Political network and funding analysis
ACPI traces the networks, money and organizations behind candidates and policy, from school boards to state houses to Washington, and turns sourced evidence into decisions.
Why now
Democrats retook the House and the Senate, and DSA-backed candidates won from city hall to the U.S. Senate. Most voters didn't knowingly choose socialism. But in rejecting Republicans, they handed a governing majority to a coalition with a growing socialist wing that nobody explained to them.
The people ACPI set out to study are no longer candidates. They are about to hold office, and the new Congress is sworn in on January 3, 2027, almost exactly 60 days after Election Day. That is the window this pilot fills.
The problem
Modern influence runs through lawful domestic institutions: nonprofits, fiscal sponsors, media platforms, universities and issue coalitions. The records that reveal it are usually public. The failure is that nobody persistently joins the fragments, separates fact from inference and keeps the record over time.
The pilot
A 60-day, legally supervised investigation into who finances DSA-backed and allied candidates, which organizations support them, and how that influence reaches public institutions. We start with what DSA says in its own documents, quoted accurately and dated.
How we work
ACPI supports lawful protest, free expression and political participation. Our concern is whether documented actors use concealed financing, deception or undisclosed coordination to redirect legitimate movements.
Why this is personal
"I have witnessed firsthand in Latin America the erosion of democratic institutions, the indoctrination of generations, and the weaponization of legitimate grievances. I have watched a country fall. I refuse to stand by and watch it happen here. Because if America falls, the West falls with it."
"On September 11, 2001, I was the watch officer in the command center at U.S. Central Command. I activated the Crisis Action Team that morning, and I lost two friends at the Pentagon. Twenty-five years ago, I never could have imagined Osama bin Laden's 'Letter to America' going viral with young left-leaning Congressional candidates who hold it in adoration. Thirty-three years in uniform taught me that the threats that hurt us most are the ones nobody connected in time. ACPI exists to connect them here at home, before it's too late."
"In 2020 I ran testing at the Republican National Committee, and in 2024 my team built an AI polling tool that called the Senate and presidential races with remarkable accuracy. Data tells you what is happening. It doesn't tell you who is behind it. ACPI puts the two together, so we stop getting surprised on election night."
