@MollyJongFast @maddow did her show on this one day this week. Hopefully you can catch it on YouTube. The info went to Russian intelligence so they could help boost Rump and damage Biden.

What are things a black family could never do for $500 Alex.

45. @Toyota, which after 1/6 said it would be "assessing our future PAC criteria," donated $1,000 to @andybiggs4az on 2/26

Biggs is the 18th objector to get cash from Toyota

[Judd Legum @JuddLegum]

42. @CawthornforNC received no corporate PAC money, but he doesn't need it. He's willing to say whatever is necessary to rile up Republican grassroots donors. He raised $1 million in Q1.

[Judd Legum @JuddLegum]

28. While this thread is highlighting corporate PACs that made donations to Republican objectors after 1/6, I want to note that, thus far, the filings show that the overwhelming majority of corporations are abiding by their pledges not to donate to the 147 objectors

[Judd Legum @JuddLegum]

25. @Toyota has now given to TEN members of Congress who voted to overturn the election.

The latest is a $1K to @RepSmucker on 3/23.

[Judd Legum @JuddLegum]

21. In February, @Cigna donated 15K to the @NRSC, which is chaired by @SenRickScott, who objected to the certification of the Electoral College

[Judd Legum @JuddLegum]

14. @KochIndustries & the Koch political network are run by the same person: Charles Koch.

@KochIndustries donated to the these GOP objectors in 2021:

@RonEstesKS (5K)
@RepMikeJohnson (2.5K)
@CongressmanGT (2.5K)
@RepAdrianSmith (2.5K)
@RepRichHudson (2.5K)
@RepJimBanks (2.5K)

[Judd Legum @JuddLegum]

13. After 1/6, the Koch political network said: "Lawmakers’ actions leading up to and during last week’s insurrection will weigh heavy in our evaluation of future support"

@KochIndustries then donated 105K to the @NRSC, which is chaired by @SenRickScott, one of the objectors

[Judd Legum @JuddLegum]

9. One end-around these corporate pledges are trade associations. For example, @GM and @WellsFargo pledged to suspend all political giving

But they are both members of @AFSA_DC, which donated $1K on 2/22 to @RepTimmons, who voted to overturn the election

[Judd Legum @JuddLegum]

4. A new FEC filing from @RepTimmons, who voted to overturn the election, reveals that he received a $1,000 donation from @Toyota on 3/22

He's the 7th member to object to the certification of the Electoral College and then receive a donation from Toyota.

[Judd Legum @JuddLegum]

1. Today is the most significant FEC deadline since the 1/6 insurrection.

We'll learn which corporations are keeping their promises and which are hoping people have stopped paying attention.

I'll be tracking the most significant filings in this thread.

Follow if interested.

@LateNightSeth Shame you only mentioned @emeraldfennell’s nominations for Promising Young Woman (167 of them, BTW), but not the 101 wins. How many Baftas just a few days ago? Hint: the biggest ones.

[L. M. @morelaugh]

@LateNightSeth How many Baftas did @emeraldfennell win? Should you know that when you interview her? A generic “way to go on your nominations” four days after the show? Really??? (insert angry Amy REALLY here).

[L. M. @morelaugh]

Dammit @jimmyfallon, when you run long, we miss @ambermruffin riffing with @latenightseth! Please finish Thursdays on time.

@VABVOX @QueenBertRoyal Adding “eat in a healthy manner (mostly)”. Someone in the fam just got a diabetes diagnosis.

[L. M. @morelaugh]

.@Maddow @maddowblog More about The Sackler Act, and “Empire of Pain” by Patrick Radden Keene please.

Ducking responsibility for the human suffering the Sacklers unleashed via OxyContin seems like a story in need of Rachel. #SacklersMadeOxyContin
