All the “stops”, “Blocks,” “ended”, “requires” make make my head spin.

If I read it right, there was a 40-year-old IRS rule that required social-welfare groups, labor unions and business associations to identify donors contributing more than $5,000.

It seems like that is a good thing. Why would the Trump administration want to end that sunshine?

Not passing judgement one way or the other, but here is a thought. Every regulation has a cost and Trump has been all about reducing regulation and cost to business. So I see a good side to this. If you are concerned about certain "charitable foundations" hiding donor lists and using the funds for political reasons, then I can understand your question. I think legally they may fall under a different set of rules, but cheaters always gonna find a way to cheat.

Our Fascist Democrat enemies want to punish ANYONE who is on the other side.

This is an actual thing. Destroying someone's business would be done gleefully using the social media platforms of FascistBuch and Twitter.

The fascist Twitter mob is right now tearing up some actor/television host named Mario Lopez because he had the temerity during a June interview with Candace Owens to talk about "gender expression" in children: "if you're 3 years old and you’re saying you’re feeling a certain way or you think you’re a boy or a girl or whatever the case may be, I just think it's dangerous as a parent to make this determination then, well, OK, then you’re going to a boy or a girl, whatever the case may be ... It's sort of alarming and my gosh, I just think about the repercussions later on.”

He added, “When you’re a kid ... you don’t know anything about sexuality yet. You’re just a kid.”

All the virtue signalers are trashing him, and probably want him fired from his job...
