EXCLUSIVE: 'Shady trial lawyer pipeline' funneling millions to Democrats, according to report
In 2024 alone, the firms collectively donated $4M to political campaigns, 99% of which were for Democrat candidates or Democrat-allied committees

EXCLUSIVE: One of the country’s leading consumer protection firms released a report today exposing a "shady lawyer pipeline" of politicians handing out lucrative public contracts to trial lawyers, who in turn contribute millions of dollars to liberal political campaigns, including $1.4 million to the Harris-Walz campaign in 2024.

The report, released by Alliance for Consumers (AFC), highlights the deep Democratic ties of eight major consumer protection law firms — Morgan & Morgan, Lieff Cabraser, Motley Rice, Baron & Budd, Grant & Eisenhofer, Berger Montague, Cohen Milstein and Simmons Hanly — which it dubs the "Shady Eight."

According to AFC, these firms hold profitable public contracts across the country and contributed around $25 million in political donations from 2017 through 2024.

In 2024 alone, the firms collectively donated $4 million to political campaigns, 99% of which were for Democrat candidates or Democrat-allied committees.

The article doesn't explain what type of contract the government would enter into with a personal injury firm. Makes no sense. But at least some of their priority beneficiaries,  e.g. Casey and Brown, still lost their elections.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-
