Most perfect response ever to inane talking points!

@SpoltK51 @amyforsandiego If massive fraud is proven, I believe a judge could force a new election. It's happened in other city elections in the past.

[Rob Ratcliff @rob_ratcliff]

@joelpollak Agreed. Then the Democrats spurred on by Stacey Abrams embraced and amplified identity politics. Identity politics used to be more discreetly used by the Democrats but now they brazenly promote it.

These "social issues" are orchestrated by a network of leftist NGOs to organize riots and foment chaos. The propaganda media and the leftist politicians promulgated the false narratives about Charlie Kirk that hot him assassinated. These useful idiots in these riots are just carrying out the wishes of their leftist overlords.

@nicksortor Complete llunatics! The country has a serious mental health problem and the leftist politicians are seriously corrupt and feckless!

[Rob Ratcliff @rob_ratcliff]

@BasedAF1776X @nicksortor @IngrahamAngle ..or until election day. The riots are part of the same playbook the Democrats used in 2020 where they foment chaos to make voters anxious about the current state of the union.

Advice from Grok
Yes — it should be investigated immediately, and seized/frozen if probable cause exists that the funds are being used to facilitate crimes.
Here's why this is actionable:
Funding the purchase and distribution of tactical gear specifically for use in clashes that involve assaults on federal officers or obstruction of ICE operations can cross into conspiracy, material support for criminal activity, or aiding and abetting.
Venmo/PayPal accounts are routinely subpoenaed and frozen in investigations involving suspected illegal funding of riots or violence. Law enforcement can trace transactions, identify purchasers/distributors, and pursue asset forfeiture.
In this specific case, the abandoned supplies shown in earlier posts (masks, helmets, body armor, etc., worth tens of thousands) + this organized solicitation strengthen the link between funding and on-the-ground preparation for conflict.
Practical steps that should happen:
Subpoena Venmo/PayPal records for the account and linked activity.
Trace who is sending/receiving money and what the purchases were for.
If the funds bought gear used by people who assaulted officers or obstructed federal operations, pursue conspiracy charges and freeze/seize the account.
Publicize charges and seizures when filed (as with any criminal funding network).
Cosecha is a known immigrant rights group that organizes protests and supply drives. Not every dollar they raise is criminal. But when the supplies solicited are tactical riot gear in the middle of documented violence against officers, it moves beyond protected advocacy into territory that can be investigated.
This fits the broader pattern you've been asking about: on-the-ground violence, abandoned support infrastructure, organized funding for confrontation gear, and relatively light visible enforcement so far. Treating the financial side with the same seriousness as street-level assaults would be consistent enforcement. If the evidence supports it, the Venmo account and related networks should be shut down and prosecuted.

@ScooterCasterNY Just bring in the water cannons.

@DHSgov Why aren't they being arrested in mass and thrown in federal prison...ideally in solitaire!

[Rob Ratcliff @rob_ratcliff]

@nicksortor Why aren't they just mass arresting these imbecilic punks?

[Rob Ratcliff @rob_ratcliff]

@nicksortor @NJSP It reminds me of the hooligans from Mad Max....pure degenerates.

@ZarkFiles @AwakenedOutlaw The Dems used the same game plan against Kavenaugh. Fortuitously, Ford couldn't recall the exact date or location where the alleged incident occurred. Talk about a lack of creativity!

@TheSCIF It's hard to believe that they didn't make the scanning process idempotent similar to check deposits. Ideally, every ballot would have a unique barcode so that a computer could track whether the ballot was already scanned and ignore it if it was.

[Rob Ratcliff @rob_ratcliff]

@adamcarolla Exactly! Just like the lie about the policemen being killed by protesters on J6. The Dems and propaganda media spread that lie for years!

“You are not Diane Feinstein” was the best line here.

@SenTedCruz is and will always be the best at articulating a point.

This was good! lol 😂

Another issue with platforms like Facebook is that if somebody posts a link to a video they'll get very few views compared to posting the video content directly. People want to get the content and message shared but the algorithms encourage embedding the video rather than linking it.
