The 2024 candidate, who joins other elite-educated Republicans in cosplaying as a truth-telling populist while offering no actual solutions to improve people’s material conditions, has reportedly used some of his millions of dollars to pay a Wikipedia editor to scrub his past.
Mediaite reports that Ramaswamy seems to have paid Wikipedia editor “Jhofferman,” to remove information from his page that he presumably thought would damage his candidacy in the Republican primary. A few days later, he announced his 2024 bid.
The editor scrubbed off information related to Ramaswamy receiving the Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowship for New Americans in 2011, during his time as a Yale law student. Paul Soros is the older brother of billionaire democratic donor George Soros, who has been the subject of perennial antisemitic conspiracy theories peddled by the right. (The fellowship Ramaswamy received is dedicated to helping immigrants and children of immigrants pursue graduate school.)

The only thing I said was we need more than the dnc and rnc candidates.
I want choices other than red vs blue, espesially when I suspect both teams have the same owner.
Why do we need political dynasties?
the kennedy guy is amusing but see above.

Impossible you say?
That’s what you NBC kooks said about Obama. That’s what you said about Harris.
It’s bad enough that you misunderstand the constitution and the 14th amendment and dozens of court decisions. But when you deny facts and reality you leave yourself open to ridicule.

Once again, nowhere in the 14th Amendment are the words natural born Citizen.

Correct. And I told you why. But I’m not going to tell you again. I’ll let you wallow in your ignorance.

Uh, but the info is BACK on there “if” it was ever gone.

he very well could be a paid vote splitter to bolster the "no evidence of widespread election fraud", ( surgical election fraud is ok apparently) .
even the useful idiot black leftist ballot stuffers may be having second thoughts about bidentopia now and may not have the same energy they had in 2020

cowards they deserve to be called regarding the NBC issue.
