Donald Trump, his most generous backer Sheldon Adelson and Adelson’s wife Miriam. Click to enlarge
The news late yesterday was that Sheldon and Miriam Adelson poured $75 million in September into a new super PAC that supports Donald Trump. Way more money than other donors, on either side.
Many news outlets have now reported the outsized sum, which is plainly important to Trump’s flailing campaign. Oddly, none of them is reporting the Adelsons’ number one issue, Israel, or the fact that Miriam Adelson is Israeli, or that the Adelsons are close to Netanyahu, or that our transactional president has done just about everything Israel wants. Nope, the big story is still Russian influence.
AP has a sizeable story on the donation with Sheldon Adelson’s name in the headline, but a neutral characterization:
A major funder of Republican causes, Adelson has donated over $250 million to GOP candidates and super PACs since 2015.
CNN has the Adelsons in their headline, but the donation seems to be about Miriam’s Presidential Medal of Freedom.
In 2018, Trump bestowed the Presidential Medal of Freedom — the country’s highest civilian honor — on Miriam Adelson, citing her philanthropic work.
Politico’s report, titled “Adelsons pour $75 million into last-ditch effort to save Trump,” says nothing about Israel but counts up all the Adelsons’ largesse:
The money for Preserve America brought the Adelsons’ giving to Republican candidates and committees to a whopping $176 million for the 2020 election cycle, according to FEC data.
In two reports, NPR also failed to say a word about the Adelsons’ agenda, though it also cited the medal and another angle: “in April of this year [Trump] appointed Sheldon Adelson, the CEO of Las Vegas Sands, to his council of business leaders who would advise him on reopening the country.”
As Trump himself said last month, his foreign policy has been “good for Israel.”
I withdrew from the last administration’s disastrous Iran nuclear deal. So good for Israel. So good that we did that.
His list of pro-Israel actions includes moving the embassy to Jerusalem, defunding the UN refugee agency serving Palestinians, closing down the Palestinian mission in Washington, recognizing Israel’s annexation of the Golan Heights, giving legal validity to Israel’s colonization of the West Bank, lately harsh sanctions and belligerent language aimed at Iran, and on and on. It’s obvious that all these actions are what Adelson wants. He helped found the organization One Jerusalem to stop a Palestinian state, says Palestinians are not a people but are actually “southern Syrians”, and called on the last president to nuke Iran. He has been in attendance at major Trump policy announcements on the issue.
When Trump trashed the Iran deal in 2018, Eli Clifton was blunt about his reasons: “three billionaires paved the way,” including Adelson, Bernard Marcus, and Paul Singer, all Israel supporters. A recent NY Times retrospective on the 2016 campaign was also more frank about Adelson’s interest: “gambling magnate, Republican megadonor and strident voice for Israel.”
But today Adelson is in the headlines, at a crunch time in the presidential campaign, when voters are scrutinizing Trump’s record, and alleged Russian influence is in the news every day– and the media avoid the Israel influence like a hot stove.
Adelson himself is brash about his interest. He says he wished he’d have served in the Israeli army not the American one, he owns a leading Israeli newspaper and funds an organization for free Jewish American tourism to Israel so that young Jews will marry Israelis. He calls Trump all the time, per Alan Dershowitz, and has told Trump, “the biggest thing you did for Israel” was breaking the Iran deal, Trump himself said.
We understand why the media are squeamish about the issue. They don’t want to feed the antisemitic claim that rich Jews control politicians. But in the Adelson case, there’s no trope. He’s not working behind the scenes. He openly loves Israel, is married to an Israeli, and Trump has even acknowledged his influence. Adelson has gotten what he paid for. It’s appalling that there’s been no coverage of this angle. At least AP tried to call Adelson.
And we can only imagine what these Israel supporters are giving Trump in October…
Like Trump, Adelson owns Hotel resorts and Casinos – including most of the gambling ops in Macau, just 40 minutes from Hong Kong. More money passes through there than Vegas. Birds of a feather . . .
emener hldon Adelson thought the microphone was turned off when he said to Senator John Mc cain
“john we have paid of your whoring and gambling debts you now work for us”
It was Sheldon Adelson who won a million $ bet when he said he would put a man in the white house who was :-]#Not american born
a black man
a homosexual deviant he won the bet with Obama
Sheldon Adelson like George Soros works with israel to dstroy america.
Trump has sold his soul same as Hillary and BIll, obama the Bushes etc etc
Jimmy Kennedy
I have heard of this bet, but who was the bet with? I’d like to know who paid out a million, for not thinking the system can be rigged? A naive billionaire?? Bit of an oxymoron eh?
you know what? i don’t care. i care more at present about the Biden/China connection, add Obama in there, spying on Trump, the Russia Russia nothing burger and millions of dollars spent, and the continued lies. why don’t you talk about the amt of money Soros plays in the Democratic party or BLM or?????
The goyim have no political power. All these ‘western democracies’ are covertly controlled by an oligarchy of Jews (Jewocracy) managing all the prominent political parties, who select what candidates they want & present them to the goy morons who vote in fixed elections.
When you control all sides, you can’t lose.
Bolshevik Communist Ashkenazi Khazar SATANISTS own Trump, just as they own Biden and the US Congress. America stopped being the land of the free and the brave a little over 100 years ago. Dig deep and learn of the PURE EVIL of the Jew and Freemason Satanists who control America. Do you know what the Ninth Circle is. Ask your Representatives and Senators in the US Congress if they are pedophiles. Ask WHY the US funded the criminal terrorists in Syria. Ask WHY Israel has not been destroyed for doing 911. The US is DEAD, killed by Jews, just as Jews killed Russia in 1917.
Henry yes good point, i remember watching this on one of the Moishe Solomons yutube vids, alas everything by him was taken down
i was disgusted at Sheldon basting of doing this and winning a million dollars
bastards
@tess….I guess you haven’t figured it out yet that both Rep/Dem parties are owned/controlled by the same cabal of mongrel Federal Reserve Jews. You’re living in a Jewocracy, not a ‘democracy’….When you control all sides, you can’t lose.
Nobody has done more for Israel then Donald J Trump.
Like it hate it.
Its the truth.
President Trump was investigated for what Hillary Clinton did, Impeached for what Joe Biden did, blamed for what China did and is now being attacked for what Hunter did.
This is outright disgraceful.
Thanks Neo for a short accurate summation of the rigged game.
This stuff is pretty much laid out by the former British journalist (note FORMER…Helen Thomas in Washinstein and FORMER congresswoman Cynthia McKenna) …the chap who wrote the book The Controversy of Zion….it goes without saying these harmless persecuted people destroyed the former Times correspondents career and reputation.
Today this can be publicised on the internet…but guess what, the Jews are censoring it left right and centre…..
Let’s hope if there is a revolution the Zio-Freak running Facebook is “Barretized” by a former US Army grunt….anyone interfering with the US Constitution deserves nothing less.
It ain’t just Adelsons, Trump has surrounded himself by Jews, and a vote for Trump is suicide, as Trump is not only married into the Jews, he entire staff is a laundry list of Jews. Amerika is doomed.

All Jew articles are worthless. Here we see the word “antisemitic” when nearly all members of the Trump crowd are Ashkenazic and so prevalent that the word makes me imagine Mike Tyson crying and accusing his opponent of anti-Mike-ism after the opponent called him names.
The Jews around Trump are not the President–a White man is. America does not vote for a Jew. Jews just buzz around him like flies. Power is with the President.
