Y’all want to see what a ghost donor bot looks like?
Here’s the data from a 65 yo retired man living in a 962 sq ft house in Clawson, Michigan.
From 2019-2023 the FEC has recorded him making over 15,600 separate donations to political campaigns.
The list below shows the receiving campaign, the # of donations made and the total amount donated from 2019-2023
This list is just Presidential, Senate & House campaigns. It does not include the 5,000+ donations “he” made to Joint Fundraising Committees or the 1,000+ donations “he” made to leadership committees.
Now ask yourself this… who makes 517 different donations to Tim Scott’s presidential campaign and then turns around and makes 557 separate donations to Nikki Haley’s campaign?
Who donates 659 times to a congresswoman in another state but never gives a dime to any candidates running in their own district?
Answer? Bots.
Specifically, bots being ran by dark money groups who are using campaign funds to control their puppets in DC.
Think it’s just Republicans? HA! Democrats were the master minds of this scam.
Except I’ll give them credit bc unlike Reps who are always just out for themselves, Dems keep their eye on the prize of total control of Congress, ergo the bulk of their bot donations go through ActBlue where they’re able to better distribute them to the candidates who need it.
Here’s the numbers for an 86 year old man from Oak Park, Illinois. He made 11,285 donations to Democrats between April 11, 2019 and December 31, 2023.
That’s roughly 6.5 donations/day, every day, for 1,725 days straight.
Again, he’s 86 years old.
I’m going to be posting a lot more on this in the coming week but I just wanted to throw this out there for yall to think about.
All those lobbying numbers you get from OpenSecrets showing that AIPAC gave someone this much or the NRA game someone else that much- they don’t mean shit anymore.
This right here is where the real influence is being bought.
For the Republican it was $60,694 for the charts above and for the Democrat it was $136,215.
But remember the Republican’s numbers don’t include donations to Joint Fundraising Committees or Leadership PACs so it is more than $60k but I do t have the exact amount in front of me.
This post got me thinking… just what in the world *has* TPUSA been doing with all that money they’re raking in.
So I combed through the 2026 cycle FEC filings for the Turning Point PAC. And OFC the whole thing is weird and shady and makes no sense whatsoever if you assume the people behind the filings are acting in good faith… which I never do.
The treasurer for Turning Point PAC is currently a TPUSA employee named Joshua Parker. Parker assumed this position in April after longtime PAC treasurer Jeff Webb died in a freak pickleball accident.
Jeff Webb was the CEO of Varsity Brands, you know, the cheerleading empire and he was worth somewhere between $100 million and $1 billion when he died (turns out that monopolizing an entire kids sport and then jacking the prices through the roof year after year can be quite lucrative) So why he was running around in his late 70s playing treasurer for TPUSA’s federal PAC is still a mystery to me but regardless he’s no longer with us so I won’t be holding my breath waiting for answers on these ridiculous charges…
Most notable in these filings is the credit card merchant fees.
I’m just the first 4 months of 2026 Turning Point PAC has reported $3.068 million in receipts. They’ve spent 56% of that ($1.732 million) on “Credit Card Merchant Fees” with Anedot.
This is a considerable increase from the first year of this cycle, 2025, when they pulled in $2.023 million total and spent 23% of that ($456k) on CC merchant fees with Anedot.
Both of these figures are outrageous and very hard to believe, especially when broken down by month and compared to total monthly expenditures.
Turning Point PAC spent more on CC merchant fees in the first 2 months of this year than they did in the entire 2024 election cycle.
Their next largest vendor was a company many of you will be familiar with: 1TEN LLC
This is the company owned by Tyler Bowyer’s buddy Jake Hoffman.
1TEN LLC has received $606,102 in the 2026 cycle… most of it for services rendered for Andy Biggs who is running for Arizona governor.
There’s also this French email service they are paying $1,510/month for.
There’s only one other committee who has ever filed a receipt with the FEC using this company, a Democrat who ran for Senste in Florida in 2020, and he was paying $38.95/month for their service.
Alright friends it’s been a while so let’s dive back in and get to the bottom of where in the world did these people come from and how in the heck did they get so much power?
It took me a long time to finally admit we had to go back to the very beginning. I know this is the boring part but stick with me and I'll try to make it as painless as possible. You'll be glad you have this background when we get to the good stuff starting in the 70s.
If not, there’s a good chance he (or she) is on an all expenses paid tour of Israel- courtesy of the Israeli government- in order to become an “Ambassador for Israel.”

This is part of Israel’s latest plan to win back young people: they are going to woo over their pastors and get them disseminate Israeli government propaganda from the pulpit.
Back in early 2016 there were very few religious leaders who wanted anything to do with Donald Trump. Ted Cruz was their boy and they regularly declared Trump supporters to be “not real Christians.”
However there was one group of holy rollers who threw in early with the Donald and that was the televangelists.
A largely ignored segment of the Christian Right, prosperity preachers and charismatics pastors were actually a perfect fit for Trump.
There were even some who claimed Trump’s presidency had been prophesized a decade earlier.
While most people roll their eyes at stuff like this, Donald Trump shrugged his shoulders and said “meh, why not? Welcome to the team!”
