    Interdasting:

    When Crooks was 17 he made a $15 donation to ActBlue, a political action committee that raises money for left-leaning and Democratic politicians, according to a 2021 Federal Election Commission filing. The donation was earmarked for the Progressive Turnout Project, a national group that rallies Democrats to vote.

    Apparently was also part of a BlackRock ad.

      To the best of my knowledge, the donation has been debunked as a 69 year old guy with the same name from the same area of swpa.

        yeah this was information that was just pouring in from all over the place. With that comes speculations and theories.

          Maybe don’t speculate publicly on information that’s barely been confirmed and could easily be turned into a conspiracy theory?

          This is how conspiracy theories start, with “just asking questions” at least wait until a single investigation is over before becoming a truther please.
