EXCLUSIVE: DNC Sent Millions To Law Firms Behind ‘Unprecedented Lawfare’ Campaign Against Trump
The Daily Caller ^ | 06/25/2024 | Henry Rodgers

Posted on 06/25/2024 4:51:00 PM PDT by ChipMarne

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has sent millions of dollars to law firms that are intimately involved in an “unprecedented lawfare” campaign against former President Donald Trump, according to Federal Election Commission (FEC) records reviewed by the Daily Caller.

The DNC has paid close to $2 million since August of 2021 to Kaplan Hecker & Fink LLP for “legal services,” according to the DNC’s FEC filings. Kaplan Hecker & Fink LLP founding partner Roberta A. Kaplan represented E. Jean Carroll in her sexual assault and defamation suits against Trump. The New York Times previously reported that Reid Hoffman, the billionaire co-founder of LinkedIn, helped pay for Carroll’s lawsuits.

The DNC did not pay the firm for any services from its founding in 2017 until August of 2021. Carroll initiated her first lawsuit against Trump in 2019.

The firm states that it was founded to “build a law firm for the future rooted in principles of equity, integrity, and justice.” Partner Joshua Matz served as counsel for the House Judiciary Committee during the first Trump impeachment trial. He was invited back to serve on the second impeachment trial, according to the firm’s website. The firm also touts “representing former U.S. District Court Judge John Gleeson as a court-appointed amicus in United States of America v. Michael T. Flynn.”

The good guys have to exploit these facts in TV ads.

Black people and Hispanic voters plus Independents area already responding to feeling empathy with Trump for being railroads like them.

This has to be used in ads.

“Lawfare from the out of control Democrats could affect you once they get done with Donald Trump.”

So the DNC paid for the ugly old woman's lawyers. Wow, I didn't know she was an elected Dem Rep, Senator, VP or President. /s

What's the FEC's rules on how much the DNC or RNC can contribute to a political campaign? Is it whatever they want? Are like-kind contributions figured into that?

everyday we find out how much further the left has pushed this country toward the brink. And everyday not a damn thing is done to push back. At this rate i don’t even trust that trump will, or can, do anything to push back.

FTA-—“There is now clear and explosive evidence that the Biden DNC is paying Democrat law firms to engage in in this unprecedented lawfare and election interference against President Trump.”

This from Mike Davis, a legal adviser to Trump, and the founder and president of the Article III Project, told the Daily Caller.

I was hoping that the new leadership of Lara Trump for the RNC, we’d see a big difference than the old leadership of Ronna McRomeny. So far for this we see nothing is being done.

In the corner, sucking their thumbs. Hoping their names don't show up in any of the "papers."

Yep and it will continue because nobody’s ever held accountable …no one! But God forbid if it would’ve been folk from a MAGA lawfare group… They would’ve end up in prison for the rest of their lives. And some of them would’ve probably been executed for the crime.

On the bright side, at least we know. We're living in an one party state. It's no longer a charade. CNN and other networks are no longer pretending anymore.
