I like her campaign ads. Very well done.

She was RFK Jr's running mate while he was still in the race. She got her billion thru her marriage to Google founder Sergi Brin. Divorced in 2023.

According to her Wikipedia bio, "Shanahan has questioned the scientific consensus on vaccine safety and efficacy.[13][14][15]"

>> She is a hard core Lefty.

She got mugged. If you know what I mean.

>> Curmudgeons around here need to realize the tent is larger than their crusty dried out old white guy section of the bleachers. Boomers will all be dead soon and someone has to carry on.

This crusty old white curmudgeon happens to agree with you.

Nice! you go Nicole!

I am happy to donate to any challengers campaign.

[MayflowerMadam]

If her threats and her money can help get the right people into the right positions, I don’t care if her voter registration says, “Crustacean”, I’m good with that.

At least she isn’t Democrat any more, as of last year, so maybe she’ll leave the dark side altogether as time passes. We can use her balls and her money.

It’s interesting that she’s out there in plain sight making threats to influence politicians. Usually it’s done behind closed doors.

She has the list of phone numbers for the 11 Senators she’s targeting.

[Robert DeLong]

What if they are the right people for that single issue, but wrong for so many other important issues?

Sorry, while I agree with you 99.9%, I cannot agree with you here. She is free to do whatever she wants, and I can't stop her.

But she is still a radical leftists. Therefore, I will silently support her on this issue, but I am not convinced that she has become a MAGA supporter.

That is the only point we are in disagreement with, regarding her, along with your statement that she has seen the light, because there is no evidence to support that claim. But I am actually hoping you were right with your claim, though I currently suspect you are not. 🙂👍

[FreeReign]

She supported Trump because she wanted RFK, Jr. to be part of Trump’s administration. She worked for Soros, supported Biden, Hillary and Obama. Shé is a Leftist. Look her up.

No need for me to look her up. I'm very familiar with her.

And she's now a MAHA allie and a Trump voter and rally speaker and supporter.

[laplata]

Thanks for the info.

[MayflowerMadam]

“your statement that she has seen the light”

I definitely don’t think she’s actually “seen” the light, but it seems that she’s headed in that direction. Rarely does a pol have a Damascene moment. Baby steps.

[Robert DeLong]

Well, another baby step has been taken by her, as she was just on Steven Bannon's War Room, and I was pleased to say I liked what she said, but she has a way to go to prove that she is willing to support the MAGA movement, but she did say that MAGA is the biggest movement on the planet, and seemed to be genuine in saying that. So she advances two steps forward. She has a daughter who is a vaccine victim of over 25 years now.

So, she may be for real. 🙂👍

And Graham

[Fledermaus]

People change. Get over it.

[laplata]

I’m not getting over being concerned about what’s best for my country.

[MayflowerMadam]

I just saw her on War Room, too. She’s good. When Trump connected with RFK, she became a convert, IMO. A couple months ago I saw her interviewed on some obscure podcast and she is totally disgusted by her used-to-be “friends” on the RAT side.

I don’t think she’s a shrinking violet, even though she’s pretty soft spoken. If someone is on her sh!t list, they should worry.
