The Journal Sentinel didn’t just take a page out of the liberal playbook with their latest story–it appears that they are writing the playbook for them, highlighting wealthy donors giving to Republican candidate Tom Tiffany while largely ignoring the fact that Epstein class billionaires have been doing the same for the Democrat Party for years.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel published a fundraising story that reads like it was written like any other Journal Sentinel piece that does the bidding for Democrats. Readers got a long look at one side of the equation and almost nothing about the Democrat running for governor. That is by design.
What the Journal Sentinel hacktivists forgot was Crowley spent some time fundraising in D.C.. On Tuesday, Sept. 15, Crowley headlined a downtown reception with special guests Gwen Moore and Mark Pocan. Host tickets started at $10,000. Friend tickets were $500. It would have been cheaper to just to attend a fish fry in West Allis, but that is your choice David.
While Crowley is mucking it up in DC, the Democratic Party of Wisconsin has been cashing out-of-state billionaire checks for years. LinkedIn cofounder Reid Hoffman is a longtime party donor and the top donor. State records and the Sentinel’s own fact check put his haul to the party at more than $15 million since 2019. Hoffman’s name appears thousands of times in the Epstein files while he also visited the island. He kept writing checks after the documents dropped, including $100,000 in December and $750,000 in April.
Right behind him sits Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, the Hyatt heir who cannot stop exporting his state’s politics across the border. Pritzker has donated about $8 million to the Wisconsin Democratic Party, the second-largest individual donor on the list. Wisconsin Democrats take the money then they lecture this state about billionaires as if Chicago’s governor is a neighborhood donor from Wauwatosa.
George Soros has piled in millions more at a humble $7 million himself. Out-of-state billionaires did not become a scandal in Milwaukee when the checks land on the correct letterhead. The Journal Sentinel should examine both sides of the money issue, but I suppose they were due for some in-kind contributions.
