The 2018 990 of For Our Republic Fund run by Michael Hayes lists $2 million grant to Steve Bannon’s Citizens of the American Republic for ‘promotion of social welfare’ and paid $287,500 to Harris Media for digital marketing

Great find by @MountainsStars https://twitter.com/MountainsStars/status/1298707149493739520?s=20">https://twitter.com/Mountains...
In this Aug 2019 thread on Google political ads, @DivestTrump identified that the For Our Republic Fund spent $51,200 on political ads not reported to the FEC

The thread also notes We Build the Wall paid $425,000 on political ads not reported to FEC https://twitter.com/DivestTrump/status/1166846720958820354?s=20">https://twitter.com/DivestTru...
There& #39;s a Michael Hayes listed as treasurer for Secure America Now, an org funded by Robert Mercer, that has paid Harris Media for anti-Clinton and anti-Muslim campaigns https://twitter.com/MountainsStars/status/1298711403402936321?s=20">https://twitter.com/Mountains...
If Michael Hayes, treasurer for Secure America Now, is the same Michael Hayes who runs For Our Republic Fund which donated $2mil to Bannon nonprofit this is quite a convoluted web

Here& #39;s my thread noting Secure America link to Harris Media, Bannon, Broidy https://twitter.com/WendySiegelman/status/920660839417475072?s=20">https://twitter.com/WendySieg...
