Democrat Adam Schiff Announces $8 Million Fundraising Haul After Censure
Breitbart ^ | 07/05/2023 | Ashley Oliver

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), a top contender for the U.S. Senate race in California, revealed Wednesday his campaign raised $8.1 million in the second quarter of 2023.

Schiff, who is hoping to replace retiring Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) in the solid blue state, said the haul came from 144,000 unique donors and that the average contribution was $34. He now has $29.5 million in cash on hand.

Schiff’s campaign touted a remark in Politico that “nothing so far comes close to Rep. Adam Schiff’s record-breaking” $8.1 million, a massive figure that far surpasses any other candidate who has announced his or her numbers for the last quarter.

The man’s as Jewish as Adolf Hitler was. In spite of his descent from Judah.

Jesus was also Jewish.

They are rewarding his dishonest efforts to take Trump down by any means necessary. It’s to be expected.

I wonder, how much did Tom McClintock (r-CA) donate to Schiff’s campaign?

“Money Laundering??”

That was my first thought. He got eight million dollars in legitimate donations like I did.

Unfortunately he does. And the way California does it, the top 2 finishers go to the general AND it’s an open primary so you can vote in any primary regardless of affiliation. So it may be wise for California Republicans to rally behind the lesser evil Democrat. Maybe, in that case, Shifty would either finish 3rd and get cut out, or if he ends up in the top two a block of about 30% would be supporting the other candidate in the general making it harder for Shifty to clinch 50%.

I agree with you, monkey. I think there’s a likelihood the other rat on the ballot will strongly carry the Republican vote. I think your average lib simpleton doesn’t really know what a great hero Schiff is + the other candidates are intersectional. So, far from a shoo-in for his opposition, but a very good change exists to beat him

“the haul came from 144,000 unique donors and that the average contribution was $34”

Anyone looking behind this?

“The ActBlue money laundering straw donor scandal - How it works -Why it matters - What you can do”

Breaking: O’Keefe Media Group Uncovers Potential MASSIVE Money Laundering into Political Campaigns

Residents across the country who have previously given contributions to Democrat fundraising arm ActBlue appear to unknowingly be a part of a national money laundering scheme to funnel millions of dollars into political campaigns. This was a tip that came from Peter Bernegger of Election Watch, a group guided toward “protecting the integrity of elections.”

The hypothesis has been given credence now that an O’Keefe Media Group investigation not only verified the data on state and federal election sites but also published in-person corroborating interviews with these donors.

Through publicly available records, it was discovered that several Maryland voters had excessive amounts of donations made in their names - not just once, not just twice, but some of them over 10,000 times since 2019.

The O’Keefe Media Group then conducted in person interviews with some of these Maryland voters to inquire as to what knowledge, if any, these Maryland residents had of the scheme.

Cindy Nowe of Annapolis made 1009 unique contributions from 2019-2022 to ActBlue totaling over $18,000 according to federal and state elections data.

She was dismayed by this figure when interviewed by James O’Keefe. Nowe stated that she donates to ActBlue “once in a while,” but she laughed off the $18K figure saying “I doubt that…No I don’t think so.” She added “I wish I could have donated $18,000.”

Another Maryland resident, Garland Riggs, denied that so many contributions could have come from her family with her husband saying “no, not us.” According to publicly available records Riggs contributed more $230,000 through over 31,000 individual donations.

Democrat/Communists do a far, far better job of rallying around their candidates than does the GOP.

There are three running. Barbara Lee, sciff and Katie Porter are running. All three are nutz. Barbara Lee was the only brilliant one to say Iraq was dumb. She got lots of heck from it. But now everyone agrees with her. Go figure. Katie is ok with numbers. Schiff is the worst of the three and will win. Unfortunately.
