Harlan Crow, the billionaire political donor with controversial links to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, has given the maximum contribution to Cornel West’s campaign for president.
Crow has previously called the longtime Princeton professor a “good friend,” according to The Wall Street Journal.
Hmmmmm. Opensecrets says Harlan Crow has donated: 14,700,000.00 to Polical canditates and parties over 30 years.
In 2022 Crow gave $184,400 to the National Rep. Congr. Comittee, and $750,000 The Congressional Leadership Fund ( a Rep. pac), and $150,000 to ‘take back the house 2022’, and $725,000 to Mitch McConnels pac, and $175,000 to the Rep. Party of Texas, and $96,000 to other Dem. candidates/groups.
2 Questions…
He donated how much to this guy?
and why is it news?
I think it should be news when a guy with a supreme court justice in his back pocket is giving someone else campaign money. But then I think that sort of thing is pretty important.
