Election tampering full of KOCH? | PolitiScoop
This was a blatant attempt by individuals and organizations to tamper with today's primary election. With so much riding on the line, both Democrats and Republicans should be outraged at this nefarious attempt to again call into question the integrity of a Wisconsin election. http://www.politiscoop.com/com​ponent/content/article/35-last​-24h-news/395-election-tamperi​ng-full-of-koch.html

Those attacks were retribution, Anonymous said, because... the companies halted online donations during the WikiLeaks controversy, blocking contributions to Bradley Manning, the accused document leaker now in custody." http://technolog.msnbc.msn​.com/_news/2011/07/08/7043​037-anonymous-claims-hack-​on-fbi-partner-site-shares​-databasesSee More

      Thanks, Joyce McCloy! Kevin, with all due respect - you really should, as a general rule, google the info the folks here are providing before discrediting and challenging them and their sources outright. This seems to be a pattern, and coul...d easily be seen as disrespectful. I understand your reasons to mistrust assertions you've not heard of before, but the folks posting here generally know what they're talking. We have expert citizen observers posting here, and well...experts. All kinds. Try to have a little more faith in your fellow posters here at E.I., and please just do a simple google search. Anonymous has been incredibly active with the PAYPAL hack (and others) and it's pretty common knowledge. In fact, it caused a mass exodus from PAYPAL that I took part in months ago. People are STILL dropping PAYPAL like a hot potato...See More

It's really just the three of us with help from our members since we're just a volunteer citizen collective. We have no SHARE button (or LIKE button) because FB stripped the SHARE button from Group pages several weeks ago, gave us the "SUBSCRIBE" button instead.

      We have a TON of limitations here that make streamlining our networking a bit messy, as you have been quick to point out. You're 100% correct, btw, and I've been doing everything in my power, working on grants and funding till I've gone car...pel tunnel limp trying to get us a centralized site in addition to this forum. We are thrilled that so many peeps have found us - keep in mind we just started this FB page on April 10th in response to the SC anomalies our experts like Karen Smith and Richard Charnin were tracking.See More

      Yah, it doesn't seem to do anything. I think it just connects you to the poster, somehow links you to the posts or the person you're "subscribing" to but there is no visible action - can't determine the functionality. Facebook was never int...ended to be used this way (was meant for spying on ex-boyfriends and old classmates) tho' it's WONDERFUL that it's given us the ability to find one another and share info for free. The FB algorithm is inspired - grows our membership just by virtue of the number of people seeing our posts...See More

      ‎...on the downside, we lose posts from the fast scroll, hard to cache anything and keep the most pertinent, curated info up top (thanks to Roberta Retrum for all the info / links that help us attempt do this) and we can not vet members - h...as to stay an "open group" in order to grow, which we like...so this is NOT a secure network for this kind of communique. Still, we're doing ok considering we have so much on our plate, so few resources, no money a 'tall and very few trolls trying to divert and divide us. Still, this is not ideal...trying to fix, but not sure it's within my power to do so.See More

Who’s behind all those school voucher bills? Koch, Scaife, DeVos & other far-right billionaires… :: News From Underground

"The DeVos family crusade to eradicate public education has targeted Pennsylvania, and a voucher bill may come to a vote in the PA Senate as early as Tuesday. It’s being marketed as a solution to save public schools, but the big donors are tied to right-wing think tanks that openly advocate, and strategize, the end of public education. How can vouchers improve public schools if the people mobilizing the movement intend to eradicate public education? Regardless of your personal stance on “school choice,” it’s important to know who is behind the voucher movement and the agenda they don’t share with the public or advertise in their media campaigns."

A lot of people are talking about Frank Rich’s explosive new article in New York magazine. I think it is a remarkable thing, the latest and maybe the most comprehensive in an increasingly lengthy series of articles and investigations into the Obama administration’s failure to properly investigate the causes of the financial crisis.

Recall Election Information | Defend Wisconsin
Six Republican senators and three Democratic senators face recall elections in the largest recall season in Wisconsin history. If Democrats can hold onto their seats and take three more, they will regain control of the state Senate. That would give them a counterweight to the agenda of Walker, which has seen virtually no opposition as the GOP controls both houses of the Legislature. You can learn more about the candidates here, and read the nine reasons to reclaim Wisconsin for the people.

"The excitable David Prosser, who once, middle finger protruding, rushed forward while shouting at the acting Assembly chair, "No way! No way! I will I meet in your office" shouted Prosser. I am not speculating--I was there and so was our videographer. Prosser did not like the idea of "liberals" with a camera capturing the floor debate on the budget." Ed Garvey

"Meanwhile, the Wisconsin Bankers Association has been busy as bees persuading legislators that Wisconsin will be a better place when shareholder banks take over those tight-fisted credit unions. What’s that, you ask? Why would a credit union, my credit union for example, become a bank? Are credit unions for sale? (I must check eBay.) Well, not exactly for sale but Governor Scott Walker with help from the Fitz boys slipped a provision into the budget that will make it easier for the “wise” credit union directors to “convert” a CU into a shareholder-owned bank if they feel like it. Who cares if the depositors want to convert? I am not making this up." Ed Garvey
