Pretty crazy. But also heavily against the echo chamber here, so it will silently fall to oblivion.

I tried asking ChatGPT if the Republicans have done something similar to this like the Dems are now claiming. It found one example, in an early primary that could not in any way be tied to the leadership of the republican party or anyone tied to the primary candidate.
So, quite a different beast.
Edit: It was in 2012.

I mean Republicans have done tons of corrupt things. Not really open to debate for me. It's just they always sit on the top page of HN for a day if not more then a day due to hundreds of upvotes. But then a bombshell report like this comes out and its all crickets.
It doesn't help it's the NYT, so the usual crowd that just denounces things on the basis of the publisher doesn't have any ammunition.
