According to federal records, dark money groups linked to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi have pumped nearly $20 million in hidden donor funding into the midterm elections.
Over the last three years, non-profits that obscure their sources have invested $85 million in election-related activities.
Schumer, Pelosi-affiliated groups funnel millions in anonymous donor cash into midterm elections

The Senate Majority and House Majority PACs, which are linked to Schumer and Pelosi, have received campaign contributions. The PACs fund Senate and House Democrats, many of whom rage against the impact of dark money in politics.
Federal Election Commission records show, Majority Forward, a nonprofit that does not disclose its contributors on tax forms, has spent roughly $15 million on the midterm elections through the end of March.
The Senate Majority PAC received all of Majority Forward’s funds for the midterm elections, making it the organization’s greatest donor this cycle. Majority Forward and the PAC are both led by J.B Poersch, a long-time Schumer supporter. Both organizations share office space and staff.
A spokesperson for Majority Forward said to Fox News, “Let’s be clear: corporate Republicans are the only ones standing in the way of increasing transparency and making progress on campaign finance reform.”
“We look forward to the day when Mitch McConnell and the Senate Republicans stop blocking these badly needed reforms,” the spokesperson said. “Until then, we’ll continue to play by the rules of the current system and level the playing field for Democrats in the face of enormous corporate special interest spending on the other side.”
Majority Forward’s midterm funding comes on the heels of a $60 million investment in the 2020 elections by the group to assist Democrats to reclaim the Senate majority. It has already invested $75 million in elections over the last two cycles, a significant increase from the $5.5 million it spent in 2016 and 2018.
The anonymous cash was routed into Schumer’s PAC by a Schumer-affiliated foundation, despite Schumer’s frequent criticism of dark money, which he claims “corrupted our politics.”
Schumer has also campaigned for conservative judicial groups to reveal their funders, despite the fact that he and other Democrats have profited from a number of dark money judicial groups.

This is why the Republicans are going to take over the senate and the house. In 22and 24
Democrats are so unfit and criminals. Biden is the biggest one.
Sounds like the democrats got caught with their hands in the cookie jar again. Maybe they will keep their hands out of the SS funds if we can get rid of the two at the top of the party Schumer and Polois
These PACs should have to divulge their contributors. Democrats are corrupt and need to be voted out.
Unfortunately these people will stop at nothing to get what they want, legally and illegally. They constantly lie about all things and coverup on a regular. They are the epitomy of the corrupt and worse of America.
The only thing that can change America back to goodness, pride, honesty, righteousnous,

This money is from the money that Congress voted on for infrastructure and the thieving democrats know it….nobody donates big money for a lost cause….democrats steal tax dollars for whatever they want….VOTE REPUBLICAN…..
This country was founded on Christian values. That’s why elected officials place right hand on top of the Bible as a pledge. To help Americans all their needs in raising the family.
It is not helping themselves become wealthy.
So there should be a reform on election voting and running for office.
On voting day make it is a holiday. All those voting should go to a polling place. No mailed in ballot, no early voting. Those who sick on voting day should not vote. And those who are out of town should not vote.
Limit the expenses of those who is s running for office:
For Mayor is 10 million
For congressman is 5 million
For Governor is 30 million
For Senator is 15 million
For President 50 million
All the money spent will come from the people. No donation from corporation or organization. All donation should go to Federal Election Commission. No donations to either party. The Federal Election Commission should distribute the money to Republican and Democratic parties evenly.
When is Chuck Schumer going to stop holding on to Nancy dress ? Every time he speaks, he sounds as if he is afraid of someone. Nancy could afford to put Millions into the pot for Mid-Term, that is the stock money that she inherit when no one was watching her, but Nancy, I’m telling you now, you will lose your money, because every State would become RED in November. Mark your calendar.
So what you going to do about it, nothing like you all been doing since this charade started,people are suffering not only from the lefts crimes ,but to from the republican party sitting around scratching there asses,throw the bastards to the masses and we’ll see they get what they deserve!
Cheaters never stop cheating until they are held accountable for their actions.There should have been accountability in the election in 2020 when it was proven there was mass cheating,yet the leaders did nothing about it,because too many crooks involved,both parties!
