ActBlue is not the target of this article - in fact they are called out in it as one of the groups trying to fix the problem.

Quote from the article in question outlining how ActBlue worked with the author to help crack down on deceptive fundraising practices after they were exposed in prior articles.

first image in your camera roll that makes you laugh out loud

A person asks how to turn their emotions off, a second person mishears them and starts giving instructions on how to turn off emojis. The second realizes their error, but the first encourages them to keep going because they’re willing to try anything at this point

IBM had it right in 1979.

A computer can never be held accountable, therefore a computer must never make a management decision

Thomas’s Constitution doesn’t even require a pretext. The Federal government can openly discriminate whenever it wants, in his view. He specifically cites Chinese exclusion acts and DC school segregation as allowable policies in his view in his Mullin concurrence.

I do not think he’s talking about just discouraging voters. He’s made his intentions pretty clear.

The problem isn't 'parents like you', it's the parents who will abuse their children for questioning or coming out and the kids who will attempt suicide if they're outed against their will.

Screenshot of a statement by Eugene Vindman about his vote in favor of a Republican bill that would force schools to out trans kids:
“As a dad to two public school kids, I believe parents must be included in their children’s decisions in school,” Vindman said in a statement.

“Whether it’s what they put on their school forms, their academic performance, or athletics, parents need to be at the center because that is the key to every child’s success,” he said. “There are other policies in the bill I don’t agree with and will work to change, but I voted today to make sure parents like me can continue to support their kids at school, and I believe to my core that is what our kids need.”

Again, for the people in the back: Kamala Harris was Right.

Screenshot of text: "Kamala Harris was right. On October 29, 2024, she told a crowd that had come to hear her speak on the Ellipse, “In less than 90 days, either Donald Trump or I will be in the Oval Office, On day one, if elected, Donald Trump would walk into that office with an enemies list…Donald Trump intends to use the United States military against American citizens who simply disagree with him. People he calls ‘the enemy from within.’ This is not a candidate for president who is thinking about how to make your life better. This is someone who is unstable, obsessed with revenge, consumed with grievance, and out for unchecked power.”

Trump has since proved her right."

This should have been the end. Our inability or unwillingness to hold these insurrectionists accountable will haunt us forever.

The person who filed the original complaint is registered to vote at an address that doesn't exist. When does that investigation start? kansasreflector.com/2025/08/20/p...

So, when are the police going to investigate the complainant for voter fraud? According to the Kansas voter registration form, if you submit a false voter registration application you may be convicted and sentenced to up to 17 months in prison.

I could literally build a whole workshop, buy all the tools, source the wood, build and finish and still come out ahead on the cost. And, it would probably take the same amount of time to get to the final product.
