In this episode of Current Affairs Unfiltered, Paige sits down with Adam, founder of the Just Future Fund, a progressive super PAC with an unconventional mission: to flip the political system on its head by using its own tools against it. Together, they unpack the murky world of campaign finance—explaining the difference between PACs, super PACs, and dark money groups—and why the Citizens United decision changed everything.
Adam shares what drove him, a political outsider, to launch a super PAC instead of a nonprofit, and how Just Future Fund aims to punch above its weight by investing in smarter, more authentic political messaging. They discuss voter distrust, donor fatigue, the power of influencer-driven campaigning, and the fine (and legally fuzzy) line between coordination and plausible deniability. With insights into how political money moves, where it actually goes, and why transparency is so hard to find, this episode is a mustlisten for anyone curious (or skeptical) about where politics meets money.
