The #Trump47 Cmte can raise up to $814,600 acc/to a donor form…& the joint #fundraising agreement outlines where each dollar is allocated sequentially down to the last dollar of each contribution.
The #donor form shows that the first $3,300 of each donation will be directed to #Trump for President primary election acct; the next $3,300 will go to his general election acct; the next $5k will go to #SaveAmerica & the next $413k is directed to the #RNC.
and I became the first of my generation ever elected to Congress.
It didn't come easy. A lot of people counted me out. They said that I was too young or that I didn't have the "right" experience.
But people like you ignored all of that noise. They believed in this youth-powered movement for change, and I was able to defy the odds.
Now, our movement has become a powerful force and direct threat to the status quo.
That's why fascist leaders, the gun lobby, and special interests are all plotting to replace me in this election.
Every dollar counts in a fight like this, so I'm asking you for $1 (yep, just a dollar) to join this historic movement so I can defy the odds again and win on Election day.
Will you donate just $1 to become a #Founding#Donor to my reelection campaign so we can keep Gen Z in Congress?
I set a goal of raising $25,000 today and if everyone reading this text chipped in, we'd crush this goal!

#Republicans#fear they will be targets in #Trump’s ‘#retribution’ campaign
TFG is already attacking those who have endorsed his #GOP opponents or have crossed him in other ways
The high-dollar #donor community, which has been told in various ways to rally quickly behind #Trump, has taken notice.
“People took that as, ‘I am going to be president & I am going to investigate you,’” said Katon Dawson, a fmr SC #GOP chair & Haley backer, when Trump threatened to punish her donors. “There is always a threat. If you are not for him he’s against you.”
Just got turned away from the blood donation bus for the best reason: they were too busy.
Even on a Monday in the holiday season people are making time to donate blood on their lunch break. Some faith in humanity is restored; I'll have to circle back later today.
I heard on the news this week that the restrictions on blood donation for people who lived in the UK in the late '80's or early '90's have (or are about to be)lifted.

#Thomas has attended at least two #Koch donor summits, putting him in the extraordinary position of having helped a #political network that has brought multiple #cases before the #SupremeCourt.
#Thomas’ appearances were arranged w/the help of #LeonardLeo, the #FederalistSociety leader, acc/to the fmr snr #Koch network employee. “Leonard was the conduit who would get him,” the former employee said. During one summit, Thomas gave a talk w/Leo in an interview format, the #donor recalled.
While attending the #donor events would likely #violate the lower courts’ prohibition on #fundraising, experts said, #SCOTUS has a narrow internal definition of a fundraiser: an event that raises more money than it costs or where attendees are explicitly asked for money while the event’s happening.
On the Thurs before the Jan 2018 summit in Palm Springs, #Thomas flew there on a chartered #PrivateJet….
For the event that year, the #Koch network rented out the (entire) Renaissance Esmeralda Resort & Spa. On the main stage, #donors heard from Hall of Fame NFL cornerback Deion Sanders, who was working w/the Kochs on anti-poverty programs in Dallas. Another speaker delivered a report card on the group’s #political wins large & small: “repealed voter-approved #donor#disclosure initiative”; “retraction of #mining & #environmental overreach”; “stopped Albuquerque #PaidSickLeave mandate.”
Charles & David #Koch’s access to #ClarenceThomas has gone well beyond his participation in their #donor events. For years, the #KochBrothers had opportunities to meet privately w/ #Thomas thanks to the justice’s regular trips to the #BohemianGrove, an all-male retreat that attracts some of the nation’s most #influential#corporate & #political figures. Thomas has been a regular… for 25 yrs as #HarlanCrow’s guest, acc/to internal docs & interviews w/dozens of members, other guests & workers….
Sanders signed Senate Bill 10, which exempts records that “reflect the planning or provision of security services” provided to the governor and other cabinet members....
In the months before the ruling…, a group of #conservative activists came together to create just such an org. Its mission would be to, at the time, block then-President Barack #Obama’s pet #initiatives.
Tax data obtained by @ProPublica provides a glimpse of what congressional investigators would find if Crow were to open his books…. Crow’s voyages w/Thomas, the data shows, contributed to a nice side benefit: They helped reduce Crow’s tax bill.…
