    Looks like #JohnPaulson was in #Epstein's little black book!

    Massie hits critics after latest Epstein files release: ‘It was not a hoax’

    by Sarah Davis - 01/31/26

    "Massie said these two donors are targeting him because of his involvement in a bipartisan group of legislators pushing for the release of files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The Republican representative alleged that Paulson appeared in Epstein’s 'black book,' a contact log kept by the disgraced financier.

    “Within hours of the #EpsteinFiles release, a #superPAC funded by #IsraelFirst #billionaires #MiriamAdelson, #PaulSinger, and John Paulson, who himself appears in Epstein’s black book, bought another $800,000 of TV ads against me,' Massie said in a second post on X. 'I’ll still win, but if I lose, it was worth it.' "

  2. Among the recipients: a man whose daughter had given millions to a #Trump backed #superPAC, a former governor of #PuertoRico, a former #FBI agent who had pleaded #guilty in a political #corruption case & a California woman whom Trump had granted relief once before.

    The woman, Adriana Camberos, was initially convicted in 2017 for her role in a scheme to sell millions of #counterfeit bottles of the caffeinated drink 5-Hour Energy.

  3. Well, this is an interesting bug report! A $100M AI Super PAC targeted New York Democrat Alex Bores, and he's claiming it actually backfired and helped his campaign.

    Turns out, sometimes even massive AI-backed spending can hit a `FileNotFound` error in public opinion.

    What's your take on big tech money trying to influence elections?

    The best way to stay on top of the resistance is to join/lead the resistance.

    Einfluss von #Geld auf #Politik: Der enorme Einfluss großer #Konzerne, #Lobbyisten und #SuperPAC's auf Wahlen und #Gesetzgebung wird oft als undemokratisch kritisiert.

    #Wahlrechtseinschränkungen: In einigen Bundesstaaten gibt es Maßnahmen, die es bestimmten Bevölkerungsgruppen erschweren zu wählen (z. B. durch #VoterIDLaws oder #Wahlkreis-Zuschnitte).

    "The #superPAC & 2 affil's revealed in fed filings they'd collected >$170m to spend on #political races across #USA in 2024.. more than nearly any oth super PAC.. #Procrypto #donors r responsible for ~50% of corp donations to PACs in 2024 & #techindustry became one of e largest corp donors.. #American #governance hv become so #perverted by #money tt it's nearly impossible for people oth than #billionaires to further their agendas"

  7. #Fain on Tues said #Trump & #Musk are out of touch w/ #workers.

    "Donald Trump will always side against workers standing up for themselves, & he will always side w/billionaires like #ElonMusk, who is contributing $45 million a month to a #SuperPAC to get him elected," he said, referencing a WSJ report….

    The #UAW pres added: "Both Trump & Musk want #WorkingClass people to sit down & shut up, & they laugh about it openly. It's #disgusting, #illegal, & totally #predictable from these 2 #clowns."

  8. It would also be a particularly significant victory given that these groups failed to stop #Bowman in 2020 — & given that the #Democrat base has trended sharply away from #Israel in recent months.

    The #UnitedDemocracyProject super #PAC, which is aligned w/the American Israel Public Affairs Cmte (#AIPAC) & another prominent grp, Democratic Majority for Israel, have spent >$60M on Democrat congressional primaries since the 2020 election.

  9. The result could reverberate greatly in the evolving internal #Democrat debate over the #war in #Gaza.
    
That’s because, while the $ amts are becoming larger & the results have been mostly positive for the pro-Israel groups, their record is still mixed in the highest-profile races. Unseating #Bowman would be the strongest sign yet that criticizing #Israel is a recipe for heartburn & may be a contributing factor in an incumbent’s loss.

  10. Why #JamaalBowman’s #NewYork primary is huge for pro-#Israel groups
    
An #AIPAC-aligned #superPAC & others have spent increasingly huge sums of money in high-profile #Democrat primaries. Their record is mixed, but a #Bowman defeat would be their biggest win yet.

Pro-Israel groups make up an increasingly large presence in #primaries for #Congress. Even so, the effort to unseat Rep #JamaalBowman in Tue’s #primary is extraordinary.

  11. #AmmonBundy & his mob lost a #Defamation case against St. Luke's Hospital in Boise #Idaho. They've been ordered to pay $52.5 million. I talked to @nicolesandler about how #Bundy & his #SuperPAC HAVE the money & the courts have the tools to force them to pay, like this!

    Also, hospitals who care for #LGBTQ people, see there's a way to hold accountable those who organize online #ThreatsOfViolence, #harassment & defamation campaigns against #Healthcare workers. @theidaho97

  14. In Feb 2022, the #PAC announced that it had $122M in its coffers.

    By the beginning of 2023, the PAC’s cash on hand was down to $18M, filings show. The rest had been spent on staff salaries, on the costs of Trump’s “political activities” last yr — incl’g some spending on other candidates & grps — & in other ways. That included the $60M that was transferred to #MAGAInc., a #superPAC that is supporting #Trump. And >$16M went to pay #LegalBills.

  15. (2/2)… we disolved State Govts entirely?

    Eg. the UK don't have state govts.

    Could #localCouncils manage #townPlanning as a #federation.

    StateGovt functions can likely be replaced by Committees of a greater number of national MPs.

    State Govt have become corrupted, engaging in #rentSeeking and known to take #politicalDonations from #realEstate and #propertyDeveloper groups through #SuperPac's like the #PropertyCouncil.

    What do you think? Are State Govts replaceable?
