The filings reveal that ultra-wealthy conservatives have been rallying to support former President Donald Trump.

Restoration PAC raised a total of $51.8 million in the third quarter, with an overwhelming $48.8 million coming from Midwestern shipping magnate Dick Uihlein. Uihlein's contributions to Restoration PAC this year now amount to $58.9 million.
