It’s the left’s secret weapon in the continuing resistance.
While Facebook is getting a lot of the credit for making last weekend’s Women’s March happen, a somewhat obscure tech platform called the Action Network was critical to organizers’ efforts. And in the wake of that worldwide protest, the platform is already helping to push the movement forward.
A nonprofit created by progressives who hoped to build a political movement with staying power, the Action Network offers tools for sending emails, organizing marches and events, fundraising, creating petitions, conducting surveys and connecting with other organizers. Activists who use the tools can keep all the email lists and other data they gather ― a feature that Facebook and most other platforms don’t offer.
More than 650 women’s marches in more than 50 countries were organized using the site’s tools last Saturday, according to the network’s own data.
“This was the largest mobilization we’ve ever seen,” Brian Young, the Action Network’s co-founder, told The Huffington Post. Millions of people around the world turned out to march, according to multiple estimates.
Many of the Women’s March organizers used the Action Network’s tools to create embeddable sign-up widgets and maps, like the ones below, that helped spread the word about the events.

If it’s any good, we can use it too ... or duplicate it ... or improve upon it ...
BS. The Liberal Progressives “secret” weapon was vote fraud and still is. Trump is five steps ahead of these clowns!
Liberals do not know what they are so they have to define themselves as either Progressives, Centrist, or whatever. Conservatives OTOH just say they’re conservative. Period.
“Paging Guccifer 2.0.... please pick up the white courtesy phone...”
They can have all the secret communications tools they want.
We just need to bring them out into the open where we can pick them off 1 by 1. DJT is doing a masterful job of that.
Soros spent 90 funding the groups that paid for buses, ‘scholarships’ for college students to attend.
It was complete astro turf - like all the leftist ‘movements.’
There’s no secret weapon. They lost. They look like damn fools protesting the day after inauguration.
Trump’s nearing 60% approval rating. Will go higher as the wall goes up and crime goes down.
Or that anyone would rent to these harpies?
ROFL...Yep!!!
The only goal I could discern from the march was to let the world know how much they hate Trump and Trump voters, because Love, or something. Message received; mission accomplished. Other than that, nada.
SUBJECT: Collusion, conspiracy, overthrow of the US govt
IN RE: ACTION NETWORK subversive activities
REFERENCE: financial fraud, govt fraud, falsified documents, wire transfers, accounting fraud, etc.
NARRATIVE Taxpayers demand to know the scope and dimension of multiple conspiracies by the Action Netork to collude in sub rosa deals to personally profit and/or to facilitate terrorism schemes using public/govt monies.
OF INTEREST TO LAW ENFORCEMENT The FBI should interrogate connected individuals for evidence of multiple schemes to falsify official documents to further fraudulent schemes. The FBI should investigate any and all official documents Action Netork submits to official agencies and to the courts.
Crimes might include---conspiracy, collusion, falsifying official documents (a felony), financial fraud, govt fraud, money laundering, tax evasion, extortion, theft, misuse of tax-paid facilities, financing terrorism.....and the overthrow of the US government.
This is the Astroturfing Bot Network that Rush Limbaugh had exposed.
Nice memory...Sharpton’s group is the National Action Network
Hilariously weird 4Chan pranking of the Action Network taken seriously by leftists to commence in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...
Ooooooo...a secret weapon. Now they’ve got us beat for sure!
Sounds ripe for infiltration.
On the other hand, these clowns have constantly bragged about their prowess....but they only end up looking bad and turning people away.
<><> L/E needs to examine Action Network bank accounts.
<><> Joint A/N bank accounts might be used to facilitate the transfer funds from one account to another, and/or wire-transferred offshore;
<><> To cover their tracks, fake invoices might be created to show that money deposited into A/N accounts was being used for legitimate purposes.
<><> Financial schemes scheme might be advanced by issuing phony statements of payments from financial sources that actually covered the transfer of funds for insiders' personal use and/or for financing migrants from terrorist countries....for the express purpose of overthrowing the US government..
===============================================
NOTE WELL Under the Bank Secrecy Act, banks are required to establish, implement and maintain programs designed to detect and report suspicious activity indicative of money laundering and other financial crimes and financing terrorism. “The Bank Secrecy Act was enacted to protect the public from harm by identifying and detecting money laundering from criminal enterprises, terrorism, tax evasion or other unlawful activities,” the special agent in charge for Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation, explained.
Shady banking transactions could be prosecuted under the (1) Bank Secrecy ACT, (2) RICO, and, (3) the Hobbs Act.
=============================================
<><> L/E should get ahold of: (1) copies of A/N checks, (2) wire transfers, (3) account statements, (4) invoices, (5) bills, (6) delivery tickets, (7) correspondence including snail mail, e-mail, mobile devices, cell phones, (8) contracts, (9) loan agreements, (10) other account books or official records.
L/E should also explore (a) monies A/N paid to brokers, sub- brokers, (b) family members, (c) mortgage brokers, (d) financial managers, and, (e) real estate agents, brokers, and developers.
<><> L/E should scrutinize A/N bank accounts for suspicious activites: (A) large deposits, (B) funds transferred from one account into another, (C) frequent requests for withdrawals.
<><> Bank records might also show diversions to secret LLC accounts, to money launder and to operate personal ventures;
Tax fraud may also be a factor, facilitated by withdrawals, gift cards purchases, credit card purchases and intra-bank transfers from legal bank accounts into personal accounts, or redistribution schemes.
<><> A huge tipoff is whether bank withdrawals support luxurious lifestyles including payments for real estate, investment and stock holdings, jewelry, luxury vehicles, resort travel....... and gifts from luxury outlets.
