The other day Joaquin Castro doxxed the constituents in his district who donated to Donald Trump. It amounted to a hit list. Castro claimed that he wanted people to "think twice" about donating to Trump
That was bullsh*t. Without any doubt he was hoping to visit at least economic harm and maybe more.
And he has drawn first blood.
For many businesses, a sudden deluge of phone calls might signal an influx of new customers. But most of the 25 calls Justin Herricks received before noon on Thursday were from people who wanted to tell him he was a white supremacist for donating money to President Trump.“I’ve had people say, ‘Hey, we were going to use you for business, but we found out you’re a racist,’” Mr. Herricks, the owner of Precision Pipe Rentals, an oil and gas services company in San Antonio, said in an interview. “‘We hope that you burn in hell and your business will go with you.’”

From the Michael Berry show
The mother to a friend of the show was one of the 44-private citizens who donated to the Trump campaign and had her name and employer tweeted out by Joaquin Castro. Here's the vile voicemail she received.

Willie Geist squeezed Castro on this sordid action:
"What do you say to those people this morning who said, I made a campaign donation and now I'm gonna be harassed; I’m gonna have people protesting outside my business or perhaps even my home?" Geist asked Castro. "Do you want them to repent for their support for Donald Trump or, what do you want from them?"And it's done exactly that. Some of the victims aren't taking it:"Well, the first thing is, I don't want anybody harassed or targeted —"
"But they will be," Geist interrupted, "because you put their names in public."
"Look, that was not my intention," Castro answered.
"But that's what will happen," the MSNBC host stated flatly.

Castro claimed that he wanted people to “think twice” about donating to Trump...
That’s what happens when you let sp.cs flow into the country.
They and their kids act like the leaders in the filthy countries that they came from..
And there is no speedy assimilation in a few generations like ethnic whites.
His brother Julio, running for President, has already defended h and his actions saying this was all public information and perfectly justifiable.
I think a little reverse retribution is in order.
The AG should order the names of all CCL carriers in Democratic states be released so the people can see what hypocrites they are. Doxxing donors won’t work. Conservatives are too busy with their lives to harass them.
Oh yes it was the intention of this SOB, else why would he have provided employment information for these private individuals.
But these same people would NEVER abuse red flag laws...
never...
This is going to lead to changes where campaign contributions will not be public. I think there could be a case made in court right now that this is suppression of the 1st amendment.
Michael Berry out of Houston is *well* worth streaming. Conservative libertarian.
If there is a law against this (I doubt it) I hope these people sue this POS racist for all he’s worth. His useless jackal of a mother founded La Raza (the race).
That is what it is what it may come down to unless law enforcement steps in and arrests Castro.
There is no scenario where citizens should be subjected to political intimidation and harassment by public officials. That is what is analogous to what the KKK did.
Bummer.
You were doing so well up until then.
Castro absolutely engaged in doxxing and violated the law.
I doubt many drillers are Dems.
BS. That was exactly his intention.
There's no other reason to dox someone.
20 years ago I’d agree.
Now though, the patch is more politically diverse than 20 years ago.
Remember the Alamo.
Their goal is to see the blood of conservatives in the street.
The thing of significance here is that we now have elected public officials targeting private citizens. This is a very disturbing escalation. And totally expected.
We need to fight back and we need to push back hard or these people are going to bury us, figuratively and literally.
Democrats are evil scum.
They think they are up against Republicans, who will act like Republicans always have and refuse to fight back. They don’t understand that the game has changed. Trump supporters will not lay down like Republicans did in the past.
My antipathy for these people is beginning to see no bounds.
I really can’t say anymore about how I feel without getting banned.
