GOP Establishment Money Funding Mark Levin, Glenn Beck, Erick Erickson To Attack Trump
Daily Caller ^ | 04/08/2016 | Roger Stone

Posted on 04/08/2016 12:46:22 PM PDT by SpaceBar

The next time you hear Mark Levin on the radio, or watch Glenn Beck on TV, or read Erick Erickson, RedState.com on the Internet, you might just ask yourself who is paying for the message? And why is it so stridently anti-Trump?

Don’t fool yourself. They’re doing it for the money.
...

Follow the Money

The Conservative Tree House blog exposed the financial nexus supporting prominent “conservative” pundits to promote in their media outlets Ted Cruz as the last, best hope to block Trump in Wisconsin, a state considered by the Washington-based GOP establishment as perhaps the last establishment firewall to block Trump from the GOP presidential nomination.

“These financial/media relationships have largely and historically, remained hidden,” a blogger identified simply as “sundance” noted in an article posted on TheConservativeTreeHouse.com on Wednesday. “They have sure never been publicly, clearly, and regularly stated so the consuming audience would know the presentation was fraught with financial conflict.”

A few weeks ago, Levin was hawking his new webTV program during his radio program.

Had to laugh when he said he ‘wasn’t in it for the money.’ A few minutes later in talking about it, he said ‘it is only $69/year or $7.99/month.’

He is.

His knee jerk first response was to support the TPA.

He co-authored an article for the Wall Street Journal hawking it with Paul Ryan.

He participated in a lot of interviews supporting it.

This is the guy that said he helped stop the Gang of 8 Bill. Strangely enough, it passed in the Senate, so he didn’t stop anything.

He claimed he suggested we move our H1-Bs up to 500% of what they had been, as a poison pill. Then two years later, he was still championing that poison pill. The man is a very good liar.

Levin is a special case in this subversion of election laws, over and above cash payoffs.

Levin was paid off with a woman. Cruz hired a woman's son so Mark could bed her. Period. Middle aged bald nerd suddenly scores? Right.

As Sen. Bob Kerry famously said of Bill Clinton, “He’s an exceptionally good liar,” Bill may have met his match in Cruz.

Ted is still everything to his sycophants

Either the best Christian

Or the best Constitutionalist

He feeds their own self righteousness

His flaws and hypocrisy be damned

The more you know about Cruz, the more you see shades of Cliton/Obama in there.

Suckers On Parade & Moonbattery are right-wing sites. As far as the one Salon link, are you questioning what they say about the ratfu**er?

Mark Levin has been stating for months that he’s voting for Trump if he’s the nominee & how foolish the Stop Trump movement is. Have you seen those articles? Would you have expected Levin to endorse Trump?

Oh, but he didn’t vote for it after writing the op ed with Ryan and hawking it on radio and television.

McCain used to pull that routine notoriously.

Ailes owns a lot of Limbaugh

Wrong.

Ailes produced Rush's tv show in the 90s. That is all. Ailes has NOTHING to do with Rush's radio show or his business.

Logic. Globalism is not conservative. Cruz is a Globalist. Therefore Cruz is not conservative.

My husband and I attended a (Mark Levin) book signing at the Reagan Presidential Library this past August. His children were also there. Not sure your information about his kids being estranged from him is factual.

I found the timing of the big announcement of Levin’s “lifetime” contract extension peculiar...right in the thick of his seemingly never-ending Trump bashing.

Sundance’s and CTH’s Treepers work on raw data analysis is really top notch. Ferguson, Trayvon, Chalmers-serious raw data analysis. Really good stuff, like from Dragnet or something.
