Tired of the toxicity of social media? Why not join Ricochet for just $5/month? Think of it as an online bar. Come in, have a drink, hang out, say whatever you want. But don’t badger, bully, or berate the other drinkers. That's our only rule.
In the latest, exciting episode of Liberty Doll, our eponymous heroine covers the grift of gun control in America. Thanks to DOGE and DataRepublican, we can see the network of government funds, funneled through "charitable" organizations, that fund what is clearly (and likely has always been) an astro-turf gun control movement.
I am thoroughly disgusted that my taxes are used to fund gun control, while at the same time I have to pay out of pocket to support gun rights organizations. The whole gun control movement is a fraud; a coordinated effort of government-funded gun control groups, media, political and legal action. Against this we have what are genuine grass-roots gun rights organizations pushing back against that juggernaut.
Now, I'm sure that some of the commenters here will call Liberty Doll a grifter, that if you don't blindly trust the government it's because your a tinfoil-hat, un-American cretin who hates mom and apple pie.
The problem with such criticisms is that now, thanks to DOGE and DataRepublican, we have the receipts. There is no more plausible deniability. The conspiracy is real.

I already have the nickname CB, short for Conspiracy Bob. Since Trump won his second term I'm hearing it less. I think Musk is helping.

I only follow six people on YouTube. Liberty Doll is one of them.

I’m just more and more shocked every day. We all knew it was bad, but we had no idea. The thought of all the leftie and NGO grifters losing their tax money is thrilling. No wonder they tried to kill him.

I suppose if I had grown comfortable with a spot at the public teat, I'd be outraged too.

I dont think they'd imagined that he'd get after US AID like this. They'd weathered Republican administrations before, without even a second glance. This is beyond the pale of their imaginations - they had no conception that this could happen... The agencies need to be pulled in.
And as I suggested several months ago - when it became public here, that the Public Library (which was forced to be closed for 6 weeks because of a data breach) and zoo were making political donations to the NDP... I wanted that organizations that are funded by tax revenues - be prohibited from political donations...
