Josh Turek was caught fundraising from a San Francisco “AI roundtable” hosted by Anthropic fan left-wing Senator Adam Schiff. This event comes as a fast-growing network of AI and effective-altruism donors ramps up its political spending.
As reported by Politico:
“Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) invited Maine Senate candidate Troy Jackson and Minnesota Senate candidate Peggy Flanagan for a roundtable with AI safety researchers and experts in San Francisco this weekend. The event raised over $200,000 for those candidates, one of multiple fundraisers in Los Angeles and San Francisco that hauled in more than $750,000 over the weekend for Flanagan, Jackson, Turek and the DSCC.”
“Josh Turek is absent from Iowa, spending his time schmoozing with the Democrat coastal elites who are bankrolling his campaign,” said NRSC Regional Press Secretary Samantha Cantrell.
