(17,314 posts)I don't want my money going to a bunch of entitled assholes who tried to overthrow our government when they didn't get their way. People that were unjustly pardoned and not in prison where they belong.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
