I kept thinking maybe in the future editions [of Dark Money] I should sell it along with, like, some kind of, you know, Pepto Bismol or something. I wanted it to read a little bit like a thriller, so that it truly grabbed people.

More quotes by Jane Mayer
The possibility exists that the Kochs will walk away with even more power if [Donalds] Trump's defeated.
Jane Mayer
Let's face it, the subject of campaign finance is not always scintillating. But it's incredibly important.
Jane Mayer
[The Kochs] they hate big government.
Jane Mayer
Nothing predicts future behavior as much as past impunity.
Jane Mayer
People I've interviewed say they're terrified there may be boycotts of their [the Kochs] products, which include so many household items that everybody's familiar with, things like Stainmaster Carpet and Dixie Cups and Brawny paper towels and Lycra.
Jane Mayer
The Kochs are very much involved in this election, not backing [Donald] Trump but backing everything down the ballot from him. They're pouring money into capturing the Senate and the House of Representatives, and state Houses across the country.
Jane Mayer
It's hard for them to run away from their record. The Kochs are businessmen.
Jane Mayer
The Kochtopus is the nickname that people who've worked for the Kochs came up with because there's so many tentacles and it likes the shadows. I really feel the first step is to provide the information.
Jane Mayer
It's quite amazingly radical, what their [the Kochs] vision of America would be.
Jane Mayer
They [the Kochs] want free trade and cheap labour. They own the second-largest private company in America, which is a huge multinational corporation. So they are on a different wavelength.
Jane Mayer
[Donald] Trump has put forward a list of people he would like to see on the Supreme Court, whom the Kochs would be very happy with too. So it's not all bad for them.
Jane Mayer
Well, they are critics of the Bush administration generally on the human rights record of the administration, and in particular, they are very, very critical of this use of science.
Jane Mayer
This year [2016] we're seeing a really strange upending [of the party]. The money was coming from these super-wealthy donors who were really on the far, hard right, people like the Kochs. So the party and the candidates moved so far to the right that a lot of people who don't share their point of view were unhappy.
Jane Mayer
Donald Trump actually is a pretty big-government conservative. He doesn't see eye-to-eye with them [the Kochs] on trade.
Jane Mayer
Ethically, I think pretty much every code of ethics for doctors suggests that they should not be in an interrogation room, particularly if there's anything coercive or abusive going on.
Jane Mayer
Money has much more power down the ballot.
Jane Mayer
There have been waves of reform in the past. I see no reason why they wouldn't happen again.
Jane Mayer
The great unknown in this country is where this leaves the Republican Party after this election. Will it be the party of the Kochs or will it be the party of [Donald] Trump?
Jane Mayer
The idea is that if we can put our own people through something almost as bad as what they might have to go through if they were taken captive, they will inoculate themselves.
Jane Mayer
[Tom] Steyer is specifically spending money on candidates who will take action against climate change.
