US Government Gives $82.7 Million to Liberal Tides Organizations

For all the fuss the left makes about “getting money out of politics,” their actions tell a vastly different story. When conservative donors make or facilitate anonymous donations, liberals cry “dark money” and bemoan the supposed lack of accountability.
