BILLIONAIRE DOMINIONIST SHITBAGS WHO HAVE FINANCED MUCH OF THE CURRENT CRIMINAL REGIME.  “DADDY” AND “DAUGHTER” (MM-HMM...) EVIL SHITS GIVING BILLIONS TO REPUBLIKKKAN TERRORISTS.

EVIL HAS A BIG FOREHEAD!  NO, REALLY...LOOK AT ALL THE TRULY EVIL PEOPLE IN THE NEWS RIGHT NOW...INCLUDING TRUMP’S BEST BUDDY EPSTEIN (WHO DIDN’T KILL HIMSELF!)  

THEY HAVE FUCKING FOREHEADS THREE STORIES  HIGH!

OH, AND “DADDY” OWES THE IRS OVER $7 BILLION!

THEY HOLD COCKTAIL PARTIES WHERE THEY AUCTION OFF JUDGESHIPS TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER.  THEY ARE VILE AND DISGUSTING INHUMAN MONSTERS!

In case you missed this segment, here is the full interview with journalist Jane Mayer that ran 10/11/19.  She talks about the Right Wing Government Accountability Institute, a nonprofit primarily supported by large donations from Robert Mercer.  Steve Bannon, whom you likely remember from the early days of Trump’s takeover of the White House, was the Founder of GAI.  

Jane Mayer is my favorite journalist.  She cowrote one of my all time favorite books:  Strange Justice, the full story of the Clarence Thomas hearings conducted by the Senate Judiciary Committee.  Mayer, imho, is the best journalist in my lifetime.  

Finally, someone calling out Trump for who he is and what he’s doing. Finally, Constitutional Checks and Balances after Republicans turned a BLIND EYE for over 2 years.

"I view this president and his conduct as the greatest threat to the democratic system and to the constitutional government since the Civil War”, Nadler

Nadler said in an interview with radio host John Catsimatidis on AM 970 in New York. "Whether it’s threatening the newspapers or threatening the judiciary or calling people who criticize him treasonous.”

Nadler, one of the Democratic chairmen set to probe various aspects of the Trump administration, said the House will soon be holding hearings including into "abuses of power" and "obstruction of justice."

“Clearly ... there have been major abuses of power, major obstruction of justice, obvious violations of the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution," he said. "All of these have to be looked at."

Never Forget

The Cambridge Analytica scandal is a huge deal. It has major implications for how far personal data can spread from social media to private individuals and companies, and it brings up questions about what people are using this data for, as well as if their intent is malicious.

To catch people up (I’m copying some of this wholesale from the article because it’s complicated and I don’t want to fuck it up): 

Cambridge Analytica acquired personal psychological data of about 50 million people from researcher Aleksandr Kogan. He gathered that info through a personality quiz app that mined information from those who downloaded the app and their friends. Cambridge Analytica created 30 million profiles about voters using this information.

Cambridge Analytica worked with the Trump campaign during the 2016 election, the Brexit “Leave” campaign, and Ted Cruz’s 2016 presidential campaign (prior to working with Trump in the general). Kushner would brag about his connection to Cambridge Analytica. Rebekah Mercer sits on the board of Cambridge Analytica, and her father Robert Mercer invested heavily in the company. Both have ties to Steve Bannon and have helped fund and shape Breitbart.

The CEO of Cambridge Analytica, Alexander Nix, has bragged about blackmailing and bribing public officials around the world, and was recently suspended from the company.

This is all to say that Facebook is in a lot of trouble for being so cavalier about this data being improperly obtained, and Cambridge Analytica is currently being investigated by the FTC, UK authorities, and potentially Congress.
