from when I made the comment
here is what was removed
H.L. Hunt was the oil tycoon, not Leah, one of his many grandchildren
HL. Hunt had FIFTEEN children
around 40 grandchildren
Leah's mum, Helen LaKelly Hunt (the 14th of HL Hunt's 15 children) and is also an activist/philanthropist, nothing to do with the petrol industry. It was some of the oldest sons, plus Ray Lee of HL Hunt who took over the family oil business . That is where most of the wealth is.
H.L. Hunt had three families, and two of them were a secret, at least for a while. Over one eight-year period in the late twenties and early thirties, he had seven children by two wives, none of whom knew of the others’ existence. As if that weren’t enough, he later had a third secret family.
Leah's brother Hunter Hunt-Hendrix is the transgender lead singer of the death metal band Liturgy, so following your logic, he is an oil tycoon as well, lololol
Leah Hunt-Hendrix
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leah_Hunt-Hendrix
Leah Hunt-Hendrix is an activist, political theorist, and movement builder, who writes and speaks about the new economy, solidarity, and funding progressive social movements.[1] Hunt-Hendrix has a PhD in Religion, Ethics, and Politics from Princeton University. She was involved in the Occupy Wall Street movement and she has co-founded three organizations: Solidaire Network, the Emergent Fund and Way to Win
snip
Other Activism
Immediately after the 2016 election, Hunt-Hendrix co-founded the Emergent Fund, a partnership between Solidaire Network, Women Donors Network, Threshold Foundation, and the Democracy Alliance. The Fund is governed by an Advisory Council made up of leaders who represent communities who the Fund is designed to serve. As a member of the Advisory Council,[8] Hunt-Hendrix assists others in moving quick resources with no strings attached to underserved communities—including immigrants, women, Muslim and Arab-American communities, Black people, LGBTQ communities, and all people of color.
In 2018, Hunt-Hendrix co-founded Way to Win. Way to Win is a resource and strategy hub that seeks a new approach to progressive political spending and elections, advances transformative policy, and builds lasting power. The network supports organizations and candidates that envision a more just future and that are accountable to low income communities and people of color.
Board Appointments and Memberships
Hunt-Hendrix is a member of Democracy Alliance and Women Moving Millions. She is an Associate Fellow of the Institute for Policy Studies. She is on the Board of Directors of the Solutions Project.
Past Appointments, Previous Roles & Activism
Hunt-Hendrix’s past appointments include: Board of Directors of the New Economy Coalition, The Worker’s Lab, Free Speech for People and EDGE Funders Alliance, and the Advisory Board of The Wildfire Project. She was the director of the New Economies Initiative at ThoughtWorks, and a home-care assistant at an intentional community called L’Arche.
Education
Leah completed her doctorate at Princeton University in Religion, Ethics and Politics in 2013, where she wrote on the concept of solidarity. Jeffrey Stout, Eric Gregory, and Cornel West were her Ph.D. advisors. She was a participant in the Occupy Wall Street movement, and a theorist of the nature of the movement. Hunt-Hendrix received a Bachelor's degree in Political Science and Governance from Duke University in 2005.
But I'm sure you knew that when replying.
Leah's father. Johnelle is not related, different Hunt family.
HL Hunt's fortune was dived up amongst dozens of people.

they have 6 children
https://www.psychologytoday.com/ca/blog/finding-love/201411/harville-hendrix-and-helen-hunt-insight-gems-singles
so even with a ridiculous 50 FOLD increase (over the listed net worth) in that nuclear family's wealth
and assuming that the 6 children get 1/6th each
that is around
83 million per child, a far cry from billionaire level
even if they were worth 3 billion (which is beyond ridiculous), that is only half a billion per child
and the parents are still living, so the wealth has not been transferred in toto
I will tell you what
I will make a deal with you
bookmark this
you definitively show me that Leah Hunt-Hendrix is a billionaire, I will delete my account
you do the same if you cannot prove this by January 1st, 2021
you will not be able to do so because she is not
she is not an oil tycoon, and she is not a billionaire
book it
and you have a golden opportunity
one I have never offered before to anyone
take me out, take me off the board
you know you want to
here is a snapshot of what I just offered
It is ridiculous that a since-pulled (edited out by the OP) article has somehow brought them into the line of fire over people's desire to roast JD. Especially as Leah Hunt-Hendrix was singularly pulled out by the dodgy author (he attacks Democrats in his other articles, many of which I exposed down thread, plus he has a Soros obsession (again shown down thread), when Hunt-Hendrix is but one of many involved.

Leaders of progressive donor fund launch new PAC focusing on down-ballot races
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/09/10/leaders-of-progressive-donor-fund-launch-new-pac-way-to-lead-.html
The leaders of a progressive donor fund are launching a political action committee aiming to help down-ballot candidates. The committee, called Way to Lead, is meant to act as a hybrid PAC that will contribute to candidates at state and federal levels.
The group’s affiliated state PACs are also slated to help. The overall effort will include spending on advertisements and voter outreach. It is being run by a co-founder of Way to Win, a fundraising hub dedicated to helping progressive candidates and organizations.
Way to Win has moved over $60 million to progressive Democratic causes so far in the 2020 election cycle.
The new PAC is being run by Jenifer Ancona, a co-founder of Way to Win. The committee plans to launch on Thursday with over $5 million that will be spent on targeting voters in key states, such as Arizona, Florida, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Texas and Georgia, Ancona said in an interview with CNBC. The first wave of endorsements is for Democratic candidates battling it out in federal and statewide races.
Some of the PAC’s early financial supporters include Liz Simons, a philanthropist and the daughter of Democratic donor James Simons; Susan Stowell Pritzker, a member of the wealthy Pritzker family that includes Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker and President Barack Obama’s former Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker; and philanthropist Faye Straus.

Our Theory of Change
We know the way to lose, and the way to win.
We’ve seen what happens when Democrats only communicate with a narrow number of voters in the narrowest number of states, rather than going as big as democracy demands. Old models of political engagement, driven by Beltway consultants who were far removed from those doing the work on the ground, led to a loss of connection with voters. That resulted in a loss of power across the states and in the U.S. Senate, and ultimately, in losing the White House in 2016. That year, we saw that repeating bad habits of the past becomes the way to lose.
But on election night in 2016, while the Beltway melted-down, local strategists were still celebrating wins—like passing minimum wage in Arizona and flipping Harris County, Texas, a county with more voters than the state of Nevada. Local leaders were already dreaming of the next big ideas that could build power in the Trump era—planning for a blue trifecta in Virginia, amending the Florida Constitution to restore voting rights to returned citizens, and plotting to take back the U.S. House. These local strategists, working from the ground up to build multiracial coalitions to back bold policy reforms via candidate campaigns and ballot initiatives, were showing us the way to win.
We know what winning looks like.
We know that elections are only a means to an end. Our community is funding more than just transactional, short-term wins—we are investing in building long-term power. So, we wanted to change the way we think about elections, and that meant having different ways of measuring progress. Instead of gauging success just by “winning” or “losing” the election, we wanted to measure how much might have been gained even if the election was lost, and how much was actually won based on the candidate and their willingness to push bold policy reform forward.
For this reason, Way to Win measures impact both by number of seats picked up and, just as important, our six Signals of Success. These signals provide qualitative metrics for our team to monitor and evaluate progress beyond election day. They let us know whether we’re on track to build long-term power as individual races are won and lost, and allow us to measure the extent to which our resources are building for 2020 and future gains. As Jessica Byrd, architect of The Electoral Justice Project of the Movement for Black Lives, has coined: power has three points—one: movement, two: elections, which together lead to three: better governance.

Can you link the page showing the donors and all the money each person donated?
You know for transparency sake, we don't want any dirty money going to a Democratic candidate.
PS IOKIYAJD
Guess I was wrong. Can't really find where the money come in, only out.
I imagine that it is commendable that an heiress to oil and gas billions did something purposeful with the education, status, and security that her fossil fuel-funded privilege purchased. Philanthropic heiresses are certainly more helpful than run-of-the-mill heiresses, but I'm not quite sure that it greenwashes the genesis of her vast wealth.
Of course I edited. The distinction between a tycoon and an heiress was becoming a "Quick, look over there!" device and distraction: it's the FEC filings that should be the focus because they provide evidence that the Justice Democrats superpac accepts dark money.
The fact remains that it is a fossil fuel heiress, born into of vast dynastic wealth, whose enterprise is a source of the Justice Democrats superpac's dark money assets.
More importantly, Justice Democrats has a superpac that accepts dark money and (according to Open Secrets.org based on FEC filings) uses some of that cash against Democrats. And now Justice Democrats is making demands of President-elect Joe Biden.

16. The Hunt family
Net worth: $13.7 billion
Source of wealth: Hunt Oil Company
H.L. Hunt laid the foundation for his family's fortune with Hunt Oil Company. His many heirs (he had 14 children) command several fortunes, from Hunt Oil and Petro-Hunt to Rosewood Hotels & Resorts. His children spend their billions on real estate, like the 6-million-square-foot underground business park SubTropolis, and sports teams — they own the Kansas City Chiefs and have a minority stake in the Chicago Bulls.

The Republican Party is already considered a dangerous "post-democracy" RW authoritarian party by experts. Nearly half of America's mainstream that held the line against extremism has already fallen to it.
There's no chance these LW extremists could win against the far more powerful and advanced RW takeover well underway, but no one can know how many of them realize that as they attack democracy's embattled bulwark -- the Democratic Party -- from the left. Not that it would change anything.
The stupidity and delusions of those who require constant dishonesty to make reality fit their notions are all to real, of course. These aren't nice people, but they don't know it any more than their RW allies in battle. They're all righteous as hellfire.
Justice Democrats superpac saves up all its money earmarked for "attacks" to spend on Democrats. And now they're making demands of Joe Biden.
JD only had a 50% success rate in advancing their challengers, so many of the attacks paid for by their superpac were repurposed by Republicans who used them against Democrats in the general election.
As for their 50% success rate, why do they think that Joe Biden should listen to people who lose elections as if they are experts in winning elections?
Justice Democrats superpac (funded by dark money) helped to create and spread narratives used in Republican attack ads against incumbent Democrats who won their primaries, but wound up not winning re-election.
Ask Max Rose about it.
a challenger who was doing it as well?
Why do politicians who attack others for taking superpac money endorse challengers who do?
Isn't that what's called a double standard?
from corporate sources and spend it against Democrats.
I live in NY, so I did follow the Engel race closely. What's disingenuous is accepting support from dark money/corporate-funded superpacs while attacking your opponent for doing the same.
https://riverdalepress.com/stories/biaggi-gop-stay-out-democratic-primaries-engel-race,72036
There might be legitimate debate on whether states like New York should keep its primaries closed, especially in areas where one party dominates others. But one state lawmaker is crying foul for a different reason: Republicans spending money, choosing sides in Democratic primaries. "We need to free the community from Republican influence," state Sen. Alessandra Biaggi told The Riverdale Press. "Literally, as we speak, they are sending money. Why would Republicans send a Democratic congressmember $100,000?"
Biaggi is referring to a report by Ryan Grim and Akela Lacy at The Intercept, an online publication backed by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar, surmising money from a reported conservative super-PAC called Americans for Tomorrow's Future has transferred $100,000 to another super-PAC called the Democratic Majority for Israel. Although that particular PAC is known to have more Democratic leanings, it's spent some $600,000 on digital and television advertising promoting U.S. Rep. Eliot Engel and attacking his front-running primary challenger, Jamaal Bowman. The PAC, according to Grim and Lacy, has not spent money on any other campaign since receiving the boost from Tomorrow's Future on May 27.
"We have seen reports that link independent political action committee expenditures to our campaign," an Engel campaign spokesman told The Riverdale Press in a statement. "To be clear, as required by federal law, the Engel campaign has no control, contact, or coordination with these committees. We would ask the same of our opponents, and we trust that election law is being adhered to in all instances."
Biaggi originally endorsed Engel for re-election to what would be a 17th term in Congress, but reversed her decision June 5, endorsing Bowman instead. The original endorsement was part of a cross deal among Biaggi, Engel and Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz as a way to solidify the northwest Bronx's major elected leaders. Biaggi withdrew from the deal not long after Engel was caught on a hot mic trying to push Bronx borough president Ruben Diaz Jr., for a chance to speak at an impromptu news conference on Fordham Road after riots there, reportedly telling Diaz that at least in terms of pushing to speak, "if I didn't have a primary, I wouldn't care."

Why Is GOP Money Going to Democratic Congressman Eliot Engel?
On foreign policy, the 16-term incumbent aligns with the Republicans.
https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/why-is-gop-money-going-to-democratic-congressman-eliot-engel/
Today’s primary election in New York’s 16th congressional district sees insurgent candidate Jamaal Bowman challenge 16-term incumbent Representative Eliot Engel. While they’re both Democrats, a review of Engel’s foreign policy record shows just how much he has in common with the Republican Party. Last week, The Intercept reported that a Republican-aligned super PAC funnelled $100,000 to another super PAC, Democratic Majority for Israel, which itself has spent more than $600,000 attacking Bowman and promoting Engel. Engel and the GOP have repeatedly worked together to further an interventionist, pro-Israel foreign policy.
In 2010, Engel held a press conference with now–Vice President Mike Pence, in which they opposed any UN investigation into the Israeli government’s raid on a flotilla operated by activists seeking to provide humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip. Israeli commandos killed nine people, whom Engel dismissed as “violent protesters.” Republican Representatives Peter King, Eric Cantor, and Ted Poe joined the press conference to voice their support. Engel’s enthusiasm for Israel is not something he hides. A review of Engel’s otherwise unremarkable financial disclosure in 2019 shows that he possesses as much as $15,000 in Israeli government bonds. When President Donald Trump recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital—a move that prominent Democrats like Senators Dianne Feinstein and Dick Durbin criticized as dangerous and likely to foment unrest—Engel voiced his support.
But it’s not just Israel policy on which Engel sides with Republicans. In 2019, Engel expressed “outrage” at the Venezuelan government for blocking humanitarian aid—the same thing he defended when the Israeli government did it. “We are outraged that Nicolas Maduro continues to block the entry of food and medical supplies into Venezuela,” Engel said in testimony before the foreign affairs committee. “We urge Maduro to immediately allow humanitarian aid to reach the Venezuelan people.” Engel also supported the Trump administration’s decision to recognize Venezuelan opposition figure Juan Guaidó as president of Venezuela, even though Guaidó was never elected. (The UN has declined to recognize Guaidó.)
Engel was also a proponent of the Iraq War, saying on the House floor in October 2002, “It would be a monumental mistake not to support” it. When the US military found no chemical or biological weapons, Engel echoed a Bush administration talking point, arguing that it “wouldn’t surprise me if those weapons of mass destruction that we cannot find in Iraq wound up and are today in Syria.”

Engel’s Top Donor is an AIPAC-Tied Group That Backs Powerful GOP Politicians
https://readsludge.com/2020/06/22/engels-top-donor-is-an-aipac-tied-group-that-backs-powerful-gop-politicians/
In his closely watched primary race against middle school principal Jamaal Bowman, Rep. Eliot Engel’s (D-N.Y.) top donor is an organization that has endorsed and fundraised for some of the most powerful Republicans in Congress who work to block progressive policies that Engel says he supports.
The Pro-Israel America PAC, which serves as a conduit for individual donors and is not subject to the standard contribution limit for multicandidate PACs of $5,000 per election, has given Engel at least $127,981 since January 1, 2019, according to Federal Election Commision records reviewed by Sludge. No entity has ever given Engel anywhere near that amount to any of his re-election campaigns over the course of his 31 year career.
Engel has received more money from Pro-Israel America PAC this cycle than all but one other candidate—Antone Meltion-Meaux, who is running a primary camapign against Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.).

GOP MONEY FLOWING TO SUPER PAC BACKING REP. ELIOT ENGEL, DOCUMENTS SHOW
Nearly $1 million in dark money has boosted Engel, who is facing a serious challenge from Jamaal Bowman, in the past few weeks.
https://theintercept.com/2020/06/15/gop-republican-super-pac-eliot-engel-jamaal-bowman/
A REPUBLICAN SUPER PAC is funding an outside effort to help reelect Democratic Rep. Eliot Engel, locked in a tight primary against insurgent Jamaal Bowman.
The super PAC is called Americans for Tomorrow’s Future, following in the proud tradition of nonsensically named political action committees. The connections to the GOP are apparent enough that the Center for Responsive Politics lists it as “Republican/Conservative.” The PAC’s treasurer, David Satterfield, is a former aide to one-time Republican Senate Leader Bill Frist. Satterfield works now at Huckaby Davis Lisker, a prominent firm that does election compliance and accounting work for Republican campaigns. This cycle, the firm is handling the accounts for the National Republican Senatorial Committee, National Republican Congressional Committee, and the campaign of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, among dozens of other GOP operations.
The PAC, presumably due to its visible Republican ties, is not spending directly in Engel’s New York primary. Instead, it funneled $100,000 to another super PAC, called Democratic Majority for Israel, on May 27. DMFI, a controversial operation inside the Democratic coalition, spent heavily against Sen. Bernie Sanders in the Democratic presidential primary, with help from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, AIPAC, The Intercept reported in February.
Since cashing the Americans for Tomorrow’s Future check, DMFI has spent more than $600,000 boosting Engel and hitting Bowman on TV, and with digital ads, mailers, and paid phone banking. DMFI has not spent money on any other race since taking money from the GOP operation.

Americans for Tomorrow's Future (the first one talked about) also ended up directly spending almost 2.5 million USD against Omar in MN.

I only mention Max Rose as an example of a loss at least partially attributable to the law of unintended consequences. He's been attacked by people using both right wing and Justice Democrats-style talking points in the very same. atgument
Odd how the Justice Democrats' superpac didn't spend a penny against Republicans in 2020.
Justice Democrats superpac accepts dark money, spends some of it against Democrats, and spends none it against Republicans.
Justice Democrats feel entitled to a superpac, entitled to accept dark money, entitled to spend some of it attacking Democrats, entitled to sit on their hands when it comes to taking on Republicans, and entitled to make demands of an incoming Democratic administration.
These are facts, not claims. No goal posts were moved because none were ever proffered. Documentation of the superpac, the dark money source, the record of how the superpac spent the dark money, and the petition-based demand is evidence for the accuracy of the information presented.
Anyone who chooses to spend their time trying spin away facts with an "it's OK when they do it because..." apologia is free to do so.
pointed out to you before, and not just by me
your OP was flawed from the beginning, and you editing it has not changed that fact
you have been caught making multiple errors, using a dodgy source (now edited out) who attacks Democrats (and not just the articles I posted above), and multiple mis-framings
JD is not a favourite of mine, but they also ran general election adverts for Biden (and attacking Trump) as I already showed

Leading progressive group to launch pro-Biden ads in Arizona, Pennsylvania
https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/521201-leading-progressive-group-to-launch-pro-biden-ads-in-arizona-pennsylvania
The progressive group Justice Democrats, a vocal backer of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in this year's presidential primaries, is launching an advertising blitz for Democratic nominee Joe Biden in key battleground states.
The six-figure ad buy is the group’s first expenditure in support of the former vice president in the general election. The ad is set to run in Pennsylvania and Arizona, two purple states that President Trump won in 2016 but where polling shows Biden leading.
The group’s digital ad appeals directly to voters on the Democratic Party’s left flank who are unenthusiastic about Biden. It features a mother describing the hardships she has faced during the coronavirus pandemic and excoriates the Trump administration for its handling of the virus.

Now here are more (and germane to this colloquy) articles by the same author, an author was who used as cudgel in your OP before being self-deleted via an ex post facto edit
that author, who was thought useful when he was having a go at someone you dislike intently was fine, but here he is saying something that I think you will take umbrage with
it is so very situational and selective to try and fob it off when it can be weaponised against a favourite whipping boy, but ignore the many other stances he takes
If I am wrong and you DO agree with the following articles, then I retract my guess that you would take umbrage with them

you also tried to tie JD to attacks on Max Rose, when Rose ran unopposed and had NO primary, and the controversy with Rose had nothing to do with JD, as I showed

so all in all, not buying what you are selling, sorry (other than I do wish JD would go away, but I am not going to resort to faulty framings and inferences and goalpost sliding to try and make a case for that)
is desperate at best.
Folks might be better off trying "I know you are, but what am I" next time.
There's gonna be a revolution! in D +25 districts , anyway which are the only places they've managed to win. I hate dark money. All candidate's money sources should be transparent.
He mentioned Soros in the article you posted, and also here (plus takes shots at Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton):
as does the fact that they have a superpac.
a little window opens up and tells you what the picture means.
For example, when you right click on this one, you'll discover that it means "hi".
TY lapucelle!
