Hedge-fund billionaire Paul Singer’s decision to throw his financial weight behind the donor-class 2016 favorite, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)79% , has sparked fresh questions about Rubio’s coziness with the financial interests funding his career.
Singer was a major financial force behind the Rubio-Obama amnesty and immigration expansion push in 2013.
As Politico reported at the time, Singer “quietly go[t] involved in the fight for immigration reform, making a six-figure donation… to the National Immigration Forumâ€â€” a George Soros-backed organization that lobbied for Rubio’s legislation to issue 33 million green cards to foreign nationals in the span of a single decade. The announcement of Singer’s endorsement highlights an intra-party tension that has emerged with new strength since Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI)58% ’s inauguration as Speaker of the House.
There is a growing chasm between the more than 9 in 10 GOP voters, who want to see future immigration rates cut, versus GOP donors that are desperately seeking to install leaders in the White House and Congress who will further expand the nation’s already record breaking immigration rates that are transforming the country’s economy and electorate.
Upon the announcement of the Singer’s decision, GOP frontrunner Donald Trump tweeted:
I see Marco Rubio just landed another billionaire to give big money to his Superpac, which are total scams. Marco must address him as ‘SIR’!
Even though Rubio’s donors stand to make an enormous profit from a surge of low-wage migrant labor, Rubio has repeatedly denied that his wealthy backers have influenced his agenda. “People buy into my agenda. I don’t buy into theirs,†Rubio has said.
However, a review of several of Rubio’s top donors reveals that many of them have benefited from the Floridian’s rise to power.

All of our leadership appears to have been sold to globalists.
All of them.
Facts:
1) Except in the very odd/exceptional election year of 1964, the Dems haven’t cracked 50% of the whites in a Presidential election since 1932.
2) Once the ‘64 election was over, the Dems understood that they would never win another Presidential election again unless the Republicans REALLY screwed up...or unless they changed the electorate in a dramatic way.
3) The Dems, courtesy of Bobby Kennedy who wrote the law, and Teddy Kennedy who pushed it in the Senate, passed the 1965 Immigration Act. That law dramatically reduced immigration from our then-traditional large sources of immigrants - England, Ireland, Holland, Germany, etc. - and replaced them with vast numbers of Turd Worlders...whom everyone knows vote around 80% for Dems, and will continue to do so for the rest of their lives, as new immigrants have traditionally done.
4) As a result of the ‘65 Act, and due to the Dem’s outright lying in ‘86 regarding an effective (or any) fence, there are now probably 30 - 40 million illegals in this nation. Note that the (probably low-ball) figure in 2005 was 11 million...we have 2-3 million come in every year, so simple math says that the number is actually somewhere between 31 and 41 million). If any substantial portion of these people ever become citizens, then the Dems will have accomplished a complete shift of the electorate, and will be virtually invincible on the national level. Every state will become like California, both politically and economically - which is to say, overwhelming Dem and broke. But at least if you don’t like California now, you can leave for a better place without much trouble - where are you going to go if EVERY state is like that?
5) Every Republican, and every Conservative voter MUST UNDERSTAND that if such a state of affairs comes to be, NO OTHER ISSUE WILL MATTER AT ALL, because we will ALWAYS AND FOREVER lose on those issues. Immigration is THE issue of this election, and this election is as critical as the 1860 election was - and for the same reason, because it will determine whether this nation continues on as it has existed in the past, or becomes a new and unrecognizable entity that simply occupies the same geographic territory.
Please wake up, and help others to do so by sending them this post (or recommending “Adios America†to them). It really is THAT important.
Isn’t Singer the guy who’s funding a GOP for Gay Marriage group?

Here’s hoping this is Rubio’s kiss of death. ALL GOP candidates need to attack this news immediately.
Got to have slave labor and ignorant voters.
Without a doubt.
How much better the world could have been with no Kennedys... No Vietnam (ok, that’s stretching it) no Democrat inspiration for decades, less filandering in the Oval orifice, etc.
Singer gives generously to Republicans in general, including Ted Cruz, so I doubt anyone besides Trump will be eager to make it too much of an issue.
Hahh...Jeb was trying desperately to land Singer. Sent a couple of salesmen up to meet with him recently. I guess they couldn’t close the deal.
Apparently in GOP donor circles this is a BIG catch.
“As Politico reported at the time, Singer “quietly go[t] involved in the fight for immigration reform, making a six-figure donation... to the National Immigration Forum”- a George Soros-backed organization that lobbied for Rubio’s legislation to issue 33 million green cards to foreign nationals in the span of a single decade.”

It’s money from leftist sleazeballs like Singer that made sodomite “marriage” legal in America.

Gay rights[edit]
As well as contributing to private initiatives, Singer has also actively sought to persuade other Republicans to support gay marriage. He has joined other Wall Street executives in support of LGBT equality and stated that same-sex marriage promotes “family stability†and that in a time when “the institution of marriage in America has utterly collapsed,†the fact that gay couples want to marry “is kind of a lovely thing and a cool thing and a wonderful thing.â€.[79][80]
Singer, whose son married his partner in Massachusetts, has also financially supported the legalization of gay marriage in New York,[81] and Maryland.[82] In 2011, this advocacy included, supporting legislation allowing same-sex marriage in the state of New York along with other GOP donors.[83]
In 2012, Singer provided $1 million to start a Political Action Committee named American Unity PAC. According to the New York Times, the PAC’s “sole mission will be to encourage Republican candidates to support same-sex marriage, in part by helping them to feel financially shielded from any blowback from well-funded groups that oppose it.”[84] In 2014, Singer urged Republicans to pass the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. This bill requires workplace protections to extend out to the LGBT community.[85]
Well it looks like Trump is loosening the laces, look for the gloves to come off really quick.
Rubio is trapped in the corner between the ropes all that’s left is for Trump to beat him bloody before throwing the knock out, that’s right Rubio I want to see lots of your blood.
The Cheap Labor Express is intent on preventing us from electing anyone who would stop them.
It’s important for Rubio to hang on until Trump crushes him in Florida, next March.
He will suck up a lot of GOPe and Free Traitor™ money and prevent Romney from getting in.
If he collapses now, they will have too much time to re-group.
Excellent images re Rubio and the PAC paying for his amnesty emphasis.
