That basically happened in swing states in 2024, and then the ad disappeared like it never existed. The ad said it was paid for by “RBG PAC,” borrowing the name and credibility of #RuthBaderGinsburg even though she had been dead for years. The goal was simple: persuade abortion rights voters that #DonaldTrump was safe on abortion and that voting for him was still compatible with being pro choice.Meta’s public ad data shows roughly $20 million in digital spending behind this campaign, with about $350,000 spent pushing this specific version mostly to women under 44 in Pennsylvania, Michigan, North Carolina, and Wisconsin. After the election, disclosure filings revealed the money came from the #ElonMusk Revocable Trust. The timing mattered because federal rules allowed the real donor to stay hidden until after Election Day. Then the PAC dissolved and its online footprint vanished. Legal. Effective. And designed to avoid real time accountability.#CampaignFinance #DarkMoney Election2024 AbortionRights SwingStates Disinformation Meta Democracy PoliticalAds VoterManipulation—Credit Johnny Harris @johnny.harris Follow @jonzie__1 for more.Help this information get to more voters. 🇺🇸 A well-informed electorate is a prerequisite to Democracy.—Thomas Jefferson https://www.instagram.com/p/DUekUUdjPVs/?img_index=5&igsh=b3F5MzZ5M3lwdXpl
