I just saw this option when posting in a Seattle reddit. I wonder if anyone gets notifications.
Not sure where to post this, though I think the idea should be far and wide. Trying to pin Trump down by "proving" he actually planned the insurrection riots is a mistake. They won't be able to do that. They can say he dragged his feet in responding. That's about it.
What needs to happen is legislation that targets making unfounded claims. No legislator, much less head of State, should make sustained, unfounded claims about verifiable matters of fact. We should not be hearing about Trump's "election lies" in the news as if that's a normal thing.
There have to be rules of arriving at a determination of true malfeasance. Opining doesn't yet amount to a full out unfounded claim. The unfounded claim must be repeated. It must rise to a certain level. It must have to do with matters of fact that are verifiable and, most likely, have been verified.
It's that simple. Going after Trump as if he actually plotted the insurrection is a mistake and is likely to fail. Going after Alex Jones for unfounded claims was successful in civil court (so far). Unfounded claims in medicine are crimes. They must be made so in politics/governance.

Restoring a Demoralized America's goals as an NGO's are 3 parts.
Tools
a news information tool that's very different from anything else that exists, to give an idea of the design schema we're following look at a cyber threat map
Civic Engagement
For our users there will be an integrated social media platform exclusively for civic engagement with local, state, and federal government. Participating members of government can post content, create groups, policy tags users can follow, and users can utilize specific tools to communicate and engage with government.
History
Our goal is to provide new ways to understand the history that brought us here and uncover the fallacies of modern American life. This part of our mission is necessary to further enhance public understanding of national and foreign policy initiatives.
We need to raise $2,000 to file all of the legal paperwork.
Once we raise the funds to establish ourselves as a legal NGO, we will launch a KickStarter campaign to raise $60,000 to fund the development of a web based tool. This number is based on cost estimates and will be itemized for the KickStarter. It will be an information and civic engagement platform. This money will be used to hire developers and fund operational resources. I will not be taking a salary from this in any way. My compensation will be limited to a laptop, cell phone, and mobile hotspot strictly for the purpose of managing "Restoring A Demoralized America NFP" and working with the talent team we organize. My compensation per the current draft of the charter will remain $0 until the following annual board member election. While my position will be uncompensated, I will retain the right to use retained capital for necessary travel expenses.
We will be committed to financial transparency, operational transparency, and work to make it very clear who we are working with and what we are working with them to do.
Once our charter drafts are finalized they will be made public.

Between not disclosing what agency they’re with and making arrests on questionable grounds, people are asking what the law is. Here is exactly what’s happening.

A staple of Democratic debates is to point out the fact that Amazon doesn’t pay taxes. A combination of a massive backlog of tax credits that they ran out of this year, qualifying for corporate tax credits incentivizing innovation and paying employees with stock options, and deferring the bulk of their taxes because of their investment in equipment has kept their taxes low. Here’s an analysis of their tax strategy.
Have you noticed that your phone has been blowing up the last few years with scam calls from your area code? Well, congress is on the verge of solving that problem by passing the “Pallone-Thune TRACED Act”. This act was designed to combat robocalls and spoofed phone numbers, by requiring phone companies to verify that phone numbers are real and block robocalls. It also pushes the Justice Department to bring more criminal prosecutions against robocallers and gives the Federal Communications Commission more time and authority to investigate and punish illegal robocallers. Here are the details of what’s going on.

Attention all MMJ patients in the State of Washington, with the passing of I-502 the government has now effectively rendered the MMJ community helpless. With the drastically reduced amounts of medicine that patients can possess along with the complete elimination of all collective gardens and home grows this law has truly become a wolf in sheep's clothing. We need support from all patients in this State, please help by contacting both of our Senators and emailing the Washington State Liquor Control Board.
