Just got an email from David Hogg...

[Mountainguy]

And "Leaders We Deserve.' A fundraising email on father's day talking about his late Father and asking for donations.


I've never signed up for emails from his pac or given them my address. So how did they get it?

[cadoman]

1. donor lists are aggressively sold

If you put a unique identifier in your contact info you may be able to track who sold you out, but you can't really stop it.

Being on the Hogg PAC email chain is not the worst place to be though. Most of us would probably end up on it anyway.

2. They bought it from somebody

Sounds kind of shady.

[Mountainguy]

4. Maybe they bought it

But I wonder if there is another option.

The DNC definitely has that email.

5. Saw somewhere iirc that some were getting

emails from him when he was elected one of 5 vp's of DNC. I think they may have been fundraising emails for Leaders We Deserve. Now that he's stepped down he's free to fundraise and may have lists from DNC. Just a supposition...

6. I got the same email

Hogg may have gotten access to the DNC database

[Igel]

7. He had access to it.

Question is, did he use it?

And did he copy it for "superior" and "more important" ends?

You know, when I saw the subject line that Hogg sent somebody an email, my immediate thought was, "He's got his hand out asking for money for his cause." Which is not the DNC's. (Note the sheer number of local DNC chapters that helped sponsor and organize the No Kings protests. Didn't hear anybody, yea- or nay-sayers, mention his name. Catch the wave, catch the drift.)

8. he's just another politician type after your cash

10. Excuse me?

The honorable VP Twerking?

Enjoy your time here.

11. Their time here was more of "a twer............!"

[Jit423]

12. It may not even be from him. nt

[Mountainguy]

13. Its from his pac's domain.

[Sogo]

14. If you've ever donated on ActBlue, you're going to be getting emails and texts from EVERYONE

in the Democratic sphere and probably some who are just scammers.
