See anything odd there?
Overlap between donors to the Center for American Progress (CAP) and the client list of the lobbying firm founded by John Podesta, CAP’s outgoing chairman, has some wondering whether the think tank acts as an extension of Podesta’s influence peddling.
CAP released a list of its 2013 donors on Friday, though large gaps in information about its finances persist. The Nation obtained a list of 2012 donors in May. freebeacon.com...

Podesta Group Clients Donated to Podesta’s Center for American Progress 12 corporate CAP donors paid Podesta Group millions
It has also supported other groups that back Obamacare, including the Tides Center, the 501(c)(3) arm of the left-wing umbrella group the Tides Foundation. The Blue Shield of California Foundation gave Tides more than $3 million in 2011, the last year for which a 990 form is publicly available.

So Podesta is working hard for disclosure and now his group specifically comes under fire? Hmm.... funny how that happens...
You do not even get into the upper sphere of politics without handing over a loaded gun to the controllers.
There are no saviours. All we can do is look at who benefits and 'what does it achieve?' & even that is not apparent immediately without insight.
