Wow. Previously Freepors wouldn’t have cared or made fun of this. Because of Trump, many are now in the cult of Twitter.

A look at Ted Cruz PAC filings (Keep The Promise I & Keep The Promise PAC) turns up expenses totaling $8,467,466.00 to a company out of Plano Texas called Rigel Strategies LLC. Below is a screenshot of just a small sample of the payments Keep The Promise I has paid to Rigel Strategies, LLC.

Rigel Strategies, LLC is owned by a man named Dennis Sternitzky. Sternitzky is the only employee of Rigel Strategies, LLC from extensive research. Sternitzky is a former sales rep for Salem Communications (now known as Salem Media Group), which owns 117 radio stations across the United States. Salem also owns the website Red State which puts on the “Red State Gathering” that is hosted by Erick Erickson. The Red State Gathering notoriously banned Donald Trump from appearing at it’s latest get together in Denver Colorado.

In 2015, Ted Cruz’s PAC “Keep The Promise I” made 58 payments to Rigel Strategies, LLC. for a total of $1,094,268.00. The PAC increased its spending with Rigel Strategies, LLC. dramatically in 2016 and in just January and February (the latest filings available), has paid Rigel $7,373,198.00. The expenses are listed as “Media” and “Pac Radio Advertising”. Below is a screenshot of all of the payments made by Cruz’s “Keep The Promise 1” and “Keep The Promise PAC” to Rigel Strategies, LLC.

(a) twitter isn’t “a website” (b) it’s virtually impossible for the cloud service known as twitter to be “down” (c) b is a pity, because twitter is a true cesspool; a vast, intellectual wasteland

Certainly explains a lot. Did you notice any payments to FReepers? like maybe 2ndDiv?

I don’t know about 2ndDiv, but I guarantee you a lot of the articles pro-Cruz or anti-Trump are posted by Cruz campaign or super-pac workers.

Twitter was a lot of fun when Breitbart was alive and tweeting. He was the original Twitter shitlord.
