    Do you think the Army is lobbying too?

    You don't understand how political funding works if you think those are donations from 'Disney'.

    Why do you think they have to legally be recorded?

    I love Fox news so much it's basically where 100% of my knowledge comes from.

    That's nothing. I was born and raised on Fox News. It was literally my bread and butter.

    All donations are recorded no matter who you work for or what you do. You think these conglomerates don't have shells to set up if they want to donate money discretely? Lol. Someone take the wool off this guy's eyes, he's been had.

    what you dont see is that people who contributed in the name of disney/army are also people who are in charge of these 2 organizations.

    if more money flows to party x from org y, this indicates org y is being run by people who are pro party x and their agendas because they're the majority in that organization.

    because organizations can not contribute.

    Because they are employees...

    If you work for Walmart as a cashier and you donate $5 do a politician, it shows up as an individual contribution of a Walmart associate. That's all it is.

    I was actually looking for an example and struck on the first one.

    Check FOX NEWS.

    $50 to the DNC (specifically for Merkley, Jeff) and $5 to Tulsi Gabbard. None to ANYONE else. They didn't even do their corporate max donation, it is literally two individual donations.

    It isn't representative at all of what the company thinks as an entity, just its employees. Most of them are liberal leaning? Yeah no fucking shit. Most of America is liberal leaning and millenials/Gen X donate more than other generations despite having less income.
