House Majority PAC raises record sum ahead of midterms

House Democrats’ biggest outside allies have set a new fundraising record for the organizations that will help boost the party ahead of the 2026 midterms.

House Majority PAC, House Democrats’ main super PAC, and its associated nonprofit raised a combined $121 million in 2025, more than they have in any previous non-election year dating back to HMP’s 2011 founding.

The pair of groups raised a combined $81 million in the final six months of 2025, doubling its haul during the first six months of the year — a sign of donors’ growing optimism for the party tied to its overperformance in a slate of off-year elections. The numbers were first shared with POLITICO.

“As Democrats continue to expand the map and build momentum for the 2026 midterms, we could not be more excited to announce our record-breaking fundraising in 2025,” said House Majority PAC President Mike Smith. “We look forward to taking back the House in 2026.”

when Elon, on his own, never mind the other billionaires contributions, will make up any cash deficit difference, and probably throw in an extra $100 billion to make sure MAGA keep control of the government in 2028, and far beyond.

Muskrat and his billionaire friends, can spend and have spent millions in state/local political events (whether races or referendums - e.g., spending $30 million on the Wisconsin state Supreme Court race) and have lost every one.

He has enough money to still consider it a good ROI but it would result in diminishing returns when trying to go granular, and his ignoring of his own companies has resulted in financial losses there (despite his hand-picked boards propping up his pay packages).

He handled Reagan well. But, MAGA and cankles have me on the edge doubting everything.

I'm almost as old as Tip was, and I'm damn sure I want to be around long enough to see everything cankles puts up, torn down.
