Marco Rubio isn’t voting in the Senate, raising money, or hitting the campaign trail but he is running on all cylinders to woo the Koch brothers and win the Koch primary with another stop today with one of the Kochs’ “constituency” groups.
This morning in South Carolina, Marco Rubio is doing a town hall with Koch front group Concerned Veterans for America.
Despite claiming to work for veterans, CVA pushes the Koch agenda first and foremost — that means standing in opposition with nearly every other veterans organization and advocating for extreme right-wing policies that hurt our nation’s heroes.
Over the summer, Bridge Project teamed up with VoteVets to put out a report on the shady group’s true intentions. (Check out the full report, The Veterans Group That Fights Against Veterans, here.)
Concerned Veterans for American operates under the auspices of promoting policies that are good for veterans and their families — but they’re really only interested in pushing an agenda that’s good for the Kochs’ and helping elect the Kochs’ puppet candidates.

It’s no surprise Marco Rubio found time in his schedule for the Kochs’ so-called veterans group. For months, he’s looked for every potential opportunit
By appearing at a CVA town hall this morning, Marco Rubio is proving yet again, if he wins the GOP nomination, it will be good for the Kochs, but bad for middle class families — and the veterans that CVA claims to fight for — across the country.
