Yes there is. Plenty.

For PACs where most of the money was spent: Left: 44.8 Right: 23.2

Why did he say in his interview the other day that they are dark donations and due to their nature, they will not be observable?


I had not seen it. This comment just linked me too it. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33809968

Unfortunately in my opinion he is not a trustworthy source at all. He lies in that same interview. His own PAC is left. His mom helped found and run another left super PAC.

Seems like the family heavily supports one side. I think he has plenty of reason to lie to help out that side.

He should have receipts for those donations or at least evidence of them happening. That would at least give some credence to his claim.


Yeah, he lies all the time and I agree the support from him and his family seem to heavily support one side over the other.

During his interview with Tiffany Fong, he said all his donations to the republican party has been dark but equivalent to what he gave to the democrats. He said they did this because journalists are deep down hardcore liberals and they get spooked when they see you donated to republicans.
