Sleepy Joe Has Set A DARK MONEY RECORD!

If you are a decent and upstanding person, you don’t particularly want to be involved in something that you don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing.

For example, several years ago I had a friend who I was talking to about needing to get a new tire for my car. We were going about it, just making idle conversation and out of nowhere, he handed me a wad of cash that had to have about 500 dollars in it.

I looked at him like he was crazy and told him that I couldn’t take the money because something about the whole deal didn’t feel right. Well, fast forward about two weeks and he was getting arrested for embezzlement from the company he worked for. I didn’t take the money, but I did get called in as a witness at the trial and it was so strange.

Despite Democrats’ objections to “dark money” — money raised from outside groups that collect it from anonymous donors so that it cannot be traced back — President Joe Biden raised a record amount of “dark money” during the 2020 presidential campaign, according to a Tuesday report from Bloomberg.

“Biden raked in about $145 million in donations from anonymous donors to outside groups backing him, far outstripping the $28.4 million spent on behalf of his rival, former President Donald Trump,” Fox News added. “It also tops the previous record of $113 million in dark money donations spent on behalf of Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney in 2012.”

“Priorities USA Action Fund, one of the most prominent Democratic super PACs supporting Biden, used $26 million in funds originally donated to its nonprofit arm, called Priorities USA, to back the then-candidate, according to Bloomberg. The donors of that money do not need to be disclosed,” the outlet added.

Democrats set fundraising records across the board. According to Fox, Biden, the Democratic presidential candidate, raised an astounding $1.5 billion to bankroll his largely non-traditional presidential run, which saw him out of the spotlight for days at a time. And Democrats raised a whopping $326 million in dark money, nearly twice what Republicans hauled in.

Ironically, Biden campaigned on ending dark money in federal campaigns. His 2020 campaign website lists dark money as a “corrupting influence in politics” and he claims to support publicly financed campaigns, effectively ending the current fundraising model.
