Received a text claiming to be a Kamala ad. It used the language of the Harris campaign but twisted it and lied to trigger people.

So I clicked on it and it led me here: https://progress2028.com

This steaming pile of elephant shit is definitely not from the Harris campaign. This is the rhetoric of the MAGA echo chamber with the veneer of the Harris campaign language.

The initial text named my town. Kamala is focused on schools in [My Town] to ensure all students receive gender affirming care….

In a battleground state.

So that’s happening today.

It’s extremely telling that they think all of that stuff is bad and part of a secret conspiracy. I wish Kamala was as left as they make her seem.

That is what makes their communist and Marxist comments sound like a 5yr old trying to tell you a story he just made up. She was chosen by Biden because of how moderate she is. That’s also why they’re running with her now. She IS the purple candidate, which is going to appeal to places like WI and MI. She IS a liberal gun owner, which really is a position we need more of, to win.

She also failed in the primary because of how moderate she is. Republicans tend not to finish that sentence when they say it. “She failed in her primary…(because she leans too far into Republican).”

You should report that to election officials and the FCC.

I don’t know, but a quick search for “report election fraud” turned up some stuff, including this page: https://oig.eac.gov/fraud-reporting

FCC too because it’s over telecom and that’s who regulates that. https://www.fcc.gov/general/frauds-scams-and-alerts-guides

I expect they’ll investigate it in 6-12 months, assuming Trump loses

I fucking WISH those policy positions were real. Alas, there’s obvious lies such as

She’s committed to banning fracking

where in the dark timeline we actually live in, one of her most consequential acts as VP was to be the tie breaking vote AGAINST doing exactly that 😮‍💨

I hope that every Republican angry that a Democrat might do something good steps on a LEGO tonight.

I feel like something like this from the same organization should be illegal.

You can’t advertise contradicting views from the same PAC, because one of them MUST be lying.

I’m sure the FEC will jump right on that.

couldn’t a PAC exist to promote the chaos party, for which the goal is to spread chaos and disinform the populace?

Been getting flyers in the mail from them recently here in Michigan. The language really stressed how pro-Israel she was that it didn’t sound like a legit pro-Harris ad.

They also purchased space on an electric billboard on M-14.

Trump ain’t gonna do shit for Palestinians. There won’t be a Gaza Strip if Trump is elected. He’ll let Israel take over in exchange for the rights to build Trump tower in Khan Yunis. Hell, in exchange for renaming Khan Yunis to Trump Yunis.

Pretty sure this will happen with Kamala as well, but at least they won’t be so straightforward.

I think you’re quite wrong. More “both sides” bullshit. You have a much better chance of having a better outcome with Kamala. Trump 100% does not care about Palestinians. Kamala will at least give some effort to negotiate.

I won’t say she won’t, but we really can’t tell. So far she hasn’t said anything that implies she’ll do anything different from Biden.

Just as much effort as Biden which would be next to nothing other than strong words in press to save faces and billions of dollars worth of weapons.

At least Trump will not be a hypocrite.

With Harris it is an open question, with Trump it’s a done deal. There is also the difference in how they will treat Palestinian protestors.

Standing with Israel means putting up with things like the Lavon Affair (they planned to blow up US assets), The USS Liberty incident (they killed US Navy personnel in international waters), The Apollo affair (they stole US Uranium), and the US child sex trafficking done by Epstein and Ghislain (her father was Robert Maxwell - a mossad guy).

…as well as genocide done in the name of the big five members of the military industrial complex, Lockheed, Boeing, Raytheon, General Dynamics, and Northropp Grumman.
