The demoralization and fear gripping blue America in the early weeks of President Trump’s administration have left liberal groups and their allies struggling for cash, hurting their ability to effectively combat the right-wing transformation of the federal government.
The small-dollar online spigot that powered opposition to the first Trump administration has slowed to a trickle as shaken liberal voters withhold their donations.
Charitable foundations that have long supported causes like voting rights, L.G.B.T.Q. equality and immigrants’ rights are pulling back, devoting time to prepare for expected investigations from the Republican-led Congress.
And some of the country’s biggest liberal donors have paused giving, frustrated with what they see as Democrats’ lack of vision and worried about retaliation from a vengeful president. Some Democrats say a few of their reliable donors are now openly supporting Mr. Trump, or at least looking to curry favor with him. More
your ****** bullshit is going away, assholes
Legitimate sources… Good one.
What are these “legitimate sources” you speak of?
Since when was any democrat source legitimate
How much cash did Heals Up Harris blow through? Can you blame their donors?
@Just Axing
“ha ha ha, you said blow through!”
“Charitable foundations that have long supported causes like voting rights, L.G.B.T.Q. equality and immigrants’ rights are pulling back, devoting time to prepare for expected investigations from the Republican-led Congress.”
Not a single solotary one of them has not been completely invested in advocating for and promoting extralegal voting if not involved in election fraud and theft. Not a one. Not one damn one of them has and is not interested in LBTG rights, they are completely and totally invested in either special privileges and/or grooming and sexual exploitation of minors. Not a damn one of them has any interest in anyone they can exploit to advance their own agenda. They seek out “vulnerable populations” and go around the world recruiting people to enter the country illegally in order to prey on them and/or exploit them for cheap labor and/or to augment their census count in order to expand their influence and/or set themselves up as their saviors.
It’s about time they focused on preparing themselves to spend serious hard time and in many cases for a mask and a cigarette in the morning. That includes the Bush Republicans in spades, and the Cheney family in particular. That includes Catholic Charities, which is anathema to The Church and nothing but a front for Marxist/Satanist infiltration into society. That includes damn near every single Christian denomination in the country. It would be the greatest gift those who belong to the Catholic Church could get from this administration to have every last one of those individuals frog marched, tried, convicted and locked up.
Thank the Lord, our prayers have been answered. Happy days are here again… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waZUb6jqRXk
It’s just money, guys. Problem for you now, though, is that all those “Other People” from which it sprang in a seemingly endless flow, are wise to you.
You know, as great as it is that their funds are drying up, is the reality that MAGA is officially shredding their doctrine of our Constitution being a “living document”. They’ve lost that narrative. No more getting around Amendments via unelected bureaucrats’ regulations.
🚨JOE ROGAN: “The (Deep State) cant conspire right now because their phones are tapped. The power that the Government has to look into people’s emails, their phones, their texts, their signal, their everything — the idea that they’re not doing that if they’re not in the middle of a trillion dollar fraud investigation is ridiculous. They also have to worry about people taking deals. There’ll be some people that squeal. So you don’t know who’s your enemy and who’s your friend and you go to lunch with someone and they’re wearing some button camera and now you’re f**ked. So they’re not united right now. This is why it’s working and they’re able to release all these information and people are in this hot panic right now.”

It couldn’t be more clear that having Biden and his merry band consisting of absolutely nothing but degenerates and fuck ups in the White House for the last four years was probably a necessary prelude to what is happening. Most people have short memories, but having that experience to juxtapose against is going to make it all but important for Democrats to get any traction.
At the risk of irritating people on this site, many of the people who frequent IOTWReport are the true liberals. They take care of family and friends. They contribute to churches and favorite charities. They help out people who need help. They may not like homosexuality or any of the other LGBTQ, but they recognize that they have rights. They don’t like illegal immigration, but are not racists. For many of us who grew up in the 1960s and 1970s, we were the liberals despite voting Republican.
Our current crew of “liberals” and “progressives” are just out to make a buck for themselves as well as lord power over people. Yeah, black lives matter so long as the movement stays out of their gated communities. The government should fund all of these different programs so long as some of that sweet, sweet cash comes their way. Maddow still pretends to care – although at the discounted rate of $25 million per year.
These people should be concerned – although Trump is really not into retaliation despite have reasons to do so. However, Trump is into people who continually get away with violating the law with the help of the media, and who enrich themselves from government largesse; these people should be concerned.
And don’t think that having an “R” next to your name will insulate you. Abusing the government for your own profit is unlawful regardless of political affiliation.
Not important, impossible
I don’t think this is coincidental. I think a lot of these small scale donors were actually money laundering entities that channeled federal funds ostensibly for NGO, non-profit, and charity from government grants to the democrat party via multiple steps, using their private donor lists that exist only to serve as individual donors when they may not even be real members. Texas AG Ken Paxton has been looking into this scam for a while.
It’s likely that the US taxpayer has been the primary donor to the DNC for years and didn’t even know it.

Dear Wyatt, Am in agreement with you. Grew up in the 50s & 60s and when I came of age to vote registered as a Democrat then over the years witnessed the damage that the Democrat party did to (in my opinion)the Greatest city in the USA until I saw the change that a Republican can make . That Republican was Rudy Giuliani, who managed to govern what was considered an “ungovernable” city . When he ran for his 2nd term is when my Late Great Husband and I registered as Republicans. ALL Republicans can do better , please NO RINOS !!!
