Some were related to the Koch machine but most were just Republican insiders who swing wherever the money is coming from, with no specific personal allegiance. The fact that Paul Ryan even quit in 2019 is a sign of DC political weakness within the Koch infrastructure because he was a bought and paid for Koch guy. The most success they have really had was with the Heritage project, and that is going to fucking hurt, but it's already done and gone until the next Republican president And even then the major thing that enabled the Koch machine to exist to the extent that it does was the Citizens United case, which was not specifically a Koch project.
And they've been gone for two years and many of those policies are still in place and some have been expanded. It's almost as if it's not specific to Koch, but more of an alignment with his class interests?
