HistoryAmerica First Policies was founded by several people, including Nick Ayers, a Republican consultant who is regarded as Mike Pence's top political adviser,[5], Rick Gates and Brad Parscale.[6] Trump Presidential Campaign donor Rebekah Mercer disagreed with Parscale about the direction of America First Policies. Mercer wanted America First Policies' data engine to be Cambridge Analytica, which would have effectively given her organizational control and potentially influence over the Republican Party. If Mercer had control over the organization's database and the money, Mercer could have led the organization to sway President's supporters against the President.[7]DonorsIt was reported in May 2018 that CVS Health, Dow Chemical, and Southern Company had donated a combined $1.6 million to America First Policies.[8][9] ExpenditureActing as a "dark money" Super PAC, as of May 2018, America First Policies had spent $2 million on electioneering in 2018 campaigns.[6] Targeted campaignsOn June 23, 2017, Republican Senator Dean Heller was targeted with an advertising campaign over his opposition to the Obamacare repeal bill. Heller was considered to be vulnerable in the 2018 election[10], and ultimately lost to Democratic challenger Jackie Rosen.[11] Racism, anti-Semitism and bigotryAmerica First Policies' Director for Advocacy, Carl Higbie was forced to resign as head of Corporation for National and Community Service (an organization which runs AmeriCorps, Learn and Serve America, Senior Corps, and other national service initiatives) to which he had been appointed by Donald Trump, after making racist and inflammatory comments on a radio talk show about black Americans, Muslims, women, LGBT people, veterans suffering from PTSD and immigrants, which included advocating violence. Higbie also pushed the false Birther conspiracy about Barack Obama.[12][13] In a 2018 tweet, Higbie apologized for his comments.[14] On May 10, 2018, it became public that the group's policy advisor, Juan Pablo Andrade, was a Nazi sympathizer, who was recorded on snapchat saying that "the only thing the Nazis didn't get right was that they didn't keep fucking going."[15] Andrade has been on Trump’s National Hispanic Advisory Council, Trump’s National Diversity Coalition and the Trump campaign as a surrogate.[16] He also wrote for The Hill, but the outlet dropped him when it learned of the video and its contents.[17] Later that month, it was reported that John Loudon, a policy advisor for the group, used inflammatory and derogatory language against women, Muslims and Democrats.[18] He suggested that Obama was a Kenyan-born Muslim.[18] In May 2018, CVS Health and Dow Chemical announced that they would not contribute more money to America First Policies, citing racist and bigoted comments by the staff at America First Policies.[9] This announcement followed a report stating that three Fortune 500 companies, including CVS Health and Dow Chemical, had contributed to America First Policies.[19] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://corponline.dcra.dc.gov/BizEntity.aspx/ViewEntityData?entityId=4177555|title=America First Policies - Initial File Number: N00005573092|website=Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs|publisher=Government of the District of Columbia|access-date=January 4, 2018|url-access=registration}} 2. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/01/31/512690691/trump-political-advisers-now-raising-money-for-his-america-first-agenda|title=Trump Political Advisers Now Raising Money For His 'America First' Agenda|work=NPR|accessdate=May 22, 2017|date=January 31, 2017|first=Jim|last=Zarroli}} 3. ^{{cite news|url=https://apnews.com/77133d470c634a458b3198063af4a14b|title=Trump advisers start 'America First Policies' nonprofit|website=Associated Press News|accessdate=May 22, 2017|agency=Associated Press|date=January 30, 2017|first=Julie|last=Bykowicz}} 4. ^{{cite news|url=http://time.com/4718902/white-house-staff-katie-walsh-departure|title=White House Deputy Chief of Staff Leaves for Pro-Trump Group|work=Time|accessdate=March 30, 2017|date=March 30, 2017|first1=Zeke J.|last1=Miller|first2=Philip|last2=Elliott}} 5. ^{{cite news|last1=Thrush|first1=Glenn|title=On Senate Health Bill, Trump Falters in the Closer's Role|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/27/us/health-care-bill-trump-pence.html|newspaper=The New York Times|date=June 27, 2017|access-date=December 23, 2017|first2=Jonathan|last2=Martin}} 6. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://www.sacurrent.com/the-daily/archives/2018/05/15/after-ushering-the-trump-circus-into-the-white-house-brad-parscale-is-turning-his-megaphone-on-san-antonio|title=After Ushering the Trump Circus Into The White House, Brad Parscale Is Turning His Megaphone on San Antonio|first=Sanford|last=Nowlin|publisher=}} 7. ^{{cite news|url=http://highline.huffingtonpost.com/articles/en/mercers/|title=The Blow-It-All-Up Billionaires|work=HuffPost|accessdate=May 22, 2017|first=Vicky|last=Ward|author-link=Vicky Ward|date=March 17, 2017}} 8. ^{{Cite web|url=https://maplight.org/story/southern-co-cvs-dow-chemical-funding-trump-dark-money-group-tied-to-racist-anti-semitic-views/|title=Southern Co., CVS, Dow Chemical Funding Trump Dark Money Group Tied to Racist, Anti-Semitic Views|website=maplight.org|language=en-US|access-date=2018-06-02}} 9. ^1 {{Cite news|url=https://edition.cnn.com/2018/06/01/politics/kfile-cvs-trump-advocacy-group/index.html|title=CVS Health and Dow Chemical will no longer donate to pro-Trump advocacy group|last=CNN|first=Andrew Kaczynski, Chris Massie and Nathan McDermott,|work=CNN|access-date=2018-06-02}} 10. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.politico.com/story/2017/06/23/pro-trump-group-to-target-gop-sen-heller-over-health-care-bill-239911|title=Pro-Trump group to target GOP Sen.
