"Lead Left has gone to great lengths to conceal its identity and backers. It listed its address as a mailbox at a Staples on 2241 North Monroe Street in Tallahassee, Florida.

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

This is still against the law, I believe. Pay-for-play $1M donation, administration flips their public position, comes out against Canada's free bridge.
Because despite McDonnell (2016) and worse, Snyder (2024), the Supreme Court still says intent & result is illegal (which we saw with bridge owner Maroun's donation).
