Like many Americans who hold retirement accounts, pension funds, or who invest in the American economy, my finances are largely held in index funds or mutual funds over which I have no control in management or decision-making. Sadly, most of these broad investments are as compromised as the American economy - massively degraded as it is by the fossil fuel, defense and finance industries. Over the years I have taken steps to divest from the worst of these holdings - transferring my checking and savings accounts from Bank of America largely to a credit union, and divesting from GE, Dupont and Merck stocks I had been given decades ago.

While I have explored “green” mutual funds, I found their investments in fracking and large scale biofuels not much better than the non-green funds. I have not yet found the mutual funds that represent my goals of advancing the cause of people, planet and peace. Admittedly I have not spent a lot of time researching elusive ethical investments. I prefer using my time fighting for social, economic and ecological transformation, and recycling capitalist money into the fight to do so.

I was fortunate to have inherited over a half-million dollars from my parents. I have used this resource to help build the social and political movements needed for transformative change. I used this money to jump start my presidential campaigns in 2016 and 2012, statewide campaigns before that, and to help build the Green Party -- because, unfortunately, the most green, just investments won’t count for squat if the corporations and the super rich funding the Democrats and Republicans are still calling the shots. I also used this money to support my work with radical non profits, including the Massachusetts Coalition for Healthy Communities, and the Global Climate Convergence.

Of note, my husband and I hold separate investments that reflect somewhat different approaches to money management. These separate holdings are reported as such in my FEC filing.

From a campaign email this morning:

But because The Daily Beast is read by a lot of people it has affected our donations, which was their plan. Our contributions have dropped from $17,000 a day to about $3,000 a day.

I invested directly in oil companies in 2003 because I correctly guessed we would fuck up the occupation and the price of oil would skyrocket.

That doesn't make me a hypocrite. It makes me a realist.

The Daily Beast's Origin and Ownership

Tina Brown CBE (born Christina Hambley Brown; 21 November 1953), is a journalist, magazine editor, columnist, talk-show host and author of The Diana Chronicles, a biography of Diana, Princess of Wales. Born a British citizen, she took United States citizenship in 2005 after emigrating in 1984 to edit Vanity Fair. She is legally titled Lady Evans.[1]

Having been editor-in-chief of Tatler magazine at the age of 25, she rose to prominence in the American media industry as the editor of Vanity Fair from 1984 to 1992 and of The New Yorker from 1992 to 1998. In 2000 she was appointed a CBE (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) for her services to overseas journalism,[2] and in 2007 was inducted into the Magazine Editors' Hall of Fame.[3] As an editor, she has also been honored with four George Polk Awards, five Overseas Press Club awards, and ten National Magazine Awards.[4] In October 2008, she partnered with Barry Diller, chairman of IAC/InterActiveCorp, to found and edit The Daily Beast. Two years later, in November 2010, The Daily Beast merged with the American weekly news magazine Newsweek in a joint venture to form The Newsweek Daily Beast Company. In September 2013, Brown announced she would be leaving her position as editor-in-chief of The Daily Beast to launch Tina Brown Media [5] and pen Media Beast, a memoir of her years in the media world, slated to be published in 2016.

The Daily Beast's Editor in Chief

John Phillips Avlon (born 1973) is an American journalist and political commentator who is the editor in chief of The Daily Beast[2] and a CNN political analyst.[3] He is the author of Independent Nation: How Centrists Can Change American Politics,[4] which critically appraises both traditional American centrism and the more recent radical centrism. He is also the author of Wingnuts: How the Lunatic Fringe is Hijacking America.[5] Former President Bill Clinton said that the book Wingnuts "offers a clear and comprehensive review of the forces on the outer edges of the political spectrum that shape and distort our political debate. Shedding more heat than light they drive frustrated alienated citizens away from the reasoned discourse that can produce real solutions to our problems."[6] Avlon has also been a columnist and associate editor for The New York Sun and worked as chief speechwriter for former New York mayor Rudolph Giuliani.

Relationship of the Daily Beast with the Clinton Campaign

The Daily Beast is owned by IAC, where Vice Chair of the Clinton Foundation, Chelsea Clinton, serves on the board of directors.[18]

In March 2016, Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks alleged that The Daily Beast was biased in favour of the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton, stating that from the onset of the campaign in 2014, the website had twice as many positive than negative articles on Clinton. The Beast also included heavily negative allegations about Democrat opposition candidate Bernie Sanders, including allegations that he was a "sellout", not "electable", unpopular with black voters, a warmonger, an atheist Jew and a communist,[19] allegedly accusing Hawai'i of being "too white", according to Uygur,[20] and that his win in the Wisconsin primary, his sixth consecutive primary victory,[21] "changes nothing" for the Clinton or Sanders campaign.[20]

The Beast heavily commented on the alleged "Bernie Bro" phenomenon, and also alleged that "a vote for [Bernie Sanders] is a vote for Donald Trump".*

"Donald Trump-Loving Useful Idiots of the Left"

On August 15, 2016 the Daily Beast published an article by James Kirchick which listed Corey Robin, Glenn Greenwald, Ishaan Tharoor, Katrina vanden Heuvel, and others as "Hillary Clinton-Loathing, Donald Trump-Loving Useful Idiots of the Left."[33][34][35] The article was criticized as being inaccurate by several journalists, such as Jeet Heer, a senior editor at The New Republic[36] and essayist Emmett Rensin, with the latter calling Kirchick "a liar and a hack."[37] Washington Post columnist Greg Sargent tweeted about Kirchick: "Area man willfully confuses refusal to unthinkingly parrot all criticism of Trump with 'admiration' for him."[38] Tharoor reacted by tweeting to Kirchick: "if you had a shred of decency or integrity, you would correct your ridiculous smear of me, but we know that you don't."[39] Greenwald tweeted: "Good job, @TheDailyBeast. Way to come back from your outing-Olympian debacle. Keeping the standards high."[40]

(The connections with the Clinton campaign section doesn't even mention Bubba's lovely review of a book written by the editor-in-chief of the Daily Beast.)

Any questions, Beloveds? Or are we crystal?

*Isn't it amazing how a political publication doesn't seem to know the difference between (1) a vote in a Democratic primary for the guy who was doing much better than Clinton against Trump--and every Republican hopeful-- in head to head polling and (2) a vote for Trump in a general election? Or was that just Mrs. Hedge Fund talking?

Word: A vote for Sanders in the Democratic primary was a vote for Sanders (the guy who would be trouncing Trump now, instead of asking angrily "Why am I not fifty points ahead?" .

A vote for Stein in the general is a vote for Stein (and possibly also for greater ballot access in 2020 than just the two oldest, played out political parties). The only kind of vote you have is a vote. I know that because I checked: no state in the U.S. entitles anyone to a protest vote, only to a vote.
