I received an email yesterday from an attorney, demanding I remove Tweets in which I noted that Sherrilyn Fisher, wife of @KennethLFisher, is the largest individual donor to Republicans, $2.8 million according to @OpenSecretsDC. opensecrets.org/elections-over…
I deleted my previous Tweets to clarify Sherrilyn Fisher's $2.8 mil donation to Republicans.
"neither Ken nor Sherri Fisher has ever made any donation - whether directly or through any entity, whether of funds or anything of value - to Doug Mastriano or any campaign of his..."
Lucas Kunce is running for U.S. Senator from Missouri.
I have asked the Fishers' attorney whether any of Sherrilyn Fisher's reported $2.8 donations to Republicans went to Republicans who turned their backs on veterans who were exposed to toxic burn pits.
"Ken Fisher has close ties with Trump...Fisher’s primary source of wealth is Fisher Investments...Today his website says that it manages over $71 billion"
Sherrilyn Fisher, wife of Ken Fisher, is biggest individual donor to Republicans, 2022 election cycle, $2.8 mil. Recipients include John Kennedy, Kevin McCarthy, the GOP Parties of Texas and Arizona, among others. Source: @OpenSecretsDC donor lookup tool: opensecrets.org/donor-lookup
Sherrilyn Fisher donated to @derrickvanorden, Trump-endorsed GOP candidate for Congress.
"41 Republicans in Washington blocked a bill that would have 'expanded medical coverage for millions of combatants exposed to toxic burn pits during their service.'" foxnews.com/opinion/expose…
I have asked Navy SEAL veteran @derrickvanorden, GOP candidate for Congress from #Wisconsin, and recipient of donations from Sherrilyn Fisher, for comment on Republicans in Washington blocking a bill that would aid veterans exposed to toxic burn pits. militarytimes.com/news/burn-pits…
I noticed that Sherrilyn Fisher hasn't made any federal contributions since March. I asked the Fishers' lawyer if the Fishers are concerned about reputation damage stemming from Mrs. Fisher's standing as top individual federal contributor to Republicans, 2022 election cycle?
I emailed this question to the Fishers' attorney today at the law firm where Pat Cipollone is a partner. I will report if I receive a response.
Sherrilyn Fisher, wife of @KennethLFisher, donated $10K to the Republican Party of Michigan on Jan. 5, 2021. Ryan Kelley, a @GOP candidate for Michigan governor, pleaded not guilty for his actions during the insurrection at the US Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. nytimes.com/2022/07/22/us/…
In the two days preceding Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, Sherrilyn Fisher, wife of @KennethLFisher, made a spate of donations to Republican Parties of multiple states for $10K each.

🚨NEW by me: Adult bullying has spiked. Trump & Musk pave the way. I spoke with experts:
John Gartner @duty2warn, Jennifer Fraser @bulliedbrain, Steven Hassan @CultExpert, Bill Eddy @HighConflict, Renee DiResta @noUpside & @PeterHotez Via @thequeenzone thequeenzone.com/experts-reveal…
Dr. Gartner said Trump "feels pleasure, joy from degrading other people, enjoying crushing people. He feels entitled to attack.” He added, “His bullying is more disinhibited with dementia. He has no filter. He’s more erratic, impulsive, lashing out in random and confused ways.”
Trump’s repetition of “fake news,” discrediting journalists and news outlets, echoes the Nazi cry of “Lugenpresse,” meaning “lying press.” Musk has taken up the rallying cry, attacking mainstream media, while X offers fertile ground for the spread of disinformation.
🎆NEW: A European Commission spokesperson emailed me, saying the EU's investigation into X under the DSA is "still ongoing" and includes "risk of disseminating illegal content." Holocaust denial is illegal in Germany. The post below remains intact on X. 1/
The EU spokesperson said the DSA requests "non-arbitrary enforcement" of terms and conditions. The @AuschwitzMuseum said they reported the Holocaust denial post above to X as prohibited post: "Violent event denial" but they received no response from X. 2/
X / Twitter has promised advertisers brand safety. But several companies and orgs told me they had concerns after their ads appeared next to pro-Hitler and antisemitic content.
A spokesperson for Edmunds, a division of CarMax $KMX, messaged me, “Like all other X advertisers, Edmunds does not control when or where the ads may appear to users as they use the platform,”
after Edmunds' ad had appeared next to an antisemitic post. hillreporter.com/does-brand-saf…
A.T. Still University messaged me after its ad appeared next to a pro-Hitler video post:
"ATSU was unaware of X’s placement and will seriously consider withdrawing advertising on the site. ATSU unequivocally condemns antisemitism, all forms of hate speech, and discrimination."
Stephen Miller is plotting his vile racist agenda for Trump's next term. And now partnering with Elon Musk's X on racist hashtag #DemolishDEI. Companies working with @X are funding Trump's racist agenda. Renounce your partnership with Musk, @NBA @Shopify. vanityfair.com/news/2023/11/s…
Shopify has announced a partnership with Elon Musk's @X. I asked @Shopify how it reconciles Shopify's commitment to diversity with Elon Musk's attack on DEI. Musk said 'DEI must DIE' and called it 'discrimination.' The CEO of Shopify @tobi blocked me. My question to $SHOP stands.
How does @Shopify reconcile its commitment to diversity with Elon Musk's attack on DEI, diversity and inclusion? @X has announced a new partnership with $SHOP
What is David King III's comment about @Shopify's new partnership with Elon Musk's @X? Mr. King is Head of Diversity for Shopify. Musk said 'DEI must DIE' and called DEI initiatives 'discrimination. Comment from David King III or $SHOP CEO @tobi?
Yesterday, GOP Sen. JD Vance and Elon Musk called out Mark Cuban and the @dallasmavs on diversity and inclusion. Musk called DEI ‘the definition of racism.’
In Nov, Media Matters reported that ads on X for the @NBA Mexico appeared next to posts with white nationalist hashtags.
Both Elon Musk and JD Vance were apparently triggered by Mark Cuban's thread in support of DEI, diversity, equity and inclusion. So they clapped back at Cuban with silly questions about the @dallasmavs, the @NBA team Cuban owns.
In November, Media Matters reported that ads for the @NBA Mexico appeared next to white nationalist posts on X. Screenshots showed NBA superstars Stephen Curry and Victor Wembanyama next to white nationalist posts. Elon Musk sued @mmfa for its reporting.
