UPDATE: The Dallas Express has covered this story here.
Since mid-April Irving has been flooded with signs, texts, and mailers (and who knows what else) funded by "Lone Star Conservative Action Fund."
The Receipts
Here's what we know about the "Lone Star Conservative Action Fund."
Lone Star Action was created just a few months after the deed of the PUD 6 property was transferred to the Sands Corp shell company, Village Walk.
The “executive director” listed on the group's IRS 990 form is Aaron de Leon, Owner and President of Leon Strategies.
Leon Strategies only follows three profiles on Twitter, with the TX Destination Resort Alliance being one.
The Alliance also follows Leon Strategies.
Leon Strategies received $25K from Opportunity and Prosperity PAC:
The largest donor of that PAC by far was Las Vegas Sands:
Additionally, there are three other listed directors: Jacob Pomroy, Fernando Trevino and Larry Taylor:
Larry Taylor is former State Senator Larry Taylor whose top payee was Murphy Nasica:
He now works as a registered lobbyist:
Trevino too is a well-connected political operative and a registered lobbyist.
Pomroy worked for Murphy Nasica for three years.
Murphy Nasica has helped Sands every step of the way, even showing up to the Irving P&Z commission–one Murphy Nasica rep (Randle Meadows) unethically spoke in favor of the casino without revealing he was a paid consultant and lying about his address.
In an effort to cover his tracks, Meadows deleted Murphy Nasica from his LinkedIn, but not before Irving residents captured it in a screenshot.
Why would a supposedly “conservative” political nonprofit whose main work thus far was to support Dustin Burrows for Speaker and help the Sands-funded Jeff Leach be so concerned about the Irving election that they are supporting the President of the Irving NAACP over the incumbent who cleaned up the libraries?
Why would they support a woman who donated to Colin Allred and calls homeless people “unhomed” over the father of a large family?
Why support Pfaff who championed the Covid vaccine and posts negatively about Trump? Why be involved in a local city council election at all?
This is dark money being funneled from Miriam Adelson and Las Vegas Sands. It doesn’t take a genius or a conspiracy theorist to connect the dots:
