Trump-Aligned AFPI Expands in DC

Here is more from Politico:

The Trump-aligned America First Policy Institute bought the historic Colorado Building at 14th and G NW — massively expanding its footprint in Washington just steps away from the White House.

— AFPI finalized the sale in January and paid $20 million for the building, which sits near the Treasury Building and the soon-to-be new East Wing of the White House. The group was behind much of the Trump team transition planning and is filled with Trump loyalists. It was co-founded by now-Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, and now-Education Secretary Linda McMahon was the group’s chair before she left for the Trump transition team.

— AFPI was founded in 2021, and its rise to prominence in Washington, both in influence and now in footprint, was swift.

 

Mr. Greg Sindelar is the current Interim President and and CEO of AFPI.  He is also the CEO of the Texas Public Policy Foundation (TPPF), an Austin, Texas based conservative think tank that expanded into Washington, DC in 2018.
