“ We are going to compete at every level.

A memo laying out plans for the spending names North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper and Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro, both Democrats, as allies whom the group will defend. It names two Republican senators, Cory Gardner (Colo.) and Martha McSally (Ariz.), as targets for defeat.
Everytown leaders say the money will be targeted broadly to include organizing, paid advertising and voter registration in a variety of contests, from state legislative races to competitive U.S. House and Senate contests and the presidential campaign.
“The gun safety movement has never been stronger. We have millions of supporters, and we are going to seize the moment,” said Shannon Watts, another co-founder of Everytown who runs its subsidiary grass-roots arm Moms Demand Action. “We are going to compete at every level.”
The political strategy is being directed by Charlie Kelly, who ran House Majority PAC in 2018, a Democratic super PAC that coordinated independent spending to retake the House. He said the gun issue has continued to grow as a top-tier concern for voters, particularly in suburban communities where Democrats have been making their biggest gains since Trump’s election.
At a presidential candidate last fall, Bloomberg was quoted as saying:
“In 2020, about seven or eight swing states will decide the election. And I can just tell you that Everytown, Moms Demand Action, Students Demand Action, and my super PAC, Independence USA, are going to launch the most massive effort on gun safety that our country has ever seen. And we are going to win races up and down the ballot.”
Bloomberg and his henchmen love to paint the NRA out as the enemy, claiming that the NRA blows through more money to buy elections, but in reality, the NRA didn’t even spend $16 Million in the 2018 election, with their biggest contributions being to the national Republican PACS and the Marsha Blackburn campaign, who got a paltry $15,000. Compare that to Bloomberg’s pledge of $80 Million during that cycle.
That’s despite having upwards of $400 Million on hand for the NRA, which still apparently runs in debt. It begs the question: What is the NRA spending all of their money on?
Between 2016 and 2018, Bloomberg personally gave $250,000 each to five different candidates.
But Bloomberg isn’t the only one targeting the 2nd Amendment, as the WaPo article continues:
Giffords, a gun regulation group founded by former congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.), has also launched a 2020 political program, while her husband, Mark Kelly, mounts a Democratic campaign to take McSally’s U.S. Senate seat.
The group spent $750,000 on ads after a recent shooting, calling for the Senate to vote on expanding background checks to include private sales. The group also hosted a forum for presidential candidates and a video series highlighting the positions of the Democratic candidates for president.

Senator Chuck Grassley
Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee Ron Johnson and Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee Chuck Grassley Tuesday sent a letter to Attorney General Bill Barr asking him to declassify four footnotes in Horowitz’s report on FISA abuse.
The Senators stated that the classified footnotes contradict what is publicly available in Horowitz’s report related to Crossfire Hurricane, the CI investigation opened into Trump’s campaign in July of 2016.
“We have reviewed the findings of the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) with regard to the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane investigation, and we are deeply concerned about certain information that remains classified,” the GOP Senators wrote. “Specifically, we are concerned that certain sections of the public version of the report are misleading because they are contradicted by relevant and probative classified information redacted in four footnotes. This classified information is significant not only because it contradicts key statements in a section of the report, but also because it provides insight essential for an accurate evaluation of the entire investigation.
Grassley and Johnson continued, “The American people have a right to know what is contained within these four footnotes and, without that knowledge, they will not have a full picture as to what happened during the Crossfire Hurricane investigation.”
The Senators did not give specifics, however, TGP reported last week that Horowitz stealth-edited his FISA abuse report to cover up his discrepancy about the FBI’s use of spies into Trump’s campaign.
The IG report on FISA abuse has two statements on the FBI’s use of CHSs into the 2016 Trump campaign that contradict each other.
In chapter 10 of the original report, the IG claimed that the FBI didn’t use any CHSs to infiltrate Trump’s campaign prior to the FBI opening Crossfire Hurricane in July of 2016.
However, in the next chapter of the original report, the IG contradicted itself and stated that the Crossfire Hurricane team “tasked several CHSs and UCEs during the 2016 presidential campaign, which resulted in multiple interactions with Carter Page and Papadopoulos, before and after they were affiliated with the Trump campaign, and an interaction with a high-level Trump campaign official…”

In the edited version of Horowitz’s report, the IG claimed the Crossfire Hurricane team used CHSs on Carter Page and Papadopoulos during and after the time they were affiliated with the Trump campaign.
The edits still don’t address the discrepancies in Horowitz’s report.

West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice has officially invited the counties in Virginia that have declared themselves to be “Second Amendment Sanctuaries” to join their state.
Earlier this month, the West Virginia Senate adopted a resolution to remind Virginia residents that they have a standing invite — from 1862 — to become part of West Virginia.
“If you’re not happy where you’re at, come on down,” Justice said during a press conference with Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr. on Tuesday. “If you’re not truly happy where you are we stand with open arms to take you from Virginia or anywhere you may be. We stand strongly behind the Second Amendment, and we stand strongly for the unborn.”
Democrats took over the Virginia government for the first time in two decades last year and have been trying to pass new gun control laws to massive protests. At least 95 counties in Virginia have declared themselves “sanctuaries” against laws that infringe upon the Second Amendment, such as Red Flag laws.
The “Second Amendment Sanctuary” movement that began in Virginia has gone national — with hundreds of counties and localities across the nation now declaring themselves to be standing against any new gun laws in their prospective states.
“If you’re out there, no matter where you may be, Virginia, or wherever you may be as an individual or as a business or whatever,” Justice added during the conference, “West Virginia is waiting for you with open arms.”
The Hill tallied up the new areas joining the movement and found that at least 83 counties nationwide joined the movement this month, following 131 last month — even in states such as Mississippi which do not have any new gun control measures on the table. Their report noted that the counties joining the movement over the past couple of months join hundreds of others who have already made the declaration.
“Localities declaring themselves as sanctuaries hail from a broad range of states, from those seen as having stronger protections for gun owners such as Kentucky and Texas to those seen as having stricter gun control laws such as Illinois, New Jersey and Oregon,” the report explains.
Gun Owners of America, a pro-Second Amendment organization, has been helping counties to draft legislation and organize citizen petitions.
“While Governor Justice and I have always shared great pride for our states, what’s happening in Virginia right now is a tragedy in the making. Democrat leaders in Richmond, through their elitism and radicalism, have left a nearly unrecognizable state in their wake, and they are using their power to strip away the God-given rights held by every person in the state, despite their due protections under the U.S. Constitution. Count me in on this push for counties to leave Virginia,” Falwell said during the press conference. “If the groundswell of support grows for counties to leave, what’s also certain is that they will be joining the Mountain State miracle that Governor Jim Justice has engineered with the help of his good friend, President Donald Trump.”

It is just something that is needed for handling money (book royalties, donations, prize money etc) in a completely transparent way. For instance, taxes have to be paid before we can give them away to specified purposes and charities. This takes a lot of time and work, and when the foundation is fully up and running I will tell you more.
The foundation’s aim will be to promote ecological, climatic and social sustainability as well as mental health.

There’s a reason Mitch McConnell has been Senate Majority Leader for the past 13 years: He gets the job done.
And the biggest part of that job is keeping the GOP caucus, however necessary. At this point, he appears to have pulled off the feat once again.
On Wednesday, McConnell (R-Ky.) and Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) — always a wavering and unreliable GOP vote — met in the morning. After that meeting, The Hill reported, it was clear “that the question of having additional witnesses is settled, and the Senate will vote Friday to wrap up the impeachment trial of President Trump.”
There was no discussion of witnesses at a Senate GOP lunch meeting Wednesday, which was held a couple hours after McConnell and Murkowski met for about 20 to 30 minutes. That was seen as a sign by several senators that Democrats will fail to convince four Republicans to join them in calling for witnesses. Without a vote to hear from witnesses, the trial could end as soon as Friday. “We’re going to get it done by Friday, hopefully,” Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.) said following the meeting. Sen. Mike Braun (R-Ind.), emerging from the lunch, said, “I think I can say the mood is good.” Braun expressed confidence that McConnell will be able to keep his conference unified enough to defeat a motion to consider subpoenas for additional witnesses and documents. “If I had to guess, no witnesses,” he said. “We’ll be in a place where I think everyone is going to have their mind made up and I believe that we’ll be able to move to a verdict, and the witness question will be clear at that point,” Braun added.
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT), another wavering vote on the GOP side and who has called for calling witnesses, would not talk to reporters as he left the lunch. Sen. Susan Collins (R-MN) has also been named as a Republican who may support witnesses.
What a difference a day makes. On Tuesday, McConnell said he didn’t think he had the necessary votes to prevent the calling of witnesses, according to the Wall Street Journal. But NBC News and Politico, a liberal website in Washington, D.C., also say McConnell now appears to have held his GOP majority in line and a vote to end the sham trial could well take place on Friday. It all could be over by Friday night, or at the latest on Saturday. Nice SOTU!
