Many are calling out right-wing politicians for aiding and abetting the coup attempt in the Capitol, but what about their donors? The Center for Media and Democracy (CMD) has outlined in great detail how the Kochs’ PAC machinery has invested over $15 million on the political careers of all 13 US senators who initially publicly indicated their desire to block the confirmation of the presidential election of Joe Biden in Congress. (After the coup attempt, some dropped their objections. Even so, seven voted to object to the results in Pennsylvania, and six in Arizona; in the US House, 121 Republicans voted against certifying the Arizona vote and 138 against the Pennsylvania vote.)
