Six stories, one dataset.

Each card opens a different corner of the same network. Start with a vendor paid by both parties, a consultancy tied to one side, or a single senator's full web — the rest unfolds from wherever you begin.

The flow

From PAC to vendor in three layers.

Money rarely moves in a straight line. A $10M contribution to a super PAC usually splits across a dozen committees and fans out to scores of vendors before anything appears on TV. We trace every hop.

  • 1
    Inflows. Individual and corporate money enters PACs, JFCs, and party committees. Hundreds of thousands of transactions per cycle.
  • 2
    Transfers. Money moves between committees — leadership PACs to campaign committees, joint-fundraising splits, party transfers.
  • 3
    Disbursements. Committees pay vendors: ad buys, consulting, direct mail, payroll. Who ends up paid, and how much.
About the data

Public filings only. No proprietary feeds.

Every figure on this site comes directly from the FEC's public bulk data exports — the same files the FEC publishes weekly to anyone who asks. No scraped documents. No editorial judgment in the numbers.

Name variations like "Mothership Strategies" and "Mothership Strategies LLC" are collapsed into one entity by explicit rule, not by guess, so a single vendor isn't counted twice.

Non-partisan by design. Both parties run through the same pipeline. The tool surfaces structural patterns. It doesn't draw conclusions — you do.
