Read the article and you will see that Cruz cannot cut Beck loose because his money bag donors are partners with Beck.
However, the event itself is being organized by a pro-Cruz group 'Keep the Promise 1' (KtP1), a Super-pac originally funded by billionaire hedge-funder Robert Mercer., KtP is also directly attached to David Barton.David Barton is Co-Chair for Glenn Beck"s Mercury One charity, and the assembly of interests provides an opportunity to explain how all of these entities connect.
Billionaire Robert Mercer originally funded KtP to promote candidate Ted Cruz.
According to recent reports, the extraordinarily wealthy influence agent, Robert Mercer, currently owes the IRS somewhere between $6 billion and $10 billion dollars. From a position of motive inquiry, if he can help purchase a White House victory for either candidate (Cruz or Fiorina), obviously the scales could be tipped in his favor.
Barton now appears to run "KtP1" in addition to being Co-Chair for Beck's Mercury One charity.
Even more intrigue and shysterism continues at the link.
