Exposes Arabella Advisors as a major "dark money" operation that channels billions into progressive causes through opaque networks and deceptive grassroots groups, revealing its significant influence on U.S. politics and its far-reaching impact on issues from Supreme Court nominations to election manipulation.

"Ever heard of Arabella Advisors? Probably not. And that's strange, since they've done a lot to destroy the world you grew up in. You should know, so read this book."

-Tucker Carlson

While billionaires like George Soros, Bill Gates, and Warren Buffett are well known as left-wing megadonors transforming the country's politics, few Americans know about Arabella Advisors, a "dark money" operation that channels much of this money into particular causes via pop-up groups designed to look like grassroots outfits. Citizens across the spectrum will be shocked to learn how Arabella's empire secretly operates using arrangements that produce the darkest of "dark money."

Thanks to the author and his colleagues at the Capital Research Center, which first exposed Arabella, even the mainstream press have begun to report on this scandalous story. As this book reveals, Arabella is a major player in battles over Supreme Court nominations, environmentalism, abortion, Medicare for All, fake local news outlets, "Zuck Bucks" that manipulate election offices, lawsuits brought by Democratic super-lawyer (and Steele dossier booster) Marc Elias, and much more.

The money is staggering. In the 2018 election cycle, Arabella's nonprofits took in $1.2 billion, more than double the fundraising of the Democratic National Committee and the Republican National Committee combined. In the 2020 election cycle, Arabella's fundraising spiked to $2.4 billion.

This mountain of money explains why the left-leaning major media are alarmed. Arabella is "the indisputable heavyweight of Democratic dark money," warns the Atlantic. A "dark-money behemoth," says Politico. An "opaque network," says the New York Times, that funnels "hundreds of millions of dollars through a daisy chain of groups supporting Democrats and progressive causes."
