Remember: Abusing IRS Laws Regarding Non-Partisan Charities, Mark Zuckerberg Poured $350 Million Into Effort to Turn Out the (Extremely Democrat) Urban Vote
Strange that Mark Zuckerberg wasn't interested in promoting voting everywhere. Just in Democrat-controlled precincts.
Few are yet fully aware of the direct impact Facebook and its founder had on the farce that was our 2020 electoral process. In the months leading up to November 3, tens of millions of dollars flooded into key urban areas in battleground states that had the power to, and in fact did, determine the outcome of the 2020 presidential election and some U.S. Senate races. This effort was conducted by an Internal Revenue Service-approved 501(c)(3) nonprofit that is barred under IRS regulations from explicitly providing support--financial or otherwise—to advance the agenda of one political party over another. This particular nonprofit is the Center for Technology and Civic Life (CTCL), run by progressives formerly associated with the New Organizing Institute. While the nonprofit typically had been operating on a budget of just over $1 million, inl 2020 Mark Zuckerberg and his wife contributed $350 million to the CTCL as part of the Zuckerbergs' overall strategy to promote "safe elections." But this wasn't about "safe elections" at all. It was Big Tech doing the big rig--using private, charitable donations to dictate to city and county election officials how to "manage" their elections. This Zuckerberg effort, according to a report by the Amistad Project, is "contrary to both federal law and state election plans endorsed and developed by state legislatures with authority granted by the United States Constitution."So the Tech Trillionaires not only rigged the election by blocking negative stories about Biden, but they straight-up bought votes. Or, more accurately: They bought " " " votes. " " " And I'm sure the government they bought for themselves will impartially consider these mega-monopolies' status under the antitrust laws.

I've read 30 states. I believe they were only skewed in races that were important to the agenda for the Dems...here in WA is was the BS bill teaching homosexuality in schools. Its approval rate was out of proportion to the rest of the vote.
Yeah, Tacoma is looking to get some attention. Rookies though. It will get more entertaining when the dickheads from Seattle and Portland move in.

Hey, remember when Disparate Impact was a thing? If you could show that "too many" black people were being arrested, it meant something something bad?
How's about someone run a "disparate impact" examination on how many black urban voters were already voting, and how many Zuckerface brought in with his efforts, and find out who was zooming who here.
I bet we'd get some really interesting data.

Not just him. The guy who studied and created a huge amount of information around the theory behind election manipulation through search (I forget his name at the moment) did a study of this during the 2020 campaigns. This is tough, because almost everything you get out of Google as a user is ephemeral. That is, it doesn't exist until the moment the page content is delivered, and it isn't recorded. Real-time search suggestions, results, notification banners, etc. come out of the bowels of the system and no records exist.
To study what Google was actually showing and to whom, he got volunteers who consented to allow him to install screen-reading software on their computers to track what Google actually showed them and when. There were a mix of conservative, liberal and undecided voters in the study.
What he found is that they showed *no* GOTV messaging to known conservatives or conservative-leaning undecideds. Plenty of GOTV messaging for the rest of the sample. They eventually reversed that when they got called on it.

All the way back in 2004 it came out that Democrat partisans routinely walk the streets in urban areas and give people things to go vote.
Nominally, I guess, it isn't paying for votes since you go with the "VOTE KERRY" guy to vote and then get a steak dinner or scratch cards or whatever because he didn't make you vote for Kerry but...yeah its public knowledge Dems have been paying people to vote for years.

My personal guess is that Zuck's money was spent on vote harvesting (which means people got paid to hand over votes--legitimate or not). The way it works is that the non profit then subcontracts to voter contact groups which then hire people with a specific quota of votes to obtain (legitimately or illegitimately). In blatant cases, they are paid per vote brought in and usually have to document it in some way. It was also most likely spent on providing and paying poll workers via private ngo funds and thus were handed as a gift package to these urban areas. Needless to say, these were purposefully mistrained.
Old term was walking around money and paying certain individuals to bring busses of voters that got some of that money or other things of value when they remounted the bus.

So Roberts is a no-go for the faux impeachment so leaky leahy will preside over it...
That seems unconstitional on it's face.
"When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside"
Now if Roberts doesn't want to do it, he can resign his Chief Justiceship.

What Zucc's motive?
Like it's clear, conscious or unconscious, these tech billionaires are increasing the temperature, driving hard left, and doing all they can to get the western world into a pretty scary place if we look to rhyming portions of history in terms of the rhetoric and intensity.
But why? Regardless of the system these plutocrats win. Their families will be 1%ers for generations to come. If anything, fundamentally changing the system increases volatility for them. Perhaps their Frankensteins continue to behave and enrich them, perhaps they turn on them.
Knowing this, why upset the preexisting order? Is it just a massive game of liberal one-upsmanship where they have thought through the obvious eventualities of their decisions? Or am I missing something that allows one to frame their behavior in a rational way that doesn't rely on puppeteering by Bilderbergs or Rothchilds?

My personal guess is that Zuck's money was spent on vote harvesting (which means people got paid to hand over votes--legitimate or not). The way it works is that the non profit then subcontracts to voter contact groups which then hire people with a specific quota of votes to obtain (legitimately or illegitimately). In blatant cases, they are paid per vote brought in and usually have to document it in some way. It was also most likely spent on providing and paying poll workers via private ngo funds and thus were handed as a gift package to these urban areas. Needless to say, these were purposefully mistrained.
Old term was walking around money and paying certain individuals to bring busses of voters that got some of that money or other things of value when they remounted the bus.

Regarding Roberts, the political system has defined Donald Trump as a citizen aka ex-president so Roberts cannot preside by the Constitutional wording. In addition, Trump's lawyers have already laid the groundwork for a challenge as the power to impeach private citizens is contrary to the wording of the constitution, violates a legal principle of justiciability because the only remedy impeachment allows is removal from office. Trump is already regarded as removed from office by certifying an election thus the actions by the Senate are untimely remedy (should have been done before term ended). See Chicago Picking and Steel v. Citizens for a Better Environment for a precedent regarding justiciability.
In addition, the history of impeachment in this country has not been regarded as a power dealing with private citizens because we have a judicial system for that--Congress has no judicial power over private citizens other than compelling them to show up and perhaps testify. So separation of powers issue then along with the prohibition of bills of attainder.

And money is the tool they use to get there. Which is why every time a conservative says something about one of these oligarchs losing some smallish percentage of their fortunes to advance a goal they are missing the point.

They might do it. They can do anything they want. But it is ultra-shitty and completely expected if they do. There is a reason representatives don't get a secret ballot - their constituents are entitled to know how they voted.
Since voters don't matter anymore, they might be drawing the reasonable conclusion that transparency doesn't matter, either. They wouldn't be wrong.
If that happens, he will be convicted, I am guessing 90/10. I suspect that if they had secret voting this time last year, he would have been removed from office by the pinhead assholes.
Star Chamber type stuff, there.

In addition, the history of impeachment in this country has not been regarded as a power dealing with private citizens because we have a judicial system for that--Congress has no judicial power over private citizens other than compelling them to show up and perhaps testify. So separation of powers issue then along with the prohibition of bills of attainder.

The purpose of this is to strip Donald Trump of any political power, now and in the future. Both the Democrats and GOPe are in agreement with this, so this farcical nonsense will continue.

There are plenty of conservative tech guys. The ones even semi-open about it got purged (hello Mr Eich).
Liberals help each other and don't give a shit about ability. Conservatives don't help each other and only care about ability. Which explains the modern tech world.

Call it a new religion if you want. The belief that humans have overpopulated the planet is a central tenet of this class.
That these leaders are sociopaths and/or autistic is the terrifying part. They look at basic math equations, where a planet of 6 billion sent only X amount of greenhouse gases skyward (bear with me here, I'm talking about THEIR logic, not mine), and a planet of 5 billion only X. So a planet of 1 billions is better still. A planet of 500 mil, still better. They don't care how we get there, they just "know" that's the ideal, heaven on Earth.

I doubt that the impeachment will be held to be proper if challenged in court. It is simply a Dem device to create a wedge issue for Republicans, please their donors, and doesn't cost them anything other than disrepute. Same as the first impeachment did. They knew it would not fly. It is simply something to distract the crowds as the economy tanks.
The Dems have their own version of virtue signalling which is demented and aimless to normal people.

I saw vid of some birds, I forget which, where the momma bird would push out of the nest, one of the younglings. Three hungry, completely helpless birds, and one gets shoved out. Why? Scarcity of resources.

Little appreciated fact is that for most high income earners in high tax blue states, their taxes rose (and maybe substantially). The Demofascists keep trying to reverse the SALT deduction limitation that Trump's tax reform bill imposed, for that reason.

I say this without a hint of snark:
I am envious of liberals. At worst, they get Trump, a man who cut their taxes and solidified their jobs without sending their kids to a new war.
At best, they get everything else, plus radical zealots willing to commit violence on their behalf, a billionaire class willing to spend hundreds of millions on their behalf, an entire media willing to lie on their behalf and an opposition party willing to look the other way.

I'd think again. It wasn't because Trotsky was a Czarist that Stalin hunted him down in Mexico and axed him to death. If the leftist wing really wins, they will go after their internal rivals fast and hard.

Something that has handicapped CONservatives is basically refusing to fight fire with fire. The truth is that FANG is very vulnerable to regulatory and political pressure. Unlike the old mass industries, they employ relatively few people, they are not uniformly distributed, and can easily be handicapped by modest changes.
Every state has to potential to basically destroy FANG power by simply requiring that these companies adhere to new state laws in their particular state and give private action power individuals. State level discrimination laws, public access and fee laws, etc. can be used to bring them to heel.

As to the previous thread, one thing I didn't see from beginning to end: Take the contract and do the work. Do it slowly, or be sure to include a slow-acting "mistake" for free. A ground wire not tightly snugged down, skimpy amount of pipe-dope on a set of threads, subtle razor slice into 7/8ths of a toilet's wax ring. Things that'll fail, some months down the road.
And if you do have to do the "re-work" for free, do so cheerfully, and with excellent customer service. Bag the positive online review, and go on to bother some other libtard, anew. They should never suspect that you caused 'em the trouble, in the first place.

I'd love some rogue IRS agent to look in to this, and kill 2 buts with one stone by taking out Zuck and those who were forcing his hand.

I think Gates found an adult "female" who is willing to touch his weener, and so basically whatever "she" tells him to do, he does.

Melinda was a daughter of Dallas hi-end royalty, and Bill was getting a lot of pressure from his mother, Mary Gates, to get married. Mary, who did a lot with local charities, passed a few years after that. As I recall from old local newspaper articles and a bit of gossip.

Hey, remember when Disparate Impact was a thing? If you could show that "too many" black people were being arrested, it meant something something bad?
How's about someone run a "disparate impact" examination on how many black urban voters were already voting, and how many Zuckerface brought in with his efforts, and find out who was zooming who here.
I bet we'd get some really interesting data.
Posted by: BurtTC at January 25, 2021 02:06 PM (oQ94s)
Using the rationale that only some 75-80 percent of REGISTERED DEMOCRATS vote D, I am convinced that inner cities don't vote at all - when I lived in Chicago I saw few to none in my district in the city. The huge swing to 90 percent D was voter fraud then, and the Zuck money just went to hiring more fraudulent ballot stuffing workers this time. Hence the absurd 110 percent voters in cities

Impeachment, again, is the indictment process. All it is, is a method of deciding whether or not a trial is warranted or reasonable. Or, politically viable.
Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at January 25, 2021 02:40 PM (KZzsI)
And since we must, I shall say, removal from office is NOT the only possible punishment for an impeached and convicted officeholder. It's just assumed to be the reasonably expected result, and probably has been for every judge or whatever who has been both impeached and convicted.

In my NJ town, real estate taxes are about $30,000 per million dollars of assessed value, so in your hypothetical example, only $10,000 of that $30K is deductible for federal tax purposes. Under the Democrats proposed reform, all of it , all of it would become deductible along with all the state income taxes the person you describe would also pay.
The Democrats proposal is a huge give away to wealthy blue state taxpayers.

Again, it is a) used but looks clean and well-cared-for, comes with the 18" barrel and the longer (don't remember length) turkey barrel. Comes with both the traditional and pistol grips. Oh, and a bag.

When I've lived in urban areas the voting places were empty when I'd go to vote.
That would of course be after or before work.
So either the people voting there don't work, or the people voting there don't actually exist.
I'm guessing the answer is some of *both*.

I think Gates found an adult "female" who is willing to touch his weener, and so basically whatever "she" tells him to do, he does.

Melinda was a daughter of Dallas hi-end royalty, and Bill was getting a lot of pressure from his mother, Mary Gates, to get married. Mary, who did a lot with local charities, passed a few years after that. As I recall from old local newspaper articles and a bit of gossip.

My extreme genius cousin took some type of private's computer classes with Gates when they were teenagers. Gates also took out one of my sorority sisters - once. I think she even may have faked a sudden illness halfway thru the date.

Why are all the tech gate keepers Leftist?
My guess: they want to head off any populist uprising that would end them up getting a tumbril ride.
Posted by: Deplorable Jay Guevara at January 25, 2021 02:26 PM (dkP80)
There's only danger of populism if you are acting against the people.
The answer is simple. As the company goes big, they hire lots and lots of admin staff. With Liberal Arts degrees from big colleges. These guys have been flaming Leftists of one stripe or another for about 2 generations now, and in the last few years have no ideas about history or civic responsibility.
The big bosses soon lose their libertarian impulses if they had any, and a lot did, as they become immersed in a soup of leftists, who revolt at any restraint on their power, and urge the boss to lead them not restrain them.

Ponder this: Clinton did NOT get impeached.

Yeah he did. He just wasn't removed from office after the impeachment.
Yeah, you're right. I'd forgotten about it.

Jill Leovy's book "Ghettoside" makes just that point: according to her, many inner city denizens have NEVER held a job, and live off of welfare and/or crime. They sleep most of the day, and go out clubbing and partying all night, returning home around dawn.
An amazing existence. It's a whole different world.

"The belief that humans have overpopulated the planet is a central tenet of this class.
That these leaders are sociopaths and/or autistic is the terrifying part."
Gates was on his vaccine power trip, killing children in Africa and India, iirc. Fits all too well with the current "Plandemic" and coming forced vaccines (which they claim has no permanent influence) ... but we can wait #2weeks for confirmation ... I'm still waiting a year on the vaccine, the Pfizer one not the Gates/Fauci one. Gives me time to watch more conspiracy theories.

It sounds like a nightmare to me. It is human nature to struggle, to overcome, and to achieve. Without that, self-esteem evaporates, which is probably why ghetto denizens are so touchy about being "dissed." They - quite rightly - don't respect themselves, and take umbrage at others offering them the same disrespect.

The term democrats use for this is "voter suppression".
They will also use this to claim vote fraud.... as opposed to actual vote fraud where ballots are illegally run through a machine multiple times or are just fake ballots to begin with.

Zuckfuck didn't buy elections. He didn't buy judges. He bought election judges.
His company will probably get broken up though. Now that the principle has been established that Social Media can censor presidents, Democrats won't put up with that.

I'm in Phoenix. I went to rent a uhaul. I go inside and there are 5 people in front of me: 1 couple (heterosexual), 1 guy with a family member - like a brother, and 1 other guy.
I'm listening to where they're saying they they all want to go and it's not Texas, not Florida and not Utah.
They're going to California. Or I should say they're going BACK TO CALIFORNIA. Phoenix/AZ in general has been inundated with people from Cali since 2016 when Trump won. They came in 2017 and registered to vote in the 2018 election which wiped out many republican state officials. They laid low and never got jobs. Its why AZ had a higher jobless rate and more hunger/more people on section 8 housing. They were paid to come and rent anything - single wide mobile homes, shared rooms in apartments, etc until the 2020 election and now they go home to California because they were paid for 3 years of their lives to turn Arizona blue.
Why else would anyone go to Cali now? Except the money has dried up and they've got to get back home.
