Koch Brothers Sit Down This Weekend in Southern California

We about to have a sit down

Wrap the phone up in plastic and stick it in the fridge

They know where we are, but they don't know what we did...

Hid in plain sight wear the suit and tie nice

Mason mean more than a brick layer...

All in favor for a favor for a favor

Any other matter we gon' bring it to the table

Organization gotta have communication.

Four leading GOP presidential candidates – Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and Scott Walker – are traveling to a Southern California luxury hotel in coming days to make their cases directly to the Koch (pronounced like the street name for cocaine "coke") brothers and hundreds of other wealthy conservatives planning to spend close to $1 billion in the run-up to the 2016 election, reports Politico.

P continues:

The gathering – which also will include former Hewlett Packard CEO Carly Fiorina, but notably not Sen. Rand Paul — is hosted by Freedom Partners Chamber of Commerce, the umbrella group in the Kochs’ increasingly influential network of political and public policy outfits...

Freedom Partners’ annual summer conference is set for August 1 through August 3, and is expected to draw 450 of the biggest financiers of the right for sessions about the fiscally conservative policies and politics that animate the billionaire industrialist brothers Charles and David Koch and many of the donors in their network. Most have the capability to write seven- or even eight-figure checks to the super PACs fueling the GOP presidential primary, and a significant proportion have yet to settle on a 2016 choice, or are considering supporting multiple candidates. That includes Charles and David Koch, as well as Las Vegas casino mogul Sheldon Adelson and hedge fund billionaires Paul Singer, both of whom will be represented at the conference by advisers, and a number of other attendees of past conferences whose 2016 leanings are being closely watched.
