From who exactly? We don’t have a clue. We might never know….
….Yes, but the eventual republican nominee will have all the money they need….
….Gee, someone must have some very wealthy out-of-state friends. Too bad we can’t tell who they are….
Today at the Missouri Ethics Commission for a PAC in Washington, D.C.:
C161307 09/29/2016 MISSOURI FREEDOM PAC Republican Attorneys General Association 1747 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Suite 800 Washington DC 20006 9/28/2016 $990,000.00
[emphasis added]
And not a penny more than needed.
Then, today at the Missouri Ethics Commission for Josh Hawley’s (r) 2016 campaign for Attorney General:
C151132 09/29/2016 HAWLEY FOR MISSOURI Missouri Freedom PAC 1747 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Suite 800 Washington DC 20006 9/29/2016 $1,000,000.00
[emphasis added]
Gee, the very same address. They must save a lot on postage.
Not particularly grassrootsie. Again. Not at all transparent. Again. That’s now $3,000,000.00 total from the same PAC, funded by another (the same) PAC in Washington, D.C.
Campaign finance in Missouri, especially as practiced by republican interests, is an obscenity.
