A🧵on Ryan Girdusky (banned by CNN for racist remark inciting violence) and financial links to Leonard Leo

In 2022 a nonprofit closely linked to Leo called The Concord Fund gave $270K to Girdusky's nonprofit and Leo's Marble Trust paid $888K to a firm run by Girdusky's relatives Image
In 2022 the Concord Fund (formerly JCN) run by Ann Corkery gave $270,000 to Ryan Girdusky's 1776 Education Project. Ann & husband Neil are tied closely to Leonard Leo. Neil is CFO of Leo's for profit CRC Advisors which The Concord Fund has paid over $20mil
projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/org…Image
Ryan Girdusky's 1776 Education Project nonprofit filing for 2022 shows total contributions of $210,000 - less than $270,000 in The Concord Fund filing (perhaps due payment timing) but it appears the Leo-linked fund may fully support Girdusky's nonprofit

NEW: Elon Musk’s pro-Trump America PAC has spent $144 million and over 40% went to Phil Cox - I analyzed FEC filings and found that $61.7 million was paid to firms linked to former GOP and DeSantis operative Phil Cox, who helps run America PAC, my latest:
newstracs.com/musks-america-…
America PAC received $140 million and Musk funded $118.5 million

Betsy DeVos, Trump’s former Secretary of Education and sister of Blackwater founder Erik Prince, donated $250,000 and with 6 members of the DeVos family provided $2 million to Musk’s PAC

newstracs.com/musks-america-…
America PAC has made $144 million in payments - of those $136 million are independent expenditures - payments to influence a federal election that support or oppose specific candidates

88% of expenditures were to support Trump or oppose Harris or Biden
