Two days after the insurrection, SCOTUS quietly took up a case by Charles Koch\u2019s AFPF.
Suing former CA AG Xavier Becerra, AFPF claims that requiring anonymous shell companies to routinely disclose their donors is a violation of their rights.https://t.co/IYv7Qr59xZ
Recall that AFPF also has a case at SCOTUS - right now.
While they funnel millions into campaigns to influence our political system, they are simultaneously arguing that it would be a violation of their rights to force them to disclose where the money came from.
Worth noting here that the Koch network (Americans for Prosperity) lobbied against the For the People Act in the first quarter of 2021.
