Mike Bloomberg gives $20 million to help Biden beat Trump
Washington Post ^ | Michael Scherer, Tyler Page

Former New York mayor Mike Bloomberg, the billionaire entrepreneur and former Democratic presidential candidate, has given nearly $20 million to help President Biden’s reelection effort, according to people familiar with the donations.

The transfer of funds includes a $19 million check to FF PAC, a independent pro-Biden group also known as Future Forward, and a max-out donation of $929,600 to the Biden Victory Fund, an amalgamation of Biden campaign and Democratic Party committees.

Bloomberg endorsed Biden’s reelection Thursday in a statement to The Washington Post, in response to a request for comment on the donations.

“I stood with Joe Biden in 2020, and I am proud to do so again,” Bloomberg said.

Bloomerg is another one of those putrid RATS who repeatedly changes political parties to benefit himself. He’d been a lifelong RAT, but changed to the GOP to run on Rudy’s coattails. Rudy had asked the City Council to remain in office just long enough to see the City through the aftermath of 9/11. They refused him. Bloomberg knew full well that the NY City Council had made a law limiting the term of the Mayor to two consecutive, back-to-back terms while Giuliani was in office. Then, during his second term, Bloomberg asked the City Council permission to run for a third term, and the RATS granted him his wish. He had by then changed his party to Independent. Before the next Mayoral election, the City Council changed it back to two terms. Prior to Giuliani taking office, there were no term limits for NY City Mayor.

The amount of poor judgment exhibited by many Americans of Jewish heritage is astounding. I have Jewish heritage, and I don't understand people like Bloomberg.

"Bloomberg is just another leftist in Republican clothing, a real Bush Crime Family hooligan."

He only ran for Mayor of New York as a Republican because after Rudy, and 9/11, no Democrat would be elected Mayor of that City. He remained a Republican until 2007, then changed to Independent and got a special third term from the City Council. In 2018, he went back to the RAT party so he could run for President as the life-long RAT he was.

True to form— the very =ish kind of jew (not Orthodox, not even practicing, going to temple) the german totalitarians partnered with. People like little Soros who is pretty much the same kind of person as Bloomberg. What a joke this little man is- both of them. Never forget Bloomberg saying” what’s the big deal about farming- you get some seed put em the ground water them and wait. Anyone can do that!!” Incredibly stupid man, and look how he uses his money to support a demented pervert- maybe because they are perverts together? Hmmmm.

$20 million is just show biz for a turd like little Mikie.
If he really wanted Crime Boss Joey and the Occupy White House Gang to stay in power he could make that a $Billion.

Bloomberg doesn’t know jack about education, yet he forced teachers to accept untested progressive methodologies to teach. Under him, teaching became a living hell. He brought about the rubber rooms, fines, hearings, etc. He politicized being a conservative teacher. I could watch him try his luck at flying from the top of the Empire State Building and laugh at the outcome. That’s how much he made me suffer humiliation and loss.

Did he send the money directly to the print shop that is creating the phony ballots?

He and that other guy collectively spent I believe a billion dollars on that campaign - they both claimed one of their top motivations was “climate change.”

They should have given that billion dollars to fund forestation and land reclamation projects to reverse desertification and have more vegetation vs. spending it on campaign advertising and jet travel if they were sincere about their concerns about the environment. Of course, no one in the press dared ask them about this.

Now if he could only buy Biden a shiny new AI brain, it might actually make a difference.
