A “Republican” group that opposes President Donald Trump known as Republican Women for Progress is being completely funded by one male Democrat billionaire.

The organization, in its mission statement, claims to support Republican women.

“We believe that Republican women deserve to speak up, not stand aside. That we need to connect better, smarter. That being engaged in American politics is mission critical,” the group’s website claims.

However, the website also claims the group was formed from an earlier group, Republican Women for Hillary, which in turn was created to support Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in 2016.

Someone should inform these women that Clinton is not a Republican woman.

Members of Republican Women for Progress explained to Glamour how they felt when Clinton lost.

“On election night we felt a range of emotions: It went from disbelief to sadness to anger to a sense of urgency. It was rough,” the women said.

That’s strange. Republicans were celebrating that night (I mean, aside from Bill Kristol).

Considering the “Republican” group’s strikingly un-Republican history, it’s not a surprise to find out who is paying their bills.

The PAC’s October quarterly filing revealed that Republican Women for Progress is funded by Reid Hoffman, billionaire co-founder of LinkedIn and frequent donor to Democrats. Hoffman gave the group a generous $400,000.

Previous filings show Hoffman’s support for hard-line Democrats like Sen. Cory Booker, Sen. Sherrod Brown and Sen. Bob Casey, to name just a few.

Did Hoffman simply turn a new leaf and decide to support Republicans?

Of course not. The Republican Women for Progress is just another generic anti-Trump organization.

The women’s group responded Friday after the Washington Free Beacon published a story about the donor.

“In terms of the Reid Hoffman donation, even a male tech billionaire and major Democratic donor recognizes the important role women should play in the Republican party. We are pleased to have the support of donors across the ideological spectrum to ensure the voice of republican (sic) women is heard across the country,” the women said.

Or perhaps Hoffman realizes that the group is anti-Trump and his contribution could help destabilize the GOP. It’s either the case that they’re aware of his agenda or they are unwittingly being used as tools by a Democrat billionaire.

This “Republican” group is little more than another underhanded Democratic Party front.

Democratic Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said on Friday at a campaign event that the United States’ blueprint for beating global warming needs to be the same as the blueprint the U.S. used for defeating Nazi Germany in the 1940s.

“So we talk about existential threats, the last time we had a really major existential threat to this country was around World War II,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “And so we’ve been here before and we have a blueprint of doing this before.”

“None of these things are new ideas,” Ocasio-Cortez continued. “What we had was an existential threat in the context of a war. We had a direct existential threat with another nation, this time it was Nazi Germany, and axis, who explicitly made the United States as an enemy, as an enemy.”

“And what we did was that we chose to mobilize our entire economy and industrialized our entire economy and we put hundreds of thousands if not millions of people to work in defending our shores and defending this country,” she stated. “We have to do the same thing in order to get us to 100% renewable energy, and that’s just the truth of it.”

“It may seem like really big, it may seem really ambitious, it may seem really ‘radical’ as us [inaudible] like to say,” the congressional candidate continued. “But the fact of the matter is we are dealing with a radical truth and a radical reality, and the more we choose to ignore it the worse we are doing by our children, and our grandchildren, and frankly ourselves.”

As a woman it’s pretty difficult to look at the #BelieveWomen movement and not want to lend a certain amount of support to it. But this movement, like so many others that are hijacked by the left, is really just another load of liberal garbage.

It has done little more than open the door for histrionics and manufactured abuse claims by (mainly) women who want to help further an agenda orchestrated for the purposes of upending a conservative culture.

And sometimes someone comes along who has an uncanny knack for pointing out the obvious with very little effort. That person in the instance of the #BelieveWomen movement is James Woods.

Since his reinstatement to Twitter, Woods has been on fire with just such commentary about the leftist litter cluttering up our culture. On Friday, he excoriated the #BelieveWomen movement with the best example of why it’s nonsense:

This short video posted by Woods on his Twitter feed perfectly exemplifies the very thing that #BelieveWomen has become. And some of the followup to Woods’ post shows that he’s connected with a chunk of Americans who get that point.

And I love this replay perhaps most of all.

I’m sure Michael Avenatti will take this case

I think in this day and age where Americans are wise to liberal spin, the left is going to see a lot more of this kind of thing popping up on their radar. Soon I hope they will be too busy backtracking their lies from the past to be effective in doing much of anything else in regard to gaining political power.

The #BelieveWomen movement transcends issues. It’s not just about sexual assault and abuse. It’s clearly political, as we see from Twitter’s response to the left’s own Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who as recently Monday proved we couldn’t believe the Massachusetts Democrat’s claims of Native American ancestry.

Maybe the left will abandon the #BelieveWomen movement and promote the #BelieveDNA movement instead.

As the political landscape changes before the midterm elections, I look forward to more no-nonsense wisdom from the tweets of James Woods, and from those who follow him for that matter.

It’s heartwarming to see the dramatic shift in American thought and just how little tolerance we have for the irrationality of the left.
