Buttigieg also has a "dark money-supported organization" supporting his presidential campaign: Vote Vets Action Fund (a 501(c)(4) that can spend unlimited money and is not required to disclose its donors). Vote Vets, which also has a super PAC, has spent $100m+ on Dems since '06

This week, Warren's campaign manager Roger Lau suggested top Buttigieg strategist Michael Halle was signaling their preferred messaging to Vote Vets, an outside entity with which the campaign is not allowed to coordinate. A Buttigieg spox said they have no comment on the claim.pic.twitter.com/8fYsrQBMfs

"If the largest progressive veterans group wants to help spread the word about Pete's service we welcome it," the Buttigieg spokesperson said. "Veterans have been central to propelling our movement."

Asked Sanders's campaign about Our Revolution again today. "We have been on record saying we don't want third-party outside support," top strategist Jeff Weaver says. Though they also have the support of the National Nurses United’s super PAC that spent $5m helping him in 2016.

Our Revolution has $500K in large donations. Calling it "massive" is a massive exaggeration.

The national Our Revolution (which raises and spends the money) is about a half dozen people right now - 2 or 3 of them who went to South Bend to demonstrate and otherwise show up to rally support for Medicare For All. The idea that it's a massive dark money group is delusional

for Sanders’ sake, I wish Our Revolution was as “massive” as Buttigieg seems to think it is

It's either delusional or deceptive. National Our Revolution (which raises and spends a little money) is about half dozen people right now - 2 or 3 of them who went to South Bend to demonstrate and otherwise show up to rally support for Medicare For All. They don't have $$ money.

Right now, they're doing a tour of the country, creating statewide Organizing Summits for the local all-volunteer groups (usually organized at a county, city or town level). The idea that they're doing much boosting Bernie's campaign (other than press releases) is pure fiction.
