    Apparently you can send baldy orange loser a message. It's very therapeutic.

    I come from Wapakoneta, Ohio.

    I forgot to send any money though.

    And their begging letters will get bounced.

    Hmm there's an idea.

    Do a "I am the son of the late President Sonny Abacha, and I have 50 billion dollars that I need to move with your help...." etc.

    The c u n t would probably answer it.

    Trump 'money bomb' scheme raised millions from unwitting donors

    Practice that used pre-checked boxes and obscure design on fundraising emails condemned as ‘unethical and inappropriate’
    Donald Trump’s 2020 presidential campaign used pre-checked boxes and obscure design on fundraising emails to wring millions of dollars out of unwitting supporters, detonating a “money bomb” which allowed the Republican to compete against Joe Biden in the last months of the race.


    The practice, pursued by the campaign and WinRed, a for-profit company, was detailed in an extensive report by the New York Times on Saturday. It is legal, but Ira Rheingold, executive director of the National Association of Consumer Advocates, told the paper it was “unfair, unethical and inappropriate”.


    Another expert quoted by the Times said such “dark pattern” digital marketing “should be in textbooks of what you shouldn’t do” in politics.


    The “money bomb” did not bring victory, as Trump lost the electoral college by 306 votes to 232. He also lost the popular vote by more than 7m ballots.


    But, the Times said, “the recurring donations swelled Mr Trump’s treasury in September and October, just as his finances were deteriorating. He was then able to use tens of millions of dollars he raised after the election, under the guise of fighting his unfounded fraud claims, to help cover the refunds he owed.”


    Trump still claims his defeat was caused by massive electoral fraud. It was not, as a succession of court cases concluded.


    After escaping conviction in his second impeachment trial, for inciting the Capitol riot of 6 January, the former president is free to run for office again. He continues to seek donations, leading to friction with the party he dominates.


    The Republican WinRed operation was conceived as a response to ActBlue, an online fundraising platform set up by Democrats to attract small-dollar donations.


    As the Times reported, refunds to donors are not unusual and can be made when individuals give more than the legal limit. The paper said that at the end of 2020, after Trump’s defeat, the Biden campaign and Democratic bodies made 37,000 online refunds worth $5.6m.


    The Trump campaign and the Republican National Committee made more than 530,000 refunds, returning $64.3m.


    “In effect,” the Times wrote, “the money that Mr Trump eventually had to refund amounted to an interest-free loan from unwitting supporters at the most important juncture of the 2020 race.”


    Jason Miller, a Trump spokesman, told the Times: “Our campaign was built by the hardworking men and women of America and cherishing their investments was paramount to anything else we did.”


    The Times reported that the practice was used for the Georgia Senate runoffs in January and continues to be used by the Republican party.


    It also detailed distressing experiences affecting Trump donors hit by surprise deductions and consequent trouble with banks and credit card companies.


    Victor Amelino, a 78-year-old from California, donated $990 in September. It recurred seven times for a total of almost $8,000, the Times said.


    Calling the Trump campaign and the RNC “bandits”, Amelino told the paper: “I’m retired. I can’t afford to pay all that damn money.”

    Wait, what, a man with an exhaustively documented history of lies and fraud--a man who pardoned someone who stole from his base--also duped and stole from his own supporters!?

    Nobody could've seen that coming.

    Of course not. Idiots like "slick" are barely high school educated dropouts on their the best day. They are too stupid to see that they are getting reamed. That imbecile thinks that regressive taxation through exploitation of tax law and other right wing imbecilic policy will not affect him, but there is a dam that is about to dump tons of toxic waste on his trailer park and Texass was totally dark due to massive deregulation. Unbridled capitalism just leads to chaos and robber barons.

    Yet these white trash imbeciles have been programmed by their oligarch overlords to actually believe that they are the better option.

    Fucking masterstroke by the oligarchy. They actually turned a large part of the racist white south into their subservient slaves.

    How true.
    Why do you think all these reality shows are so popular? They sit in front of the idiot box snickering and thinking, "look at them, I guess we are not so bad" It makes their sad existence a little more tolerable. Nothing to strive and aspire for, simply tools for the smart operators.

    That's true though. Although I'm not sure if it was ever regulated in the first place.

    Who needs elections? (when we have corporations...)


    ‘Our focus was to get Trump out of office’: CNN technical director admits network is ‘PROPAGANDA’ in new Project Veritas VIDEO

    An undercover video released by Project Veritas shows CNN technical director Charlie Chester revealing how the network purposefully painted Joe Biden in a positive light to get Donald Trump out of office.

    In a conversation with a Project Veritas journalist, Chester can be seen on video admitting CNN worked to make Trump look “unfit for office,” while simultaneously portraying Biden as healthy to combat fears the 78-year-old was not up to holding the presidency.

    “Look what we did, we [CNN] got Trump out. I am 100% going to say it, and I 100% believe that if it wasn't for CNN, I don't know that Trump would have got voted out…I came to CNN because I wanted to be a part of that,” Chester says in the video.

    He also detailed bringing in “medical people” to tell a story that was “all speculation” about Trump’s hand shaking.

    “We were creating a story there that we didn't know anything about. That's what – I think that’s propaganda,” he said.

    Chester revealed the opposite was done for Biden during the 2020 presidential race.

    “We would always show shots of him [Biden] jogging and that [he’s] healthy, you know, and him in aviator shades. Like you paint him as a young geriatric,” he said, saying the strategy was a “deflection” of his age and numerous public gaffes.

    CNN ran numerous stories about Trump’s health during the presidential race, including one from Brian Stelter with a headline reading: ‘It’s now up to journalists to get to the truth about Trump’s health’.

    Another from outspoken Trump critic Jim Acosta in October read: ‘Trump’s doctors paint a rosy – but vague – picture of his health during Covid-19 treatment’.

    (If Trump has a chance in 2024, it will be the lefts fault. Please don't be epic douchbag lefties. Its probably already too late to ask)

    Trump To Restart MAGA Rallies As Early As May, Calls Potential 2024 Opponent 'Total Loser'

    During the interview with Bongino, Trump repeatedly claimed he won the 2020 election. When asked if 'good vaccine news' might have swayed the election in his favor, Trump replied: "no, I won the election anyway. I ran two elections I won them both, as far as I'm concerned, and we'll see about a third."
    "One thing I will say" Trump added. "I believe that if the vaccine came out before the election the press would have made a very small deal about it ... When it came out two days after the election the press made it like the biggest story ever."


    Trump has spent most of his first nearly 100 days out of office golfing at his West Palm Beach golf course just down the street from his residence at Mar-a-Lago. On Mondays and Tuesdays, he discusses the week ahead with aides - including which GOP candidates he'll meet with and consider endorsing.





    Former President Donald Trump is preparing to resume MAGA rallies as early as May, according to CNN, and told podcast host Dan Bongino on Wednesday that he would wait until after the 2022 midterm races to announce whether he'll run for president again.

    According to CNN, Trump and his advisers have been in discussions to restart Make America Great Again (MAGA) rallies - where he'll lambast his political enemies, including Alaska RHINO Lisa Murkowski (whom he's vowed to travel to Alaska to campaign against), and presumably Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan - his ostensible GOP primary rival should he choose to run in 2024.

    During the Bongino taping, Trump called Hogan a "total loser," and said he's giving the idea of running again "very serious consideration. "



    "This guy, I've been watching him, he's a total loser. He hasn't been a good governor," said Trump, adding "I think he wants to run. I think I would give him less than a zero per cent chance, OK?"
    As far as timing, Trump continued: "I think probably the most appropriate time would be right after the '22 election, that's my opinion. Could do it sooner, but I think right after the election would be good, especially if you have a good election."


    Bongino asked Trump how he's enjoying life as a private citizen again, to which Trump pivoted back to politics - saying "It's a different kind of life, but still very political because of the endorsements. Everyone comes and they all want the endorsement, more than they've ever wanted an endorsement. It's never been an endorsement that's meant so much, which is an honor to me."

    "It means victory," he added.

    Trump's Facebook ban to stay in place, board rules

    "The Board found that, in maintaining an unfounded narrative of electoral fraud and persistent calls to action, Mr. Trump created an environment where a serious risk of violence was possible," the board wrote in a statement.


    • Just for fun.

    World Press Freedom Day Roundtable with Secretary Blinken
    ANTONY J. BLINKEN, SECRETARY OF STATE
    APRIL 28, 2021
    In commemoration of World Press Freedom Day, May 3, Secretary Antony J. Blinken and FPC credentialed journalists participate in a roundtable to discuss the state of press freedom and internet freedoms around the world. Elevating the promotion and defense of democracy and human rights is a foreign and domestic policy priority for the Biden-Harris Administration.  In this vein, the United States is concerned by governments’ increased efforts to silence independent media and otherwise suppress freedom of expression, including by efforts to control access to information via Internet shutdowns, slowdowns, or censorship and the politically motivated targeting of journalists for repression. Access to information and ideas makes for more prosperous, democratic societies.
