On October 23, casino magnate Sheldon Adelson made a $650,000 donation to the Republican Party of Wisconsin. That same day, the GOP transferred $450,000 to Walker’s campaign account.
Adelson wasn’t the only billionaire taking advantage of the Randa ruling. The Republican Party also received $1 million from Beloit billionaire Diane Hendricks, with whom Walker was caught on tape discussing his yet-to-be-introduced anti-union Act 10 legislation in early 2011 as part of a “divide and conquer” strategy.
