Groups led by Stephen Miller and Charlie Kirk among recipients of large sums from Bradley Foundation and Bradley Impact Fund
Two powerful conservative non-profits have donated millions of dollars to a number of pro-Trump groups led by key far-right allies Stephen Miller, Charlie Kirk and others that have promoted election denialism, extremist anti-immigrant policies and legal challenges to bolster the Maga movement.
Based in Wisconsin, the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation and the Bradley Impact Fund in 2022 separately doled out six- and seven-figure checks to groups such as Miller’s America First Legal and Kirk’s Turning Point USA, and other Trump-friendly bastions such as the Heritage Foundation and Michael Flynn’s America’s Future.
Watchdog groups that track money in politics say the Bradley Foundation and the closely-tied Bradley Impact Fund have become increasingly influential in funding the Maga ecosystem in recent years as Trump is all but certain to be the Republican 2024 presidential nominee.
I just don’t get it. Everything is so focused on Trump. What happens when he’s gone?
Hopefully the fascist house of cards that is the Trump-obsessed GOP will collapse and not recover for decades, if ever.
It’s focused on Trump currently. When he’s gone they’ll focus on something else they always do. This isn’t new. There’s a reason wealthy right wing fascist bigots own everything they’re rich. We’re not taxing them properly. Or fining them for wage theft Etc as they should be.
It’s just a continuation of the grift.
