VAN WAGTENDONK: As for her campaign, a big spender is the liberal megadonor George Soros. He's given $2 million to the Wisconsin Democratic Party. So, of course, Schimel has fired back that Soros, a boogeyman of the right, is controlling Crawford.

You're quoting the total amount spent by democrat donors. But I'm sure you only made an honest mistake and will stand corrected presently

:edit: just saw your edit 👆

EDIT: I was wrong, the number is almost certainly lower. https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/buying-time-2025-wisconsin


Indeed I stand corrected. Soros spent less and got his preferred candidate installed, so he got a solid deal. American politics as usual, I guess.

Geez that was refreshing. I'm still used to the old kmc way, where the your part would have been played by ddm and all his followers. I would have had to quote the evidence over and over for 18 pages while they talked about my sisters and my drinking preferences and accuse me of being a pedo, etc etc.

I like this new kmc, dead as it is. Thanks for that 👆

This goddamn forum. Sometimes I genuinely feel bewildered by the decades-spanning personal drama on this extremely remote and obscure corner of the internet.

It all starts with sociopaths starting secret clubs. I think the mods' old solution of forbidding alternate forum links was too weak to stop the trend. Even then they knew those forums could easily turn into a troll brigade base of operations.

As much as I hate AI, I think AI forum moderation (private messaging included) could be the cure for forum herpes. The guaranteed cure is eliminating PM altogether. Anyway, I think forums might make a comeback

Soros spent about 2 million in the Wisconsin race, Musk spent many, many times more.

Musk sunk 25 million

I heard higher, but LoL Elon spent 25mil and got nothing but a wounded ego, more bad press and another fascist stain on his image.

In California, Tesla's biggest US market, people trading in their swastikars for another brand jumped nearly 250% in March, year over year 🙂

Geez you're being harsh. It's not like he's a drunk child predator and welfare fraud living in a rich home with his rich daddy, scamming the state for money. Give the guy a break.

This idea that Elon doesn't care about losing money is another cope, you don't become the wealthiest person without caring a whole lot about money.

Well we saw him being a big crybaby over Walz making fun of Tesla’s stock price crash 😂

Meanwhile the world market is being deliberately crashed.

South Korea has turned to shit again...

I agree. I have a brother who likes to moan about paying tax, yet works for the government. I ask him where he thinks his money is coming from, only for him to be speechless...

What?

Oh I get it: Your alcohol rotten brain translated that as "taxpayers are assholes". Your jealousy is pathetic.

"a taxpayer" is something that most of us (not you) are. What the comedian means is that the statement "I'm a taxpayer" is an indication that they're going to act entitled and demand special consideration, when they (not you) are really only doing the bare minimum contribution as a citizen.

It's like when people (not you) cry about having to work hard full time as if everyone else is just sitting on their asses 24/7 and being absolutely worthless (like you)
