I know that but it's not connected to the topic.
Why don't you mention this list of billionaire donors to republicans. Oh no. Democrats are allowed to have wealthy donors. That's a privilege not extended to poor poor. You arrogant piece of shit. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckvvlv3lewxo

Democrats get major funding from rich donors made rich by their insider business connections to government spending.

Of course they do and you have all the evidence to prove it. I further add that not one republican would ever do that. God fearing business men donating to the RNC would never do that. It's scurrilous for people to think they would.

Here is an introduction to the centuries old often corrupt practice of political cronyism:

Favoritism, Cronyism, and Nepotism

An introduction to the ethical issues presented by favoritism in government.

www.scu.edu

What are favoritism, cronyism, and nepotism?​

As favoritism is the broadest of these related terms, we'll start with its definition. Basically favoritism is just what it sounds like; it's favoring a person not because he or she is doing the best job but rather because of some extraneous feature-membership in a favored group, personal likes and dislikes, etc. Favoritism can be demonstrated in hiring, honoring, or awarding contracts. A related idea is patronage, giving public service jobs to those who may have helped elect the person who has the power of appointment.

Favoritism has always been a complaint in government service. In 2002, a survey from the federal government's Office of Personnel Management found that only 36.1 percent of federal workers thought promotions in their work units were based on merit. (Government Executive Magazine, "Playing Favorites," by Brian Friel, October 2004). They believed that connections, partisanship, and other factors played a role.

Cronyism is a more specific form of favoritism, referring to partiality towards friends and associates. As the old saying goes, "It's not what you know but who you know," or, as blogger Danny Ferguson put it, "It's not what you don't know; it's who your college roommate knows." Cronyism occurs within a network of insiders-the "good ol' boys," who confer favors on one another.

Nepotism is an even narrower form of favoritism. Coming from the Italian word for nephew, it covers favoritism to members of the family. Both nepotism and cronyism are often at work when political parties recruit candidates for public office.

George Soros has donated hundreds of millions of dollars to democrats and his hundreds of tax-empt foundations have received billions of American tax dollars in leftist federal funding as a result.

Chicago And Rigged Elections? The History Is Even Crazier Than You've Heard (blockclubchicago.org) 10-24-18

Chicago And Rigged Elections? The History Is Even Crazier Than You’ve Heard

It was Mayor Anton Cermak, the first in an unbroken stream of Democratic mayors since 1931, who created what would became known as the infamous “Democratic Machine,” said Bob Crawford, a now-retired journalist who covered city politics for decades for WBBM-AM and was considered the dean of the City Hall press corps. The Machine ensured voters picked the right candidates, and the people who worked in it weren’t shy about using money, bribes or fake identities to get votes for Democrats.

Through decades of organization, the Machine would become a “monolithic political organization that crisscrossed racial and ethnic boundaries in the city,” Crawford said. The Machine’s operators took advantage of cynicism among voters, who figured they at least had clean water and other necessities thanks to the Machine-backed candidates, leading to systemic fraud, Crawford said.

And the people involved in the Machine didn’t just cheat to win — they cheated so they could get major victories that could give their candidates a “mandate” and discourage potential opponents from rival parties from running for office.

Credit: Wikimedia CommonsMayor Anton Cermak (left) helped create the Democratic machine, but experts said it was Mayor Richard J. Daley (right) who mastered how to use it.

The Machine operated for decades, but it was Mayor Richard J. Daley (who held office from 1955 to 1976) who mastered it, Crawford said.

“It was Cermak who got the credit for actually creating what came to be known as the Democratic Machine,” Crawford said. “Daley got the credit for turning it into an art form.”

In fact, Robert F. Kennedy once said Daley was “the whole ballgame” — meaning if candidates had Daley and his Machine on their side, they could carry all of Illinois, Crawford said.

Notably, the Daley-era Machine has been said to have “stolen” the presidential election for JFK, Robert’s older brother, through voter fraud. (Republicans in suburban Lake and DuPage counties tried to steal the vote, too, Crawford and Simpson said, and they think Kennedy probably would have won Illinois anyway.)

Here are a few of the tricks the Machine used:

• Electoral rolls are supposed to keep track of who is registered to vote. The rolls would be rigged so dead people’s names still appeared on them, Crawford said, meaning others could vote for the candidate of their choice in the dead person’s name.

Sometimes, people working for the Machine would even go into cemeteries and take the names off of tombstones, then go back and fill out voter registration cards with the dead person’s names as if they were still alive, Crawford said.

• Election judges are supposed to keep an eye out for anything fishy at the polls. Republicans had a small presence in the city, though, and it was difficult to find Republican volunteers for the post, Crawford said.

Democrats would pretend to be Republicans and would volunteer, meaning there were actually two Democrats at polling places. Officers who provided security got their jobs from the Machine and weren’t going to say anything about what happened, Crawford said.

• People would be promised $5, a warm meal or a drink at the local pub to vote for the “right” people, said Crawford and Simpson.

Sometimes, the precinct captain would steal a ballot, mark it and give it to someone to turn in, Simpson said. That person would then bring the blank ballot they’d been given at the polling place back to the captain, who’d fill it out for the next person to come in, and so on.

An old sewer boss, Ed Quigley, once told Crawford he had a special way to make sure people voted the right way: When a voter would go behind a curtain to cast his or her ballot, they had to move to to one side to vote for a Democrat or the other side to vote for a Republican. Quigley would look under the curtain at the voter’s feet to make sure they were on the Democratic side, Crawford said.

• No Republicans to watch for suspicious activity in the precinct? The Democratic precinct captain would just vote for people who didn’t come in, Simpson said.

• Ward committeemen would go to nursing homes and “help” senior people with marking absentee ballots by holding the voter’s hand, Crawford said. Nursing homes would cooperate because they needed a good relationship with the city, which inspects them, he said.

Crooked politicians have almost always been involved in nepotism, cronyism, favoritism and the like. Crooked politicians typically earn far more from corruption than from their salaries as paid public officials. Crooked officials with the power to do so award lucrative contracts to those they favor for whatever reason. Crooked officials put unfair government pressure on business competitors of pals. Crooks award government grants to phonies in fake businesses desguised as 'helpful' organizations allegedly fighting noble issues such as poverty and the environment, and the list is endless.

Government money doled out to friends and associates on the inside track of the flow of government funds is called pork spending.

$100 million is nothing compared to the billions of dollars donated to democrats by people and organizations that have made tens of billions of dollars from generous government funding of their operations. The US government (Democrats, mostly, with little support from Republicans) gives hundreds of millions of 'free' government taxpayer dollars each year to Planned Parenthood in spite of Planned Parenthood making enough money from other sources that it does not need federal funding.

Here is what PP reported about their yearly income a few years ago:

Planned Parenthood Taxpayer Funding Up; Abortion and “Transgender” Services High Priorities

Planned Parenthood’s 2021-2022 annual report is out: Taxpayer funding is at an all-time high and abortion remains a key priority. Meanwhile, visits for actual health care—like cancer screening and prevention services and prenatal care—continue to decline.

www.heritage.org

On the financial side of things, the contrast is striking. Planned Parenthood reported:

• $2.3 billion in net assets, up from $2.1 billion the previous year.
• $670.4 million in government funding, up from $633.4 million the previous year.
• $1.9 billion in total revenue, up from $1.7 billion the previous year.
• $204.7 million in excess revenue (calculated by subtracting total expenses from total revenue), up from $133.7 million the previous year.
• 727,000 active individual contributors, up from 590,000 the previous year.

***************
Interestingly, PP reported it received more than $670 million dollars, of which it donated more than $676 million dollars to democrats in campaign donations. In other words, every dime the democrat party gives to PP is returned to the democrat party as campaign donations. The democrat party is funding the democrat party with tax dollars disguised as donations to charity. Here is what PP reported in campaiugn contributions to democrats:

Planned Parenthood PAC Contributions to Federal Candidates

Planned Parenthood gave $676,765 to federal candidates in the 2021-2022 election cycle. See the details.

You mean like republicans do?
Heaven forbid those evil democrats are doing it. They shouldn't be allowed.
That privilege is exclusively for god fearing republicans to keep them out of govt.

The whole system has collapsed.
