Nikki Haley's Big Financiers

How much money is behind each campaign? - Washington Post https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2021/02/2020-cycle-cost-14p4-billion-doubling-16/ Democratic candidates and groups spent $8.4 billion, compared to $5.3 billion for Republicans. Democrats' spending falls to $7 billion when excluding spending by billionaire presidential candidates Michael Bloomberg and Tom Steyer. When the crust (uniparty donor class) gives out tens of millions to these tools, the actual American trying to run doesn't get a voice. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/11/03/2022-midterm-election-spending-set-to-break-record.html “No other midterm election has seen as much money at the state and federal levels as the 2022 elections,” said Sheila Krumholz, OpenSecrets’ executive director. “We’re seeing record-breaking totals spent on elections up and down the ballot.” Outside groups are also taking advantage of loopholes in disclosure rules. Each of the top 7 super PACs were partially funded by dark money. Pro-Biden groups like Future Forward USA and Priorities USA Action were bankrolled by nonprofit affiliates that share the same name and staffers. Instead of directly spending money on ads, dark money groups are increasingly finding new ways to inject secret money into elections. https://www.opensecrets.org/elections-overview/cost-of-election?cycle=2020&display=T&infl=N More money, less transparency: A decade under Citizens United • OpenSecrets -

The usual Big GOP money is spending big on Haley. Never mind how many people on the right don't support the old establishment GOP. Eff what the people want, its what the 5% want and are willing to pay for. hope it fails big time. Modern DEMOCRACY in action. -

Washington, DCCNN — US economic growth was even stronger in the third quarter than previously estimated, underscoring the economy’s remarkable resilience in the face of elevated inflation and high borrowing costs earlier this year. Gross domestic product, the broadest measure of economic output, rose at an annualized rate of 5.2% from July through September, according to the Commerce Department’s second estimate, released Wednesday morning. GDP is adjusted for inflation and seasonal swings. Wednesday’s latest estimate reflects an even faster pace of growth than the blistering 4.9% rate the department initially estimated. After a robust third quarter, the US economy is widely expected to grow at a much slower rate in final months of the year as pandemic savings dwindle and interest rates remain at a 22-year high. The US economy grew by 5.2% in the third quarter, even faster than previously estimated | CNN Business led by the S&P7 and not much else. Americans’ total credit card balance is $1.079 trillion in the third quarter of 2023, according to the latest consumer debt data from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. That’s up from a record $1.031 trillion in the second quarter of 2023, leaving the balance the highest since the New York Fed began tracking in 1999.

DEMOCRACY https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/29/politics/haley-koch-trump-2024/index.html Tuesday’s endorsement from Americans for Prosperity Action is the latest indication that Haley – on the strength of a shrewd campaign, a new generational message, and several strong debate performances – is now the GOP establishment’s favorite as the Trump-alternative. But despite the advantage of the Koch network’s tens of millions of dollars and its vast political machine, the endorsement poses new questions for Haley – the latest woman to take a turn trying to break the highest glass ceiling in politics. First, will this new boost relatively late simply make her one of the best-financed runners-up in US political history? Or can she use it to mount a serious challenge to the ex-president in building a path to the GOP nomination that does not yet seem to exist? -

just give them a mic and they openly tell us what they are. The amount of Attaching negative stereotypes based on RACE and Sex, to Terrorist sympathizing is off the charts. These are the same voices saying to take the shot or go die just last year. -

Carters' horrible administration led to. Reagan getting 489 electoral. The election was held on November 4, 1980.[85] Ronald Reagan and running mate George H. W. Bush defeated the Carter-Mondale ticket by almost 10 percentage points in the popular vote. The electoral college vote was a landslide, with 489 votes (representing 44 states) for Reagan and 49 for Carter (representing six states and Washington, D.C.). Republicans also gained control of the Senate for the first time since 1954 -

If/when the economy faulters and prices go down. It will be epic, but to bad people won't have jobs to afford the cheap crap. -
its kind of funny how these current thing mobs wear the kaffiyeh,niqab,al-amira, shayla in public, then take them off as the protest ends. Not so much of a choice in the places they are chanting for. And epic when they talk of converting (Tick Tock) while spewing feminist ideology(individual) in every other sentence. the two are not compatible.

The left sure made it one, then the media BS became the bigger story.

Just 7 companies are carrying the S&P 500 in 2023 | S&P Global Market Intelligence (spglobal.com) Big Tech is largely fueling the S&P 500's positive performance in 2023, with investors buying just seven stocks and selling pretty much everything else. Those seven stocks — Apple Inc., Alphabet Inc., Meta Platforms Inc. Microsoft Corp., NVIDIA Corp., Amazon.com Inc. and Tesla Inc. — have seen significant gains after a bleak 2022, and the collective gains have kept the S&P 500 in positive territory in 2023, with the overall index rising about 7% since the start of the year. Without these seven stocks, which make up nearly 26% of the large-cap index's total weight, the S&P 500 would be down 0.8% on the year https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/stock-market-outlook-magnificent-7-tech-stocks-outperform-sp-493-2023-11 Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon.com, Nvidia, Tesla and Meta Platform Every one of them has the usual vanguard, Black rock, state street as the largest. share holders.
