    Biden's refunds amounted to about 2% compared to about 11% for Trump.


    Trump campaign issued $122 million in refunds to donors in 2020

    excerpt:

    "Among these people was Stacy Blatt, a 63-year-old patient in hospice care who donated $500 to the Trump campaign in September.

    In less than a month, however, the Times said the Trump campaign had withdrawn a total of $3,000 from Blatt.

    Blatt died from cancer in February.

    Trump continued to raise money after Election Day through what he claimed was an effort to fight widespread voter fraud in several states. He repeatedly claimed following the 2020 election that the contest had been tainted by widespread voter fraud.

    However, federal and state election officials have stated that there is no evidence to suggest that widespread voter fraud occurred.

    The Trump campaign allegedly used tens of millions of dollars from his “Stop the Steal” efforts to help cover the refunds owed to donors, according to the Times.

    In the final two and a half months of 2020, the Times found that the Trump campaign and the Republican National Committee issued more than 530,000 refunds worth roughly $64.3 million to online donors.

    According to the Times analysis, the Trump team in total refunded 10.7 percent of the money raised in 2020 on the Republican Party’s fundraising platform WinRed.

    In contrast, the Biden campaign refunded just 2.2 percent of its total 2020 donations, according to federal records reviewed by the Times."

    Trump received a handsome interest-free loan from donors in addition to all the donations he was able to keep.

    WinRed went way overboard with misleading information and sneaking in additional boxes to check if you wanted to opt in/out for recurring contributions. They played supporters, and counted on them to blindly contribute. Sad and quite sickening!!

    Trump started up the atmosphere of culture wars and singling out particular companies for punishment. He drew them into his culture wars, and now they have become active in them in ways that the GOP doesn't like.


    Republicans are threatening tax hikes and boycotts to punish companies that criticize restrictive voting laws

    excerpt:

    "The escalating battle over voting restrictions places the Republican Party in the unfamiliar position of going against some of the biggest names in corporate America. The party has long positioned itself as the champion of low corporate taxes and free enterprise.

    Among Trump's key policies as president was a huge 2017 corporate tax cut passed by the then-GOP-controlled Congress.

    In recent years some corporations have eschewed their usual neutrality to take positions on so called culture-war controversies.

    Trump during his presidency several times urged boycotts of companies he accused of opposing his administration's agenda, such as the tire firm Goodyear, and championed companies owned by allies and supporters."

    Trump rioter who allegedly used bear mace on police reported to be negotiating plea deal.



    Feds negotiating plea deal with man charged in Jan. 6 Capitol attack

    excerpt:

    "Federal prosecutors are negotiating a plea deal with an Indiana man charged with attacking Capitol police on Jan. 6, a federal court filing disclosed on Monday shows.

    Why it matters: The government’s ongoing plea negotiations with Jon Schaffer "are the first and most advanced plea negotiations involving any of the over 300 Capitol Riot defendants," Assistant U.S. Attorneys Ahmed Baset and Louis Manzo wrote in the brief, which was published publicly and then quickly removed from the docket BuzzFeed News reported."
