Democrats have made summer pilgrimages to Nantucket, tapping the wealthy Massachusetts island’s donor class as candidates and party leaders stockpile campaign cash ahead of November.
Nantucket and neighboring Martha’s Vineyard have long been magnets for political fundraising, and Democrats are again tapping the islands’ deep-pocketed donor networks as candidates and party leaders build their war chests ahead of November’s midterm elections.
As of June 30, the Democratic National Committee, Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee had about $136 million in combined cash on hand, compared with roughly $277 million held by their Republican counterparts, according to federal filings.
This summer, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., and others have been spotted on the island for fundraising events.

There was a girl from Nantucket...
I wonder if it really works like this:
Democrats head to an expected location to “raise money”.
Agents of China send millions of dollars.
Deep State agents send millions of dollars.
Some rich Americans attend parties and send thousands of dollars.
Democrats leave the location with hundreds of millions of dollars in “donations”.
Everyone shrugs because this is to be expected with so many generous American Democrats at that location. Happens all the time, right? Nothing remarkable about this at all.
Hope they bring plenty of Joses and Josesbs to carry their bags.
Hmmm.....Martha’s Vinyard.......who lives there?........
Thought they hated Oligarchs and were going to save the working class from their tyranny?
I’m curious to know how all these super rich folks on Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket made their fortunes. It would not be surprising to learn many of them lined their pockets with government graft and corruption.
There once was a man from Nantucket . . .
There was a man from Boston, Mass . . .
Who lives there...
Deep State.
There once was a woman from France . . .
No worries abourt illegals breaking into the Soros/Epstein creepy parties...
