The Vultures’ Vultures: How A New Hedge-Fund Strategy Is Corrupting Washington

With the hedge fund battles, a group of rich investors simply picks a side and then spends endlessly to tilt the battlefield to make sure that side wins. And in true Washington fashion, people are annoyed that the sellouts have sold low. As the same Senate GOP aide put it: “Sure, I’ll go after a few individuals, and help make Congress dysfunctional, so we can have Donald fucking Trump as our nominee, just so I can make $25,000. That’s just sad for our country.”

The American people, of course, are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights. Political hedge funds, though, aren’t leaving things in God’s hands alone. For that, there’s the DCI Group.

The DCI Group most famously built its reputation doing the dirty work of the tobacco industry. That long-running operation involved funding “experts” who would question the medical science around smoking, and targeting individual advocates and lawmakers. It pioneered the use of shadow groups that concealed the true source of funding for the campaign, and can be seen as a blueprint for the hedge fund campaigns

1. We WILL once we can get a Democratic Senate and House to overturn CU. Otherwise, it's just plain

stupid to disarm unilaterally.

So this means - GET OUT AND VOTE, not only during presidential elections but in ALL elections from local and up. This is what the Republicans employed and now they practically run the United States despite there being less Republicans/Teapublicans and far more Progressives, Liberals, and Democrats.
