Bernie and Jane Sanders are under criminal investigation for a deal which resulted in a 10 million property deal (https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2017/05/17/burlington-college-campus-purchase-still-coming-back-haunt-jane-sanders)). Jane was in charge of Burlington College. She lied on loan documents to obtain a loan and then used that loan to buy property. The property was bought from the Catholic Church in Vermont and this Church just so happens to be in debt for a sexual abuse scandal.
I have done limited research on this and results on what happened hasn't been easy for me to find. But get this. One of the head priests in this Church was a Kenneth Angell (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Angell)). This is from his wikipedia page, 'In 1989 he promised to "take care of it" when a Providence priest was accused of misconduct with boys while working at a Haitian orphanage'.
WTF is that, how is this topic of Haitian orphanages popping up in a Bernie Sanders criminal investigation about loans.
To sum up what happened. The Sanders helped to steal 10 million dollars and then funneled it off to a Church which has a proven record of sexual abuse of children and sexual abuse of children in Haiti.

The blood of Christ is on ALL of our hands. That was the entire point of his death (i.e. his SACRIFICE) that you anti-semites seem to miss. "For just as through the disobedience of the one man [Adam] the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man [Jesus] the many will be made righteous." Romans 5:19 (read the whole chapter if you need more explanation.) so before you start casting blame on one group of people, you need to take a long, hard look in the mirror, into your wicked heart, and into the Bible.

Excellent @Judgejewdy! Romans was today's reading at Catholic mass.
"For if many died through one man's trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift in the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many."
