I&#8217;ve written before about leftists millions getting pumped into elections far from home trying to influence peoples&#8217; lives. We all know the usual suspects, David Bloomberg who finances seemingly hundreds of anti-gun groups (not to mention blowing something like $50,000,000 on his own failed few-delegate Presidential campaign. Wait, I stand corrected, it was $1,000,000,000 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/things-mike-bloomberg-bought-in-failed-500-million-presidential-campaign-2020-3\">Business Insider \u00a0<\/a>Call it $23,000,000 per delegate. Then there&#8217;s everyone&#8217;s favorite Hungarian Nazi-we-love-to-hate, George Soros. We&#8217;ve discussed him before ad nauseum (or maybe that&#8217;s just the feeling it inspires.)<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s one I didn&#8217;t know Swiss billionaire Hansj\u00f6rg Wyss. This lad is pouring tens of millions of dollars into left-wing causes and groups.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Fund for a Better Future (FBF), which has received a majority of its funding from two nonprofit foundations overseen by Wyss in recent years, pushed large sums of cash last year to groups dedicated to overhauling the Supreme Court, supporting President Biden&#8217;s &#8220;Build Back Better&#8221; initiative, addressing alleged voter suppression and advocating for aggressive climate change policies .<\/p>\n<p>In 2021, the group funneled nearly $10.7 million to the League of Conservation Voters (LCV), a powerful environmental organization that advocates for a massive green transition away from fossil fuels and which is active on Capitol Hill. The contribution was the largest donation FBF made to any group last year.<\/p>\n<div class=\"caas-body\">\n<p>In addition, FBF gave $10 million last year to Priorities USA Action, a left-wing political action committee (PAC) that works to elect Democratic candidates across the country. Priorities USA Action was aligned with former President Barack Obama and <a class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/clinton-organization-funded-energy-project-raphael-warnocks-church-repeatedly-defended-hillary-clinton\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton\" data-rapid_p=\"29\" data-v9y=\"1\">former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton<\/a> in 2012 and 2016, respectively, and has been described as the largest Democratic super PAC in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>They want to add seats to the Supreme Court, they want\u00a0to add term limits for justices, they want to overhaul it and swing not just the Supreme Court\u00a0but all levels of the judiciary more progressive,&#8221;\u00a0Caitlin Sutherland, executive director of conservative-leaning Americans for Public Trust, told Fox News in 2021.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/dark-money-group-linked-foreign-193943421.html\">Fox News via Yahoo<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"caas-body\">\n<p>Oh, and FBF donates heavily to the Biden\/Harris folks, Stacey Abrams, while pushing back on the idea that Wyss is their major funder, despite FBF providing most of their funds.<\/p>\n<p>Gotta keep shining the light on the cockroaches&#8230; especially when they are foreign cockroaches trying to subvert our justice system.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You really can&#8217;t tell the players apart without a scorecard, can you?
