On the surface this is a damning stat. Would like to know how many donated to Repubs though.

Her tweet just said that 75% gave to dems. They could have also all given to Republicans as well for all we know based on the tweet.

I'd like the names of the companies so I can boycott them. And if any are in my portfolio, vote against all incumbents directors at the next election.

Even though he’s probably wanting the number of companies, your answer looks right to me, so have an upvote for being a smart arse.

True, but she's being misleading AF if that's the case. She's certainly implying that they donated to Dems but not to Repubs.

I agree and I would assume that’s not the case but it would be good to know.

Using open-source Chinese-language documents, satellite imagery, academic research, and on-the-ground reporting, ASPI linked 82 brands with forced labor operations among 27 factories across nine Chinese provinces. A Federalist analysis drawing on financial disclosure reports published in OpenSecrets found at least 44 of the 80 companies named made U.S. campaign contributions in last year’s election cycle. A vast majority went to Democrats, who raked in three-quarters of all federal donations from companies credibly accused of harnessing Chinese slave labor, while less than 12 percent flowed to Republicans. Of the nearly $40 million that went to congressional candidates between the two major parties, Democrats took home more than 85 percent, as opposed to Republicans, who received less than 15.

quote:

Meanwhile, 39 out of the 42 companies that made donations gave more than half to Democrats, with nearly a dozen skyrocketing contributions in last fall’s contest compared to previous cycles. Apple and Nike, for example, which deployed high-powered Washington lobbyists to fight the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act barring importing products from Chinese slave labor, each spiked their donations to Democrats by more than 400 percent in a year Republicans embraced a tough stance on China.

quote:

The three companies that gave a majority of their campaign contributions to Republicans meanwhile — Carter’s Inc., Haier, and BMW — Republicans only marginally benefitted. BMW’s donations were near-evenly split, with 50.3 percent of donations going to the GOP and 49.7 percent in Democrat coffers. Haier spent nearly $57,000 on Republicans and nearly $40,000 on Democrats. Carter’s Inc. gave less than $20,000 in federal contributions total.

They're probably talking about dollars, so 75% of donated dollars went to Democrats.

This would be in line with what I would have guessed. Think about it, Big Tech, Big Banks, Big Pharma, and many manufacturing and industrial companies based in the US have a significant presence in China.....that doesn't happen without a shite load of complicit congress critters. I've said for over 20 years the US was sold out beginning in earnest with the Clinton administration and accelerated into the new millennium......yeah, we're officially fricked my fellow Americans.

If you ever had any idea of turning this shite show around with China and with the Marxist Movement you would have to begin with a near 100% purge of the federal government and it's related agencies.
