Soros-Backed Dark Money Network Funneled $500,000 into Montana’s “Fake Republican” PAC Conservatives4MT

According to these public records, the Western Futures Fund sent $250,000 to Way Back PAC and another $250,000 directly to Conservatives4MT — for a combined total of $500,000 .
The Fake Republican Group Conservatives4MT has already spent $622,883.21 on independent expenditures this cycle. Among the biggest recipients are:

David Bedey – $43,342
Chris Rindal – $38,136
Llew Jones – $27,657
Shelley Vance – $26,081
Ken Walsh – $25,873
Brad Barker – $24,358
Linda Reksten – $24,655

…and many others.
The Western Futures Fund itself received millions from the Sixteen Thirty Fund (1630 Fund) , a major left-wing dark money organization that raised $282 million in 2024 alone . Major funders include George Soros and Swiss billionaire Hansjörg Wyss.
This money has been used for independent expenditures supporting many of the same moderate/RINO candidates the Montana Republican Party has labeled “Fireweed Frauds.”
Gallatin County Republicans have been warning about this coordinated scheme for months. The MTGOP’s recent resolutions calling out the “Fireweed Frauds” and the Progressive Dirty Money Network have now been proven correct with hard financial records.
Montana voters deserve full transparency. When hundreds of thousands of dollars from Soros-linked dark money groups are flowing into Republican primaries, it is an organized effort to hijack our party from the inside.
We urge every conservative in the Gallatin Valley to look closely at who is really behind the ads and mailers in the June 2 primary. Demand honesty and vote for candidates who actually stand for the Montana Republican Platform.
Vote Republican on June 2 — and keep Montana red.
