McDaniel campaign wasting no time. If MS Supreme Court denies order, next stop is federal court.

Wednesday News Conference is fast approaching.

I wonder how many records have already been destroyed?

[deport]

If by records you mean official voting records then I suspect none.

[Fungi]

Call in the IRS to seize those hard drives! No....wait......

[Diogenesis]

These are the companies which paid for the fraud:

Elliot Management, Goldman Sach, Bain Capital,
Blackstone Group,Affiliated Managers Group,
Wells Fargo, Ciciora custom Homes,
Senior Star Living, Home Depot, Castle Harlan, Inc.
Swan Farms, Koch Industries.

How many have been destroyed?Enough to render his efforts moot if he should succeed in court.

[upchuck]

Interesting list, especially as it includes Koch Industries. Source?

[Viennacon]

Praying hard. He is the rightful senator elect. Cochran is a cheating swine!

Still not going quietly into that dark night...

[wastedyears]

I don’t have much faith in the Supreme Court being in his favor.

[Hostage]

Federal courts will be.

Corporatist America.

The Twitter photograph you referred me to lists generic contributors in 2014 to the NRSC.

Where's the backup to your claim they, specifically, paid for the fraud?

The contributor's list is available for all to see here.

I'm not questioning your post, just the way it was done. Damming every entity because they contributed to the NRSC.

Much better, much fairer would have been:

Here are some 2014 contributors to the NRSC. Some of their donated money may have been used to perpetuate this fraud:

Elliot Management, Goldman Sach, Bain Capital, Blackstone Group,Affiliated Managers Group, Wells Fargo, Ciciora custom Homes, Senior Star Living, Home Depot, Castle Harlan, Inc. Swan Farms, Koch Industries

[Starstruck]

Which group was the Koch Brothers?

[deport]

I have no idea if the KOCH Brothers owns any of those mentioned in the link.
That name came from different list linked in a post 15 above.

[Nextrush]

When some of these outfits get demonized by the liberals I might not be inclined to respond with any sympathy?

The Left hates grassroots conservatives and RINO “moderates” because they don’t march in lockstep to Marx and Lenin.

The GOPe supporting business elites are sinking us along with the Left, they only debate the terms of the surrender.

[upchuck]

Do you suppose all those big corporate backers are proud that Cochran may have won fraudulently by using some of their donated money?

See, this is why I campaign for giving money directly to candidates that have views you can support.

IMHO, the NRSC and the rest of them should be outlawed and shutdown.

I’ll take a stab at this.

Corporations buy the Senators and vice versa as the Senators steer contracts to the corporations. The Senators don’t represent the states anymore and are not really connected to the people that elected them.

The flow of money goes in many directions but one way it flows is from corporations to the NRSC under the direction of senate leadership and then to various senators.

Money in this case flowed to the NRSC and then to 31 senators for Cochran:

Mitch McConnell (R-KY) — $60,000
Rob Portman (R-OH)Bob Corker (R-TN) — $30,000
Roger Wicker (R-MS) — $17,000

Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) — $15,000
John Thune (R-SD) — $15,000
