An outstanding much needed analysis. No wonder that infamous Sam Bankman-Fried is still in only house arrest and his parents, both professors at Stanford Law School, have not even been charged yet, although having been actively involved and father also being a full time employee in their son’s, SBF criminal organizations.
Thank you for Exposing this Rogues Gallery of Manipulators and Morons. No thinking, cognizant human would support biden at this stage unless it was for their own agenda.
Unfortunately, many otherwise smart Americans simply don't pay attention to politics until A) it's election time in two weeks, or B) they suffer the consequences of poor policies themselves.
This very good information and much appreciated. I wonder if the Kennedy Campaign will do the same with top Republican finders? If not, why? There are a lot of billionaires funding the RNC as well.
We can't speak for the Kennedy campaign, but The Kennedy Beacon may well do that at some point. In the short term, Kennedy is running for the Democratic nomination, meaning his opponents are all Democrats. Because of that, spending too much time on Republicans before the primary wouldn't make much sense for us. Once it's RFK Jr. vs. the Republican nominee, then you can bet our attention will turn in their direction!
Thank you so much for your response. Your comment makes perfect sense. I only raise the issue because your reporting exposing only one side tends to support the other. I, as a supporter of RFK Jr., doubt that that is his intent. I enjoy your work and will continue reading. Thank you for giving us the important insights you share.
Most would find it surprising that Soros donates to both right and left. These people have zero loyalties outside of money and control. Manipulation is their talent
Perhaps to even the playing field it may help to put the election process behind a 'firewall' where access is granted equally to all those with valid 'citizenship' credentials, and they are each given credits to spend on political endorsements without censoring? A expansion of the 'one man/woman, one vote' fundamental concept behind voting....just extended to the process of political campaigning? Perhaps a media structure to be the venue for this open source national structure would help focus the discussions and provide equal access for all? Just some musings....
Way back in the -- was it 1970s or 1980s? -- my Congressperson, whose name I have forgotten, dedicated himself to "campaign finance reform" and got some laws passed. But those laws seem to have done zero good. I give up. Let's don't waste energy on this issue when there are planet-decisive issues: nuclear abolition! Climate change!
Where problems exist, they should be addressed. Campaign finance reform, nuclear weapons/energy, the environment - none of these things can be dismissed as unimportant!

There is a near silence on this financial fraud of the century. For good reasons -- massive financial corruption of DNC operatives and critical role of once famous Stanford University in massive DNC/CIA censorship network:
Remember -- Stanford administrative terror led to suicide of a wonderful and beloved-by-all goalie of women soccer team.
The ratio of administrative surveillance to students is close to 1:1.
Stanford University is now fully dominated by Censorship Industrial Complex and has myriad censorship operators and entities, including infamous Renee DiResta of “Stanford Internet Observatory”.
IMPORTANT -- just look whom SBF (Samuel Bankman-Fried) and his parents (both full-time Stanford Law School professors – father also a full-time employee of criminal FTX and Alameda $40B swindle and mother - financing arm of Dem. party) – whom they financed by hundreds of millions of dollars.
See the list of 30+ organizations that have major FTX "investments": The SBF Scandal: The Players and the Money – far more extensive and – truly alarming “Covid pandemic activities” https://brownstone.org/articles/sbf-scandal-players-money/
Possibly because these are still “early days” — my own dear breadwinning spouse won’t even talk about anyone until much much closer to voting day. He’s a busy guy.
As both a supporter of Kennedy's campaign and an independent reporter, I can't help but point out the blind spots in this article. While it is an informative breakdown of supporters and their general claims to fame (and fortune) it does fail to acknowledge that Kennedy has had to start his own super PAC to, in Kennedy's own words, to not just bring a knife "to a gun fight." I would be interested in a response article that addresses the criticisms which have been raised about the fact that so far the largest donor to the Kennedy PAC seems to be a Republican. I have also recently read about (granted on the Media Matters web site) that another PAC has launched in supposed support of Kennedy. This latter one seems to consist of some pretty shady characters so it would be useful to know if this is an actual Kennedy PAC or something else shilling off of Kennedy's name. The other major gap I would love to see addressed in a subsequent article is a breakdown of how Kennedy might rightfully have access to funds donated to the general election funds of the Democratic party, with the leading questions being, what does it take for a Democratic candidate to qualify for these funds? Early in the article you also raise the issue of candidates being beholden to large donors. Again, Kennedy does have at least one PAC with large donors. Should we expect that same standard from him? Will he be beholden to his large donors and their agenda? Asking these questions entirely in good faith as someone who genuinely wants to see Kennedy win.
ELECTORAL MATH: 1776 AS A GRAND OLIGARCH 'EXOGENOUS' (Latin 'other-generated') DECEPTION
Livelihood trumps Politics for all people. The founding fathers of the American Revolution studied the ECONOMIC DEMOCRACIES Edem. of the ~ 110 First Nations of Turtle-Island (N. America) organized into ~23 Confederacies continentally.
1st Nations economically included & welcomed European refugees into their abundance & governance system. By 1700 85% of all transactions in the Turtle-Island colonies were mediated by 1st Nation 'Wampum' (Quahog-shell manufactured string-shell about 1 centimetre by 3 mm with a hole drilled down its length). Settlers were economically integrating, genetically intermarrying & re-adopting their ancient indigenous Celtic & Slavic superior practices in economic production & human relations. We were relearning our own ancient Celtic & Slavic indigenous systems of EDem as in our many Half-Blood (Metis & Mestizo) Communities. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/c-relational-economy/8-economic-democracy
Indigenous EDem includes universal Multistakeholder 'Participation' (L 'part' = 'share'), investment, ownership & Board-Representation in the specialized Production-Society-Guilds of the collective Domestic, Industrial & Commercial economies. Essential to sovereign economy & policy is time-based equivalency-accounting on the String-shell Value System (eg. Wampum on Turtle-Island, Quipu in S. America & Cowrie in indigenous Celtic-Slavic Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia & all islands.) https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/c-relational-economy
For many 10s of 1000s of years, all humanity's worldwide 'indigenous' (L. 'self-generating') ancestors & 1st Nations here understand that; 'Political' ('Workings of the many') 'Democracy' (Gk 'Power-of-the-people') must have a foundation of EDem or it is not sovereign.
COLONIAL INSTITUTIONAL AMNESIA. WHAT HAPPENED?
By 1700 with European Metal-Coin money sitting idle & unused, Governors & their much higher Oligarch masters panicked & brought over many 10s of 1000s of soldiers, across the Americas in all Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, English, French colonies coordinated at the highest levels in brutal violence, murder & genocide. Settlers as refugees by the millions from exogenous Oligarch mismanagement & perpetual war, now mostly related as family to 1st Nations still submitted & participated in the burning of the Wampum & Quipu (S. America) & 1st Nation international Graphic Writing Pictorial Character Continental writing & record system.
1st Nations, being brutally slaughtered & dispossessed in genocide, have been waiting for 500 years for settlers in our fake democracy to wake-up to our own ancient indigenous humanity.
The founders knew their colonial imposed fake democracy system for white land-owning males typically slave owners, was being financed by Oligarchs. Large finance back then in the millions of 1776 $$ was considered necessary to train, arm & supply the few core 'revolutionaries' who took part. Founders being blinded by the basic violence of their colonial worldview & ongoing genocide of 1st Nations, deliberately chose Oligarchy's hidden fake perverted 'money' (Greek 'mnemosis' = 'memory') command & controls just as today Hidden Campaign Finance, Oligarch control of fake 'Media' (L 'medium' = 'middle' = 'both-sides-presented').
The US Constitution has nice sounding principals & political practices to the colonial exogenous neophyte, but not the essential underlying 'economy' (Gk 'oikos' = 'home' + 'namein' = 'care-&-nurture'), which indigenous people understand for 10s of 1000s of years. With indigenous Finance destroyed & living in a superficial fake democratic Psyop, we live today in what Eisenhower & many Founding Fathers variously warned as a Finance, Media, Religion, Education, Military-Industrial, Legislative, Judicial, Pharma-Med COMPLEX.
CAN COLONIAL OLIGARCH INDOCTRINATED & CONTROLLED HUMANITY RESTORE ECONOMIC DEMOCRACY?
Our indigenous ancestors understood bottom-up Cultural 'Fractals', cultivated in the ~100 (50-150) person Multihome-Dwelling-Complex (eg. Longhouse-apartment, Pueblo-townhouse & Kanata-village) once ubiquitous on every continent. Loving, intimate, intergenerational, female-male, interdisciplinary, critical-mass, economies-of-scale enable livelihood businesses to start & develop among friends & family, safely with as little business risk as possible. Thorough accounting is made for all contributions, noted, empowered in decision-making (capital), ownership & livelihood compensation.
RE-ESTABLISHING RELIABLE 'MEDICAL' (L. 'Medium' = 'middle') SCALING with PROACTIVE POSITIVE CULTURAL 'ECONOMIC' (Greek 'oikos' = 'home' + 'namein' = 'care-&-nurture') ACCOUNTING 70% of people today live in multihomes with an average of 32 dwelling-units = ~100 people. 20% of Multihome-dwellers are extended-families living inten-tionally in proximity for social & economic collaboration. Multihome-extended-family contribute trillions of $ of the most individually appropriate goods, services, sharing caring/year as Turtle-Island, N-America's largest essential Economic sector, albeit unrecognized by government, education & institutions. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/C-relational-economy/1-extending-our-welcome-participatory-multihome-cohousing
Fair point, and we welcome your perspective - after all, we don't have to agree on everything in order to unify on the issues where we do! It could be argued the obligation to debate is more of a moral one, or an ideal one, than a legal obligation. If it's been decades since the last time an incumbent debated his challengers, then perhaps this is a call to rethink that standard, especially given Biden's historically low approval ratings across the board.
On the other hand, Biden is the only candidate on the institutional side that has any evidence of being viable. Despite peoples' concerns, there's a severe lack of evidence to support the idea that Gavin Newsom has any national support whatsoever - remember that he faced a recall in California, which he only narrowly survived. And by all accounts I've heard, Michelle Obama has no desire to return to politics. Kamala Harris would be the most likely pick if Biden is somehow unable to continue (age, etc.) But Harris does not have the same institutional support, and this would likely result in internal troubles for Democrats.
This is why RFK Jr. is the only viable challenger to Biden.
Thanks, I hope that 30% will at least vote against the current administration over this issue. among those are many disaffected Trump voters from what I read in other comment threads.
Excellent Article Jessica !
Jessica does fantastic deep dives, and connects many important dots!
An outstanding much needed analysis.

Absolutely. The "left-right" paradigm as it looks on first glance is really not as black and white as it would like people to think.
Perhaps to even the playing field it may help to put the election process behind a 'firewall' where access is granted equally to all those with valid 'citizenship' credentials, and they are each given credits to spend on political endorsements without censoring? A expansion of the 'one man/woman, one vote' fundamental concept behind voting....just extended to the process of political campaigning?

This. Our country was has become “the best democracy money can buy.” Who knew that “a search engine” would be a key player to usher in fascism.
I wonder if Republicans are now regretting fighting campaign finance reform for decades.
Could be!
