Stop Hillary PAC is Another Dan Backer Scam PAC (And American Action News is a Sham Newsletter)

Recently I received a solicitation email from a “Stop Hillary PAC.” Well guess what? It’s another Dan Backer scam PAC.

Like “Conservative Action Fund” or “Patriots for Economic Freedom” or any of a number of scam PACs run by Backer and his associates Tyler Whitney and Michael Gruccio, they’re happy to take money from gullible conservatives, but almost none of that money ever ends up supporting actual candidates. Instead it gets channeled into the pockets of a small number of consultants.

Among the consultants getting the lions share of Stop Hillary PAC disbursements (warning: big PDF):

  • DB Capitol Strategies (owned and operated by Dan Backer)
  • American Action News, which has recently started spamming me with pro-Donald Trump email, and which, surprise surprise, has the exact same address as DB Capitol Strategies (203 S. Union St., Suite 300 Alexandria, VA 22314)!
  • Campaign Solutions of Alexandria, Virginia
  • Strategic Fundraising, which may be defunct
  • A Ted Harvey of Highlands Ranch, Colorado, which I assume is this Colorado State Representative.
  • For the record, here are the other groups that show up for that same 203 S. Union St., Suite 300 Alexandria, VA 22314 address:

  • American Defense News
  • Conservative America Now
  • Constitutional Rights PAC
  • EndJeb2016.com
  • innovationPAC
  • Special Operations Speaks
  • Stand With Rand
  • Stark360 PAC
  • The Tea Party Leadership Fund
  • ZP Action PAC (“ZP Action is in no way affiliated with Zeta Psi Fraternity of N.A. or the Zeta Psi Educational Foundation”)
  • It looks like I may a little late to this party: Someone outed Stop Hillary PAC as a Dan Backer scam last year. But boy does his weedy garden of fake PACs and sham news sources continue to grow like Topsy…

      Now where does CVA – Concerned Veterans for America and Americans for Prosperity come in as they lied to veterans in last election . got veterans to volunteer in some bullshit get out the vote scam when they had volunteers calling and meeting vets and their families to vet for Senator Tommey and republicans in Pennsylvania and all republican candidates while lying on their Facebook page hey are non partisan and dont let any veterans have membership or any say or any vote All state directors of CVA aka americans for prosperity are Koch brothers stooges for the republican party with all of its officers embers of the republican party or the sister of congressmen republicans row tate republican legislators, etc and all have degrees in political science and host troy not health care They and President Trump sold veterans out as o private care and lied that a vet would be the new VA secretary from outside the VA just like Trumps donations were bogus as well. CVA aka americans for prosperity , SOS should all go to jail; for lying to their veteran brothers who they really are and stealing the rank and file power of us veterans Its nothing more then a nazi facist organization controlling policy and their own self employees organizations–

      What you can do -get laws to protect us vetoes and the american public from their lies and fraud they are non partisan hiding as “veterans” or others . Rport them for illegal lobbying in your state and federally as many are doing such as lobbying organizations and individuals being paid big salaries and not registered as lobby sots with their buddies the former repubclain congressmen and state reps they are in bed with
