An anti-Trump blogger who presided over the demise of The Weekly Standard and now works at a neoconservative outfit called The Bulwark is leading a supposed “Republican” effort against Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake.
The Republican Accountability Project (RAP), which is funded by rich leftists and run by Trump-hater Bill Kristol, will reportedly spend two million dollars through its Political Action Committee (PAC) to defeat Lake in the upcoming November election.
William Kristol is a founding director of Defending Democracy Together and chairman of the board for the Republican Accountability Project,” according to RAP’s website.
Lake is herself a Trump-esque figure, vowing to put America First and tackle hard-line issues like immigration and abortion. RAP describes itself as “a project of Defending Democracy Together” (DDT), another one of Kristol’s projects. Arizona Free News reports that RAP is funded by left-wing Kathryn Murdoch, daughter-in-law of former Fox News kingpin Rupert Murdoch, along with John Pritzker, a relative of former Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, a Democrat, and Sue Mandel, director of notable far-left group the ZOOM Foundation.
Those three donors have given Kristol’s group $1 million each. More left-wing donors have given the Trump-obsessed writer and his newest group amounts in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. DDT is also funded by left-wingers, most notably billionaire mega-donor and founder of eBay Pierre Omidyar, who reportedly gave the group at least $600,000 through his nonprofit called Democracy Fund Voice. How that money was spent remains unclear.
Recently, Kristol celebrated the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, continuing to spread the completely discredited conspiracy theory of “Russian collusion.” “Worried much? What docs could the FBI have found? Translator’s notes from Putin meeting? MBS-related financial docs?” he said, attaching Trump’s response to the raid. “Quid-pro-quo offers from foreign dictators? Reports from DHS or other officials on domestic illegal activities done at Trump’s request? Who knows? The FBI does.”
He likes boys.
So Kristol is a TRUE Democrat! It is amazing how these so called Republicans are showing their true colors.
They do it all over the earth. Some of the brightest people on the planet, but as a group some of the least politically astute.
[[I don’t know why I never realized years ago that Kristol was a DNC spy,]]
I didnt either- took me awhile- but he eventful revealed his liberal underpinnings- Years ago he had pretty good sound reasoning from time to time- not always though- but enough that i looked forward to 1/2 way listening to his commentary (I didn’t watch fox, but it was on in our house, and i woudl hear it in background as i did computer work)- but gradually it dawned on me what a liberal he really was- I shoulda paid more attention i guess-
Trump has done a marvelous job of exposing the fakers on fox- they are too wrapped up i n their TDS to realize they gave the game away when they tried to undermine Trump and his followers-
Bunch of Marty Peretz neocons flew the neocon coop late 80s
Kristol the worst
For every dollar that goes to his stupid cause, another probably goes in his pocket.
Bill Kristolnacht up to his old tricks again, huh.
Billy, don’t you have another cruise to go on?
the little prick whose daddy was a Communist (and raised him as a Communist in his youth— affecting his judgement from thence forward) is showing how desperate he is to siphon a living from his portion (a gradually disappearing portion) of the Swamp.
What an a@@hole— to enable victory of people who will never support his neocon expenditure of our military in his little minded games.
Ha! Kari was outspent 3 to 1 and she proved you can’t buy elections. Kristol is just trying to stay in the game any way he can.
Meanwhile, Katie pretends to be a little girl looking for votes so she can keep out of jail.
You and me both
I don’t many of them are Judaic
They are Jewish the fraternity
Their representation in the vanguard of the dismantle western civilization movement which has won institutionally is at least 20 times their proportion
Every tenet of leadership and they are in leadership roles
You have to be a dummy not to notice and were they all southern Baptist we’d have no hesitation pointing that out
Why?
We’ve talked about that forever here
Many things I guess but it’s been this way since the Augustus and Hadrian with their wars on them to Middle Ages kings expulsions or worse and the czars and Pales and recently country club membership restrictions
Couple that with nazism and specific nationalism which was horrid for them
Then toss in a zeal for messianic humanism given so many replace affection for the afterlife with “making a better world “
And you are where we are
Those in these positions are a huge threat
And they are smart no question of that
I don’t have an answer but we can’t let them being Jewish hinder our pushback anymore than were they catholic
They are very very powerful
Despite the fact their resentments are justified
It comes down to that if we want to prevail
I do notice other special minorities are encroaching like blacks and Latinos and Asians and homosexuals
They are heavier in the vanguard of the left than a generation before
To me most powerful leftists in the Klain Rice Schumer Pelosi Elias and Zuckerberg and that Indian nerd runs Google and Schultzberger and of course Soros and that Swiss Jew who funds as much as Soros but makes less noise and has a conservative catholic rivalin Switzerland
Looks like the Jewish split runs 3/2 to 4/3 lefts favor but had inched our way some recently
Most GOPe voters are oblivious I just can’t stop my lying eyes from seeing what they see
Europe is similar where Jews have more valid reason for resisting rightist nationalism
Kristol is a Lincoln Project a-hole.

And when we’re talking Lincoln Project, a-holes are often literally involved.
PAC Vows to Spend $2 Million Against Kari Lake
Three card Monte buy new car and house.
Might be be a Pedophile Like the rest of the Lincoln project?
But Ben Sasse assured me that MAGA was all about having an obsession with “one dude”.
It sounds like time to donate a few bucks to Lake.
What pushback are you thinking? The problem is that unlike a generation ago, there is no legitimate intellectual phalanx in the current conservative movement. Every major right-leaning intellectual has either died (Buckley, Krauthammer, Safire, Limbaugh) or moved to the left (Kristol, Will, Brooks). Without an intellectual wing, there is no way the right can push back. Conservatives today are deeply suspicious of people with intellectual credentials, and this does not help.
You are right and as an Arizonan I'm worried too. This is a swing state and all the big Rat and RINO donors are pouring big anti-MAGA money into all the races. Meanwhile Republican funding has been diverted to other state races considered "more important."
Anybody still think he is not a Communist like his father?
