From Kindergarten to Graduate Schools, Americans are brainwashed with the blabber that politicians are representatives of the people. And when they are running for office, candidates tell the tale to voters that when elected, it is the needs of We the People they will be fighting for.
However, without being accused of being woke/racist, in these times of moral dementia sweeping across Dumfukistan, it is “Dark Money” from the money mob that buys off the politicians from the two party crime syndicate that is in full control.
The “Dark Money” from non-profit organizations that are known to traditionally align with Democrats, spent more than $1.5 billion in 2020 on their favorite candidates, compared to the $900 million that groups seen as favorable to Republicans send to their hopefuls.
The New York Times, which first reported on the donations, said the so-called “Dark Money” started to be embraced by Democrats who were opposed to former President Trump. These nonprofit groups could be vehicles for mega-donors to “make multimillion-dollar outlays in total secrecy” due to disclosure laws, the report said.
Two Faced
Democrats have long spoken out against these kinds of donations to Republican candidates and tried to frame the problem as an example of how politicians can be bought and sold.
A dark money group aligned with Sen. Chuck Schumer pulled in $92 million from anonymous donors to elect Democrats, according to a report by Fox News. The report said that while the group was pulling in cash—from 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020—Schumer and other Democrats were calling out Republicans for their use of dark money.
“Majority Forward is kind of a dark money empire that the Democrat party really doesn’t want to talk about, especially Chuck Schumer,” Parker Thayer, an investigator at the Capital Research Center, told the network.
He continues:
“It’s not just them either. They control a network of four different dark money nonprofit groups as well, and all of this money eventually goes to Democrat-aligned PACs, and the initial donors behind it are essentially untraceable.”
The Times pointed out that the Democrats’ “newfound success” in pocketing these funds “exposes the stock tension between their efforts to win elections and their commitment to cartel secretive political spending by the superrich.” The paper said nonprofits are not obligated to abide by the same transparency rules as political parties or campaigns.
TREND FORECAST: As we reported on 20 April 2021, the “WALL ST. GANG SPENT $3B ON 2020 ELECTION CAMPAIGNS.” In this case, Republicans got 47 percent of the dough and Democrats, which play the “liberal” line, pulled in 53 percent of the money.
Plain and simple, without big money behind a candidate running for office, the chances of beating one of the two party mobsters is slim and none. (See “POLS EMBRACE CRYPTO CAMPAIGN FUNDING” and “HOW BIG TECH MAINTAINS ITS MONOPOLY.”)
