Are dementia-ridden seniors a possible explanation for the ActBlue zombie donor phenomenon?

Let's break this down before it becomes a narrative based on the evidence available and my experience finding and interviewing victims here in North Carolina Image 2/
2023: Analysis of FEC data by citizen journalists revealed a pattern of high-quantity small-dollar contributions made by often unemployed & senior donors, sometimes totaling $100k+
When visited in person, many denied having made the reported donations

1/ The City of Durham will be paying $1 million+ in reparations to black applicants who failed an entry exam for firefighters

The DOJ says the 4th grade level questions on reading, writing, math, etc. "disparately impacted" black applicants, who were 3x more likely to fail🧵🧵🧵 Image 2/ The complaint filed Monday by the DOJ in the federal court alleges that the city "unintentionally engaged in a pattern or practice of discrimination against African-American applicants" by "making hiring decisions based on a written examination"

1/10 Patriot Front is a white nationalist group known for their performative vandalism and costume-coordinated marches

But are they all feds? The case of a North Carolina member who was just arrested and charged may be illuminative

1/ Let's break down how the ActBlue zombie-donors/smurphing/political contribution laundering appears to work, based on my boots-on-the-ground experience investigating it here in NC
🧵
2/ In our investigation (based on 2021-2022 FEC records), we found

- 2 citizens who denied giving the $20k+ each attributed to them
- 2 donors who did not live at their reported address

1/ You may know Roy Cooper as the mild-mannered NC governor who's a top VP pick for Kamala Harris

I know him as the tyrant who trampled our rights and had demonstrators arrested for opposing his executive orders while he himself did a photo op at BLM protest
🧵 Image 2/ On March 14, 2020, Gov. Cooper issued Executive Order No. 117 banning gatherings of more than 100 in a "confined indoor or outdoor space"

The order was written to prohibit church services, but not office spaces, malls, or retail establishments

Misconduct: "Participated in January 6 riot"

An unnamed MPD Officer received a 10-day suspension in 2023 for his behavior undercover on J6

Could be Officer Tomasula, who recorded himself acting as an agent provacateur with shouts of "keep going!", "go, go, go!", etc.

Image "MPD spokesperson Paris Lewbel clarifies that the unnamed investigator (a rank similar to detective) 'was disciplined for violating general orders relating to undercover operations during the January 6th insurrection.'"

🧵As an NC journalist who pays attention, here's eight examples DEI/wokeness at Duke:

1. Duke Health Anti-Racism Pledge
In May 2021, Duke issued a pledge declaring "racism is a public health crisis"


Although allegedly "guided by science", under pushback from an adjunct associate, a "Duke Health senior administrator" made the following admission:

"I concede that I cannot find a randomized blinded trial that proves implicit bias is the cause of worse health outcomes for African Americans. Believe me. I have looked."

Image 2. PRIME-PREP
One of Duke's "signature diversity initiatives"

This NIH funded program "provides focused research training opportunities for students from backgrounds historically underrepresented in science and medicine"



The NIH definition of "Underrepresented Populations" includes women, non-White/non-Asian racial groups, people with disabilities, and people from disadvantaged backgrounds


I believe a claim has been filed regarding this program with the Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights (OCR)

The Town of Chapel Hill paid $4,500 to commission this piece of art for "Pride Month"

Let's look at what the artist had to say about each side:
1/ Image "Say Gay! is a direct response to the “Don’t Say Gay” bill signed into law recently in Florida. Restricting conversations for young kids around concepts of gender and sexuality, this law is dangerous and regressive."

1. The Raleigh City Council is considering an ordinance prohibiting "harassment" in city regulated areas at otherwise 1A protected events

This would include following, surrounding, crowding, or cornering a person for the purpose of threat or intimidation

Based on this reporting, this definitely seems to be the Proud Boy informant who was identified as "James Knowles" last year

See this thread with the leaked documents relating to the CHS, including the texts he sent to his handler immediately after the breach of the Capitol perimeter at the Peace Circle

I have received information from a confidential source on the identity of the Capitol Police officer who nearly killed Derrick Vargo by pushing him off a staircase on January 6th

I plan to release Monday after verifying this information
This is a clearer video of the incident from a security camera which was released since I posted that video back in 2021

I guess it's nice to see people all over caring about elections in a small county in NW corner of our state, but it would be nice if at least one other journalist would cover the allegations against the Wake County Board of Elections in the Bernstein v. Sims lawsuit .@bernstein_lynn has already been granted a preliminary injunction, meaning that the Judge Boyle believes she is likely to succeed on the merits of the lawsuit

This footage appears to be from one of the many security cameras which the Capitol Police were actively using to monitor (note the panning, zooming)

Despite this powerful advantage, the police response was poorly coordinated The Capitol Police had ~80 minutes from when the first violence was started at the perimeter of Capitol Grounds at 12:53 pm to when the Capitol building was breached at 2:12 pm

It's pretty obvious that the Wake GOP isn't close to winning county-wide races

A 62-38 split isn't something you can just overcome with good candidates and hard work in the next election

So what issue do people have with this? Is @steveforschools being TOO honest? Fair enough, Wake GOP endorsed Beth Pugh Farrell got 2nd place in a 5-way 2 seat race for Soil and Water

Is anyone really taking a victory lap over this?
