‘Stop the steal’ disinformation campaign connected to Roger Stone

It is an internet battle cry: Stop the Steal has swept across inboxes, Facebook pages and Twitter like an out-of-control virus, spreading misinformation and violent rhetoric — and spilling into real life, like the protest planned for DC this weekend.
But while Stop the Steal may sound like a new 2020 political slogan to many, it did not emerge organically over widespread concerns about voting fraud in President Donald Trump's race against Joe Biden. It has been in the works for years.
Its origin traces to Roger Stone, a veteran Republican operative and self-described "dirty trickster" whose 40-month prison sentence for seven felonies was cut short by Trump's commutation in July.
Stone's political action committee launched a "Stop the Steal" website in 2016 to fundraise ahead of that election, asking for $10,000 donations by saying, "If this election is close, THEY WILL STEAL IT."

    1. @Blue 101 lol Doncha understand how this works? You can’t block comments. Its still there. You just can’t see it anymore. You can turn a blind eye if you like, blue, but it isn’t going away.
      Congradulations, you learned something today.😁

    1. @Jka Vill why don’t you go prove it in court. Oh yeah. You can’t because you don’t have a fucking evidence because it doesn’t exist. Trump lawyers arw actually admitting in court that it doesn’t exist 😂

    1. AOC and Sanders are not socialists, they are social-democrats., big difference. Still, what’s wrong with jobs for all, healthcare for all, controlling surplus and demand to better suit our needs? What’s wrong with workers ruling instead of lawyers, business owners and other capitalists? Sure, capitalism was an advancement over feudalism, but it’s usefulness has passed. It’s time for all capitalists, including AOC and Sanders to be replaced by the working-class for the betterment of us all.

    2. @Jka Vill <<----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOT, IGNORE

  1. I sure wish someone would tell Roger he and all of his buddies are just not relevant anymore. Creating a catchy phrase is hardly proof.

    1. I went to high school with his granddaughter, and my younger brother was in the same athletics as her brother (Stone’s grandson). I have good news and bad news. The good news is that the granddaughter, my acquaintance, is a Bernie-loving leftist who is outstanding. The bad news is that her brother idolizes his grandfather and is basically aspiring to be a Roger Stone 2.0.

  2. Georgians, I am so proud of you. To think, your upcoming vote could result in such positive change – not just for Georgia, but for America, and for the World. *_The idea that your individual vote has such great power is just staggering to me. Please vote Warnock & Ossoff !_*

    1. I’m in ga & normally a republican but I voted Biden & then warnock & ossoff both, I’ll b votin the same way in Jan

  3. Trump’s got some nerve to cry “fraud” at the Democrats while he’s had a political operative on his payroll for both his campaigns who refers to himself as a “political dirty trickster”.
