American Oversight

American Oversight is a big money donor to te Democratic party.

American Oversight started investigating an alleged Trump-Ukraine connection in May 2019, more than two months before an alleged “whistleblower” filed a complaint claiming that the president was “using the power of his office to solicit interference from a foreign country to investigate one of the President’s main domestic political rivals.” In a statement, the group noted:

> American Oversight announces the Parallel Investigations Initiative to lay the groundwork for this potential surge in congressional oversight activity. We have begun proactively tracking oversight requests made by both the chairs and ranking members of key congressional committees and, in many cases, we’ve already submitted parallel FOIA requests for the same information. …
>  The Trump administration won’t know what hit them. Independent FOIA litigation paired with aggressive congressional oversight creates a nightmare for federal agencies because of the different levers litigants and members of Congress can pull to enforce their demands.[1]

Austin Evers, a former senior counsel in the Obama State Department, founded the organization in March 2017. The group claims to be non-partisan, but most of its staff have worked for Democrat administrations, lawmakers, or groups, Breitbart News reported. The organization has managed to keep its donors hidden from the public.

One founding member, Melanie Sloan, is a former federal prosecutor and Capitol Hill staffer who worked for now Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and then-Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.), said in an interview with USA Today that the group is organized as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and does not plan to disclose its funding sources.

Conservative watchdog Influence Watch has noted the group was founded after liberal “mega-donors” met at a swanky Florida retreat in January 2017 to plot ways to disrupt the Trump administration using litigation. The retreat was sponsored by former David Brock, founder of Media Matters.
