robert mercer set up his own foundation. the mercer family foundation. headed by his daughter rebecca. but what exactly are these special interests he's protecting. it's hard to say since robert mercer never expresses his opinions publicly anyway you'll never know what's going on in private this is brian said just look that's what he's funding for all of the money that way and i think that kind of bill for the paycheck. to understand the ideas that robert mercer wants to promote we can. look at where he's been spending we can do so with tax documents declarations of the foundation's fiscal allocations for the years 2012 to 2015 mercer financed a number of institutes and lobbies among them the heritage foundation which fights taxes and economic regulation $1500000.00 the media research center which fights leftist media bias $12000000.00 the government accountability institute which tracks government corruption and publishes books against hillary clinton 3.7 $1000000.00 the heartland institute which defends climate change skeptics $2800000.00. in new york

then he invited lusy mercer to stay with him. she brought with her a painter friend, who wanted to do a portrait of roosevelt. then what happens is that he seems to be getting better. he takes these little driving trips with lucy. there was a favorite place where you could see the whole valley in georgia from that place. lucy wrote she would never forget that day when he talked about all the plans for when his presidency was over and the idealism he had of what the world would be like after the war was over. on april 12th he woke up and people surprisingly thought he looked better than he had for weeks. his color was radiant probably it was as doctors said the embolism that killed him was developing. all that morning he was talking to lucy and her friend who was painting a portrait of him. the two spinster cousins are there. suddenly in the middle of talking to them at noon on april 12th he suddenly said i have a terrific headache and he slumped forward. one of the cousins weapon over to him thinking he had dropped his cigarette
