People always knew that RINOS were present in Washington, but reports from OpenSecrets.org just revealed that some of them were BIG traitors.
According to Investment Watch:
“The non-profit, non-partisan research group based in Washington, D.C., that tracks the effects of money and lobbying on elections and public policy, revealed that while George Soros is responsible for funding Democrats and progressive causes, he has also bankrolled Senator John McCain and a small but select group of other Republicans.
Unsurprisingly, all of the names revealed to receive funding from George Soros have a track record of opposition to President Trump.”

Shazam, Shazam!
Actually, one surprise for me. Who is Crubelo?
(I thought I was paying attention, but missed this guy. Never even heard of him.)

No surprise here. Past time for term limits, I think.
“McCain....He’s a preening narcissist who spends 90% of his time before the Fake News cameras, the rest of his time training his office staff on how to be rude to constituents who call.”
Outstanding! Lol!
Thanks!
Thank you, MIA.
IIRC the most any of these “representatives of the American people” on the list were paid was $3500. I assumed that meant per year or election season and wondered why anyone would sell out their country for peanuts.
McClain came to my mind first.
Outstanding! Lol!
McCain’s Arizona staff office has the rudest most unresponsive people EVER, especially if you are a Republican. They don’t like it when you call, and they REALLY don’t like it when you show up at the Phoenix office. The entire front office is decorated with dozens of photos of McCain’s sneering face on the cover of Newsweek, Washington Post, etc. It’s truly sickening.
Even the State DNC office and my Democrat congresswoman’s office are nicer when I call to express an opposing opinion.
Feinstein has actually made some good votes concerning the military if memory serves. So she isn’t 99.63% bad like Boxer.
Barbara Boxer was also incredibly ignorant and stupid. She really put the Stupid in Stupidest most of the time.
You’re not only a liar you’re an idiot. You were the first one to take offense and act like a jerk. That’s just a fact.
BUMP
Duckworth, Tammy (D-IL) House $10,800
Ryan, Paul (R-WI) House $10,800
Schumer, Charles E (D-NY) Senate $10,800
I can see the point of people who have said these amounts aren’t significant thus what real power does Soros have over the ones in question. I think there are some points to consider though:
1. These are the donations “on the books” so to speak. It clearly shows a relationship between these men and Soros a kind of relationship, no matter how trivial, that doesn’t exist with others. And most notably the same kind that exists (again on the record) between Soros and almost every Democrat. If we are going to excoriate Democrats for being in bed with Soros, for the same amounts of money donated to their campaigns, then why not these Republicans?
2. Back to the point about these donations “on the books” as it were, these are contributions from Soros the “individual”. What about PAC support, funded by Soros, where the contributions however indirect can total millions? Has anyone vetted, for example, all the PACs that supported John McCain in his recent primary win? Where did that support come from?
3. The relationship between Soros, these men, and their obvious anti-conservative agenda over at least the last couple years is something that can’t and shouldn’t be ignored. This isn’t just about being anti-Trump it’s that these men have actively resisted any real efforts to stall leftist Marxist agendas in their terms of Senate and House service, even BEFORE Trump came on the scene. We constantly have noted this on FR and now a relationship, however arguably small financially, is conclusively demonstrated and we wish to shrug it off because the amount of financial support is relatively small?
This should be a rallying cry, a clarion call to further ostracize these men. And speaking about the amount I notice Paul Ryan received $10,800 from Soros in just 2016.
Question: isn’t the limit of annual political contribution from an individual to any given individual less than $10,000? Actually I thought it was $5000.
Scum buckets all.

There is some way they continue to get money from Heinz stocks. See link above.
You have that right!
Thanks Ambrosia.
I can’t say I’m surprised.
