Donald Trump may have scared off most of his millionaire and billionaire buddies, uh, you
know, with the whole January 6th thing, but he still has a couple millionaires in his
back pocket that are out there willing to help him out in any way possible.
One of those people happens to be former overstock.com, CEO Patrick burn, who is funding, a group
called the America project and the America project.
Their goal is to recruit and train Republican activists, to serve as, uh, poll Watchers
for the upcoming midterms and beyond.
Now this is a project, not necessarily the America project, but the idea behind it that
we have spoken about at length here at ring of fire for well over a year at this point,
Republicans have been working, you know, with Patrick burn and without him, Patrick burn,
I think has already donated millions by the way, to this America project to get this happening.
But, uh, the goal is they want to have these Republicans show up at polling places, you
know, under the guise of being pole Watchers, but basically harass and intimidate people.
You know, we have seen training documents from other Republicans, right?
We have seen the videos.
We've heard the audio that's been released from their little secret meetings that they
have where they're telling people go up, get in people's faces and ask them, are you even
eligible to vote?
Have you ever been to jail?
Have you been arrested?
Are you a former felon?
Are you an actual citizen?
Do you think this is your correct polling place?
Cuz I don't know if it is to create confusion with these voters to scare them into leaving.
That's the point of it.
And of course that is voter intimidation.
That is voter harassment.
Those are things that are 100% illegal if they occur now again so far, this group has
not yet put their plan into action.
So it is legally speaking unfair to say that they are going to intimidate and harass voters.
But based on what we have seen in the evidence, the videos, again, the audio, the memos they've
put out a lot of the groups involved, not just America project have said, go and do
all of this, which would by definition be voter harassment.
Intimidation, I think is the technical term.
So there's that because this is all Republicans have left, right?
They're the ones who wanna scream at their top.
The top of their lungs, that all Democrats are stealing elections and they're cheating.
They're the ones doing it.
They literally have plans in place.
They've held meetings about how they're going to cheat to win.
So I will end this with the same advice I always give out on this subject.
If you are standing in line to vote and somebody comes up and asks you a question, are you
eligible to vote?
Have you ever been arrested?
Have you ever done X, Y or Z?
Don't answer.
You are under no legal obligation whatsoever
To answer any questions from anyone with of course the exception of the person at the
desk, who hands you, your ballot, who asks for your name?
That is the only person you need to talk to do not let these people intimidate or harass
you.
And of course, as the election gets closer, we will be providing phone numbers here at
ring of fire.
We'll we'll put them under the community tab on our page for people to, to write these
down, you know, keep them saved in your phone.
These election integrity hotlines that will be able to help you.
If you do encounter this kind of intimidation and harassment, and they might be able to
get law enforcement out there for you.
So again, keep posting on that.
We will post the phone numbers of, of the, the real groups that can help you with this.
And other than that, you don't answer any questions other than what is your name, that's
all you have to answer.
You don't owe these people on the streets, harassing you in line.
You don't give them anything.
