Editor’s Note: An earlier version of this list included Lowe’s. Upon further review, we found no clear evidence linking Lowe’s leadership to direct support of Trump or MAGA-aligned causes. We’ve replaced Lowe’s with Ford Motor Company, which donated $1 million to Trump’s 2025 inauguration.
Between elections, the loudest voice you have is your spending. Corporations hear cash louder than any chant, petition, or post. Some of the brands flooding your feed and shelves are pumping money, influence, or oxygen into far-right politics—and counting on you not noticing. Let’s notice. Let’s act.
This is a tactical list. It’s not exhaustive, and it’s not about “purity.” It’s about leverage. If a company—or its owners—use your money to empower extremism, pull the plug.

The Top 10 To Rethink Right Now
Walmart — Donates millions to GOP causes and candidates. They paused briefly after Jan 6, then went right back to bankrolling election deniers. Everyday low prices, high cost to democracy.
Home Depot — A co-founder’s mega-donor status keeps them on boycott lists. Every hammer and screw builds the far-right machine.
Ford Motor Company — Donated $1 million (plus in-kind support via vehicles) to Trump’s 2025 inauguration—making its first such contribution in years.
Uline — Billionaire owners pour tens of millions into MAGA candidates and causes. Every shipping box funds extremism.
Goya Foods — CEO became a Trump cheerleader and turned pantry staples into political statements. Your beans, their politics.
AT&T — The sugar daddy of election deniers. Also quietly bankrolled One America News. Your phone bill, their propaganda.
Comcast (NBCUniversal) — Publicly promised to stop funding insurrectionists, then funneled millions back to them. Corporate hypocrisy on demand.
General Motors (GM) — EV ads scream “progressive future,” but their PAC checks scream “backward politics.” Green marketing, red money.
Chevron — Fossil profits fuel fossilized policies. They don’t just drill oil—they drill democracy, too.
McDonald’s — Donated a cool million to Trump’s inaugural. Every Happy Meal comes with a side of right-wing cash.

Good info but alternatives to home depot and lowes would be very helpful as they are typically the only game in town. In my case the Ace Hardware is owned by a Christian Nationalist and I’m not shopping there!!
Have been boycotting all of Amazon I.e. Prime tv, store, Kindle, Target, Home Depot, Lowe’s. Never go to Walmart, the richest family in America does not need my money. Any ordering of items online, I go to the product website directly. Do not care if it costs a little more. And if it is too much, do I really need it? Something we all will be doing in the very near future as supplies, products dry up. Also gave up FB, Instagram, Twitter years ago, have never missed.
