Multiple liberal outlets fumed at how conservative donors have funded groups who have supported lockdown protests across the country. But they avoided reporting how the left is outspending the right in this election cycle to outside groups by over $100 million. Records reveal that all top liberal donors listed by Open Secrets (59) spent a whopping $191,827,021 combined so far on liberal groups. To contrast, all the top conservative donors listed by Open Secrets (44) only spent $87,767,208 combined on conservative groups. That’s a $104,059,813 disparity. It’s not even close.

I often see news of how the GOP has a huge war chest compared ro rge Commies.

Don’t be lulled into a false sense of comfort.

They have so many sub rosa money channels and PACs that are open $ taps. All done lawfully (wink wink) just around the edges of the law.

I used to be opposed to any tax hike on upper class persons and others. Not anymore I think they should pay more taxes big time. This is just another indication that the wealthy are not paying there fair share of taxes because if they were this would not happen. The media is nothing more than Democrat party slime liar filth. Most corporate charities are liberal in orientation. and most upper class voters vote for Hillary last time out. This to me proves that they are not paying enough taxes.

That’s because more than a few Republicans, like the Democrats only turn out for Presidential Election years.

Apparently the government just set that limit at $75k/yr.

No it didn’t. 2018 was actually pretty terrible for the Rats in terms of the Senate and Governorships. If they were going to win this massive blowout, they wouldn’t have lost FL, IN, MO and ND in the Senate.

The GOP also kept FL, GA and MD on the Governor’s side, which they would have absolutely lost in a true wave.

Look at the congressional races. This is exactly why we’re dealing with Pelosi now. Soros’ plan was to flip the house, he did.

Good question....I am speaking in general terms. When and if it becomes possible to legislate this then we will make a determination.

RINO Trump-hating Maryland Governor Hogan almost does not count as a Republican. I wonder if he was elected to the position of head of the national governors association because he is a Trump hating Republican. If this organization alternates between having a republican and then a democrat governor, it is almost as if there were three Democrats in a row.

He certainly seems to be enjoying the limelight going on national TV etc.

“That’s because more than a few Republicans, like the Democrats only turn out for Presidential Election years.”

Ain’t that the truth. If so-called conservatives got off their fat asses and voted in schoolboard elections, liberals would NOT control public schools.
