LOL, so it's just Cenk's campaign committee repurposed now he failed miserably to get elected.
Here's the FEC page. Cenk is pretty well despised among actual progressives, it's no wonder his choice to run his PAC is the queen of the grifters. I can't imagine much vetting went on before she was chosen.
Cenk's in for a rude awakening though. His new executive director is lazy as fuck. She'll get bored of this inside of six months and then work will grind to a halt. I'm looking forward to the Wu getting fired saga.
Apparently some people even more autistic than us follow Cenk's doings and discovered this a couple of weeks ago. There's a reddit.
Wu posted a job ad a week ago.
Leaving the hiring to Wu who has no idea what she's doing was a HUUUUGE mistake. There's people on TYT crew who know about how professional video is produced, they really should have been in the loop on this.
I'm not entirely clear on where the money for the initial staff is coming from. The committee has very little money as of July. I wonder if the bank of Frank has been tapped, or whether TYT is chipping in. It'll be interesting to see just how hands on Cenk is with this shit, or whether it'll be more or less a Wu solo endeavour.
I did like Wu's boast that between Cenk and herself they'd raised almost 2 million. Putting aside that that's a pathetic figure even if true, Wu only raised 200K and Cenk bagged 1.3 million. There was perhaps a little disparity. As unpopular as Cenk is, he does have a platform beyond sperging on twitter. Nobody likes Wu.
(Also to note the website is a pathetic squarespace template job. Not even as much effort went in to it as Wu scampaign website which was at least professionally designed. Wu's dusting off the old skills from her old Giant Spacekat days (RIP))
