Hillary Clinton is working to launch a political group focused on pushing back against President Donald Trump’s agenda, Politico reported Thursday, citing “multiple people close to” Clinton.
The group, which will likely be called Onward Together, could launch this week, according to Politico. Clinton has spent the past two weeks talking with potential donors and efforts to fund, as well as potential members of the group’s board, per Politico. The organization will not focus on its own initiatives and will instead funnel money to other groups, according to Politico.
Axios also reported on Wednesday that Clinton is looking to launch a PAC to help fund groups and candidates in 2018.
I appreciate it Hil , but we really really need some new blood leading this movement.
We need a firebrand like Weiner without the stupidity.
When she told Amanpour she was back to be part of the Resistance, I was just a little bit thrilled. She’s a street fighter at her core and one of those people whose understanding of fear is a hazy and vague thing mostly derived from other people’s experiences as portrayed in books and movies. And I think in general it’s the women who will lead this fight. Call it a hunch.
Quite possibly true, but we could use some old money behind the new blood.
Yes I guess it boils down to that
You won’t get shit without a boatload of cash
Thank you SCOTUS and Citizen’s united
It doesn’t sound much to me like she’s trying to lead the movement. She’s just trying to make sure it’s well funded to actually help get people elected. I’m guessing she sees that while the Resistance is strong, it needs money and lots of it if we’re going to do anything more than protest and make noise.
ETA: I want that lady to get her gavel back.
