Where the trail ends
What the IRS sees
Stand Together Inc. has given $20M to super PACs across the cycles on this site, but no Form 990 for it has reached the IRS's public files yet. New groups get up to a year and a half after their first tax year ends to file, which is longer than an election.
Where the cheques went
A nonprofit that does not have to say where its own money came from. The trail ends here. Each gift is split the way the group that received it split its spending between winners and losers, so a $10M cheque to a group that spent 80% on losers counts as $8M on the losing side.
