Saw a TV ad by the
American Edge Project,* and wondered who they are.
No Wikipedia entry.
Found a Washington Post article about them from May of 2020 which explains that:
"Facebook is working behind the scenes to help launch a new political advocacy group..."
"American Edge formed as a nonprofit organization, and last month, it registered an accompanying foundation, according to incorporation documents filed in Virginia. The setup essentially allows it to navigate a thicket of tax laws in such a way that it can raise money, and blitz the airwaves with ads, without the obligation of disclosing all of its donors."

What
really struck me was the ads that appear on this WP article web page; Facebook KNOWS you're looking at an article about them!
This shows just the first two ads that are on the page; I'm seeing
TEN of the same ad throughout the whole article.
