I received some interesting info from a credible source, as follows. @DOGE_TREAS may want to know if they don't already:

One of the lasting impacts of the PATRIOT Act is its requirement for financial institutions to report all transactions over $3,000 to the U.S. Treasury—a threshold that has never been adjusted for inflation. This data-sharing framework, originally intended to track illicit financial activity, also allows financial institutions to share transaction insights with each other under absolute legal immunity.

In practice, this means that major financial institutions effectively operate their own version of FinCEN internally, gaining a comprehensive, real-time view of global money movements. While regulatory safeguards exist to ensure this data is used strictly for financial crime enforcement, it's highly likely that the Treasury’s vast database holds key records on NGO funding flows.

Yet, there’s a growing concern that Treasury itself isn’t actively monitoring this data—outsourcing the heavy lifting to financial institutions instead. Whether due to oversight or intent, this leaves critical financial crime data untouched at the federal level.

Could this be why some are so resistant to @DOGE's involvement in Treasury systems? It’s less about routine transactions and more about preventing independent analysis of a financial intelligence goldmine.

@DOGE_TREAS Source concludes: "Maybe this is why everyone is so keen to keep DOGE out of the Treasury systems. It isn’t about Social Security checks, it is more about people rooting through the FinCEN database."

@DOGE_TREAS Source also further says nobody at the federal government actually looks at this data. His exact quote: "I think the brain rot at Treasury means they have the data but no one looks at it, they let the financial institutions do it for them."

🚨 NEW TOOL: 2024 SMALL DOLLAR DONOR LOOKUP 🚨
🔎 FIND THE SMURFS. ANALYZE THE RESULTS. 💰
I’ve just launched a 2024 ActBlue / WinRed Donor Lookup, making it easier than ever to investigate small-dollar donations in the 2024 cycle. All donations under $10 from either ActBlue or WinRed are included this dataset.

This is meant to be a complement to @PeterBernegger ElectionWatch website!

Enter any name, zipcode, or combination, and start digging!

✅ Asynchronous Streaming Search – Watch partial results roll in as each data batch is processed. No for the entire dataset.
✅ Flexible Name + ZIP Lookup – Enter partial or full tokens (e.g. "JOHN 90210") and the tool will find every match in seconds.
✅ Global Summaries + Per-Donor Aggregations – Instantly see campaign-level overviews and, simultaneously, group results by individual donors.
✅ Interactive Pie Charts – Visual breakdowns of donation counts and amounts by campaign, color-coded for ActBlue and WinRed.
✅ One-Click CSV Download – Export your entire result set for offline analysis.

💡 Whether you’re investigating potential “Smurfs,” uncovering hidden patterns, or tracking suspicious donation flows, this tool makes the research process straightforward and scalable.
⚠️ Data-heavy! Best viewed on desktop and may take time to complete large queries.

New Substack article up - explaining why DataRepublican dotcom was necessary to expose the awards spending, and why critics who say the data was already available are ignorant:

Data Isn’t Transparency: Why USASpending dotgov Buried the Truth (and DOGE Dug It Up)

Link below 👇

datarepublican.substack.com/p/data-isnt-tr…

Note the Substack provides a simplified explanation of how the text search works. It's actually a dual layer reverse index designed to minimize data loading, and in the case of name search, breaks down into sub-rows via bitwise operations (so I don't match names such as "John Doe" to rows that contain completely different names such as "John Smith" and "Jane Doe").

📞 CALL SENATOR COTTON’S OFFICE NOW—DON’T WAIT. 🚨 SPREAD THIS.

Senator Cotton's office: (479) 751-0879
Senator Cotton's fax: (479) 464-0648

This is real. @JDVance and @PeteHegseth publicly backing @ElbridgeColby on X means one thing: his nomination is under attack. The resistance in the Senate is led by @SenTomCotton—and it’s not about qualifications, it’s about power.

Why? Because Colby rejects the failed ideology of endless wars. He’s a foreign policy realist who threatens the status quo. That’s why the establishment is fighting so hard to stop him.

🔎 Who is Tom Cotton really working for?
He’s a Director at the International Republican Institute (IRI)—one of Washington’s elite NGOs. While IRI brands itself Republican, it’s part of the same D.C. machine that opposes America First policies.
💰 Follow the money:
IRI raked in $130,689,289 last year—mostly taxpayer cash, funneled through USAID. While Cotton isn’t paid, the organization spends $12,173,741 on travel and $14,232,108 on pensions and perks. Meanwhile, it funds refugee resettlement and backs globalist priorities.

🚨 READ THIS TWICE:
If you're with IRI, you're with the global elite—not the American people. The only way to prove otherwise? Resign.
🔥 Don’t let them win. Call Tom Cotton’s office NOW.

@JDVance @PeteHegseth @ElbridgeColby Please do this right now. This is not a drill.

@PeteHegseth needs the intellectual weight of @ElbridgeColby in order to create a new direction for United States foreign policy.

Senator Cotton's office: (479) 751-0879
Senator Cotton's fax: (479) 464-0648

Hello Mr. Eisen,

You have a long history with NGOs—Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institute, a tenure at the Anti-Defamation League, and most notably, founding the States United Democracy Center (EIN 861704152).

Your organization boasts an impressive roster:

🔵 Janet Napolitano (Director): Former Governor of Arizona
🔴 Tom Ridge (Director): First Secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security
🔴 Christine Todd Whitman (Co-Chair): Former Republican Governor of New Jersey and Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency under President George W. Bush.
🔴 Michael Steele (Director): Former RNC chair
🔴 Michael Chertoff (Director): Former United States Secretary of Homeland Security under President George W. Bush
🔵 Joanna Lydgate (President): Former Chief Deputy Attorney General of Massachusetts under a Democratic administration.
🔴 Tom Coleman (Director): Former House Representative from Missouri
🔴 Donald Ayer (Director): Former Deputy Attorney General under President George H.W. Bush

However, its website states absolutely nothing of what they do except a bunch of vaguities about defending democracy and a few papers.

The paid officers are getting handsomely paid:

⚪ Joanna Lydgate (President) ($382,382)
⚪ Jenn Fogel-Bublick (Chief Operating Officer) ($282,532)
⚪ Christine Sun (Legal Director) ($246,932)
⚪ Thania Sanchez (Research Director) ($215,227)
⚪ Gillian Feiner (Senior Counsel) ($211,443)
⚪ Elizabeth Ulmer (Svp, Communications) ($224,448)
⚪ Dax Goldstein (Senior Counsel) ($213,245)

Almost all of the expenses go to salary, with the "Other" expenses going out to contractors.

However, its website states absolutely nothing of what they do except a bunch of vaguities about defending democracy.

So, I was wondering... what do you guys actually do?

Turns out ... you have a YouTube channel and last year, you produced a very expensive-looking Muppet show.

That's what you spend your 17 million dollars on. Muppets that have less than 200 views. That's your idea of election security. Creating animated puppet shows that nobody watches to lecture nonexistent viewers on election safety.

Oh, and they're definitely produced by you, because I went to one of the websites linked in the video and it says "State United Democracy Center" at the bottom.

Tell me, who the hell is donating you to do this? And why should we trust any of you neoconservatives with the responsibility of safeguarding "Democracy" and elections if your idea of doing so is producing puppet shows?

@NormEisen @MSNBC @CapehartJ I have helpfully uploaded one of your Muppet productions for all to see:

@NormEisen @MSNBC @CapehartJ cc: @matt_vanswol does this meet expectations?

🧵 THREAD: THE ILLUSION OF GLOBALISM

@JDVance was correct to call out the hypocrisy of European bureacrats. Politicians constantly preach “democracy” while pushing censorship, media control, and speech restrictions.

Why? Because their version of democracy isn’t about you. It’s about them staying in power, and NGOs are a large part of that equation.

I will explain why below. 👇

👑 GLOBALISM DOESN’T EXIST—IT’S FEUDALISM 👑

Forget “nationalism vs. globalism.” That’s a distraction. The Western world operates as a feudal system, where a small ruling class—modern nobles—hoard power and fear being overthrown.

In their minds, the U.S. isn’t governed by the three branches (Legislative, Executive, Judicial). That’s just a façade. The real power structure looks very different—one where NGOs, bureaucrats, and institutional elites dictate policy from above.

🌍 THE RULING CLASS DOESN’T CARE ABOUT YOUR COUNTRY 🌍

Crime? Infrastructure? Your standard of living? Irrelevant to them. To the elite, all politics happen on the world stage, through NGOs, foreign policy schemes, and multinational organizations. That’s where their real power is.

That's why they didn't give a 💩 about Hurricane Helene victims, about inflation, about the things that impact you.
