…because it’s always interesting to follow the trail! Here is the short version of “The Shell Game”. (More to follow)
Did you or anyone you know donate money to the “Reagan Republicans”? If so, where did your money go? How many candidates did your money help and how much did they get?
We’re following the money and our full report will be out soon, but you may be interested to know that:
On their 2011 Post General Sunshine Report the “Reagan Republican Victory Fund –Municipal” (Jeff Ward, Treasurer, Jeff Tyler, Chairman) …shows “Contributions” $8,000. Of those funds guess how much went to candidates?
If you guessed $2275 you’d get the prize. Seven candidates got $375 each…WOW, we bet that made the difference! Also shown on that report is that $710 went to “The Strategery Group” owned by Jeff Ward, et al….
Where’s the rest of the money and where did it come from? Well, it came from the “Reagan Republican Victory Fund” (Jeff Tyler, Treasurer, Jeff Ward, Chairman)…as to the where it went, conspiring minds want to know! (Any thoughts Doo-ane? Aren’t you their lawyer?)
Now on to the big dough! On their 2011 Annual Sunshine Report, the “Reagan Republican Victory Fund” (Jeff Tyler, Treasurer, Jeff Ward, Chairman) showed $22,577 in “Contributions”. Of those funds guess how much went to candidates?
If you guessed $0…yes, that’s a big fat ZERO…you’d get the prize…the little prize, because the big prize goes to the real beneficiaries of the “Victory Fund”… the incredible…the amazing…wait for it…wait for it…
THE STRATEGERY GROUP, INC (Jeff Ward, et al)…who got a whopping $8,054.70!!! Woo Hoo! Way to go guys, what a score!!! You did a great job of getting that money to deserving Republican Candidates…NOT!
Note from our own Chester the Chuckleberry Jester:
“If I had been silly enough to give money to the guys pretending to be the Reagan Republicans, I’d be demanding a refund! I’d send my demand to Jeff Ward a/k/a “The Strategery Group”, which is the alter ego of the “Reagan Republican Victory Fund(s)” at 5180 E. Seltice Way #C, Post Falls, ID 83854.” (Chester is not a real person folks, but he has a good point!)
Hello, C’dA Press, are you awake?
