The breakfast is run by the secretive Christian group, The Family, which has been bankrolled by GOP billionaire Ron Cameron.
After Trump's loss, Cameron gave more than $100,000 to Sens. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) and David Perdue (R-GA) as they amplified Trump's lies.
Two days after Perdue and Loeffler called for Raffensperger to resign, Cameron gave them donations of $2800 and $5600.
But he wasn't done.
As it became more clear that Biden had won, Cameron ramped up his donations.
In late Nov. and early Dec. he gave more than $150,000 to two PACs focused on boosting Loeffler and Perdue.
Georgia United Victory was largely bankrolled by Loeffler's husband.
The Georgia Battleground Fund was a joint fundraising committee with the NRSC. Many of its ads featured Sen. Maj. Leader Mitch McConnell, who had yet to acknowledge the legitimacy of Biden's victory.
The Georgia Battleground Fund also produced this Facebook ad in which Donald Trump, Jr., tells viewers to "help save Georgia and America."
Another post-election donor was Family leader Doug Burleigh, who with his wife gave to Trump and the NRSC -- which was focusing on Loeffler and Perdue.
It was Burleigh who had helped Maria Butina get invitations for Russians to attend the 2017 breakfast: tyt.com/stories/4vZLCH…
Sen. James Lankford (R-OK), the 2019 breakfast co-chair, was in the process of objecting to the counting of Arizona's Electoral College votes, when he was interrupted by the evacuation due to Trump supporters storming the Senate.
There's a lot more to this story, including the dynamic between Cameron and the breakfast's leading Democrat, Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE), which I've reported on before and touch on in the story.
Neither they, nor The Family, responded to my requests for comment.
I should add that Lankford yesterday released an extraordinary statement addressing how black people saw his objection to the vote.
I'd call it an apology but Lankford apologizes less for what he did than for a failure to recognize how it would be seen:
Farmer Paul Adams said he'd read about big farms that were somehow getting certified as organic -- flooding the market with organic milk, driving prices down and small farms out of business.
Their exchange was captured on video:
Paul couldn't remember the big organic dairy farm he had read about, but told me it was Natural Prairie Dairy Farms, one of a handful of big Texas farms that now produce more milk than all of Wisconsin's small dairy farms combined.
As Ti-Hua reports, Oklahoma's tribes would be powerless to prevent wholesale dumping on tribal lands or protect them from a vast array of toxic materials and pollutants.
The EPA never appears to have made the public aware that this decision-making process was under way.
As Ti-Hua first reported, the state's tribes were first told on Aug. 25--with a response deadline of Sept. 21, less than one month: tyt.com/stories/4vZLCH…
BOMBSHELL: The EPA set a deadline of MONDAY for Oklahoma tribes to respond to Gov. Kevin Stitt's request for the EPA to give HIM control over environmental regulations on tribal lands.
Ti-Hua previously reported that Stitt had quietly made the request to the EPA after the Supreme Court gave the tribes sovereignty over eastern Oklahoma.
Now, we have Stitt's letter ... and it goes farther than anyone knew.
A former EPA official told us that Stitt's request included language that would let the state permit fracking...
...and the dumping of mercury, PCBs and other hazardous waste on tribal lands...
Publicly, Stitt and Sen. Jim Inhofe responded to the landmark ruling by pledging to work with Native American leaders to figure out the legal/regulatory implications of the Supreme Court’s seismic power shift.
Here are their press releases from July 20:
But on Aug. 3, Stitt privately told a farming industry group that he had asked Trump’s EPA to hand environmental authority over to the STATE...
I shared some of our findings with @CAIRNational and @hijrahva, which did not relay any individual acts of bias, but said they were aware of systemic problems -- many of which predate the coronavirus.
CAIR's Robert McCaw said TYT's analysis, "certainly does raise a number of questions.”
“Without a complete picture on the PPP loan program’s data, it’s hard to know whether these numbers are a cause of concern for mosques and Islamic community centers.”
