True the Vote originated in my part of Texas and I had 60+ poll watchers out in the 2012 election to prevent these assholes from trying to intimidate votes. These assholes are being referred by a GOP Attorney General to the FBI for several crimes

This will not be the first time, or even the third or eighth time, you have read about Cathy Engelbrecht here at the beauty salon. Shes been on our radar for ten years when she was speaking in church basements and VFW halls in the Houston area, pushing the idea that its too damn easy to vote. She would get the attendees name and addresses, mostly very old people, and send them requests for money. She didnt like my questions and quickly named me that woman and told people I was a reporter as she rolled her eyes.
She had difficulty giving me any examples of the horror of illegal voting that she claimed was killing America. I could give her a couple of examples that happened right in her neighborhood, but they were both Republicans. She quickly informed me that she wasnt talking about just two people, she was talking about hundreds, thousands. She just didnt know any of them.
And then the third example hit. The Republican man she was personally supporting for county commissioner voted in two states for three elections and I had his signature to prove it. I wrote about it in the newspaper and he was defeated soundly.
I once described her as an attractive woman with a dollar sign on her forehead. She always had her hand out. She was far more concerned with raising money than illegal voting.
And now the Washington Post says shes being sued for taking $2 million from a donor and producing the same thing I saw her produce diddle squat.

Neo-Republican companies like this are how Republicans in Congress force taxpayers to contribute to their campaign.
They disguise the campaign as a charity and dont pay taxes like everyone else.
Well, everyone else except Amazon and oligarchs. But I repeat myself.

Republican candidates for top statewide offices in Arizona have said they believe what they saw in the election-conspiracy movie "2000 Mules."
Now, the state Attorney General's Office is asking the FBI and IRS for investigations of the group behind the movie, True the Vote, noting that it has repeatedly rebuffed all requests to share the documentary's alleged evidence and has raised "considerable sums of money" based on claims of having that evidence.
"Given TTV's status as a nonprofit organization, it would appear that further review of its financials may be warranted," wrote Reginald "Reggie" Grigsby, chief special agent of the office's Special Investigations Section.
The film, released in May and thoroughly debunked by experts and media organizations, claims mobile-phone data obtained by the group shows a coordinated effort by hundreds of people around the country deemed "mules" to stuff election drop boxes with ballots for candidate Joe Biden in 2020. True the Vote's representatives said they would use their findings to make elections more secure.
