, I'm excited to share the latest from CRC with you:
What could possibly go wrong with a nursing home strike? ([link removed]
An SEIU (Service Employees International Union) local threatened that its workers in Connecticut would strike on Friday, May 14. An agreement was reached mere hours before the strike, but not before the Democratic governor threatened to call out the Connecticut National Guide to fill in for striking workers at nursing homes. Apparently, there is a limit to Democrats' tolerance of union extortion, as CRC's Michael Watson reports here ([link removed]
When did the "cabal" that "saved" democracy in 2020 begin? ([link removed]
Molly Ball's notorious Time magazine article ([link removed] the left-wing "shadow campaign" to "save" the 2020 election only reported on the most recent exploits of this "conspiracy." In truth, the scheming that Ball claims popped up in 2020 actually predates Trump by decades, and her hero Michael Podhorzer, longtime AFL-CIO political director, has hosted such "cabals" for years. I name names of more conspirators here ([link removed]
How badly did left-wing PACs outspend right-wing PACs in Pennsylvania? ([link removed]
Data from the Pennsylvania Secretary of the Commonwealth indicate that liberal PACs spent over $7.5 million helping Democrats and opposing Republicans in the 2020 race for control of the legislature and attorney general's office. By contrast, conservative PACs spent only $2.3 million. Hayden Ludwig and Kevin Mooney crunch the numbers behind this better than three-to-one left-wing advantage here ([link removed]
Sen. Whitehouse tells a whopper about the Ford Foundation? ([link removed]
Remember how Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) recently held a Senate Judiciary hearing to tout his favorite fairy tale, the claim that conservatives enjoy a monetary advantage in public policy debates? The heading was a debacle for the senator (you can refresh your memory ([link removed] and he rushed on to an obscure podcast in hopes of rebutting the hearing's witnesses, without the problem of having us witnesses there to talk back. The senator told some whoppers on the podcast, including the claim that the Ford Foundation has little "in the way of a political motive or purpose." (Whitehouse was trying to rebut my claim that Ford is more political, and much richer, than the conservative foundations he likes to attack.) CRC's Ken Braun shreds the Senator's falsehood here ([link removed]
What else is Hansjörg Wyss funding in the United States? ([link removed]
Swiss billionaire Hansjörg Wyss, whose long history of meddling in U.S. elections we've helped document, has funneled millions of dollars to Eric Holder's efforts to redraw electoral maps to benefit Democrats. The National Redistricting Action Fund (NRAF), Holder's gerrymandering nonprofit, received $3 million from the Wyss Foundation between 2018 and 2020. Hayden Ludwig follows the foreign "dark money" here ([link removed]

Featured VideoAmazon's Prime Indoctrination:
The Cost of
Instant Gratification ([link removed] has incredible power to censor dissenting voices. Worse still, Amazon exercises its control to silence conservative thought in books, documentaries, and even entire websites. Yet Amazon still sells actual white supremacist merchandise. Amazon is extremely powerful, and it doesn't play fair.Watch our 3-minute video exposing Amazon ([link removed]

InfluenceWatch Podcast 168The CDC and
Lockdown Collusion ([link removed] this episode ([link removed] hard lockdownists and their allies in the Biden administration repeat the mantra like a chanting monk: "Follow the science." This invocation invariably appears before the administration proposes some policy that continues the ongoing tyrannies supposedly intended to reduce the burden of COVID-19.But what happens when the science conflicts with the permanent lockdowns, as it does over school closures? Then political allies get involved, and the science need not be followed. That is exactly what happened when the CDC issued guidance that could lead to school reopenings, in conflict with the teachers unions' position: "lockdown today, lockdown tomorrah, lockdown for-evah."The New York Post and the center-right group Americans for Public Trust obtained emails under an open-records request showing the CDC and the American Federation of Teachers collaborated to issue unnecessarily restrictive reopening guidance, with at least two of the union’s proposals being parroted by the CDC nearly verbatim. Joining us to discuss this special-interest influence is Kerry McDonald of the Foundation for Economic Education.Subscribe to the podcast on iTunes, Spotify, or Stitcher.
