Ex-Ted Cruz aide built dark money 'slime machine' to smear Biden nominees: report [View all]

By Bob Brigham
Published April 16, 2022

Investigate journalist Jane Mayer has a bombshell new report on a dark money group that build a "slime machine" attacking President Joe Biden's nominees.

Mayer broke down how Republicans attacked Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson as "pro-pedophile" with QAnon adjacent attacks.

She wrote "the fierce campaign against her was concerning, in part because it was spearheaded by a new conservative dark-money group that was created in 2020: the American Accountability Foundation. An explicit purpose of the A.A.F.—a politically active, tax-exempt nonprofit charity that doesn’t disclose its backers—is to prevent the approval of all Biden Administration nominees."
