we dug into a few of the companies that restarted political donations to GOP lawmakers who voted against the certification of the 2020 presidential election. Here's what we found:

Seems like you don’t quite understand how reporting works. If you’re running for public office reporters will look in to you so we have an informed electorate.
Giving you a chance to comment is journalistic standard. Framing journalism that’s not blatant PR as a hit piece is
KUDLOW: Are you backing Mitch McConnell?
RICK SCOTT: Well, look, I think we outta have to figure out, Larry, I think what we have to do is say, what do we do going forward? And that's what I want to do. I want to focus on how do we go forward.

Tricked into is a quite the assertion by Peterson. Trump, like any well known person has a team that’s supposed to vet anyone he meets or talks with. He’s not just some random guy that got duped. Advisors are supposed to catch things like this so it was obviously deliberate.

On Jan. 25, as first reported by Reuters, Alphabet, Google’s parent company, announced it would suspend all political donations via its PAC. According to FEC filings, the company donated in a different way.
We also found a discrepancy with Ford. According to their filings, it donated to two PACs that support lawmakers who voted against the certification back in December. That was before it vowed to suspend donations. The PAC's receipts show a different story.

Ford and Alphabet are far from the only companies to either restart donations, show that donations never really ended, or show some kind of discrepancy.

There have primaries but they've appeared to be for show and less about the Democratic process. The only one that could have passed as something close to resembling a real challenge was in NH. Dean Phillips took 20% of the vote there.

AIPAC had an influence for sure and its role manipulating elections is a valid criticism and might have pushed his challenger over the edge but this particular race it's a bit overstated.

Since some of the MAGA people don’t get it: today’s Supreme Court decision, which would provide Trump immunity for his crimes, also means there are no longer repercussions that would stop Biden or any president from doing something extreme like this.
