We thought Democrats wanted to get dark money out of politics.
Huh.
Guess some dark money is ok when ‘orange man bad’ or something …
Some dark money is good, you see https://t.co/PBO7s7ONck

As you read this thread, keep in mind how the Left worked with Big Tech and the media to ‘fortify’ the 2020 election.

They admitted it.
And now we’re seeing how it all came together.
NEW: Future Forward USA Action, a lefty dark money group, raised $150 million in 2020, new tax fillings show.
The group poured $60 million into a related PAC, keeping donors secret.
It also reported $25 million in direct TV buys, making it one of 2020's biggest spenders.

One of 2020’s biggest spenders.
Yup.
Keep going.
Future Forward USA Action's single biggest donation was $55.8 million. The giver is anonymous.
It also received two $20 million donations, $15.2 mm from 1630 (the other big liberal 501c4 that @PoliticoScott
wrote about yesterday), an $11 mm and $10 mm donation.2/X

Giver was anonymous.
Huh.
The biggest donor to the group's related PAC, FF PAC, was Dustin Moskovitz, the Facebook co-founder.
He gave that group $46 million+. Not unreasonable to presume he funded some of related nonprofit.

Ties to Facebook? Where is our shocked face?!
Besides the $60+ million put into the super PAC — the donors would have had to be disclosed if not coming first through this nonprofit — the group's biggest expense was giving away $49,160,000 to the Silicon Valley Community Foundation.

Just.
Wow.
Among the listed employees of Future Forward USA Action is David Shor, the much-discussed Democratic data scientist. (This was not unknown but I'm noting it in the thread.)

Alrighty then.

Making excuses fir it, I mean. “It’s different when we do it!”
