#TX18 candidate @CDMenefee is getting a big boost from the Fairshake crypto PAC:

[Teddy Schleifer @teddyschleifer]

NEW —

Here's the first ad from the Fairshake super PACs against Al Green, the Democratic congressman from Houston who is about to get attacked by the crypto industry.

No mention of crypto — just a message of generational change.

Fairshake is spending $1.5 million against Green over the next few weeks, as @ShaneGoldmacher and I reported this afternoon.

This cycle, two of the biggest donors to BOLD America are Coinbase (the Crypto lobby) and International Bancshares Corporation, a bank that has given $625,000 this cycle to GOP Super PACs to help Republicans keep their Senate majority.

[Audrey Denney @audreydenney]

Crypto money is now trying to buy this election.

This is the problem with money in politics. When powerful interests think a real grassroots campaign might win, they try to drown it out with outside spending & attacks.

But they can’t outspend people power if we organize. (1/2)

[Our Revolution @OurRevolution]

Anyone paying attention to the growing alliance between billionaire money, crypto power, and pro-war political spending should be alarmed.

AIPAC celebrated defeating another critic of Israel’s war.

Crypto-backed interests spent heavily against Al Green.

And more and more outside money is flooding races to punish dissent and enforce ideological loyalty.

This is bigger than one election.

That is a dangerous direction for democracy.

[Teddy Schleifer @teddyschleifer]

This could be an early, quick night for the crypto industry, which spent $6.5 million to take out Al Green.

[Secular Talk ([email protected]) @KyleKulinski]

This sucks. Al Green is one of the GOATS and his replacement is a crypto-funded zionist. We need to get money out of politics so nefarious forces can't use a money cannon to get their way. I'm so sick of the open corruption.

[Brendan Fischer @brendan_fischer]

What’s really striking is that this amounts to an anti-Trump politician helping pro-Trump billionaires and crypto corporations sanitize their message to elect candidates that the crypto industry believes will benefit their bottom line. 🧵

[Andrew Perez @andrewperezdc]

A new wrinkle to crypto's election buying: Jasmine Crockett taped an ad for a crypto super PAC to help the industry take out her Dem colleague Al Green.

“I can’t think of another instance of a sitting lawmaker appearing in an industry-funded super PAC ad," @brendan_fischer says

This Bipartisan Crypto Bill Could Make Trump Family ‘Vanderbilt-Level Rich’

The U.S. Congress is working on a dangerous gift for Trump and the crypto billionaires buying elections.

[Oppo Drop 💣 @OppoDrop]

🚨A crypto Super PAC backing Rep. Rob Menendez is sending mailers featuring his former opponent, Assemblyman Ravi Bhalla, implying an endorsement.

Bhalla says his photo is being used without his consent. This comes as Menendez faces a fierce primary challenge by Mussab Ali.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

Today, you endorsed a candidate in GA-13 who has benefitted from over $4 million in crypto PAC money.

GA-13, vote @evertonblairjr tomorrow.

[Sabby Sabs @SabbySabs2]

Here’s Jasmine Crockett in a Crypto super PAC ad. 😬

[Mother Jones @MotherJones]

In 2022, Peter Thiel bought a Senate seat for JD Vance with $15 million in campaign expenditures—a pittance for a man whose net worth has increased by about $12 million a day.

This year, a handful of cryptocurrency billionaires may be on the verge of helping to secure one in Alabama for even less.

And Crypto made Trump (at least) $1.2 BILLION dollars richer. In the words of the Iceman himself "I just made the whole connection" 🤔

[Bitcoin Magazine @BitcoinMagazine]

JUST IN: Legendary rapper Drake raps about Bitcoin in his new song:

"I am a BTC crypto big-timer" 🚀

[Patrick Svitek @PatrickSvitek]

Jasmine Crockett makes direct-to-camera appeal for Christian Menefee in latest TV ad in #TX18 runoff from crypto super PAC Protect Progress.

Crockett first backed Menefee when he was in a special election last year and has stuck with him in current race against Al Green.

@suealtman This would hit 10x harder if you weren't soliciting Super PAC support from a big AI company https://t.co/n48dMZqlzw

[Ben Dziobek @BenDziobek]

Sue met with Public First Action, Anthropic’s PAC, recently.

Would love for once in this race for her to talk about what she’s doing right now instead of relitigating 2024 when she got her ass handed to her.

Jasmeet Bains in #CA22 signaling to crypto super PACs.

Supports every single proposal from the crypto industry in her questionnaire.

[Luke Goldstein @lukewgoldstein]

A Dem candidate running for Congress is backed by crypto PACs, Gov Wes Moore, Steny Hoyer and still currently lists Larry Ellison’s Oracle as his current employer…

[The Lever @LeverNews]

A Democratic House frontrunner worked as a lobbyist for Oracle — Larry Ellison’s Big Tech giant with ties to ICE — while serving in office.

Now crypto is spending $300K to put him in Congress, after he pushed a pro-crypto bill.
