionally, the FEC fined the Clinton campaign for the dossier classification but did not fine Trump for a similar classification.
