Billionaire Kochs to Financially Back Democrats Pushing Amnesty, Free Trade
Breitbart ^ | 6/9/2019 | John Binder

Posted on 06/09/2019 8:41:02 PM PDT by bitt

The pro-mass immigration Koch brothers’ network of billionaire, donor-class organizations is readying to financially back Democrats, so long as they promise to support amnesty for illegal aliens and vote to advance free trade at all costs.

In a memo to its staff, the Koch-funded Americans for Prosperity (AFP) organization announced that the economic libertarian group is set to back any elected official in Washington, DC, — including Democrats — who support their agenda of amnesty for illegal aliens and endless free trade, and oppose the GOP voter-preferred economic nationalist agenda of less immigration and tariffs to protect American jobs.

The memo read:

The threat of being primaried prevents policymakers from leading on difficult issues and driving principled policy reforms. AFP or AFP Action will be ready to engage contested U.S. Senate, U.S. House, and state-level primary races, including Republican, Democrat, Independent or otherwise, to support sitting legislators who lead by uniting with others to pass principled policy and get good things done. [Emphasis added]

The Koch effort to financially support pro-amnesty, anti-economic nationalist Democrats would come to fruition through the creation of multiple issue-specific Political Action Committees (PACs), all under the larger Koch network umbrella.

Support for free trade absolutism, amnesty for illegal aliens, and an anti-economic nationalist voting record are basic requirements for Democrats and Republicans who want financial support from the Koch brothers, as outlined in AFP’s memo:

Four new issue specific Political Action Committees (PACs) will be created to make contributions directly to candidates. We know that candidates will seldom agree with Americans for Prosperity on every issue. But for those who do the politically difficult job of leading on a critical issue, these issue specific PACs will make it clear why millions of Americans support them on that issue, even if they have principled disagreements on

At this point we need to consider whether the Kochs or people like them are the ones actually controlling the narco-cartels.

If you want to know what the Koch boys are like, talk to an employee or former employee of Georgia-Pacific (Koch-owned).

I was at a conference put on by the church I attended at the time, and afterwards, one of the speakers mentioned to me privately that he had just been laid off - and rather brutally, IMO - by the Koch's operation he had been with for some time. This gent was a very solid guy, and he warned me that the Koch's were wolves in sheep's clothing. From that point, I have found his warning to be valid.

I'm a libertarian as well - but I guess the Koch bros never bothered studying Milton Friedman as I did...

O’Sullivan’s Law states that any organization or enterprise that is not expressly right wing will become left wing over time.

This is another example.

To Do List:

1) Never contribute to or support AFP.

2) Find out what the Koch brothers manufacture and never buy that again or products from companies doing business with them.

You do you. I’ll do me.

I'm no expert on the Koch operations (or anything else) but I have read the book written by Charles Koch. And I've talked with maybe 50 people who have worked for Koch businesses.

Of the 50 employees - managers and hourly - 48 of them had negative things to say about Koch operations - and the other two struggled to find something positive to say.

The Kochs have a vision of strong, efficient, privately planned economies. Nothing wrong with that. But they believe that can be accomplished without strong families or strong cultures.

That kind of system is not sustainable, even if widgets are flying off the production line in record numbers.

In the Koch culture, generosity is sending each employee a Christmas card with Charles Koch's photograph - and without mentioning the word “Christmas.”

I wonder if the demtards on principle will reject the hated Kochs brothers dirty money.

LOL! I was thinking exactly the same thing. I'm sure the Koch money isn't dirty when it goes to a Democrat, only when it goes to a Republican.

My entire view of country club Republicans and wealthy classes drastically changed during the gang of 8 episode. I think the best way to stop socialism is to raise taxes on the people who run the country since the less they pay taxes the more left they seem to become. Nothing more for corporate entities as long as the corporate media smears the rest of us. Last time the wealthier they were the more they voted for Hillary. Even the ones who stay Republican just become more and more feckless.

They were always traitors and supporters of the libertarian branch of the Republican party. As I look back it looks to me that the libertarian movement was probably a way to divide and conquer the Republican party.
