A Look at the Koch Brothers Dark-Money Network

Posted by samzenpus on from the pay-no-attention-to-the-men-behind-the-curtain dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The California attorney general and the state's top election watchdog named the 'Koch brothers network' of donors and dark-money nonprofits as the true source of $15 million in secret donations made last year to influence two bitterly fought ballot propositions in California. State officials unmasked the Kochs' network as part of a settlement deal that ends a nearly year-long investigation into the source of the secret donations that flowed in California last fall."

    At first glance of the title, I really thought it was news for nerds. But then I was disappointed when I saw that 'dark-money network' has nothing to do with 'dark net'. Yeah, just more political gunk articles that don't belong.
