Sounds familiar, hmmm...remember the Nixon goon squad "Canuck letter?"

Roger Stone, a die-hard Trump phanboi.
G. Gordon Liddy is still alive also.

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
