How can I sign-up for this "Brock Brigade"? Apparently I can get paid for posting here.

Why are we posting for free when we could be getting PAID?



It seems that blaming the "Brock Brigade" is the go-to default response for any criticism of Bernie, or any defense of Hillary, or any praise of Hillary.

I was fulfilling my requirement of dancing naked around stones in Inverness.
I went there in my dreams, after a sleeping pill.

Yeah, Scotland and Ireland are my 1st places on my bucket list. I want to plan it so I can spend at least 3 weeks there.

My sister went to Ireland as part of a tour and loved it. Except the part where she was part of a tour and Ireland was only 3 days. She liked it so much she wants to plan a family trip there next year.

Pity that's all they have to fall back on.

A few months ago tim robbins was in a twiiter war because he said something stupid and he was getting push back.. he blasted off insults to everyone that they were paid by Brock. It's what these BS fans do when they have nothing. You'd think they might realize how utterly ridiculous they look.

Chewbacca.. that woman is so funny!

Hillary has run her entire campaign *plus* an army of social media warriors *plus* infiltrated every news organization known to mankind *plus* written hundreds of articles *plus* manipulated all of the polls...

...all for a million bucks to David Brock.

No wonder she's winning!!! lol

He's the money man, the source of the hugE wealth used to pay off everyone who says anything complimentary about Hillary. Its easier for Sanders people to believe that the media is in cahoots with this vast cabal of sinister Democratic minions plotting to unhinge Sanders campaign, that to admit voter don't want to vote for him.

So, they have created this fiction that there are no news outlets, no media organizations, no Democratic writers, no pundits or commentators, no news services, that have not been corrupted by the "Dark Side"... as proved every time they say something that didn't excoriate Hillary for breathing and praise Sanders for getting his shoes tied.

ATTN - Hillary supporters. If you haven't been receiving your regular paid bribes, please contact the Office of Rigging immediately.

Like most of the superdelegates, we simply prefer Hillary. Why is that so hard for Sanders followers to understand?

Priorities USA - Obama's old Super PAC - has committed $40,000,000 to "online digital."

Bye bye Bernie supporters.

Sovereign citizens use it ALL the time when someone tells them they need to get a driver's license, pay taxes or stop smoking weed on the front steps of the police department. Since Bernie's supporters use the same tactic as sovereign citizens, I wonder how much overlap between the two groups there is - do SCs think Bernie will repeal all the laws?

a fast-cash job like that in order to pay my debts off and pay for a plane ticket to see my friend overseas. How do I join?

But anytime somebody uses the "paid shill" attack line, I'd also twist it around in response by asking how much they're getting paid.
