Findings

  • After the 2022 Bradley Impact Fund mega-grant of $27.1M, both Bradley and Conservative Partnership Institute zeroed out their AFL giving and were replaced by Donors Trust, whose grants to AFL scaled 127x from 2023 ($129,250) to 2024 ($3,191,074), a structural pivot from a named ideological foundation to a fully anonymizing donor-advised-fund sponsor
    notus.org
  • Neil Corkery operates BELOW the 990 reporting threshold across the Leo network, bookkeeper at Marble Freedom Trust, CFO at CRC Advisors, former president of Catholic Association Foundation, former leader of The 85 Fund, and yet NEVER appears in our ein_990_officers table
    propublica.org
  • Bradley Foundation pays its own Chairman's investment firm, Patrick English chairs Bradley AND runs Fiduciary Management Inc which manages Bradley's $1B+ endowment
    projects.propublica.org
  • Eugene Scalia joined the Bradley Foundation board on 1/18/2022, exact date in the 990-PF
    projects.propublica.org
  • Carl Helstrom left Bradley Foundation VP for Programs on 1/31/2023 and became Chairman of State Policy Network, an exact dated job-to-job pipeline between two top dark-money entities
    projects.propublica.org
  • CPI's largest 2024 grant was $6,042,000 to 'Foundation for Accountability Integrity & Research in Elections Fund', Cleta Mitchell's own FAIR Elections Fund (which she founded and chairs)
    grassley.senate.gov
  • Bradley Foundation paid America First Legal $27.1M in 2022, nearly 3x AFL's own reported 990 revenue ($9.6M in 2023), strongly suggesting money flowed through additional vehicles
    notus.org
  • America First Legal lost Bradley Impact Fund and CPI as named grantors after the 2022 mega-grant, and was rebuilt on Donors Trust (a DAF) which scaled grants to AFL 24.7x from 2023 to 2024
