Reminder that the FEC tracks donations to political candidates and PACs, including those operated by the NRA. Listings are down to the individual, including organizations they’re affiliated with: https://www.fec.gov/data/
ProPublica has a convenient itemizer here, which links to useful filings, known dark money, and known graft: https://projects.propublica.org/itemizer/
For those with the means, it might be worth searching orgs you buy from to see if you should take your business elsewhere.

Apparently there’s a browser plugin (Greenhouse) that started to mine these data. More work could be done to make these data easier to process.
It would be really cool if someone figured out a way to go from donation data to organization name and exposed that data in page content, say.
