#CorruptGOP: their donors, MOC, SCJs, judges, elected officials, govs... GOP donor & the SF Giant's part owner, Charles Johnson got an appraisal valuing his mansion at $130M *price higher than any publicly reported home sale in the US up to that time & 5X the $26M he/wife had reportedly paid 14 years earlier to buy & restore the prop. The IRS granted the FND tax-exempt status -allowed them to collect >$38M in tax savings from the estate over 5 years-. #GOPGreed #GOPFraud https://www.propublica.org/article/how-private-nonprofits-ultrawealthy-tax-deductions-museums-foundation-art?taid=64c26a5d84f2a80001e73b7b&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter

This isn't an aberration,đŠ¸states often misappropriate funds that are meant for the vulnerable & economically stressed (MS/MO/FL/TX...) & redirect them to ingratiate their donors: OK Spent Millions of Federal Dollars Incorrectly: Of the $10M Gov Stitt allocated to the Stay in School program, $6.5M didnât align with the programâs purpose, which was to help families impacted financially by the pandemic continue to send their children tođ¨private school. #GOPFraud #GOPSabotage https://oklahomawatch.org/2023/06/27/auditor-oklahoma-spent-millions-of-federal-dollars-incorrectly/
The Senate can usually stop McCarthy's bills from passing their abhorrent bills, but GOP House leaders are delegitimizing & discrediting vital agencies, institutions & federal officials. House Republicans are attacking the CISA for its role in tracking & responding to mis- & disinformation. The HJC GOP staff just released this report characterizing CISA's work as unconstitutional censorship. "CISA must be reined in." #GOPFraud #GOPSabotage #GOPTraitors https://judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-subsites/republicans-judiciary.house.gov/files/evo-media-document/cisa-staff-report6-26-23.pdf

Michael Roman, a top official in #TFGâs 2020 campaign, is in discussions with the office of the SC Smith that could soon lead to him voluntarily answering Qs about a plan to create slates of pro-Trump electors in key swing states that were won by Biden. If Roman ends up giving the interview -prosecutors working for Smith, it 'd be the 1st known instance of coop. by someone with direct knowledge of the so-called fake elector plan-. #GOPLies #GOPFraud https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/23/us/politics/michael-roman-trump-jan-6-jack-smith.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
Fox News & other RW media outlets likely won't report their innocence & great harm #TFG/enablers caused them: A report affirms that conclusion & offers one of the most thorough debunking of the claim to date. âAll allegations made against Freeman & Moss were unsubstantiated & found to have no meritâ -report says.

When the IRS is properly FUNDED, it works. The IRS collects revenue to make the USG function. Republicans purposefully underfunded the agency for years so their wealthy donors could underpay: (legal & illegal) methods. Dems must ensure that the IRS has the funding & manpower so they can go after TAX CHEATS, so honest Americans pay only their fair share. The taxpayer experience this year âvastly improvedâ compared with 2022. #GOPFraud #RepublicanLies https://www.cnbc.com/2023/06/21/taxpayer-experience-this-year-vastly-improved-compared-to-2022-report.html
#DeathSantis $82.5M: DeSantisâs super PACs arenât just working closely with his campaignâtheyâre taking over entire core campaign functionsđ¨. The super PAC supporting his nat. bid for pres. is the Never Back Down PAC -already organizing events for him on the campaign trail (tactic favored by C Fiorina in the 2016 pres. GOP primary.) & it's structuring, staffing, & building out an entire ground game op. on his behalf -seemingly unprecedented in a pres. primary": #GOPFraud https://www.rawstory.com/ron-desantis-2024-2661651959/
Paid to spread LIES, it's not a good business model *most Dem volunteers volunteer: By Labor Day, Never Back Down aims to have ~2,600 trained canvassers in the 18 early nominating states, many with hotel rooms & rental cars, iPads & evolving scripts at $20 -22/hr. Distinct from the massive volunteer armies assembled by Dems in past cycles.

Only 20 GOP Reps voted against censuring Rep Adam Schiff *for telling the truth. This vote demonstrates how radical the party has become.

#DeathSantis' antics aren't working politically bc they're based on LIES: He's trying to out-Trump Trump on 'American Carnage' panic, but Florida has more crimes that 'woke' states. He, like Trump, wants voters to be scared senseless about crime & paints a grotesque vision of a country ravaged by violence. He's condemning Trump for the most decent things he did: expedited approval of the Covid vaccine & the First Step Act. #GOPLies #GOPFraud https://www.thedailybeast.com/ron-desantis-wants-you-to-be-scared-shtless-about-crime-dont-be?ref=home?ref=home
