Tech Giants Resist Disclosure Of Who Paid For Political Ads. Facebook, Google and the like. Leading the charge against disclosure are…lawyers who worked for Hillary Clinton. Because protecting billions of dollars of their clients is more important than uncovering which foreign actors helped to deep-six her candidacy. I cannot make this stuff up.
Trump Pledged $25K To Fallen Soldier’s Father. Didn’t Send The Check. Until Called On It. This story is so bizarre on so many levels. Apparently the victim’s father groused that all the survivor benefits money went to the mother. Think Trump would have sent $25 K to the mother if the dad had gotten the survivor benefits? Did he pledge $25 K to other families? Is it his money or someone else’s money? Possibly taxpayers’ money? Just more weirdness from the mentally-ill Prevaricator In Chief.
Bizarro Politics In Virginia. Trump Outreach operative for Gillespie’s gubernatorial campaign feels snubbed, and quits. A ‘colorful evangelical preacher’ from SW Virginia. Shades of the Marino State Senate campaign. I’ll say now what I said then: Campaigns that lose key operatives to resignation just weeks before the election aren’t generally winning campaigns.
Why Seattle Is Relieved That Part Of Amazon Is Heading Elsewhere. Be careful what you wish for. BTW, check out what Philly is offering. Can you imagine the economic dislocation and gentrification that would result? BTW, giving America’s wealthiest corporation a billion dollars in tax breaks defines ‘The Delaware Way’. An economic obscenity.
This Voting Fraud Commission Is Fraudulent. D members were never told that Rethug operative recently charged on child porn violations was even working there. A black guy who claimed that white voters in Mississippi were being discriminated against. Again, I can’t make this stuff up.
Trump And Campaign Supporters Pushed Russian Propaganda Days Before Election. Direct from the troll farms to the electorate from Trump and Conway.
Senate As Nursing Home. Frail and disoriented Senator not retiring. Thad Cochran of Mississippi.
How Big Pharma Buys Congress. BTW, we know what they got for their money when they bought (and continue to buy) Tom Carper. He is ripe to be defeated in a primary, if only someone will run.
What do you want to talk about?
