National Republican Senatorial Committee funds declined to just $28.4 million by the end of June. (Photo: Manuel Augusto Moreno via Getty Images) Anumber of Republican strategists and consultants are growing increasingly dismayed about millions of dollars vanishing at the National Republican Senatorial Committee — just when the funds are needed most, The Washington Post reported Friday.

Cash at the national campaign fund is dwindling as candidates head into the final stretch of Senate races across the U.S.

Although the Huffington Post and MSN are generally left-wing rags that one should not believe, this article points out a serious problem that the National Republican Senatorial Committee has. I've contributed to them several times this last year and, most unfortunately, the contribution has gone through a despicable outfit called "WINRED" which has a thoroughly nasty habit of automatically signing contributors up for monthly contributions without giving proper warning and another of upping the amount of contributions well above what someone signs in to contribute. Comments on WINRED's website consistently denounce it is a scam. I have reached the point, and I've contributed thousands of dollars to Republican causes, of not wanting to contribute anything through WINRED, because it looks like it's run by a bunch of grifters. I would suggest that much of the problem the NRSC is now having acquiring badly needed small contributions is with the atrocious conduct of WINRED, which seems to be the primary conduit used to collect money for Republican campaigns.

It’s a real head scratcher

[Paladin2]

Not many support Ditch.

A bunch of it was sent to Alaska to protect Murkowski.

[rarestia]

Repeal the 17th, and we won’t have to worry about the senate anymore.

[boycott]

Could be that we don’t like where Mitch is sending the money. Mitch decides where the Senate GOP PAC money goes.

And, I’ll ad, that most republicans are working class people. We cannot compete with the money Silicon Valley billionaires will drop on candidates. They are able to spend so much and they will buy up once good organization like the Chamber of Commerce to further their agenda.

The old bs of the republicans are the party of the rich is just that ... BS.

The money was spent trying to defeat Trump candidates.

I stopped supporting the GOP when they refused to support Trump after the stolen 2020 election. I even switched to Independent.

That doesn't stop the endless patronizing texts and emails from the GOP that flood my inboxes, such as "Donald Trump is very disappointed in you...". Of course, Trump has no involvement in these obnoxious pleas for my donations.

No matter how many times I 'unsubscribe' they just keep coming.

No kidding.

A Protect the RINOs and Dems slu$h fund, coordinated by Ditch McConnell, most likely.

Career Politicians gotta have their fringe benefits, ya know.

🤬

And that money will go to Lizard’s third party run in 2024.

[Hattie]

Radio this week said Republican political calls to republicans have been labeled spam and blocked by major phone carriers. I have not had one Republican call to ask for money or votes - have you folks? Democrat calls are going through.

[Jane Long]

Haven’t donated to these pasty faced RINOs in over a decade.....ever since they bent over to kiss 0blama’s backside.

[Jane Long]

Has she already announced a Senate run??

[lewislynn]

Ignorance is bliss.

The 17th will be repealed when the 16th is repealed and The Fairtax is enacted along with other pie in the sky lunacy like COS...IOW, never.

WinRed did this to me I donated $100.00 dollars to Trump the bastards started taking $100.00 a WEEK, I had to cancel my card after getting NO satisfaction from WinRed in stopping the payments!! I refuse to donate to ANYTHING that goes though WinRed!! I wanted to send a donation to Brandon Stratka after everything he went through with the FBI, DOJ his donations went through WinRed so I did not make the donation!! I contacted Brandon received a very nice email in return stating that they had NO other options for donations because all other platforms refuse to do business with them!! I mailed them a check instead!!
WinRed are SCUM!!

[goodnesswins]

GEE....Wonder WHY that is...you morons. I recently donated to Skarlatos in Oregon...but I made a point of writing a check to HIS campaign...not to WINRED.

[TheWriterTX]

This is true. When the RNC called it came over my phone as “potential spam.”

Irrelevant to me now. I will only donate to Trump.

[Jane Long]

Indeed!

And, Kari Lake...and, a handful of others....DIRECTLY...and, not through WinRedRipOff.

Rick Scott runs the NRSC.

There’s speculation that Mitch is pushing this story to shiv him.
