Return of the worlds richest Jedi

the thread is about left wing hypocrisy. Bezos being a left winger that runs a newspaper and also wants a 10 billion dollar defense contract. it points out ties between media and power as well. the fact that he is a billionaire that contributes huge sums to the same causes as Koch is enough for a thread.

obviously it is his business that is tied to the government with press leaks and defense contracts. what a tangled web

This literally makes no sense. Your thread is about a left-winger lobbying for right-wing causes and politicians and causes as the Kochs? I’m not sure you even know what you’re arguing, other than “left bad” even though the leftist in question is donating to right-wing causes and pols (his most recent donations to pols were Hatch and Chaffetz).

yeah, and i keep screaming that until you take the gigantic money out of politics/elections you’re gonna have people/companies do what Bezos is doing.

damn, this stuff really isn’t that hard.

George Soros does? When the hell did that happen?

read the OP again it is not that complicated.

I own a paper, I am the richest man in the world, I make huge political donations, I spend huge amounts on lobbying, and I want a 10 billion dollar defense contract.

talk about money and politics. but I am not a conservative so it is no problem.

do you think excluding corporations that donate from government contracts is a prohibition on free speech, or is it avoiding conflicts of interest.

how about banning government employees from lobbying firms?

I can tell you this, if there is no return people do not invest.

George soros does what?

Support the Republican Party. All billionaires support the Republican party. Last I checked he’s a billionaire, so when did he switch?

Your words:

And here we have a left-winger donating to right-wing causes and politicians. You’re not making any sense.

Do you want big money out of politics or just left-wing money out of politics?

what right wing causes are you speaking of? check your bs

some things are stated sardonically after kindergarten

Is Orinn Hatch an R or D?

What about Jason Chaffetz? R or D?

Supporting a super PAC trying to get veterans elected? Does that sound more R or D to you? Since, you know, Democrats hate the troops.

sounds like a guy that wants a defense contract for 10 billion per year. I think the article stated that the pac does 50 50, did you read the article?

His last two pol donations were to Rs.

I read the article-doesn’t matter, Democrats hate veterans, so there’s no possible way it will be 50/50.

read the article again.

vets are pro defense.

No need. Democrats hate vets and America.

Yeah, and Democrats are anti-defense, remember? Which means Bezos is supporting a Republican cause and belief.

Think.

Republicans and democrats are pro defense. durrr think. beat Russia.

The donations to WHF from Bezos and his family will benefit former employees of the Defense Department, something that DoD officials and politicians from both parties will likely appreciate.

Nope, only republicans. Democrats want open borders, love terrorism, and hate the military.
