WATCH: A search warrant alleges a North Carolina dark money group spent more than $80,000 on strip clubs, a beach rental, Topgolf, and more.
Cardinal & Pine’s Dylan Rhoney breaks down how this spending could be attempting to influence policy.
This is the latest from an investigation into a group called Greater Carolina, according to reporting from WRAL. The story first appeared in the media in 2024, when reports revealed that Republican state lawmakers took a trip to Kentucky and toured bourbon distilleries.
A Reddit poster who worked at one of the locations later described the lawmakers’ behavior.
