A propaganda story in HD08, told in 4 pictures #txlege
This propaganda story from the Young Conservatives Of Texas PAC for HD08 was sponsored by Empower Texans, who have provided McNutt with contributions of $300k this reporting period (59.7% of his total) and the other ET connections who have given another $155k (31%) #txlege
In case anyone was confused by the first post, in HD08 Thomas McNutt gave $30k to the Young Conservatives Of Texas PAC, $10k on 05/04/18 and $20k on 05/09/18. (Pic 1 and 2 at the top of the thread) #txlege
Young Conservatives PAC spent $41,397 this filing period, with $26,337 going to a group called Advocacy Insight (Pic 3 at the top of the thread) #txlege
On 05/07, Young Conservatives pays Advocacy Insight $8,779 for a mailer for Thomas McNutt. (Remarkably close to the amount McNutt had JUST given the Young Conservatives PAC on 05/04) #txlege (Pic 4)
On 05/10, Young Conservatives pays Advocacy Insight $17,558 for another McNutt mailer. (Remarkably close to the $20k McNutt had JUST given Young Conservatives on 05/09) #txlege (Pic 4)
Soooo, Young Conservatives continues to be a pay to play PAC. You give them money, they send out mailers "endorsing" you. Pretty shady business and the epitome of propaganda, considering McNutt is spending money Empower has given him, attempting to fake "broad support" #txlege
