(67,782 posts)8. Elizabeth Warren seems to be popular at Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Apple, and IBM:
Employees at those corporations have contributed:
Google: $120,364.05
Microsoft: $41,863.91
Amazon: $26,218.05
Apple: 21,508.94
IBM: $18,902.39
That's almost a quarter million dollars, and what she received from "Google" is about 30% more than what he received from Sullivan & Cromwell.
And would it surprise you to learn that Warren received money from both Sullivan & Cromwell AND Sullivan & Cromwell LLP?
That's just the way it is.

The point is that it's unreasonable simply look at where contributors work, it means little.

Why did Buttigieg return Sullivan & Cromwell bundler Rodgin Cohen's $5k just yesterday then?

Funny that Cohen was one of the names he omitted from his initial list of bundlers
