The point is simple: in the wake of the violence at the Capitol, corporations are halting small PAC donations, but many of them & their execs have said nothing about cutting off funding to the much larger super PACs that Republican lawmakers really rely on https://www.dailyposter.com/p/the-slush-fund-bankrolling-the-insurrectionist
