Dear Patriots,
Many situations are being revealed to us … despite The Fake News.
On all of these stories The Fake News is basically silent. This is why we so often implore you to push out the facts on all the ways the extreme, far left is cheating, suppressing, lying, spying, destroying and silencing at least half of all Americans.
AND….today, we have not even mentioned the hundreds of massive lies surrounding Covid-CCP.
1- More information on the massive campaign donation scam done by Democrats and Act Blue.
The Democrats Don’t Want You to Read This Article About Their (Alleged) Ginormous Money Laundering Scam
QUOTE: Public records show some Democrat supporters appear to have been donating multiple small amounts of money — sometimes dozens of times per day — that add up to tens of thousands of dollars.
Naturally, the Department of Justice seems to be too busy to look into what is likely a colossal money-laundering scheme. While the DOJ spends its time chasing “terrorist” parents who attend school board meetings and mother-daughter “insurrection” teams, individual straw donors are — apparently unwittingly — being used to make thousands of donations every year worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, if not more.
Here’s how it works:
• A person makes a donation to a left-leaning politician or organization.
• Bogus donors then continue to make donations — sometimes thousands of them — using the original donor’s identity.
• Many of the exploited donors are elderly and/or unemployed and have no idea their names and addresses are being used in the bogus donation scam.
The top “donor” in Arizona supposedly made 18,672 contributions in only three years, which breaks down to just over 17 donations per day. Another person allegedly donated more money than the value of her home. Still another Tuscon woman claims she did not make the 18,000 donations made in her name, to the tune of $170,000, despite what the Federal Election Commission (FEC) records show.
A New Orleans man, whose occupation was listed as “not employed,” allegedly made 847 separate donations, for a total of $18,276.54.
Janet Protasiewicz, a progressive candidate in the recent Wisconsin Supreme Court election, hoovered bushels of the funny money being donated in other peoples’ names. She won.
James O’Keefe of O’Keefe Media Group (OMG) and formerly of “Project Veritas” recently confronted some of the straw donors, many of whom appeared to have no idea their identities were being used to funnel millions of dollars to Democrat candidates.
A lot of the money went through the far-left donation organization ActBlue, whose website boasts of “raising” billions since 2004.
Fox News reported half of ActBlue’s 2019 donations came from people who were unemployed — and untraceable.
Some of the money was sent to lefty groups such as Black Lives Matter.
The burning question is this: if these people aren’t making thousands of donations every year, which seems wildly improbable, then who is?
Is the money coming from overseas? China donated barrels of cash — from “anonymous donors” — to build the Penn Biden Center in Washington D.C. The Center included offices for several members of the Biden family — offices in which classified documents were found.
2- Is it any wonder that conservatives have difficulty getting their point of view heard?
Government Is Marketing Censorship Tools To Big Tech To Gag Conservatives
QUOTE: The federal government peddled technology to Big Tech companies to assist them in censoring Americans’ speech on social media in the run-up to the 2020 election, according to emails Missouri and Louisiana uncovered in their First Amendment lawsuit against the Biden administration.
Specifically, the State Department marketed this censorship technology through its Global Engagement Center. In other words, our tax dollars not only funded the development of tools to silence speech that dissented from the regime’s narrative. They also paid for government employees to act as sales reps pitching the censorship products to Big Tech.
I’ve been “tasked with building relationships with technology companies,” Samaruddin Stewart, then a senior adviser for the State Department’s Global Engagement Center or “GEC,” wrote in an early-February 2020 introductory email to LinkedIn, allegedly requesting a meeting. According to the lawsuit, his email also suggested he would be reaching out to other social media companies interested in “countering disinformation.”
On March 9, 2020, Stewart again contacted LinkedIn, referencing an earlier verbal discussion and writing:
I’ll send information [to LinkedIn representatives] about gaining access to Disinfo Cloud — which is a GEC funded platform that offers stakeholders an opportunity to discover companies, technology, and tools that can assist with identifying, understanding, and addressing disinformation.
These two emails are explosive. Yet because they were revealed in two passing paragraphs of the 164-page complaint filed by Missouri, Louisiana, and a handful of other plaintiffs against the Biden administration, they — and their enormous significance — have been overlooked.
The Stewart emails establish that in 2020, federal government actors contacted social media giants to promote GEC’s Disinfo Cloud. GEC represented that this government platform provided “companies, technology, and tools” to “assist with identifying, understanding, and addressing disinformation.” Then it gave private tech companies access to Disinfo Cloud.
3- The war on religion is escalating within the government.
House Judiciary Committee Subpoenas Wray After Learning FBI Planned to ‘Develop Sources’ At Catholic Churches to Rat on Fellow Parishioners
QUOTE: The Republican-led House Judiciary Committee issued a subpoena to FBI Director Christopher Wray on Monday, after learning that the Bureau planned to enlist sources at so-called “mainline” (Novus Ordo) Catholic parishes to inform on purportedly radicalized fellow parishioners.
In his letter to Wray, the committee’s chairman, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), revealed for the first time that the FBI “relied on information derived from at least one undercover agent to produce its analysis and that the FBI proposed that its agents engage in outreach to Catholic parishes to develop sources among the clergy and church leadership to inform on Americans practicing their faith,” Jordan wrote. “This shocking information reinforces our need for all responsive documents,” he added.
The new information came to Chairman Jordan and Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) in response to repeated document requests regarding the Bureau’s interest in spying on traditionalist Catholics.
“We have repeatedly sought information from the FBI relating to a January 23, 2023 document generated by the Richmond Field Office entitled ‘Interest of Racially or Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremists in Radical-Traditionalist Catholic Ideology Almost Certainly Presents New Mitigation Opportunities’ (FBI’s Richmond document),” Jordan wrote.
The congressman described the FBI’s March 23, 2023 response as “substandard and partial,” with many “significant redactions” that “prevented the Committee from fully assessing the content and context of the documents.”
Nevertheless, the limited information the committee received revealed that the FBI had relied on information derived from at least one undercover employee, who sought to use local religious organizations as “new avenues for tripwire and source development.”
4- Our beautiful American cities are all but in ruins these days as a result of decades of Democrat “leadership” and failed policies.
The Left has killed our great cities
QUOTE: It’s not just Chicago that has become a war zone. Portland, Seattle and San Francisco were not so long ago the crown jewels of the West Coast. They were said to be progressive cities that worked. No more. Now, they are unlivable. San Francisco is overrun with homeless people on seemingly every downtown street corner, feces on the sidewalks and trash everywhere.
In Portland, major businesses are pulling out in the aftermath of the takeover of the radical anarchists during COVID-19. Crime is so rampant that Walmart recently said “adios,” shutting down its last store. Rains PDX, a clothing store in Portland, shut down last November after a string of break-ins made it impossible to stay open.
For the first time, Seattle is losing population. To be “progressive,” Seattle is imposing a massive capital gains tax increase — socking it to the rich. So they are fleeing the city and Washington state.
One of the nation’s top demographers, Wendell Cox, has been analyzing the just-released Census Bureau data on county population. He found that “during the late 2010s and before the pandemic, population growth and domestic migration transitioned toward smaller metropolitan areas from larger ones. That outmigration is accelerating.”
The nation’s 10 largest counties have lost more than 1 million residents since 2019. The biggest losers have been the counties that are home to New York and San Francisco and Chicago’s Cook County. Even Los Angeles County, the nation’s most populous county, with just under 10 million people, is now contracting.
Welcome to the real-world impact of progressivism. Instead of worker paradises, the Left has transitioned our once-shining cities into slums, murder zones, homeless encampments and boarded-up stores. They have become cults of economic and political quackery — and tragically, few Democrats have the courage to speak out. They are worried about being called racists when the reality is that the victims — of terrible public schools, high murder rates and an anti-business creed — are the minorities they say they care so much about.
The three poisons of America’s leftist cities are 1) high taxes, 2) schools that don’t educate and 3) crime running rampant.
