The way to do it is to pull their tax preferences. Got to leave the churches alone and a few legitimate charities but all the activist ones and their contributors have got to pay.
Hi Gio, I mean that God wants us to fight for goodness and even if we don’t win the fights on earth, we are doing our part to have a better chance of getting to Heaven. I learned as early as parochial grade school that there are two lives; a very short one here in earth and an eternal one of wonderfulness in Heaven or abject despair and suffering in Hell; I concluded I wanted Heaven. And I see fighting the good fight as fighting for goodness. God bless you, amigo.
Just posted this comment on another stack...I"m a former Dem who had my first and only panic attack when DJT won in 2016. I was OVERJOYED when he was defeated in 2020.. and I laughed to myself today as I cast my ballot for him, realizing that even a few months ago I couldn't have conceived I would be voting for him and really hoping he wins.
Almost no one I know would suspect this vote.
I'm guessing and hoping there are many more "hidden" R votes like mine today.
That was me in 2020. I voted Gary Johnson in 2016. I remember thinking about 6 months out to the election I thought "Am I really going to vote for Trump?". When election day arrived, I would've crawled through razor wire.
#1/#2 (tied): freedom of speech/press; bodily autonomy in terms of vaccine choice.
I also fear the ever-increasing "woke-ism" and cancel culture.
I spent the past couple of months coming to grips with my TDS and realizing how much media manipulation had shaped my opinion of him. I still don't love him, but I now realize so much of my opinion wasn't my own.
RFK joining the team was a HUGE draw for me. I felt dubious initially, but once it seemed like Trump was taking MAHA seriously, that made a very big difference (and regardless - Kamala sure wasn't going to care about any of the RFK issues!). I think the MAHA platform could honestly transform America all by itself (it any of that stuff can get through legislation).
It's hard to make the choice to swim upstream when most of your loved ones suffer from severe TDS - even if you're thinking you're making the right choice. Ultimately I HAD to cast this vote, because I live in a swing state and I really, really didn't want her to win.
And I felt at peace with it today. That was the part that surprised me. It took me a while to get from "I'll just hold my nose, oh my gosh, I can't believe I'm even considering this" to "This could lead to really big changes." Hopefully good ones :)
Thanks, Sasha. Not just for posting with courage and at a significant cost to you, but also for sharing your immense talent in creativity, building a brand and developing and fostering a robust subscriber community.
I'm cautiously optimistic. I just don't understand why any woman would want the first female president to be a moron! It's like Meygn Kelly said today. She'll set women back decades
Spot on. She's a vapid, empty woman who has been given access to power through sleeping with the married mayor of San Francisco right after she graduated law school. It's every stereotype about female success.
Cobalt blue Massachusetts here. I voted an R ticket, except for those Ds running unopposed; for them I just left the bubble blank. My vote has no chance to give Trump/Vance any electoral votes from MA, but it’ll count toward the popular vote.
I’m a socially liberal libertarian who has voted L my entire life. I’m 43 years old. Voting Republican for the first time tonight.
I went to vote at 6:30 am this morning in PA and polls opened at 7. By that time the one line was out the school door and to the street. To me, the vast majority looked like hard-working conservatives rushing to vote and get to work in the private sector (since the public sector is closed today).
Take solace in the likelihood that no matter the outcome of this election, legacy media numbers are toast, no one takes them seriously or ever will. It's over.
That doesn't mean they disappear, they will probably get income from elsewhere, but no one watches them, so who cares?
It doesn't matter. The school system still brainwashed and is a toxic sewer that raises these zombie lemmings. Even without the media they see still brainwashed. It starts young.
I saw posts on FB, which I have not used for a decade, stating that Trump is going to put people into concentration camps.
These people are beyond reach. Almost all of them are women, boomer/x-gen, mostly childless and divorced, living in extremely liberal regions, Madison, WI, NYC, Telluride in my case.
They are not stupid. They are mostly 'well educated' i.e. credentialed, highly indoctrinated and more invested in the shitty status quo. ... They have become the same people I routinely mocked while in university, for all the same reasons. Perpetually juvenile in many ways even though they have 'respectable' careers.
I rarely talk to them now and never about politics.
I'm feeling very calm today. Which is kinda crazy after the last go-round. But I feel in my gut that we got this. I feel it will be bigger than they think. I sure hope I'm right.
Also Steve Bannon is on X right now live: https://x.com/Bannons_WarRoom/status/1853923096895344719
I’m a nervous wreck!
Worst, if Trump loses I will be convinced that all the strategically place illegals will vote Harris and push her over the line
I keep praying for our nation
I’ll probably listen to Megyn Kelly- she’s been so impressive
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Philippians 4:6
100%! God has a plan and He's working His plan.
Amen….
Amen!!!!
That's true. But remember, God spared him from two assassination attempts, and it had to be for more than playing golf at Mar-a-Lago.
Same!
I'm a quiet wreck. The only Trump supporter in my house. Really wish I could blast the streams and put on my MAGA hat.
You have all the rest of with you, Mrs M.
Mrs. Miller-we are w/ you!! Hang in there!!!
The illegals won’t vote. The NGO that shipped them I. Will vote for them. Tightening that screw should be one of Trumps highest priorities
The DOJ sued the state of Virginia when Virginia tried to purge illegal aliens from the voting rolls
They most certainly are voting
The NGOs are the key problem. Here and all over the world.
Yes. They deserve some *severe* regulation. Or maybe a temporary banning while we sort things out ...
The way to do it is to pull their tax preferences. Got to leave the churches alone and a few legitimate charities but all the activist ones and their contributors have got to pay.
That would reduce their money, but not (on a percentage basis) by a lot.
Mostly they are 401c(3). Their operations are exempt but the big deal is that contributions are deductible.
Since we are fighting the Good Fight, we cannot really lose the essential fight.

This is a fight between good and evil.
When illegals are given driver’s licenses and they know if trump wins they could be deported; whereas Harris wants to reward them with amnesty
Of course they have plenty of motivation to vote- and how is proof even possible?
That's why they were allowed into the country. To permanently change the electorate.
And do you think that any judge will hear it if they do? Overwhelming or nothing.
Real Clear Politics is also up now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKJA57MpxeA
I have been watching RCP in real time for hours.
RCP is slow, but generally accurate. Although, i'd like to find the raw vote there. I'll look around.
All you have to do is refresh your screen from time to time.

I voted for Gary in 2016 too (even though he's a big "meh"!) then Trump in 2020. Almost always voted 3rd party (NYS-so what does it matter?)
Well done. Excellent reasons and rational thinking.
Once you look from the outside, TDS is quite scary how it robs the individual of all rational thinking.
Count me in as well. Life long liberal voted Trump and Republican all the way down in ballot in Chicago!
Oh my gosh...I wonder if people like us are helping make the difference...
The description of your path is exactly mine. Life long Democrat … voted all Republican this year.
I think there might be a surprising number of us...
I was a two time Obama guy, and a Kerry guy when I was 18 (shudder!)
What changed your vote to Trump?
#1/#2 (tied): freedom of speech/press; bodily autonomy in terms of vaccine choice.
I also fear the ever-increasing "woke-ism" and cancel culture.

and look at Megyn Kelly!! Damn she really spoke her truth as to why she was on team Trump!
Bridget-- I pray that you are correct and there are many more of "you" out there!!
Thank you, Sasha Stone, for your courage. God bless you.

Right! Of ALL the women, this is the woman you want to be the first? If she wins, HRC will literally die inside!
Spot on. She's a vapid, empty woman who has been given access to power through sleeping with the married mayor of San Francisco right after she graduated law school. It's every stereotype about female success.

I'm in Mass too. Mass will stay blue forever. Lizzie Warren is going to win, sadly.
boo-hoo!!!
This state is the worst
I went to vote at 6:30 am this morning in PA and polls opened at 7. By that time the one line was out the school door and to the street. To me, the vast majority looked like hard-working conservatives rushing to vote and get to work in the private sector (since the public sector is closed today).
Good!
Watching the Daily Wire report and listening to these Kamala Harris voters. Good Lord, they're stupid.
Pennsylvania in the house 🇺🇸
Pittsburgh here!
Did you vote???
Of course! Friday night for Trump.
Thank you!!!!!
I’ll be watching Tucker on TV & following Matt & Walter commentary on my phone.
Do you know that they'll be on? Last night's program was removed because of an NBC copyright strike.
They’re on at 8, but not sure if they’ll have a YouTube link
Taibbi/Kirn had a strike?
Take solace in the likelihood that no matter the outcome of this election, legacy media numbers are toast, no one takes them seriously or ever will. It's over.
That doesn't mean they disappear, they will probably get income from elsewhere, but no one watches them, so who cares?
I hope it's the end for them.
It doesn't matter. The school system still brainwashed and is a toxic sewer that raises these zombie lemmings. Even without the media they see still brainwashed. It starts young.
School choice will be yuuuuge under Trump.
I saw posts on FB, which I have not used for a decade, stating that Trump is going to put people into concentration camps.
These people are beyond reach. Almost all of them are women, boomer/x-gen, mostly childless and divorced, living in extremely liberal regions, Madison, WI, NYC, Telluride in my case.
How do people become this delusional? Amazing.
They are brainwashed and have TDS. It's truly mindblowing.
They are not stupid. They are mostly 'well educated' i.e. credentialed, highly indoctrinated and more invested in the shitty status quo. ... They have become the same people I routinely mocked while in university, for all the same reasons. Perpetually juvenile in many ways even though they have 'respectable' careers.
I rarely talk to them now and never about politics.
Don’t forget Bongino on rumble!
Unfortunately Rumble doesn't allow me to embed. I hate that.
