If there’s one thing Democrats all agree on, it is that they hate Jews, America, Americans who disagree with them, mutilating the genitals of children, welcoming in illegal aliens to rape and murder Americans, and pretty much anything else you can come up with that is designed to make the United States a worse place to live and damage our leadership in the world. OK, that’s more than “one” thing, but they campaign on none of those, so the thing they campaign on hating is “money in politics.”
They really do hate it. Terrorist-loving Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El Sayed talks about it more often now than he does his close friend and workout buddy Hasan Piker, whom he now dismisses as just “a Twitch streamer from California.” It’s the equivalent of “some people did something,” which is how Abdul’s ideological sister Ilhan Omar dismissed 9/11.
But for people who hate something, they sure ask for a lot of it.
Abdul is in my inbox multiple times per day begging for cash. He’s also happily taking $10 million from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) – a weird man who used to support Israel, but now supports maintaining his own power. He’s also taking money from Democrat billionaires and left-wing “dark money groups,” as Democrats like to call them when they oppose them.
Isn’t it odd how “dark money groups” are a problem for these politicians ONLY when they support their opponent? It’s like “lobbying” is bad ONLY depending on which side of whatever issue a person is on; otherwise they are simply activists. You name the cause, and there are lobbyists for it – cancer research, defense contractors, opposing child abuse, drug companies. A “lobbyist,” in the pejorative sense, is an activist working for something with which a person disagrees. Otherwise, they’re just an activist. But they’re all doing the same thing.
And “dark money” is the same way. It’s not “dark” if they’re doing something a liberal considers to be good; then it is altruistic. All heroes may not wear capes, but they all do fund left-wing causes while hiding their identities from the public they are paying to influence.
You expect the begging from candidates in tight races, like Abdul, and you know there is going to be a virtual fortune dumped into that Michigan Senate race from places and people no sane candidate would want to be associated with (a prospect made more difficult now that ActBlue is under investigation for Hoovering up money from foreigners, which is against the law). Still, there will be plenty of shady Middle Eastern money helping Abdul, as soon as they move it domestically and clean it a little. If you think the Muslim Brotherhood is going to let this opportunity slide by them without a dirty fight, you are unfamiliar with their dedication to their cause and their work.
Hilariously, the radical Islamic left shares a party with people like Tim “Sarah” McBride, the “trans woman” Rep. from Delaware’s only district. Democrats win in Delaware – they sent Joe Biden to the Senate for decades, and McBride won with 58 percent of the vote in 2024.
Still, McBride wants the McCash and tries to use panic to get it. After Delaware's primary last week, McBride wrote, “Unlike other campaigns, which have months to build their general election campaigns, Delaware’s primary election on Tuesday was the last in the country. Now, we’re up against the September 30th end-of-quarter fundraising deadline — it’s our first and final end-of-quarter FEC deadline of the general election. In a moment, we’ll explain why this deadline is so critical, but if you’re already on board to show your support for Sarah in this pivotal moment, pitch in $5 now.”
Must’ve been a really “tough” primary to need to replenish that war chest, right? Not really. McBride is “trans” reality on gender, but is a complete fraud when it comes to weaseling into people’s wallets. McBride was not contested in the Democrat primary, likely because no Democrat wanted to be declared a transphobe. So everything raised to that point goes on to the general election; the “reporting” at the end of the month does not matter one bit.
I went to Delaware recently because it’s nearby and easy to get a sense of the Democrat Party from the people there, and McBride is not a point of McPride. The small business owners I spoke with have no love for McBride or any Democrats, whom they see as having things other than the best interest of their citizens on their minds. But, as many said, they are wildly outnumbered by people with no skin in the game. The “leisure class,” either through wealth or welfare, who are simply unimpacted by the real life everyone else lives in.
From the DNC to the DSA, you won’t find many activist Democrats impacted by the consequences of the policies they advocate, but they all love your money. They beg you for it, try to con you out of it, and all decry its existence in politics as they do.
