Just a moment...

A progressive group that bolstered Robert F. Kennedy Jr. during the 2024 presidential campaign is also supporting a new war room that wants to scuttle his nomination for Health and Human Services Secretary.

"Dark money"
It's just money. There's no such thing as shadow bucks. Stupid "deep state" fearmongering bullshit. Give me some scary dollars, I want to see if they buy more groceries. Are these haunted bills accruing interest quicker?
- dark money
  noun
  funds raised for the purpose of influencing elections by non-profit organizations that are not required to disclose the identities of their donors. "more than $3 million in dark money poured into that race through non-profit groups"

  There is sure such a thing as hiding who is giving you donations.
