What made this donation even \u2064more interesting was that \u2063Naftali&#8217;s 17-year-old daughter \u200calso \u200bsent Clinton the \u2062same amount just days later. This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/white-house-already-having-to-deal-with-ethical-headache-created-by-kamala-harris-niece-report\/\" title=\"White House Already Having To Deal With \u2018Ethical Headache\u2019 Created By Kamala Harris\u2019 Niece: Report\">occurred shortly<\/a> after \u200bNaftali reached the\u2064 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/anti-israel-activists-defend-biden-state-dept-nominee\/\" title=\"Anti-Israel Activists Defend Biden State Dept. Nominee\">legal limit<\/a> for \u200dprimary campaign contributions to Clinton. Over the \u200byears,\u2062 Naftali&#8217;s children continued to follow in their mother&#8217;s footsteps, donating thousands of dollars to various \u2064Democratic politicians.<\/p>\n<p>Naftali&#8217;s daughter, who \u200dwas still in \u200chigh school at the\u200b time, not only made substantial \u200bdonations but also \u200dsecured a\u200c spot on\u200d Clinton&#8217;s National Finance Committee at the age of 18. She later worked as a \u200ctechnology consultant for the\u2062 Democratic\u200d National Committee while in college. The Naftali family&#8217;s support for liberal politicians didn&#8217;t stop \u200cthere. In July 2022, President Joe Biden appointed Naftali \u2062herself to his Commission for the \u200dPreservation of America&#8217;s Heritage Abroad, raising concerns \u200cabout <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/house-democrats-demand-roberts-investigate-allegations-against-thomas-and-alito\/\" title=\"House Democrats are urging Roberts to investigate allegations against Thomas and Alito.\">potential ethical issues<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>While the \u2064White House initially \u200dpromised anonymity for Hunter Biden&#8217;s art patrons, it was recently revealed \u200dthat Naftali was \u2064one of them. This revelation sparked \u2063further discussions about ethics,\u200d especially considering Hunter Biden&#8217;s art sales and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/when-hunter-bidens-art-patron-hit-federal-contribution-limits-her-underage-children-kept-the-money-to-dems-flowing\/\" title=\"Hunter Biden's art patron reached federal contribution limits, so her underage children continued to fund Democrats.\">ongoing legal battles related<\/a> to his taxes. It&#8217;s worth noting \u200bthat\u200d federal law allows minors to \u200cdonate \u200dto \u2063political campaigns, as \u200dlong\u2063 as\u200b they do so willingly and with their own money. In \u2063the\u200d case of \u2064Naftali&#8217;s children, \u200cthe funds they used for donations came from a \u2064trust set up by their grandparents.<\/p>\n<p>If Naftali directed or\u200c influenced her children&#8217;s contributions after she reached\u2062 her donation\u2063 limit, it could potentially be\u2062 seen as a straw donation scheme. \u2063Campaign\u2064 finance watchdogs \u200chave raised\u200b concerns about this possibility. Despite these\u200d questions,\u200b the Naftali family \u200dhas\u2064 remained silent on the \u2064matter.<\/p>\n<h3>Following \u2063in Their Mother&#8217;s Footsteps<\/h3>\n<p>In\u2064 addition to\u2062 the underage contributions, \u200cNaftali&#8217;s \u2062children have continued to \u200csupport Democratic politicians, often mirroring \u200ctheir mother&#8217;s donation\u2064 habits. For example, in 2020, three\u200b of \u200cNaftali&#8217;s children made maximum contributions to Joe Biden&#8217;s\u200b campaign \u200cafter their mother had already donated over\u200c $5,000. They have also contributed to lesser-known Democrats, including Antonio Delgado, Abby Finkenauer, and Asif Mahmood, \u200dlong\u2063 after \u2062Naftali\u2063 herself was\u200c no longer able to contribute.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2004, Naftali has funneled millions of dollars to Democrats, while her children \u2063have contributed over $146,000 \u200bto 46\u2063 Democratic\u200b politicians and committees \u2063since 2012. The influence of the Naftali family in \u200dthe political \u2063landscape is \u2064undeniable.<\/p>\n<h3>White House Connections<\/h3>\n<p>Shortly \u200cafter Hunter Biden&#8217;s first art show in November 2021, Naftali met with White House policy \u2062adviser Richard Figueroa. This meeting was followed by \u2064at least 12 more visits to the White \u200dHouse, including a private meeting \u200dwith senior White House\u200b adviser Neera \u2062Tanden. The White\u200b House had\u2064 promised safeguards regarding Hunter Biden&#8217;s art\u200b sales, but Naftali&#8217;s presence and connections raise questions about the extent of those safeguards.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s important \u2062to\u2063 note that Hunter Biden himself has indicated \u2063his\u200c influence in\u2062 appointments to the Commission for the Preservation of\u2063 America&#8217;s Heritage Abroad. When his cousin\u2063 requested a spot on the commission, Hunter Biden mentioned that \u2063his business partner had successfully secured\u200d a\u200c position\u2063 in \u20642015. Despite\u200c this, the Biden administration claims\u200b that it was former House\u2064 speaker Nancy \u2063Pelosi who recommended Naftali for the \u2063commission.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Elizabeth Hirsh Naftali, a prominent supporter of liberal politicians and causes, has donated millions of dollars.
