@Microsoft would like you to know that it mailed Hawley’s check a few days before Hawley received it. It has not ruled out future contributions to Hawley. Nor has it asked for a refund, which is what @Hallmark did — PolitiTweet.org

@fxshaw I just received an email from one of your colleague about an hour ago saying that the check was mailed in December 17. That’s not publicly available data but I have no reason to doubt it. It was reported as received by Hawley in December 31, which was after his announcement — PolitiTweet.org

@fxshaw It was a riot, not a protest but yes. The donations were made prior to the riot. — PolitiTweet.org

8. Publicly, Brad Smith likes to paint an image of himself as a socially conscious person. But he's funding politicians that deny climate science and block government action because he wants to pick up the phone and get favors https://t.co/iltS6n0zsX — PolitiTweet.org

@Microsoft 5. As I first noted yesterday: On DECEMBER 30, 2020: Josh Hawley (@HawleyMO) announced he would object to the certification of the electoral college On DECEMBER 31, 2020: @Microsoft donated $2500 to Hawley — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@Microsoft 4. We've maintained a list of companies who have pledged to suspend donations to the 147 members of Congress who objected to the electoral college. @Microsoft is not on that list. Now we know why. https://t.co/r4Z4TjJUCe — PolitiTweet.org

@NoVanessa @Microsoft Lobbying is also kind of gross but this is suggesting that he can buy favors for politicians by consistently writing them checks. — PolitiTweet.org

@Microsoft 3. Smith says @Microsoft is going to continuing to give lots of politicians money because this "help" -- which includes help on "tax issues" -- is "important" Apparently more important than the integrity of the democratic process. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@Microsoft 2. In a transcript of the meeting leaked to CNBC, Smith said that @Microsoft needs to make contributions to politicians because sending these politicians money allows him to "pick up the phone" and get "help" https://t.co/wejwhsPVUW — PolitiTweet.org
