I am so happy that you are going to continue this list. This is one of my favorite things that you do. Please keep holding these corporations accountable and make them defend their position. It's awesome to see them trip over their own words and make excuses for why they are resuming donations in some cases. Excellent work!
I don't understand how so many companies feel like they will be immune if these authoritarians seize power. Without equally upheld laws, you're prisoner to the whims of The Party.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for this essential work.
It is somewhat heartening that the Dems are (just) now calling-out the anti-democracy efforts of the GOP. With your work, this can also call-out corporations who are supporting the destruction of our democracy.
This is so important, though it strikes me that it's impossible to live in this country and completely avoid all the companies that donate even indirectly to the coup-makers. We can try, though, and by posting this info, we can keep public attention on it. Thank you.
I am sick of media referring to this as a riot. It was a carefully orchestrated attack on the elected legislative branch, the Congress of the US Government, by seditionists hell bent on overturning the election on behalf of the loser Donald J. Trump.
I am disappointed you too have fallen victim to the 1%'s rhetoric which works to their benefit in ownership of many of the MSM outlets.
Be the independent journalist, not another Magpie in the flock.
The grim philospher Thomas Hobbes described life in a state of nature as "solitary, poor, nasty, and short." We are in a spiral downward where the election deniers and vote deprivers would have us wind up in such a state of constant worry and crisis. Corporations such as Boeing have depended on government largesse even as they scoff at government oversight in such things as construction of their aircraft. We know how that turned out. To now add to that nasty view of public safety by supporting those who would collapse the industry and even the economy to get their way says that the lessons of the past are lost when profits are in between.
It's understandable that Boeing and other corporations would "scoff at government oversight" when for decades they supported the efforts of legislators and executive branch appointees from both parties to weaken those very institutions tasked with corporate oversight.
So much amazing press in the last 24 hours as we look back (almost) one year to what “lawmakers” said before/during/after the riots that breached the Capitol, and remember how it felt to watch from afar. Thank you for inserting this important puzzle piece.
It was Bad, but then Trump said It Wasn't, so suddenly It Wasn't, and like all things Trump repeats, it became true enough to his supporters, and the spineless GOP bent to his deranged will.
Not feeling quite that hopeless today, J. Maybe it’s also having just finished Elijah cummings’ we’re better than this, published by his widow Maya Rockeymoore - his voice may be stilled but his words and example of courage live on.
Please continue revealing the truth of what is going on in corporate decision making. I see an analogy to the voting rights issue: dishonesty about greed for the first, and dishonesty about extreme anti Black racism in the other. Your work is SO important. And, you ARE making a difference!
I would like to thank companies I do business w/ that have stopped donating...and scold those who have not stopped. If you could provide useful contact info, it would make this easier. thanks.

More proof (as if we needed it) that the perception that they will make money is more important for these corporations than the country surviving.
I don't understand how so many companies feel like they will be immune if these authoritarians seize power. Without equally upheld laws, you're prisoner to the whims of The Party.
They're not thinking about it on that level. It's ALL about profits and the way to maximize those profits. Nothing else matters.

Are they truly excluding the NRCC and the NRSC when they say they are not funding the objectors? The wording doesn't convince me of that?

Wonderful reporting, as usual.
Great reporting, keep up the good work and the pressure.

"congressional votes are “by definition, part of the peaceful transition of power.” "
