NEW —

The Silicon Valley mega-donor pushing Democrats to go for broke on voting rights.

My profile of Karla Jurvetson — and her first big Washington push.

She's dropping money, talking up Chuck Schumer, and thinking of ways to pressure Kirsten Synema.

puck.news/karla-jurvetso…
On a conference call last month, Chuck Schumer explained the bind that Democrats were in when it came to voting rights.

One of the first tough questions he fielded came from none other than one of the party's single biggest donors: Karla Jurvetson.

Karla Jurvetson, one of the Democratic Party's single biggest donors, has talked to her network about finding and funding a primary challenger to Arizona senator Kyrsten Sinema in 2024.

This is an amazing leak ... but also not terribly surprising?

1. Billionaires don’t make their money off of income.

2. Billionaires have access to the world’s savviest accountants and lawyers.

I primarily want to know how ProPublica got the data!

propublica.org/article/the-se…
This is largely the system working as designed.

Tax avoidance, not tax evasion.

Deductions, philanthropy and other perfectly legal ways to slash someone’s tax bill.

Still amazing to see the numbers in print.
If you want to know how ProPublica got this massive leak, good luck. They’re not saying.

They understandably want to protect their sources, but the tradeoff (which I’m sure they thoughtfully weighed) is that it makes it harder for the public to assess the work.

🚀 🚀 Friends, time for Some Personal News:

After four wonderful years at Recode, I am pumped to help launch a new media company later this year.

Money in politics. Philanthropy. Billionaires.

More to come, but for now — smash that subscribe button:

For the last six years, I’ve been writing about how the Bill Gateses & Charles Kochs of the world are deploying their billions into soft power that we should unpack, debate and report the hell out of.

If you care about inequality, you need to care about the outrageously wealthy.
I’ll have more to say over the next few months, but in the meantime I’m going to begin narrating an email about this stratosphere of billionaires.

I think you’re going to find what we’re building to be pretty special.

🚀 🚀 Welcome to The Stratosphere:

🚨🚨Bill and Melinda Gates are getting divorced.

Potentially huge implications for the Gates Foundation.
Bill and Melinda Gates say they will “continue our work together at the foundation.”

But this obviously will be very complicated!
This is obviously a sad and personal story.

But given that Bill and Melinda Gates co-run one of the — if not THE — world’s most powerful and most venerated philanthropies, this is a massive story with enormous implications for the public at large.
