Charles T. Munger, Jr."

I google him and found this: https://www.politico.com/newsletters/california-playbook/2025/08/19/scoop-how-dems-are-preparing-to-torch-a-megadonor-fighting-ca-redistricting-00513926

Scoop: How Dems are preparing to torch a megadonor fighting CA redistricting
By DUSTIN GARDINER and BLAKE JONES 08/19/2025 09:00 AM EDT

MUNGER GAMES — Charles Munger Jr., the megadonor backing Republicans’ effort to block "Democrats from redrawing California’s congressional map, has primarily been known to the public as the bow-tie-wearing champion of good-government causes like independent redistricting and legislative transparency."

"But there’s a lesser-known aspect of Munger’s financial giving that Democrats are preparing to torch him on."

"Munger, a Palo Alto physicist, has contributed more than $158,000 to socially conservative causes over the last 25 years, according to federal tax filings — including to organizations that oppose abortion rights and promote so-called crisis pregnancy centers, and to Christian groups whose leaders have opposed LGBTQ+ rights."

The article goes on to describe what a butt this guy is.

I hope we have big glossy flyers coming out also, to counter these lies.
