Crypto Billionaires Donate Millions to PAC Targeting Senatorial Candidate Katie Porter
• Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss donated $4.9 million to PAC Fairshake, which is running attack ads against Katie Porter, a CA senator candidate
• Other major crypto players like Ripple and Coinbase also made big donations to Fairshake in late 2023
• Fairshake ads criticize Porter for taking money from Big Pharma, Big Oil, and Big Banks via exec donations
• The ads have been seen 6+ million times on YouTube; their aim is unclear but Porter called them “funded by shady crypto billionaires”
• With $85+ million in donations, Fairshake and its affiliates seem intent on influencing 2024 elections, starting with the CA Senate primary
