We have to get money out of politics somehow so that this sort of flagrant spending/influencing of elections stops.

If you come at the Krang, you'd best not miss. I probably never get the props I feel I ever deserve I punch grifters right in the dignity. I write a lot of code to help me do cool stuff like digging into campaign finances.

They hide behind vague names like "Elect Chicago Women" "Chicago Progressive Partnership" etc, and though they're clearly out to elect Pro-Israel candidates, none of their flyers, phone banking, etc. are based around that. It's fundamentally dishonest.
I don't know if people really understand how gross it is that the Pro-Israel lobby is spending so much on random house races. There is no reason for anyone to drop 7 figures into random races like this, and not even accurately represent their goals in their advertising.
The "Chicago Progressive Partnership" has already spent
163,879 against Junaid Ahmed and 1,183,678 against Kat. It's an AIPAC shell pac, and they both need all the help they can get!
In case people don't know, David abandoned his wife and kid in Israel while he was cosplaying as a resist lib. Total scumbag who was always going to jump to whatever side was most profitable to him.
Happy Friday the 13th

Well I wake up every day in a bad mood. I was born that way.
Tesla really taking the "hold my beer" challenge to a new level.
Tesla said "hold my beer"
Got into an argument with product team at my job because we implemented a 40 minute lockout period for someone trying to access something twice. He said "if you had a high end vehicle that made you wait 40 minutes to turn the ignition that wouldn't be acceptable". I said "that's owning a Tesla".
For starters anyway.
The Epstein Files.
Anyways, i can say with full confidence, I believe Track AIPAC's number. iykyk
Just remember when she says this stuff, she falsely accused someone of taking donations from Jeffrey Epstein, and when questioned about her lack of research she said "I said A Jeffrey Epstein, not the Jeffrey Epstein" and then proceeded to say how it was intended to confuse people.
So much better off without her in office. Just a fundamentally dishonest person and sore loser.
And trying to clean a database that's over 4TB is a monster I never thought I would be tackling.
Yeah, done my share as well. Don't know if I've ever done it on this much data that had no sanitization/standards though.
The FEC has had no real standards or clean up utilities.
Haven't even got to disbursements yet.
Though I probably have more accurate donation data than anyone else right now, so at least I've got that going for me. (STILL MILLIONS OF ROWS TO FIX)
Not entirely their fault tbh. Just a lot of "junk" data. I'm writing so much crap just to clean it up.
Fixing city/state typos. Removing leading/trailing spaces. Removing double spaces for single space. Stuff like that. Man big fucking mess.
THE FEC DATABASE CAN SUCK SHIT FROM MY ASSHOLE WITH A STRAW
Rs are going to Feinstein this fuck hole, and eventually some jealous VP is going mix his meds or some shit to take him out. That's our only chance.
We're going to have a Weekend at Bernie's situation, if we don't already, and then they're going to tape him up like a fucking mummy when he gets leprosy.
Why the fuck was the good shooter wasted on Charlie fucking Kirk.
Survived a god damn assassination attempt. This mother fucker is going to outlive us all somehow.
Just fucking let go you fucking asshole. You got away with all the bad shit you did. You can die with a fucking smile on your face as one final fuck you to the rest of us.
For fuck's sake. This mother fucker probably has every god damn fucking known STD on the planet, his blood type is cholesterol, he's in a perpetual state of rage, and somehow fucking survived covid despite it knocking off people in much better help at much younger ages.
A screenshot of a spreadsheet for data correction of incorrect city/state data for Alabama. Identified are typos for city "Brilliant" where it was misspelled.
Thanks for this Alabama.
Getting the code to work, frustrating but fun. Optimizing the code, fun but frustrating. Dunno how I can explain that.
