If Democrats can do-opt weak Republicans like Bush or McConnell or Romney, they have effectively made followers of the establishment also ineffective.  Democrats vote for policies so they will vote for a turnip if there is a D next to it. Republicans vote for people and ideologies so they expect more from their candidates.

Establishment Republicans will vote Democrat on issues where they are given lots of monies to break a Republican majority when necessary. That has been happening for at least the past 15 ~ 20 years.

FWIW

RINOs always vote Democrat.

Establishment Republicans vote Democrat for the money.

At present, we have at least 12 ~ 15 RINO or Establishment Republicans in our Congress.

FWIW

They don’t always vote Democrat but they do sometimes when the result hinges on their participation on a controversial issue.

It could be blackmail. We don’t know why they go against their parties and their voters.

Whether it's blackmail or receiving monies, they need to be removed from the Republican party because they just sabotage votes that would have otherwise gone to the Republicans.

Here is a list of House Republicans who need to be removed:

Boozman, John [R-AR]
Capito, Shelley [R-WV]
Collins, Susan [R-ME]
Cramer, Kevin [R-ND]
Crapo, Michael “Mike” [R-ID]
Fischer, Deb [R-NE]
Graham, Lindsey [R-SC]
Grassley, Charles “Chuck” [R-IA]
Moran, Jerry [R-KS]
Romney, Mitt [R-UT]
Sullivan, Dan [R-AK]
Thune, John [R-SD]
Tillis, Thom [R-NC]

Democrats Are Taking in Multi-Millions from Foreigners and No One Seems to Care

By Joe Hoft
Apr. 8, 2023 12:00 pm

This past week alone, there were multiple articles of top Democrats taking multi-millions from foreigners in gifts and contributions.  This is supposed to be against the law for obvious reasons but no one seems to care. 
 
Earlier this week Breitbart reported that Leonardo DiCaprio testified under oath in an Obama campaign money-laundering trial.  DeCaprio told the court that he was surprised by the amount of money he saw being donated to the Obama campaign.
 
Actor Leonardo DiCaprio appeared in Washington Monday to testify in the trial of Fugees rapper Prakazrel “Pras” Michel who is accused of illegally funneling money from fugitive Malaysian financier Jho Taek Low to the Barack Obama campaign through straw donors.
 
Michael, a founding member of the 1990s hip-hop group the Fugees, is accused of illegally funneling foreign donations to Obama’s 2012 campaign for president, that was sourced from a Malaysian financier. It is illegal for foreigners to donate money to U.S. political campaigns.
 
DiCaprio, 48, testified that he was surprised by the amount of money he saw being donated to the Obama campaign.
 
“It was a significant sum — something to the tune of $20-30 million,” DiCaprio said on the stand, according to the New York Post. “I said, ‘Wow that’s a lot of money!’”
 
The Hollywood star was called to testify because he had been a close U.S. associate of Low, having taken his donations for charities as well as financing for his award winning 2013 film, The Wolf of Wall Street.
 
Low was well-known among Hollywood A-Listers for throwing lavish parties, inviting top executives and actors on expensive vacations, doling out flights on his private jet, and attending and donating at numerous charity events. But he is now accused of embezzling his millions and is on the run.
 
Obama was famous for disregarding the law and doing whatever he wanted.  The leftwing media never called him out for this.  This attitude and practice is the current modus operandi in the US government today.
 
Breitbart also reported this week on the Democrat’s new George Soros: Swiss billionaire Hansjörg Wyss.  This guy is donating huge sums to Democrat causes that are destroying the country.
 
Billionaire Hansjörg Wyss, a Swiss national who lives in Wyoming, has become a “Democrat-aligned mega-donor,” according to the Associated Press (AP), thanks to his funneling hundreds of millions of dollars to left-wing groups.
 
“Newly available tax documents show that his giving through the Berger Action Fund, which describes itself as advocating for ‘solutions to some of our world’s biggest problems,’ swelled in 2021 to $72 million, cementing Wyss’ status as a Democratic-aligned megadonor,” the AP reports.
 
Wyss, who built his fortune creating the medical device company Synthes USA, which was sold in 2012 to Johnson & Johnson for $20 billion, has routed nearly $340 million through the Berger Action Fund to left-wing organizations like Sixteen Thirty Fund and the New Venture Fund since 2016.
 
Both groups have worked to build support for President Joe Biden’s agenda.
 
Specifically, Sixteen Thirty Fund is a left-wing lobbying organization that promotes “equity and racial justice” as well as universal healthcare and climate change legislation. The Sixteen Thirty Fund also shifts money to left-wing political organizations like the scandal-plagued Lincoln Project and the pro-Biden group Unite the Country.
 
As Politico reported in 2021, the group spent $410 million in the 2020 presidential election to unseat then-President Donald Trump and win Democrats a Senate majority with ad campaigns and a huge get-out-the-vote effort. Since 2016, Wyss has donated $208 million to the Sixteen Thirty Fund.
 
TGP wrote about Wyss in 2021 noting that despite his huge amounts of donations to the Democrats, there is no evidence that he is a US citizen.
 
In 2020, three individuals with foreign roots financed the Democrats.  Wyss and George Soros were two of the three with the third being Pierre Omidyar.
 
These men have issues even with their ci

Graham and Grassley are the most shocking because I expected better of them.
