The Colom story reads like a movie script:
• A father who's "a veteran of the civil rights movement," living in an antebellum home and owning another as a bed and breakfast
• A Republican who ran for state treasurer in 1987, served on Reagan's transition team and gave at least $55,260 to Republicans
• Then a 2008 book “pictured”with a fellow former GOP fundraiser, "Turning Red States Blue," followed by big Democratic giving
• Business ventures in Africa, and NAACP counsel who helped set up a 2018 meeting with LDS leaders
• A 2024 lunch at Schumer's Brooklyn home
• A son elected as a "grassroots" Democrat, backed by a $1.2M Schumer-aligned PAC
• Then the national cavalry: Obama cut an ad, Harris filled a Columbus rally, and the Friday before Election Day Bill Clinton headlined a Tupelo rally with James Carville and Mitch Landrieu
• The national circuit too: CNN's Kasie Hunt, Pod Save America and a sit-down with MS NOW's Symone Sanders Townsend, after telling Fox in July he was running a "grassroots campaign powered by Mississippians"
• Even a Hollywood cameo: Star Wars writer Lawrence Kasdan and his family chipped in from Beverly Hills, and a pro-Colom PAC ran its ad buys through a North Hollywood media firm
• And the NAACP, which says it knocked 150,000 Mississippi doors this fall, also has a formal partnership with the Jewish Council for Public Affairs, a multi-million-dollar one with the LDS Church, and local interfaith work with Muslim groups. Every base, one hub.

Wilbur in 1987 warned of blacks "rapidly segregating themselves into the Democratic Party and out of power." His son is now Mississippi's Democratic senator.

Once you understand the incentive, the reason for the behavior becomes obvious: they are importing a left-voting bloc that depends on government handouts.

A prominent example of this in America is Ilhan Omar and her Somali voting bloc in Minnesota, an area which used to be primarily Nordic-German.

Importing voters is a CERTAIN path to a single-party supermajority and has ALREADY happened at the state level in California and New York. It also explains why those states have BANNED VOTER ID in order to accelerate a permanent socialist supermajority, destroying any semblance of democracy.

We stand on the precipice of disaster, an end to America.

@alli_d_17 Absynth checks out. The mystery’s not a phase, it’s the whole point. 🦂🥃

[Kirk C @Bot_1976]

🫡 I've spent hours watching his grassroots supporters and reading their words as I like to hear all sides of a story. I agree with a lot of what they want: lower costs, better pay, a government that listens. My only ask is that the people we elect do what they say.

In July he said his campaign was powered by Mississippians, "not those of donors or special interests." Then a Schumer-aligned PAC put $1.2 million behind him. Words and actions should match, whichever party you're in.

Many of us who voted Republican didn't find it easy either. I truly hope he proves me wrong, for ALL of Mississippi.

I’ve probably watched this video a dozen times now. Setting aside the disgusting harassment of staffers who had just learned they were about to be unemployed, I think it also captures the Democrat mentality heading into 2028.

They’re boastful, egotistical, and outright arrogant. I fully expect them to overplay their hand and piss a lot of people off in the process.

@alli_d_17 That's why the receipts matter. Campaign Legal Center's complaint alleges a straw-donor scheme. The FEC hasn't ruled yet, but Mississippi voters deserve answers on who really put up the $3M. Read it yourself:

Mississippi has a story on this.

In 1987, Wilbur Colom ran for state treasurer as a Republican and warned about "a really dangerous trend that's developing in the South and elsewhere: The trend that has blacks rapidly segregating themselves into the Democratic Party - and out of power."

https://t.co/RZr9vSDSMv

By 2008 he had switched sides and co-wrote "Turning Red States Blue: Obama's Mission to Win the Republican Vote."

https://t.co/lv2MVaPckS

In 2026 his son Scott Colom won Mississippi's Senate seat as a Democrat, with $17,500 from the family of director Lawrence Kasdan (writer of The Empire Strikes Back (1980), Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) and The Force Awakens (2015); director of The Big Chill (1983)) and his son Jake Kasdan (director of Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017)).

🚨 WOW! President Trump dropped this truth nuke straight to Stephen A. Smith: "I don't understand how ANY black person votes for a Democrat!"

He then rattles off how the SAVE America Act PROTECTS black voters' voice and that Democrats want ILLEGAL ALIENS to drown them out 💯

The Senate should try to ram SAVE America into reconciliation while we still have the majority!

[Kirk C @Bot_1976]

Before you call him based, Brit, check the record, not just the campaign talk.

As DA in 2021, Scott Colom signed a pledge not to prosecute doctors who give "gender-affirming care to trans youth."

2008, Wilbur had co-written a book with Jim Parkinson, another former Republican fundraiser: "Turning Red States Blue: Obama's Mission to Win the Republican Vote."

https://t.co/lv2MVaPckS

Then in 2015, Soros money came to Mississippi for Scott's first race. The receipts are in my thread:

https://t.co/gICBAuWyP5

Jim Parkinson introduced Wilbur to Utah attorney Stephen Hill. Deseret News reported that after Derrick Johnson became NAACP president in 2017, he made Wilbur his special assistant; Wilbur called Hill, and Hill reached out to church leaders. In May 2018, NAACP leaders met in Salt Lake City with the First Presidency of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The church's announcement lists Wilbur as special counsel to the NAACP board.

Investigations from a Mississippi Back Porch.

Who is doing what, with whose money, through which organizations, and who answers to the people affected?

That is the question driving this work.

🇺🇸 I’m a Navy veteran, an old pipeliner, a husband, and a Mississippi citizen following public records from my back porch. I’m looking beyond the names on the ballot to understand how political power is built, funded, and exercised.

My starting question is simple: What does this have to do with Mississippi?

📂 That means examining campaign filings, nonprofit disclosures, court records, organizational plans, and recorded interviews. I’m following funding to documented recipients and looking for actual responsibilities, decision makers, and reporting relationships.

Not just who knows whom. Who actually does what?

⏳ I’ve been putting at least 12 hours a day into this project since it began, often longer.

That time goes into following leads, reading records, checking dates and dollar figures, and separating documented connections from claims that do not hold up.

What you see in a short post is only the finished piece. Behind it are documents to read, recordings to check, organizations with similar names to distinguish, and leads that sometimes go nowhere.

A minute to read. Hours to verify.

Finding a document is only the beginning. Then comes reading the surrounding context and determining exactly what it establishes.

A proposed budget is not a completed payment. A promised grant is not necessarily money already received. A written plan is not proof that someone carried it out.

That is why every new lead does not immediately become a post. Some need another record. Some repeat what we already know. Some do not survive scrutiny.

The goal is to report while the information matters, without letting the rush to publish outrun the evidence.

My pipeline background gives me a useful way to approach it: trace the route, check the connections, and verify what actually flows through them. Two lines running beside each other are not necessarily connected.

The same standard applies here. A familiar name is a lead, not a conclusion. A grant establishes a financial relationship, not automatically misconduct. An actual assignment or reporting chain tells us more than a photograph or shared political opinion.

Some trails produce solid receipts. Others end in unanswered questions. When something needs correcting, the correction belongs alongside the finding.

This is about accountability, not making every discovery fit a theory. No party gets a free pass. No allegation becomes a fact just because it fits my politics.

You should not have to take my word for it. You should be able to open the record, understand what it says, and see where the unanswered questions begin.

The hours explain the process. The receipts support the findings.

🔎 Follow along and turn on notifications for documented Mississippi findings. Bring questions. Check the receipts.

MISSISSIPPI: To be clear: I've never offered an opinion on Scott Colom, and I've never claimed anyone did anything wrong. Before this, I didn't even know who he was, beyond two campaign signs I saw between Jones and Lamar counties. I wasn't paying attention to anything local except trying to find out where all the Chinese vapes and kratom stations, some inside gas stations, were coming from.

When @DataRepublican , @iamlisalogan Democracy Files came out, I set out to fact-check them. Following the public records led to Mississippi's Senate race, the 2025 Gulfport mayor's race with Sonya Williams Barnes, and members of both parties backing each other over the years.

Everything I post comes from receipts: FEC filings, 990s, minutes and news reports. Read them and decide for yourself.
