The whole point of dark money is that it's anonymous.. in either case one of his staunchest defenders in congress is the #3 guy in the GOP who received millions of dollars of support from FTX on the record. Rep. Emmer also tried to prevent the SEC from investigating FTX so maybe everyone can stop pretending that it's exclusively a Democrat problem?

Wouldn't be called dark money if there were. Sure he's a lying sociopath, which is why it would make sense that he did donate to both sides.

His companies donated and the people working directly with him donated, afaik. Not even dark channels. Maybe he thought dark channels sounds cool.
