I ran across this group on Facebook and it looks very suspicious [View all]

It's called "I Back Democrat", which right of the bat looked off. When I first investigated, I saw an associated PAC, LLC and can't find it now. Everything posted there was pro-democratic, anti-Trump. No surprise there but it sure doesn't feel right given the name.
Anyone know anything about the group?
