Eric Erickson Website "Resurgent" Paid By Pro-Cruz/Anti-Trump "Our Principles PAC"
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | 03-29-2016 | Sundance

Posted on 03/29/2016 10:46:37 PM PDT by BAW

Thanks to the candidacy of Donald Trump the financial intersection of money and political opinion, as guided by the monetary motives therein, has brought some amazing revelations to the surface.

These financial/media relationships have largely, and historically, remained hidden. They have damned sure never been publicly, clearly, and regularly stated so the consuming audience would know the presentation was fraught with financial conflict.

So it perhaps shouldn’t come as a surprise to find out that Eric Errickson’s media venture “The Resurgent“, is taking Super-PAC money from the (formerly Scott Walker advocates and financial backers) Ricketts family of Wisconsin who fund OUR PRINCIPLES PAC to the tune of $3,000,000 in February alone.

Apparently none. Most likely just readers and followers, akin to this site’s funding. But I’m sure a smart, cunning individual could sleuth out any ‘funny’ monies......

Look how disgusting the Cruzers are, spreading the lie that Sundance is “an anti-semite” in the Keywords. But note that they will not press the charge in public, under their names, because then they’d have to defend their lies.

The moderators know who put keywords on a thread. Ask them.

I wonder if PAC money is going to various news commentators to demonize Trump with their editorials? It would be a revealing look at the state of politics in America.

Does it ever offend you whenever Berry talks about his “dumb” callers he disagrees with he always makes fun of them in a hillbilly redneck southern accent.

If people would pay attention his redneck country club would go down the tubes. He makes fun of “rednecks”.

I agree. I was just pointing out he always does his “redneck” impression when making fun of people who aren’t as smart as he is. But I guess most people don’t know how they actually sound so they don’t realize he’s making fun of them.

Add broadcaster Jim Bohannon to that list.
He speaks of Trump in a very sneering mood.
A caller just brought up the Fields issue and he replied that by looking at the video it is clear that Trump’s campaign manager is a “thug.”

How asinine.

And Cruz bought off Thomas Sowell and Rush.

I think you’ve uncovered the conspiracy: everyone who doesn’t support Trump is bought off!

Genius.

If he’s a nobody then why is everybody here and the loons over at CTH spending so much time talking about him?

He sure is drawing a lot of attention for someone who is supposedly a “nobody”.

Since Treehouse did the article it would seem to me Erick the Idiot should be looking that up. My off hand guess would be is that they don’t have a XXXXX-hating super PAC with big bucks to piss away on Erick’s obsession.
