David Hogg has yet to bring home the bacon.
Two months ago, the recently defenestrated Democratic National Committee vice chair ignited a firestorm among Democrats by vowing to deploy $20 million from his “grassroots” Leaders We Deserve PAC against incumbents in safe blue districts.
But there’s just one small problem.
Leaders We Deserve only has a measly $1.5 million cash on hand, far short of the promised $20 million it has committed to spend, according to Federal Election Commission records for the month of May.
Worse yet, the PAC has never actually raised that kind of money in the two years since its inception, only raking in $848,000 last month, while spending about $798,000. Close to three-quarters of those expenses appear to have largely been gobbled up on operational costs such as travel, payroll, consulting fees, meals, etc.
This includes $10,502 that went directly into Hogg’s personal pockets.
“David Hogg spent his spring on a kamikaze mission right towards the heart of the Party to raise money for his PAC and, as it turns out, he spent more money on consultants pitching negative stories on the Party than on candidates actually trying to run and win campaigns,” a Democratic strategist vented to The Post.
“That’s the definition of a grift right there, and should be a red flag for every donor, candidate, and activist that he’s already fooled.”
Hogg made waves again Friday by rolling out his PAC’s endorsement of socialist New York City mayoral wannabe Zohran Mamdani, whom the 25-year-old hailed as “authentic” and “real,” ahead of Tuesday’s Big Apple primary contest.

BTTT
“Leaders(?) we deserve.”. Well I guess they deserve entities like jazz mean croquet.
LOL!
This is the root cause problem with the democRats. They mostly have no real life experience. They don't know what works (free markets, small government) and what causes harm (all forms of Socialism). They like style over substance. Good intentions over results.
If David Hogg stays in his death spiral, he may have to eventually get a job. Maybe even before he’s 30.
Every smart republican out there should send him $10. There aren’t enough of us to know that. Perhaps The RNC should send him $10k. It would raise eyebrows but the bigger ones is he’d probably accept it.
Perhaps it would get more old timers to quit.
Maybe he thinks he qualifies for a George Soros credit card.
“This includes $10,502 that went directly into Hogg’s personal pockets.”
Chump change for a democrat.
If only he had some gumption!
Maybe he could start a pillow company!
Wait.
Never mind...
lol!
I read somewhere that Hoggy is spending that money on Pizza and other Uber and Door Dash food delivery services.
He just needs to buy a case of But Light and purge his sorrow.
Article is ridiculous, it's not an election year. If Hogg assembles a House slate of nutroots that appeal to marxist megadonors like Soros, Huffman, the Pritzgers, Hogg will have $200 million not $20 million.
Pig, please. Authentic and real? He would make Adams look like Rudi! And Adams isn't that ..
