  6. I am a blue voter my whole life & through #midterms completely and I will not vote for a #Republican for the rest of my life. But there are 50 or more planned, forming, or existing with #FEC paperwork micro #campaigns already. #MissKitty is one. #Blue #Wave #midterm and then it is the wild west.

  7. Все об устройстве WSPR с примерами на Python (часть 2)

    WSPR — цифровой протокол, разработанный Джо Тейлором (K1JT) в 2008-2009 годах, с целью исследования распространения радиосигналов от коротковолновых передатчиков малой и сверхмалой мощности. В предыдущей части были рассмотрены механизмы помехозащищенного кодирования данных и формирования сигнала для отправки его в эфир. В этой части статьи рассматриваются механизмы детектирования и декодирования принимаемого из сигнала. Статья может быть интересна радиолюбителям, как знакомым, так и не знакомым с WSPR, а также тем, кто интересуется темой цифровой обработки сигналов и хочет понять устройство этого протокола.

  8. The Crypto industry is already engaged in building up and spending SuperPAC money to influence the upcoming 2026 elections with ~ $3 million already spent primarily on special elections in Florida and Virginia.

    Crypto PACs claim they already have $221M cash on hand with an additional
    $100M "committed" but not yet reported publicly.

    Fun Fact: Fairshake, (the largest Crypto PAC by far) is now the #5 most-funded PAC in the country.

    Here is a great tracking web site updated regularly and shows where the $$ are coming from and where they are going to. followthecrypto.org/ #Crypto #Politics #SuperPACS #PACs #FairShake #FollowTheCrypto #CitiationNeeded #MollyWhite #FEC #Elections #2026MidTerms

  9. Все об устройстве Q65 с примерами на Python (часть 3)

    Q65 — цифровой протокол, разработанный Джо Тейлором (K1JT) и его командой в 2021 году для проведения минимальных связей в условиях сложных трасс прохождения радиосигнала. В предыдущих частях цикла были рассмотрены структура протокола, алгоритмы формирования сигнала, механизмы компенсации эффекта Доплера, синхронизация и детектирование сигнала в условиях быстрых затуханий сигналов. В этой части статьи рассматривается механизм декодирования данных Q-ary Repeat Accumulation кодов протокола Q65. Статья может быть интересна радиолюбителям, людям, интересующимся темой цифровой обработки сигналов и кодами коррекции ошибок.

  10. Montana Has an Ambitious Plan to End Dark Money in Elections

    Fifteen years after a landmark Supreme Court case turbocharged corporate spending in the political process, a group hopes it may have a way to finally rein in some of the outsized influence of the ultrawealthy. The 2010 ruling on Citizens United v. FEC opened the floodgates of political spending in elections. Every year since then, untraceable financial political contributions…

  11. #Trump’s super #PAC is sitting on about $200 million that it can spend against his rivals, giving a term-limited president a never-before-seen amount of #power in his party’s finances and future.

    In the first half of 2025, Trump’s group, #MAGA Inc., collected about $177 million from the likes of #ElonMusk, Trump’s erstwhile ally, the #TikTok investor #JeffreyYass & the #SiliconValley execs #BenHorowitz & #MarcAndreessen, according to a filing on Thursday with the #FEC.

    #MoveOn is demanding swift action from the #FEC and #IRS in response to four complaints filed by End Citizens United (ECU), which detail alleged illegal coordination and support between Republican operatives and #JillStein, #CornelWest, and #RFKJr campaigns.

    Stein, West, and RFK Jr. "have been willingly co-opted by #MAGA Republicans…effort to play fast and loose with election law to prop up 3rd-party candidates is nothing less than an assault on our democracy…”

  13. The revelations from American Muckrakers go beyond simple political #bias & into outright collaboration between #Trump, #Republicans & #Rasmussen, explaining the organization’s overt partisan change. It would seem to invite possible legal trouble for Rasmussen too, although there’s no shortage of #conservative #judges & #lawyers ready to shield it from consequences.

  14. Earlier this year, the polling aggregator 538 dropped #Rasmussen Reports from its averages & forecasts, saying that the firm couldn’t meet 538’s standards for #objectivity & methodology. This drew a major backlash from #RightWing #media, especially after Rasmussen published a letter from 538 asking the #polling firm questions about its procedures & biases.

  15. #Rasmussen has long been criticized for its #polling, which focuses on “likely voters,” & for skewing toward older Americans & providing favorable results to #conservatives. During the #Trump admin, its website became overtly supportive of the #RightWing, w/many of its #polls sponsored by #conservative personalities & causes. On socialmedia, Rasmussen appeared to legitimize many #ConspiracyTheories on the right, such as election fraud & vaccine denialism.

  16. One of the emails details close collaboration between the #Trump campaign, #Rasmussen, & the #Heartland Institute, which calls itself a national free-market public #policy *think tank*. However, it’s also a 501(c)3 *#nonprofit* & is not allowed to engage in #political activity benefiting a political #candidate.

  17. …American Muckrakers posted about emails it received detailing how the conservative-leaning #Rasmussen Reports, which claims to be nonpartisan, shared #polling results w/ #Trump advisers & campaign ofcls like Dan Scavino, Susie Wiles, & John McLaughlin. The advisers, Rasmussen, & the *#nonprofit* organizations that pay it for polling are violating #tax & election #law….

  18. Major #Conservative #Poll Cited by #Media Secretly Worked With #Trump Team

    Leaked emails reveal the truth about #Rasmussen Reports—& the way the Trump campaign is breaking election #law.

    A major #polling organization is reportedly giving Trump’s campaign previews of its results before the public sees them.

  19. #Crypto Money Is Poised to #Influence the #Election

    #RyanSelkis, a #cryptocurrency exec, was eating dinner at Mar-a-Lago last month when he got an unexpected invitation: #Trump wanted him to come to the stage & say a few words.

    #Selkis, who runs the crypto data firm #Messari, was at an event for Trump’s #NFTs.

    “There’s 50 million crypto holders in the US. That’s a lot of voters,” Selkis declared.

  20. The #CitizensUnited decision — which extended #FreeSpeechRights to #corporations, #nonprofits & #unions — effectively curbed efforts to rein in #political spending, while paving the way for follow-up rulings from courts & the #FEC that would unleash additional billions of dollars in donations. Those donors would spawn a boom in #TaxExempt#charitable” & “#SocialWelfare” groups as vehicles for spending on political activity.

  21. Newly Surfaced Recording Reveals ALEC and GOP Election Attorneys Working with State Legislators to Question Validity of Election

    The revelations were presented during a February 2020 Council for National Policy strategy session about elections.

    @JamieCORY

    American Legislative Exchange Council (#ALEC) CEO #LisaNelson told a room full of conservative activists that ALEC had been working with three GOP attorneys on “action items that legislators can take to question the validity of an election.”

    The comments were made during a strategy session about elections at the Council for National Policy.

    Nelson told the group, “obviously we all want President Trump to win and win the national vote. But it's very clear from all the comments and all the suggestions up front that really when it comes down to is the states and the state legislators.”

    She added that they’ve been working with Former #FEC Member and #HeritageFoundation attorney #HansVonSpoksky, former Federal Election Commission member #BradSmith, and GOP attorney #CletaMitchell “trying to identify what are those action items that legislators can take in their states.”

    “They can write a letter to the secretary of state questioning the validity of an election and saying what did happen that night,” Nelson said.

    “So we are drafting a lot of those things. If you have ideas in that area, let us know and we'll get those to the state legislators and they can start to kind of exercise their political muscle in that area"

  22. The Federal Election Commission has allowed committees to not itemize subvendor payments when those payments are an extension of the original vendor’s work.

    But in recent years, this interpretation of the law has widened into a gaping #loophole that campaigns are exploiting.

    Experts say it is illegal for campaigns to pay campaign staff members through #limited #liability companies, or for vendors to serve merely as #conduits to hide the ultimate recipient of campaign money.

    In recent years, the #FEC., whose six commissioners are #deadlocked between the parties three to three, has essentially allowed campaigns to get away with minimal disclosures.
