Look into Mothership Strategies and you’ll see why. Wood is kinda like a total scam artist.

washingtonreporter.news/p/op-ed-eric...
Just last month, Stanford University professor Adam Bonica published an analysis of FEC data since 2018 showing that Mothership-linked groups, including ECU, raised $678 million, but only about $11 million reached their intended candidates or campaigns. This means roughly 98 cents of every dollar — often from grassroots donors advocating for a cause they care about — went to overhead and consultants. Now, the operatives running this scam are showing up in politics in a new way. This spring, former longtime ECU vice president Jordan Wood announced a campaign for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate in Maine, to potentially challenge longtime Sen. Susan Collins (R., Maine). Wood actually served as the original Finance Director for ECU, meaning he played a key role in how they handled millions in donations and their relationship with Mothership.

As long as their name isn’t Jordan Wood, I agree. Here is my public service for the day.

Jordan Wood doesn’t just have skeletons, he’s pretty swampy. Here is my public service for the day.

Wood profited off scandals so well known, they are case studies.

People have talked about Wood. It’s just no one who’s researched it has nice things to say.

In spite of having 0 private sector experience, Wood lives a very nice lifestyle for someone who speaks of growing up poor.

There have been investigations into Wood for 10 years. It’s curious the pundits obsessing on the ME primary keep not noticing Wood.

Out the gate, ECU - under the guidance of Wood and his husband — used fundraising tactics that stole money meant for other democratic charities and involved SPAM and misleading tactics - little of the money went to Dem candidates or causes.

After that story broke

Speaking of propaganda, I’m really amazed at all these super smart political experts — obsessing over the Maine primary and demanding one perfect candidates run … totally not noticing Jordan Wood.

Coincidence?

Please name a single non Schumer candidate you support in the PRIMARY election.

Also, you say you raise money for democratic candidates. So, why don’t you tell the kids on bsky about Jordan Wood — unless, of course, you’re in his network and on his payroll.

Wood’s husband founded ECU and got his boyfriend a high paid job while accused of unjust enrichment through self dealing — creating multiple PACs which funneled more money to entities that profited himself than to dem political candidates.

Note the dates of Jordan Wood’s employment at ECU - he was treasurer and political director for the scandal reported by Huffington Post (and others) in 2016 and for the effort to disrupt internet searches to hide the scandal.

Notably, Wood got that high paid job from his husband.

Jordan Wood’s longest employer, End Citizens United, did not endorse him even though they exist to endorse candidates.

When Wood was treasurer and political director at ECU, he cut the checks to help hide bad press coverage of other scandals that implicated him.

Maybe ask yourself how someone with scant employment history and most of that in his husbands PACs … bought this house.

And why he hasn’t made any of the financial disclosures that he purportedly tried to pass into law for 10 years.

Nice house for someone with no private sector experience and, except for an 18 month remote job as a staffer, worked exclusively in his husband’s PAC’s — with his husband accused of self dealing scams.

i just looked at your profile and it said you’re autistic. In case this is helpful, here is an AI summary of a widely used means of determining class.

End Citizens United did not endorse Jordan Wood , wanting to distance themselves from scandals in which he directly participared.

ECU was one of many PACs founded by his husband, accused of self dealing unjust enrichment and using misleading tactics.

Pretty nice house for a guy who’s never worked in the private sector and linked to a self dealing scandal. Also, whose only employment is in his husbands packs, and his most prominent employer , ECU, refusing to endorse him

Nice house for a guy with almost no employment history - except for PACs accused of self dealing to enrich his husband - who also created those PACs and got Wood his jobs.

Do some internet searches.

This is all of Jordan Wood’s job history - per his LinkedIn in page. Note that the scandal regarding ECU tactics for money raising and shutting down investigations into itself were started during the period that Wood was treasurer/ wrote the checks.
