EDITORIAL | Cornell Won’t, We Will

Xavier Becerra's average donation is $59. He had 11,737 unique donors. 96% of donors gave less than $100. The most common occupation of Becerra's donors is teachers! I'm a teacher & gave him under $100 because I'm not a rockefeller—or a Steyer. Steyer had only 229 donors averaging over $575,800.

I think a good strategy for your non-leftist social media presence (ie everywhere but here) is to give this photo - the remains of Danish soldiers returning in coffins after being killed in America's war in Afghanistan - as wide an audience as possible. Remind people who we're betraying
Three coffins wrapped in Danish flags are carried by 4-6 soldiers each; a cargo aircraft is in the background
