We face two huge threats: Christo Fascism and Climate Change
White nationalist fascists like the one discussed in this essential piece have infiltrated many GOP-linked institutions. I happen to know of four such people who have recently been active in Oregon and Washington. They look like “normal” young Republicans, but they are Hitler-admiring fascists. Of, course they present themselves publicly as “America First nationalists.” https://gwenfrisbiefulton.medium.com/the-things-you-are-getting-wrong-about-white-supremacists-is-what-allows-them-to-grow-553fa1cf54c8
The Things You Are Getting Wrong About White Supremacists Is What Allows Them To Grow

Twelve years ago, I packed up a Uhaul and left the home my son was born in. I drove across the country with him in a car seat, singing hours of nursery rhymes to keep him entertained. I loved that…

Do you know how many times I've heard over the past few days how much the media is failing to follow the money in this story about the newly elected Rep. George #Santos? This story makes it clear that's exactly what happened.

https://www.theleaderonline.com/single-post/santos-filings-now-claim-net-worth-of-11-million (edit: replaced the paywalled WaPo story about how the MSM missed the big scoop with the big scoop itself).

So let's follow the money, shall we? Starting with Mr. Santos' latest filing for The #Devolder Organization, which is apparently responsible for his sudden unexplained wealth (Devolder is Santos' late mother's last name).

http://search.sunbiz.org/Inquiry/CorporationSearch/ConvertTiffToPDF?storagePath=COR%5C2021%5C0601%5C00184778.Tif&documentNumber=L21000206150

The organization lists its address as 336 N. Babcock St. Ste 104. The document also lists another organization at the same address but at Ste 101, called D&D International Investment Services Inc.

Both are affiliated with an individual named Devaughn #Dames, who appears to be both a physician and a CFO somehow. He's also very passionate about spreading his knowledge about how to handle your money wisely. His linkedin page mentions both companies. He also seems to be an IT expert; previous domains include https://web.archive.org/web/20160518071721/http://www.manageditsolutions.net/about.html

One of Mr. Dames' email addresses (dev.dames at gmail) was used to register the vanity domain devaughndames[.]com. Firefox didn't like what that site tried to do when I visited it, but it loaded an empty page that had the heading "Financial Educational Services." But the pop-up takes you to a domain called myuwe[.]net, which is for an entity called United Wealth Education.

Now, UWE is full of stock photos and videos, and there isn't much there about who runs it. And after spending a few minutes on this site, you'll probably come away with the conclusion that the site is tied to some type of scam.

Well, if you look up the name of what Myuwe[.]net used to be called -- Financial Educational Services -- you'll see they were shut down JUST THIS YEAR by the US Federal Trade Commission for being a giant pyramid scheme that bilked people out of more than $213 million.

How's that for following the money? :) Wait, I'm not done yet.

Santos Filings Now Claim Net Worth of $11 Million

By Maureen Daly Controversial US congressional candidate George Santos has finally filed his Personal Financial Disclosure Report on September 6th - 20 months late - and he is claiming an inexplicable rise in his alleged net worth to $11 million.. Two years ago, in 2020, Santos' personal financial disclosures claimed that he had no assets over $5,000 - no bank accounts, no stock accounts, no real property. A net worth barely above "zero". And his income was only just over $50,000 for the pr

The United States sits alone in the bottom right quadrant due to its much higher spending and below-average life expectancy.

For #Trekkies celebrating #Hanukkah, be inspired by my friend Louis’ menorah craft project, now in its fourth year: The USS Yentaprise. “Her 8-day mission: To boldly schlep where no Jew has schlepped before!” #StarTrek

Outside of the USA, blue has no particular association with Hanukkah. If there's any festive palette, it's yellows and browns, the colours of burning candles, fried latkes and jam doughnuts.

The blue thing in America seems to be because:

1. Christmas has red, green and a bit of yellow
2. Israel's flag is blue and white

Super-sharp read on what's going on with Musk at Twitter, from one of the journalists he banned

https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-business-playbook-boss-visionary-jerk-spacex-tesla-twitter-2022-12?s=09

Elon Musk was always a visionary jerk, bad boss at SpaceX, Tesla. But it won't work at Twitter.

Elon Musk has used the same playbook at all of his companies from Tesla to SpaceX. Sadly for him, his model will cause Twitter to go down in flames.

Nazi groups, including the Christofascist youth group, New Colombia Movement, just got a #drag show in #AustinTX canceled. I know for a fact that community defense organizations including the local John Brown Gun Club offered aid. I respect the performers choice to protect themselves but hate seeing the fascists successfully attack #queer culture, again. This is a genocidal movement.

A TERF conference is reportedly headed to Austin in April. We need to get organized.
