A group called Democracy Defenders, the newest political action committee (PAC) launched by former staffers of former President Barack Obama, as well as Democrats who moved to impeach former President Donald Trump, has just been established to preemptively delegitimize any concerns Republicans might raise about election integrity.

The group anticipates that Trump and his allies will repeat their large-scale attempt to undermine confidence in the election before Nov. 5 and then work to overturn election outcomes by challenging ballots and results in court in the days and weeks after voting.

Jim Messina, Obama’s 2012 campaign manager, chairs the PAC, which can raise and spend unlimited sums of money. The PAC also includes Norm Eisen, a key figure in the first impeachment attempt against Trump, and T.J. Ducklo, who previously worked for President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

“We are not messing around with this, too much is on the line and we have seen what Trump is capable of when he loses an election fair and square,” Messina said in a statement. “We are going to be stepping up and providing resources directly to state parties and allies on the ground to make sure every American can cast their vote with confidence and without interference.”

While Democrats claim they need to “protect” the election from Trump, with Messina saying they won’t let Trump “undermine” the election, Democracy Defenders’ launch appears to be a preemptive strike against any attempts to ensure integrity and transparency in the voting process.

With an initial $10 million budget, the group is set to bombard the courts and media with resources to counter any Republican efforts to question the election results, to allow the Harris campaign, especially in down-ballot races, to prioritize their resources to election turnout, and persuade voters, especially when it comes to paid media.

“The threat to American democracy has only grown more intense since Donald Trump encouraged a violent mob to stop the peaceful transfer of power nearly four years ago. Trump and his allies are already working to undermine the fundamental right we have as Americans to vote and to have our vote counted fairly,” Messina claimed.

PAC to launch $60M advertising campaign to boost Trump’s campaign

Trump’s supporters are not left behind as a super PAC called Right for America is launching what is expected to be a $60 million advertising campaign to boost the former president’s campaign right after Labor Day.

According to the New York Times, the media buy is the latest addition to an already busy and costly advertising season that is set to see over a half-billion dollars spent to shape voters’ final impressions of Harris and Trump.

Right for America has already raised tens of millions of dollars but waited until the fall rush to air any advertising. The group had $38 million on hand as of June 30 and had not spent its money earlier.

“For the past four months we have worked hard to raise close to $60 million,” said Sergio Gor, who runs the group and is a friend of the Trump family. “We have now started spending in the key swing states and will do everything we can to ensure President Donald Trump is returned to the White House.”

Many of the PAC’s biggest donors are members of Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s club in Florida. The group’s main funders have been Ike Perlmutter, the longtime chair of Marvel Entertainment, and his wife, Laura, who have put at least $20 million into the super PAC. Right for America has received fund-raising help from Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida, who has headlined finance events for the group in Monterey, Beverly Hills, Seattle and at the Republican National Convention.

The advertisements are set to be seen predominantly on cable and network television, with the remainder on digital and radio advertising, plus a few small contributions to other outside groups. One new ad, called “Laughing Matter,” aims for Harris’ record on the border, calling her “dangerously liberal.”

Another group, MAGA Inc., has received more than $100 million this cycle from businessman Timothy Mellon, an heir to the Mellon banking fortune and has $56 million in television ads booked through Election Day. Another, Preserve America, is expected to take in more than $100 million from Miriam Adelson, a conservative megadonor, but has not made most of its fall reservations yet, with only $7 million booked through November.

Democrats, on the whole, have $315 million reserved for television and radio over the final 10 weeks of the campaign, compared to $140 million reserved by Republicans, according to AdImpact.
