FULL TITLE: The man behind a GoFundMe campaign that has raised $11 million to build Trump's wall also ran a conspiracy-theory page that got kicked off Facebook

 

 

The man behind a GoFundMe campaign that has raised $11 million in private money to build President Donald Trump's proposed US-Mexico border wall also ran conspiracy-theory websites and a related Facebook page that was kicked off the platform in October.

Brian Kolfage, a US veteran who travels to speak about being a triple amputee, aims to raise $1 billion with his "We The People Will Fund The Wall" fundraiser to construct a 2,000-mile wall along the border.

“Yahoo! posted an article this morning about a NEW #GoFundMe campaign for ladders to scale Trumps wall and they have go $60,000 so far.”

And I believe that Add must be very illegal since it is material support of an illegal action. It may even be treason against the US. At the very least it is an immigration crime. Those involved in the effort should be charged with a crime. Since Go-fund-me has left it up so long then they should be charged as well.

13 mil? Wow.

I find it idiotic the MSM can dig up sh*t about a wall that will defend the country when these same stupid reporters have walls surrounding their offices, homes etc

Business Insider is an anti-Trump site on par with BuzzFeed.

Did we ever learn who started the go fund me campaign for Christine Ford, and did the media investigate and do character assassination against such person???

That money did some good. She maybe used it for voice lessons because at the hearing she sounded like a wounded 10 year old girl. When she gave some stupid award at the Sports Illustrated thingy a few weeks ago her voice sounded just fine.

Yesterday at this time the fund was a 5.2mil. Funny what 24hrs can do. I just saw the name George Soros on the donors list. Seems someone has a good sense of humor. I have a mind to make a contribution in Pelosi name. Then, send her a thank you card. Hehehe.

They refund donations made in famous people’s names.

Don’t do it.

Conservative pages were purged by Facebook before the election.
To be fair, they purged everything that wasn’t PC, so ex-Muslims and moderate Muslims criticizing female genital mutilation were purged, too, for offending Muslims.
For him to have been purged doesn’t mean he’s bad - it is proof of liberals’ systemic censorship and oppression.

Because they love mocking us.
What good is it to be a “all powerful” A-hole if you don’t flaunt it and mock those who want a honest and accountable government.

An obvious hit piece attempt to insult a triple amputee vet.


Very true. And another reason to ban Business Insider from FR.

They have requested that you NOT make donations in the name of CELEBRITIES OR POLITICIANS. If you do, they say they will reject your donation/refund your money.
