Both roles are confirmed on CPI's own staff page and in InfluenceWatch's biography of her. EIN is one of the affiliated initiatives CPI lists in its own materials, alongside America First Legal (Stephen Miller), the Center for Renewing America (Russell Vought), the State Freedom Caucus Network, and several others. The three Compass entities Mitchell is the named controlling figure in formation paperwork for three Delaware companies, all operating from CPI's address at 300 Independence Avenue SE. Compass Professional Inc. (2021): Mitchell is Officer and co-founder. Compass Legal Group LLC (2021): Mitchell is Managing Member and beneficial owner, working alongside attorney William Klimon. Compass Property Management LLC (2022): Mitchell is Principal and Manager. All three companies appear as paid vendors in CPI's 2022 and 2023 IRS Form 990 filings, with combined payments exceeding $2.4 million in a single year per POLITICO Influence reporting from November 2024. The Valid Vote and EagleAI link Documented.net reported in March 2024 that Compass Legal Group is counsel to Valid Vote, the nonprofit that manages the EagleAI NETwork, a voter-roll-challenge software tool that operationalises mass challenges against names on voter rolls. The legal-services relationship sits inside the same controlling-figure orbit as the Compass entities themselves: Mitchell is both the controlling officer at the law firm and the head of the political initiative (EIN) that has championed voter-roll-challenge programs. Adjacent affiliations Beyond CPI and the Compass cluster, Mitchell sits on the Bradley Foundation board, is a co-founder of the Public Interest Legal Foundation, has documented ties to the Council for National Policy, and hosts the Who's Counting? podcast at whoscounting.us. She was a member of Trump's 2020 election challenge team. The 2021 founding wave of the Compass entities is concurrent with her CPI appointment, with the formation of the Election Integrity Network, and with her departure from the law firm Foley & Lardner. What remains to source The diagram and prose above are conservative readings of the documents in the research vault. Items that would strengthen the investigation include: the specific filings establishing Mitchell as the controlling figure of the three Compass entities (Delaware corporate registration documents); the EIN's specific 501(c) registration (it operates inside CPI's 501(c)(3) rather than as a separate filer); and the financial flows between EIN, Valid Vote, EagleAI, and any donor or vendor entities. Those items are listed in the source documents but not all are linked to specific filings yet.","record":{"facts":10,"primaryFacts":10,"sources":81},"evidenceClasses":{"primary":41,"derived":26,"reported":14},"findings":[{"id":78,"statement":"DHS gave a June 2025 briefing to Cleta
