Ritchie Torres cannot claim to have the moral authority, while his campaign is funded by Billionaire Bigot Daniel Loeb.
Samelys López called on Councilmember Ritchie Torres to return all donations from billionaire bigot, Daniel Loeb. As reported by the Daily News this past November, Daniel Loeb, a hedge fund manager and prominent supporter of charter schools, gave Ritchie a maxed-out donation of $2800. At last week's City Limits' debate, Samelys called on Ritchie and all other candidates to return contributions from bigots and real estate developers.
In 2017, Loeb accused NY State Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins, who is African-American, of having done “more damage to people of color than anyone who has ever donned a hood” over a disagreement concerning charter schools.
Ritchie Torres has raised nearly $200,000 from the real estate industry, has less than 6% of his money coming from small donors, and has an average donation of over $300.
EDITOR'S NOTE:
Upon going over Samelys Lopez Financial Disclosure Statement 3/31/2020 we find only a report of $5,000.00 from the Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez PAC 'Courage for Change' dated 2/24/2020. On 3/8/2020 we reported that we received an e-mail from the 'Courage for Change' PAC that it had given 15th Congressional candidate Samelys Lopez $20,000.00. We would like to know where the missing $15,000.00 went candidate Samelys Lopez.
We have been unable to question Candidate Samelys Lopez on anything, because we have not been allowed by candidate Samelys Lopez's boyfriend who we now see is on the Lopez for Congress payroll, a is receiving $3,000.00 per month as a campaign staffer. That is seen below for February and March 2020. With three more months to go to the June election candidate Lopez's boyfriend will have received a total of $15,000.00 not counting any election day monies he may receive. Maybe that is where the missing $15,000.00 went.
