Corruption in the GOPe

Some readers will have watched Tucker Carlson’s segment last night on Paul Singer, someone I had never heard of before. The segment interviewed residents of Sidney, Nebraska about the destruction of their town as a result of Singer’s predatory actions.

Today, the blog Ace of Spades has much more, pulling back more of the masks of the Uniparty:

Tucker Carlson Obliterates Free Beacon Funder & 

Possible FusionGPS Paymaster Paul Singer, 

as Well As His Owned-and-Operated Pet Senator Ben Sasse

This is an important story. Both video and a transcript at the link.

Definitely watch until the very end, where Tucker Carlson lays into Ben Sasse, one of Paul Singer's wholly-owned subsidiaries, for refusing to make any comment whatsoever -- or even respond to inquiries from Carlson -- about his views about Paul Singer's destruction of a town in the state Sasse allegedly represents.

Here's a Fox news print story about the topic.

People like Paul Singer control the GOP and are effectively in a conspiracy against actual GOP voters. When Singer's kid announced he was gay, Paul Singer basically mandated that the GOP become pro-gay marriage, and the GOP complied.

Another billionaire funder, Stanley Hubbard, told, in 2016, his own pet candidate Scott Walker that he must not question the Corporate Class Consensus on birthright citizenship and high levels of tolerated, supposedly illegal immigration.

Hubbard issued his rebuke, and Walker changed his tune to sing the Corporate Class anthem within a day.

. . .

Paul Singer calls the shots in the GOP. If you ever wonder why the GOP supports so many unpopular positions with incredible zeal and passion (such as vulture capitalism), and why the GOP runs away from some popular issues like border enforcement, and why the GOP takes the Democrat side on issues which are 50/50 (gay stuff, abortion), it's because very rich liberals like Paul Singer, who have no interest in the GOP or conservatism except to pervert it into a tool to help put more money into their pockets, have willed it so . . .

The full report by Ace of Spades is here.  There will always be vultures like Singer, whether in a free market or in a government-controlled economy, but it is particularly scary to see yet more corruption in the political class, including most of the GOP.
