David Hogg‘s reputation and fortune have been influenced by horror adjustment. He transformed surviving the agonizing school shootings in Parkland into a starring role as one of the media’s more unbearably annoying activists.  ,
But perhaps it should come as no surprise that the young gun control executive has positioned himself at the center of another communist business and is now attracting criticism for the political activity agency’s excessive spending.  ,
According to Breitbart News, the Leaders We Deserve PAC spent$ 1.4 million of the$ 3 million- plus it raked in last year on travel expenses, political consultants, and legal expenses. A large test is given to none other than Marc Elias, previous Clinton campaign general counsel and proponent of the Trump-Russian hoax, in the said expenses.  ,
Hogg’s “new effort” was apparently created to vote communist Gen Z applicants. According to the PAC’s Act Blue site:
In 2018, younger citizens shattered attendance records. In 2020, we helped energy Biden to win. And in 2022, we were crucial in fending off a Democrat red flood. Today we’re not just voting — we’re running for office, and winning. Leaders We Deserve is here to help us choose more promising, brave progressives to the chambers of Congress and the states.
As Breitbart studies, it appears the desire to choose “young, brave progressives” is second to underwriting Hogg’s vacation itinerary and fattening Elias ‘ budget. According to its filings with the Federal Election Commission, the PAC spent only$ 263, 000 on Generation Z andnbsp campaigns, which were” combined with donations to other Democrat Party committees and groups,” and instead spent more than$ 1.4 million on expenses for travel and entertainment, including hotel, flights, and meals.  ,
Hogg’s group paid out more than$ 83, 000 in legal fees to Elias Law Group, according to Breitbart. Known in social group as” the gardener” of Democrat crises, Elias served as a solicitor for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee. He tapped Fusion GPS, which compiled the sham report that Democrats falsely claimed were members of then-President Donald Trump’s campaign and Russian government agents.  ,
Of course, corporate media gushed over (attention ) Hogg’s new blue youth movement. And the limelight wanderer delivered in needful hatred for Republicans, especially Donald Trump ,
” For every year of Trump’s president, I think there was a novel section of a social activity that was born”, the 23- yr- old told NPR in August, “whether it was the Women’s March, March for Our Lives, the environmental movements, or the movement for Black Lives”.
Hogg claimed that his PAC primarily focuses on supporting prospects for state elected jobs as well as those under the age of 35 in the campaign for federal office. He wants to help design the next generation of Constitution- cutting, great government- defending morons.  ,
According to Hogg,” We’re trying to pick them and say, you know, we want to help you run for office, we’ll give you all the resources you need, we’ll help you generally mentor you and hold your hand to get there, which is kind of the distance that’s in the room straight now, for at least younger people at the state legislative level,”  ,
How’s that all turning out? According to Breitbart, Leaders We Deserve PAC in 2023 committed a fragment of its donations to just four candidates, including Rep. Maxwell Frost, D- Fla., who is already in Congress. Democrat Sylvia Swayne, a transgender Democrat, was reportedly given nearly$ 125, 000 in a failed bid to win the Alabama House. Swayne,” Alabama’s First Openly Trans Candidate”, hailed Teen Vogue, lost badly in the special election runoff.  ,
” The vast majority of the group’s money, the FEC filings from 2023 show, did not go to helping candidates at all — and much of it went to other political consultants at various firms, as well as to Hogg and Lata, with a lavish travel budget to boot”, Breitbart reported, referring to Kevin Lata, Frost’s campaign manager, who started the PAC with Hogg.  ,
In just the opening months of the group’s creation, the payroll included nearly$ 40, 000 for Hogg, with Lata taking in more than$ 50, 000, FEC filings show.  ,
According to Breitbart, most of the donors to Hogg’s trough “were small- dollar donors giving less than$ 250 a pop” . ,
As a Federalist colleague said,” People who send twits like this money deserve to be fleeced” . ,
The insufferable David Hogg is undoubtedly the type of leader the left deserves.
