The #money raised by #MAGA Inc. during the first 6 months of the year is almost 2X the amount collected by the #RNC, which is subject to contribution limits. #JeffreyYass donated $16 million to the super #PAC & #BenHorowitz & #MarcAndreessen combined to donate an additional $11 million. His group also collected several seven-figure contributions from #crypto companies, an industry that #Trump has embraced, & $5 million from a crypto entity co-founded by the #OpenAI chief #SamAltman.

#Trump’s super #PAC is sitting on about $200 million that it can spend against his rivals, giving a term-limited president a never-before-seen amount of #power in his party’s finances and future.

In the first half of 2025, Trump’s group, #MAGA Inc., collected about $177 million from the likes of #ElonMusk, Trump’s erstwhile ally, the #TikTok investor #JeffreyYass & the #SiliconValley execs #BenHorowitz & #MarcAndreessen, according to a filing on Thursday with the #FEC.

“Trump is going to keep TikTok going,” he said [speaking of himself in the 3rd person]. “Whereas Biden & Harris have no idea what it means." [#Harris is killing it on #TikTok.] #Trump had initially led a charge in Washington to ban the app, which is owned by the Chinese company #ByteDance, but completely reversed his position earlier this year [after a large donation from #JeffreyYass who owns a 15% stake] while vying for the youth vote.
