Lee Fang digs deep into Hillary's super delegate lobbyists

[Mufaddal]

He's dropping a lot of gems on Twitter right now (@lhfang)

Joanne Dowdell, VP of gov affairs (translation: lobbying) at News Corp, is a Clinton superdelegate (h/t @capndannn)

Bill Shaheen is a Hillary superdelegate. His law firm lobbies for one of the biggest providers of opioids in NH:


Lmao of course. Looking through the Congressional Black Caucus PAC, I see its funded in part by (white) private prison lobbyist Vic Fazio

I should note after many years of repping Corrections Corp, Fazio now has esteemed clients like Philip Morris

Tonio Burgos is a Hillary-supporting superdelegate. He is also a lobbyist for Pfizer, Verizon, American Airlines etc

Tune into his TL, I expect more to come!

1. Keep up the work Lee!

I was watching his Teets yesterday...it's all soooooo amazing how corrupt this Super Delegate thing is/could be.

3. Yeah, although Bernie is probably going to exercise strategic caution on this one

since he'll undoubtedly need a decent number of super delegates himself to carry the nomination. But if the SDs look like they are going to go against the wishes of the party base, it's possible we'll have quite a "riotous" convention on our hands.

Jill Alper, a "Hillblazer" fundraising for Hillary, is a superdelegate. Her firm was hired by health insurers to undermine Obamacare in 09.
