David Brock May Be Illegally Funding An Effort To Impeach Trump
Daily Caller ^ | 10:43 PM 12/08/2017 | Robert Donachie

David Brock’s Media Matters for America appears to be granting hundreds of thousands of dollars in charitable funds to political groups that are trying to impeach the president and unseat Republicans across the nation.

Brock’s Media Matters for America is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization that has tax-exempt status. That tax-exempt status comes with an important caveat: the non-profit is barred from participating in political activity–funding or otherwise–that is in support or opposition to a candidate for office.

Media Matters for America granted $200,000 in 2016 to a Brock organization, though it is unclear if it was American Bridge 21st Century Foundation or a super PAC sharing its name, American Bridge 21st Century PAC, according to the non-profit’s 2016 financial statements and filings with the IRS obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation.

Both organizations have a history of engaging in political behavior, as TheDCNF exclusively reported in October. Brock’s organizations face a Federal Election Commission complaint detailing an alleged scheme to hide donor identities involving both the foundation and super PAC that allowed for the funneling of untraceable millions that can not be publicly traced to their donors toward initiatives against conservative and GOP causes around the nation.

Under the IRS code, all 501(c)3 non-profit organizations “are absolutely prohibited from directly or indirectly participating in, or intervening in, any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for elective public office.” …

David Brock was once one of the darlings of the neocon faction. John Podhoretz mentored him.

Not a surprise.

“Sedition is easier to prove and document”

Acting on long existing sedition law is more overdue than some of my library books. Yet it’s so easy even a Republican can do it. A bit of a problem “housing” newly minted felons but US can do it - even “Sí, Se Puede”!

This guy has been David against Goliath in the battle against David Brock and Media Matters.

I’d count it an honor if Freepers would give him a click and bookmark him.

Any proof Sessions is actively prosecuting any of the sedition being directed at the legally elected President of the United States?

Any proof whatsoever?

I would like to see this David Brook hanging in the Town Square by his little toes until he’s stoned like in the old days:

David Brock’s “After Party”

https://i.sli.mg/Rg6dO9.jpg

Podesta’s invitation to an AFTER party at David Brock home (pic related, was attached in email)

https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/28538

David Brock is described as “batshit crazy” by Neera Tanden. His work history also shows temperamental behavior and volatility.

https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/43904

NY Times article being discussed is this one.

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/11/us/politics/emerging-clinton-team-shows-signs-of-disquiet.html

The company that planned the event has a long roster.

“Here’s a party tip: If you’re hosting an impromptu dinner and want guests to show up, have Academy Award-winner Mira Sorvino as your guest of honor.

That’s exactly what Kimball Stroud did after Sorvino attended a briefing on child trafficking on Capitol Hill with Sens. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) and John Cornyn (R-Tex.), filmmaker Libby Spears (“Playground”) and several survivors of child trafficking.”

“An Open Secret” documentary on Hollywood pedos revealed that several major Hollywood pedos had mansion pedophile parties called “after parties”.

45:09 - Mansion talk begins 45:55 - Brock Pierce is mentioned as the ringleader of the parties

Pierce supports non-profit and advocacy efforts, and is a member of the Clinton Global Initiative.

When Brock’s impeachment effort was first reported back in January, Hillary’s direct involvement in assisting the effort was mentioned.

Dumb question but could it possibly be NOT a coincidence that the Only President to fight pedophilia on many fronts is fought very hard by these people?

Me, too, he was maybe our most effective fighter.

He was also a Freeper and made over 100 posts.

I used to remember his screen name.

He would usually chime in if there was an interesting question about an LA celebrity —his father in law was (or is?) a TV celebrity.

I think his name was/is Bean.
