Follow the Crypto now tracks presidential spending, including spending routed outside of the crypto super PACs.

Earlier this month, Ben Horowitz pledged to make a "significant" donation to Harris. He's since contributed $2.5 million to BlackPAC, a left-leaning PAC focused on Black voter turnout. They support Harris, but not exclusively.
Recent expenditures by BlackPAC include support for Sherrod Brown, a candidate that crypto super PAC Fairshake has spent $40 million to oppose.
Horowitz has contributed $22 million to Fairshake.

Felicia, listen to me. We've traced the funding... it's coming from inside the house. Just get out of that house!

@molly0xfff isn’t this the type of comprehensive data we should get from the FEC?
Are they mandated by laws passed by *elected officials* to NOT track it?
-
@johnb my website pulls from the fec. the data is there, it's just not super accessible
-
@molly0xfff oh! https://api.open.fec.gov/developers
If I wanted to put it on a map, do you provide any aggregated JSON endpoints or is it best just to query their API directly ?
Caching daily snapshots to inform a map visualization would seem sufficient (or read-thru cached as-needed)
-
@johnb their apis probably, unless you happen to want this specific map https://www.followthecrypto.org/states

@molly0xfff
If Trump is elected, this unretouched photograph of Marc Andreesson will be illegal: -
@molly0xfff stupid foreigner question : isn't there some rule about max contributions?
(My country has none , also no rules about publishing donations at all, so.. not a dig, just confused)
-
@telepyleia there is a limit to how you can contribute directly to a candidate, but a 2010 Supreme Court decision enabled unlimited donations to super PACs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_United_v._FEC
