Elizabeth Warren’s SuperPAC has finally filed its disclosure. The vast majority of its money - $14.5 million - came from a single donor: Karla Jurvertson, a super-rich Silicon Valley funder who had previously donated to the DNC on behalf of Warren’s campaign.
The Warren campaigned had previously obtained a $100k donation to the DNC to allow it access to a valuable database, so it’s not as if @ewarren can credibly claim this SuperPAC donor - who donated almost $15 million in dark money - was some stranger:

The $14.5m Warren SuperPAC funder was long married to venture capitalist Stephen Juvertson, who made his fortune as an early investor in Elon Musk’s Tesla & SpaceX. Karla - the funder of the SuperPAC - is on the board of @emilyslist, caught working on anti-Sanders smears ads. 👍
Why didn’t Karla Jurvetson just say all along she was the one pouring almost $15m of dark money into Warren’s SuperPAC? Why disclose it only once it no longer matters? Is Warren going to denounce Jurvetson for doing this & refuse future donations? Is @emilyslist good with this?
So basically, @ewarren — who mocked “wine cave funderaisers” — had her campaign crash when it was running on the fumes of venture capitalist oligarch wealth, delivered in the form of $14.5m dark money SuperPAC contributions from a single donor.

Sounds like the right ending.
The Silicon Valley mega-donor who almost single-handedly fed Elizabeth Warren’s SuperPAC with $14.5 in dark-money venture capital wealth, @EmilysList Board Member Karla Jurvetson, also donated to Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s Arizona Senate campaign. #KidsInCages

Righteously and deceitfully pretending that it was Bernie who was "sucking up" to billionaires for funding and relying on SuperPACs and dark money - when it was she who was the one desperately relying on exactly that - turned out to be next-level slithering from @ewarren:
