Kirsten Sinema have all received funds from Republican megadonor Harlan Crow.Billionaire Republican megadonor Harlan Crow rocketed into infamy on Thursdayinvestigation found that he has been giving lavish gifts to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas for decades now, as the Court, influenced by people like Crow, lurches further to the right.
But, as a search of public donation information shows, Crow has also been quietly funding another movement: conservative Democrats’s dogged mission in recent years to obstruct their own party.of the Federal Election Commission’s data on individual campaign contributions finds that Crow has donated to a litany of conservative Democrats in recent years as they positioned themselves as major roadblocks to climate and social bills that their party sought to pass over the past two years.
During crucial months of negotiation over Democrats’ reconciliation bill, known as the Build Back Better Act, Crow also funneled funds to members of the “Unbreakable Nine,” a group of conservative Democrat House members who threw a major wrench into the negotiations.
