National Republicans gear up to fight referendum on Missouri congressional map
By: Jason Hancock
November 6, 2025 [….]A newly formed political action committee created to defend the gerrymandered congressional map drawn by Missouri lawmakers received $100,000 this week from national Republicans.
On Wednesday, Put Missouri First reported two $50,000 contributions — one from the National Republican Congressional Committee and the other from the Republican National Committee. It marks the first contributions to the PAC, which was created last week to counter the referendum campaign seeking to put the state’s congressional map on the 2026 ballot.
[….]
Now there’s a lot more. Today at the Missouri Ethics Commission for the PAC created to defend the right wingnut gerrymandering of Missouri’s congressional districts:
C253723 11/16/2025 Put Missouri First American Action Network Inc. 1747 Pennsylvania Ave NW Flr 5 Washington DC 20006 11/14/2025 $1,000,000.00
C253723 11/16/2025 Put Missouri First Securing American Greatness Inc. 138 Conant St Suite 401 Beverly MA 01915 11/14/2025 $1,000,000.00

Who are these people?
About AAN
The American Action Network is a 501(c)(4) ‘action tank’ that will create, encourage and promote center-right policies based on the principles of freedom, limited government, American exceptionalism, and strong national security. The American Action Network’s primary goal is to put our center-right ideas into action by engaging the hearts and minds of the American people and spurring them into active participation in our democracy.
[….]
“…engaging the hearts and minds of the American people…”
And apparently, by spending an ungodly amount of money.
October 3, 2025
AAN & One Nation launch advocacy ad campaign on Soros-backed government shutdown(WASHINGTON) — American Action Network and One Nation today launched a joint ad campaign blasting Democrats for causing chaos and dysfunction with their government shutdown over taxpayer-funded health care for illegal immigrants.
This is AAN and One Nation’s first joint advocacy campaign and underscores conservatives’ unified opposition to the shutdown.
The ad spotlights how the Soros-backed, far-left liberal group Indivisible was behind the pressure campaign pushing Democrats to force the government to shut down over their desire to provide taxpayer-funded health care to illegal immigrants.
[….]
Uh, that’s not “center” rhetoric in anyone’s book.
Via the Federal Election Commission:

Trump’s Big Bill Fight Boosts Political Ad Spend To $755 Million.
Jul 7, 2025[….]
AdImpact says nearly one in every four ad dollars targeting the legislation has come from Securing American Greatness. The Republican group spent more than $17 million on ads across 22 different congressional districts designed to put pressure on GOP lawmakers in battleground districts to go along with the President’s proposal. It did that by praising those Republicans who were onboard and criticizing Democrats against the bill.

Qualcomm gave $1 million to pro-Trump dark money group
By Walker Davis
July 30, 2025[….]
Since Trump’s election, Securing American Greatness has pivoted its spending to supporting Trump’s agenda. In May, the group launched a seven-figure ad campaign across targeted congressional districts praising Trump’s economic agenda. In June, it launched a second ad thanking Republican members of Congress for supporting Trump’s signature tax legislation, the One Big Beautiful Bill, and calling out Democrats who opposed it. Securing American Greatness, now run by Trump campaign alumni, is reportedly poised to defend Republican congressional majorities in the midterm elections.
[….]
Fancy that.
Pennies from heaven. Apparently.
