Kirk recently said on his podcast that those from Turning Point got back on their buses & left following the conclusion of the rally.”
Here are some of the mainstream donor advised funds who contributed to Turning Point USA, a cosponsor of the protest that preceded the deadly attack on the Capitol.

They helped anonymize contributions for donors.
These numbers are just from each group's most recent tax filing.

How did 26-year-old Charlie Kirk go from living with his parents to a waterfront condo? Over a short period of time, his pay from the pro-Trump charity he co-founded rose to 300k. https://t.co/k9UO83awsi

This. Read the Denver Post piece. It is brazen. 4/
Good lord, when you read their comments, they are like, no big deal, totally not a crime to falsify voting data. Normalizing committing crimes with legalese.

Very good that Rep Raskin is showing the long, consistent history of Trump instigating violence. This context is necessary. They should extend documentation to Trump's advisors -- like Roger Stone calling for a "bloodbath" since 2016 if Trump loses an election #ImpeachmentTrial

Good afternoon, followers of frivolous election litigation. There's a last-minute entry in the competition for dumbest pre-inauguration lawsuit - a totally loony effort to apparently leave the entire USA without a government.
We'll start with the complaint in a minute.
But first, I want to give you a quick explanation for why I'm going to keep talking about these cases even after the inauguration.
They're part of an ongoing effort - one that's not well-coordinated but is widespread - to discredit our fundamental system of government.
It's a direct descendent, in more ways than one, of birtherism. And here's the thing about birtherism. It might have been a joke to a lot of people, but it was extremely pernicious. It obviously validated the racist "not good enough to be President" crowd. But that wasn't all.
Don't get me wrong, that was bad enough. Validating racism helped put the kind of shitbird who would tweet this from an official government account into power. But it didn't stop
Woke-ism, multiculturalism, all the -isms \u2014 they're not who America is. They distort our glorious founding and what this country is all about. Our enemies stoke these divisions because they know they make us weaker. pic.twitter.com/Mu97xCgxfS

(Also, if you agree with Pompeo about multiculturalism - the legendary melting pot - not being what this country is all about, you need to stop following me now. And maybe go somewhere and think about your life choices and what made you such a tool.)
