1. The question on everyone's mind...

How many Republican politicians buy from Devumi?

More specifically, does Trump?

2. Appears NYAG is on the case!

We will have answers to your questions.

5. Says here that Randy "Ironstache" Bryce bought fake Twitter followers

So I'm doubting his veracity and looking at his other Democratic opponent and liking what I'm seeing out of Cathy Myers. It's such as shame that Ironstache is hiding and refusing to properly debate Ms. Myers.

8. I do not live in Wisconsin,

but I have family there. I have been following Myers and Bryce. Bryce has always bugged me, for some reason. I felt like he was being shoved down our throats by people on the far left. I may be wrong, but he has always given me a bad feeling.

Do you live in his district? My cousin does. I don't always remember to talk about politics with her. She is a Democrat, but we don't have that type of relationship. We mostly speak about family things.

10. I have met him. He seems genuine.

6. Clay Aiken

I knew it!!!!

7. Then Trump had better not make any further appearances in New York

If "impersonation and deception are illegal under New York law," then any appearance of Donald Trump in the role of President of the United States should subject him to immediate arrest under state law.

9. Good one!

[PatSeg]

19. Perfect!!!

[calimary]

11. Whoa! He does not mess around much, does he!

12. Twitter owners know how to stop this

They aren’t doing due diligence
They aren’t doing crap
Except pulling down $$$ from their platform
Hand over fist
Bastards!!

If government did this
GOP would be 365-24-7 railing against
Big government

Go NY
Rein these tools back!!

13. Schneideerman

was all over that fake FCC comment stuff. Wonder if this is part of that. That would be a 2fer.

18. Didn't Trump buy a bunch of Twitter followers during election? Billings would be fraudulent income.

14. Schneiderman is my hero! He may be the one who eventually

nails the moron. No pardons coming from Pence if it is a state crime!

I wonder if he has a big red letter "S" under his suit.

15. K&R...

[klook]

16. Aw, rats! I thought this was going to be about

“John Miller”!

[TheBlackAdder]

17. If Hannity bought fake Twitter followers, and tweets are billed by number of followers--Fraud!
