Robert Bigelow is a billionaire space industrialist and hotel conglomerate owner. In addition to his vast wealth, Bigelow believes space aliens are already on earth and we just have not discovered them yet. Bigelow gives a lot of money to republicans.
Last week the New York Times reported the DeSantis team had raised $30 million in the last month. Time Magazine is now reporting that $20 million of that financing came from one donor, billionaire Robert Bigelow.
(Via Time) – t’s been a rough two weeks for Ron DeSantis. Members of Congress from his own state have been endorsing Donald Trump in droves. A crippling gas shortage in South Florida coincided with the governor’s travel from South Carolina to South Korea, fueling a spate of negative headlines and “Where’s Ron?” memes. He’s been dropping in the polls. And perhaps most threatening to his presidential ambitions—some of his donors are pulling out.
But none of that is shaking the confidence of Robert Bigelow, the hotel tycoon and aeronautics executive who reveals to TIME that he is the largest donor by far to Never Back Down Inc., a super PAC backing DeSantis’s unofficial campaign for President. Bigelow, who was also the single-largest donor to DeSantis’s 2022 reelection bid, confirms that he has already donated a little more than $20 million to Never Back Down. He says that’s just a start. The super-rich businessman plans to continue putting his wealth behind sending the Florida governor to the Oval Office. “I will give him more money and go without food,” Bigelow says.
His initial donation is a substantial increase from the $10 million contribution he made to DeSantis in the midterms last July. Bigelow, who is based in Las Vegas, says he made the $20 million donation on March 27. A senior Never Back Down official recently told The New York Times that the PAC raised $30 million from March 9 to April 3, meaning two-thirds of those dollars came from Bigelow. (read more)
DeSantis might be filling up the bank accounts, but winning hearts and minds…. not so much.
Former Congressman David Trott (R-MI) – […] “I sat right next to DeSantis for two years on the Foreign Affairs Committee, and he never said a single word to me,” Trott said. “I was new to Congress, and he didn’t introduce himself or even say hello.”
“I go to my first hearing early, and DeSantis showed up right at the gavel time and didn’t say hello or introduce himself,” Trott told Politico. “And then the next hearing, the same thing happened. I think the third time it happened, I thought, ‘Oh, this guy’s not ever going to say hello to me.’” He said he eventually introduced himself to DeSantis.
Trott acknowledged that while DeSantis was talented at pressing his political ambitions, he was not likable.
“He never developed any relationships with other members that I know of. You’d never see him talking on the floor with other people or palling around. He’s just a very arrogant guy, very focused on Ron DeSantis,” Trott said.
He added:
He wasn’t really liked when he was in Congress. And now it’s coming home to, you know, prove out as some of the Florida delegation endorsed Trump and and some of the donors, you know, think he’s kind of awkward in terms of how he interacts with them. … If his pre-presidential campaign was playing out differently, then I’d say, ‘Well, maybe he just didn’t like me.’ But I think there’s something more at work here.”
Trott concluded, “I think he’s an asshole. I don’t think he cares about people.” (More)
Perhaps this explains why the DeSantis team needs to photoshop handshakes.
“Frasier” did a really great episode about a similar situation.
Makes me laugh just thinking about it.
Frazier did a GREAT job in THE JESUS REVOLUTION.
Never caught that episode
Aliens among us…most likely probed all of Congress.
Hilarious
Lindsey denies it.
Think he likes it🫡
it Hurts to Laugh THAT Hard…
Thanks for the link. I don’t remember that one but it’s hysterical. Kelsey Grammer is so good in that role. The entire cast is, actually.
I feel his pain, it is always a disappointment when you find out who your Congress Critters really are.
No….It’s the other way around. Other Congressman have said the same thing about DeSantis.
I wasn’t referring to DeSantis, I am referring the ones I know personally or have volunteered for. They didn’t turn out to be who I thought, or as they projected themselves to be.
Karl Rove and the rest of the rino Bushetts can put all the makeup on Rhonda DeSoros they want, he’s still a worm
Lipstick on the Pig
Describes it better
Pucker up buttercup!
And he’s the best they have, lol. They’ll be sending him to charm school soon enough. It will be glorious to see President Trump go mano y mano with Meatball.
Not just makeup, but high heels as well.
The song, I’m just a Bigelow, lol, comes to mind. I mean giglio
DeSatan just continues to his fake MAGA routine, saying today that Republicans need to “shake their culture of losing”. His entire campaign and current political persona are the product of shamelessly stealing DJT’s mannerisms, gesticulations, beliefs, policy positions, etc. all for the purpose of deceiving voters. DeSatan is not only unoriginal and astroturfed, he is soulless. DJT is an ICON, and cannot be copied.
Well, I’m glad he’s being exposed now. We can scratch him off for 2028 and beyond. Clearly, RDS is too self absorbed with his own political aura to realize the GOPe is hanging him out to dry and his political future is swirling down the drain!
Ron is an Avatar.
I agree. If I ever see his name on a ballot (will we even have ballots in the future) I will never vote for him. He has shown his true colors.
Big money bought .
What ever happened to campaign reform and limits on donations?
Citizens United SCOTUS ruling that upheld the odd notion that money = speech. Therefore the richest people and PACs get to talk loudest.
No limits on PAC donations.
Can you imagine having so much money that you can piss-away $30 million on a guy who has no chance of winning?
I know it’s ridiculous, more money than brains, primary symptom of modern America.
trust me when I say this…well two things.
there is no such thing as 30 million dollars that doesn’t get paid back..one way or another…it always gets paid back.
bigelow estimate net worth is 1 Billion dollars….to put that into perspective donating 30 million is just 3 percent of his networth.
to put it into perspective…his net worth grows at least by 3 percent each year, likely higher.
to put it into perspective, outside of his large profit margins in low cost hotels, bigelow has contracts with several nations for “inflatable orbiting human habitats”…In fact there are a couple of the prototypes that are in flight right now. I’ve not followed the science on it, but apparently it’s a low cost low launch weight system that puts people in a safe habitat that does not require the kinds of investments and technical complexities of the ISS. From that program, bigelow stands to make a small fortune (again) if the prototypes show promise and reliability.
basically the dude is kind of being a typical grandstanding circus barker…3 percent ain’t nothing….give desantis half your dough ….make it a cool 500 MILLION..then we will take your comments about eating hotdogs and living on the street a little bit more seriously.
he kind of strikes me as the john mcafee type…where the lines of sanity have been distorted…probably due to an intense cocaine addiction….layered on top of some pretty strange uncorked fantasies. seems lots of very wealthy people end up this way…after “winning it all” they realize the only thing left for amusement is the constant yearning for something to go crazy over. Of well…the love of money can do that to a human..it always has.
God Bless America
Good thing for inflatable space habitats there aren’t bits of stuff up there going thirty thousand miles an hour.
Possibly “micro-dosing” with LSD, it IS a thing in silicon valley, and there is actual science behind it.
Causes all the different parts of the brain to communicate with each other, which doesn’t “normally” happen, so “expanding your mind” IS literal.
When we sleep, our subconscious mind talks to our conscious mind, thus the saying, I need to sleep on that decision.
I think I will just keep doing that the normal way.
my day dreams are what keeps my mind sharp and motivated..
the very few dreams I can remember often have no plot or reference…which is kind of cool if you are into fiction movies.
but I like the real time on your feet drama, wide eyed and contemplating.
A fool and his money are soon parted😂
Money buys elections . Let’s not forget the zucker bucks , the purchased Soros AGs, the wisconsin supreme court justice to name a few. 30 million can buy a lot of evelopes.
$ Steals elections you mean. Buys a lot of envelopes, and stuffing operations.
Will Dominion machines be used in the Primaries?
I thought there were limits to how much one person can donate to a candidate. (but IS he a candidate? Can he be a candidate and still be governor? ). Like $2500 or something? So….. how does one guy get to give $20 Mil? Asking for a friend.
I don’t get it, either.
He gave it to a PAC.
Funny how we do not have free speech anymore, except to give unlimited donations to politicians thru PAC’s. Something went haywire along the way.
Citizens United wasn’t the victory the establishment CONservatives tell you it was.
Who can and can’t contribute to a Super PAC or Hybrid PAC?
Political committees that make only independent expenditures may solicit and accept unlimited contributions from individuals, corporations, labor organizations and other political committees. They may not accept contributions from foreign nationals, federal contractors, national banks or federally chartered corporations.
this is straight verbatim from the Federal Election Commission, a strange independent governmental agency, where rules violations are so common and frequent, often the committee simply does not even take up small potato cases.
another strange aspect of this same “commission”…anyone can allege a violation…anyone…without any evidence at all.
this is by the way the same FEC that investigated and then ruled there was no FEC violations by President Trump.
I think sundance wrote an article recently outlining the president of this commission who reported the finding of the President Trump allegation of FEC violation. Again showing sundance has been at the very leading edge and has provided exceptional fact finding whereas nearly no other main stream maniac “news” orgs would even bother asking and pursuing the basic question: where is the underlying crime given the FEC has already ruled there was no violation?
God Bless America
Ordinary people go to federal prison for donations over $2,500. The billionaire class can donate $50 million to a PAC they incorporated yesterday for $135 online and then direct it the same candidate you went to prison over!
That handshake photo is so poorly done–but apparently someone got paid to do it.
Maybe he’s like Joke Biden: “I don’t need you before the election; I need you after the election.”
Could it be the Billionaire believes DeSmallest (Meatballs) is an ALIEN?
I mean DeSmallest (Meatballs) has shown non-human traits… like backstabbing Pres. Trump.
No, no, no … backstabbing is a DEFINING human trait.
A DEFINING trait for Progressives and Demoncrat who aren’t Human. I mean just look at the trail of unborn bodies left in their wake.
I resent THAT! REPUBLICANS have shown, time and time again, that they are every bit as proficient and have the proclivity to stab their base in the back, over and over and over, just as much as Democrats!
Ron The Con…
Aliens most certainly DO exist on earth.
We call them Democrats.
Some say they’re from another planet. Some say they’re from Hell below. But they suck, wherever they go.
I think it’s just a health issue.
See, they were right!
Cranial Warming is real!!

I tried to find a physical therapy group to get some work done, and four offices are still wearing masks. Two of them were rather taken aback that I questioned the masks, and then declined to make an appointment. If they are stupid enough to still be wearing masks at this point, I don’t want them touching me.
A great test for whether you want to consider ANY health care provider, if you must go to one, at all I suppose.
I stll say SOME people SHOULD wear face diapers, 24/7.
Those that are full of crap, talk crap, and have diareah of the mouth MUST be masked, to protect the rest of us.
When Maxine Waters landed, she was told earth women have hair.
That’s the closest she could come.
Ron DeSantis is about to duplicate Jeb Bush in raising a lot of money and flaming out spectacularly in the primaries.
Someone needs to put the candle snuffer over him already and nip the wick.
I like DeSantis’ prolife stance.
Good thing Pres. Trump is even more committed to being pro-life.
Stance, or pose?
You know he doesn’t do anything his masters don’t direct him to.
Wait, what, the old TV show “V” wasn’t real? Darn…
Mari, check out Skinwalker Ranch in Nevada. This guy was probaby paid to reveal this and it was always meant to be the next thing they were going to hit us with. (polycrises – WEF suggestion) We need to make contact with the aliens and get them to remove D.C. and everybody in it. 😎
All we need is an asteroid.
😂😂😂😂
going for the trifecta?
😂😂😂😂
They promote aliens to keep Humanity away from the existence of “Angels” (Light) vs “”Fallen Angels” aka Demons (Darkness). It helps to steer people away from God.

I understand what Sundance is doing, and I understand what the GOPe is doing. The establishment Republicans are merely waiting until Special Prosecutor Jack Smith (aka, Agent Smith, aka the Matrix) brings charges against Trump in a heavily biased DC court, gets a conviction for something contrived and made up, but “legal”, and then the Senate votes (at least half of the Republicans would vote for this) under Article I, Section 3 to make Trump constitutionally ineligible to run.
Game, set, match.
Even if we all wrote Trump in, he would still not be eligible to assume office under the Constitution. We can vote all we want to, but we do not get to pick the winner.
That’s the plan. And I live for the moment it happens.
All hopeism gone, Kraken didn’t crack, Lawfare in quiet bars sipping bourbon on taxpayers coin rejoicing mission accomplished.
Slow burn of tyranny finally reaching the powder keg confirming nulling of our voices while our citizenship is ground into slavery. 78% will embrace their new status, shrug and say oh well. Perhaps the remainder will look at the cabinet knowing what must be, what will be, what shall be done.
Yup.
I disagree, respectfully.
IMHO, as we move forward, more prosecutors file INDICTMENTS, but slow walk getting convictions.
Bragg filed 34, the gal in Georgia will try to at least match that # (all for ONE perfect phone call) and then Smith will weigh in, as PDJT wins the primary challenge with the most delegates.
The RNC says “It would be IRRESPONSIBLE to the Nation, to our R voters, and to down ballot candidates, to have as our standard bearer nominee for POTUS, a man that could be impeached as soon as he is inaugerated, for “high crimes and misdemeanors”. (Thats why Bragg elevated misdemeanors to felonies).
The RNC CAN, by their own rules, refuse PDJT the nomination, they just need an excuse they think they can “sell” that “sounds plausible”.
And then of coarse saying “but how about Ron, he’s popular with the R base, and has NO indictments!”
THAT, I think is there plan.
Quite plausible. And listen, I’m not wedded to my scenario-yours is just as likely, if not more so. The point is the RNC and DNC cannot allow Trump back in the WH.
And they won’t.
And this is Socrates’ long term model forecast for the rise and culmination of the Civil Unrest Cycle worldwide.
Keep in my, a Socrates’ forecast has Never (that’s right, Never) been wrong in 40+ years).
They can run but there won’t be any place to hide.
https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/world-news/civil-unrest/the-contagion-of-war/
Let’s say that happens and they deem Trump is ineligible to run. The RNC puts up Ron! The DNC doesn’t have to work hard at all to do anything with the voting. They win but with fewer votes than Trumps write ins. Would people wake up? Would anyone even know if that happened?
I keep repeating the punch line “What if they gave a war, and nobody came?”.
The evil doers can certainly thwart President Trump, in a hundred ways they know and we don’t.
But like Jeb!, no one will turn out to vote for their guy. Literally no one.
Another of my punch lines: the Republicans are now the all Chiefs and no Indians Party.
Goofs like Mitch McConnell lie awake at night thinking of ways to be clever, oh so clever. But democracy, true democracy defeats them.
this?
Article I, Section 3, Clause 7:
Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.
The immediate effect of conviction upon an article of impeachment is removal from office,1 although the Senate may subsequently vote on whether the official shall be disqualified from again holding an office of public trust under the United States.2 If this latter option is pursued, a simple majority vote by the Senate is required.3 If not, an individual who has been impeached and removed may remain eligible to serve in an office in the future, including as a Member of Congress.4
By design,5 impeachment is separate and distinct from a criminal proceeding. Impeachment and conviction by Congress operates to remove an individual from office; it does not, however, preclude criminal consequences for an individual’s actions.6 Those who have been impeached and removed from office are still subject to criminal prosecutions for the same underlying factual matters, and individuals who have already been convicted of crimes may be impeached for the same underlying behavior later.7 A number of federal judges, in fact, have been indicted and convicted for conduct which has formed the basis for a subsequent impeachment proceeding.8
The text of the Constitution does not address the sequencing of impeachment and other legal proceedings. Generally speaking, historical practice has been to impeach individuals after the conclusion of any related criminal proceedings, although this might simply reflect practical convenience as such proceedings can alert Congress of improper behavior that may warrant impeachment. Nonetheless, nothing in the Constitution demands this order of events.
The Constitution bars the President from using the pardon power to shield individuals from impeachment or removal from office.9 A President could pardon impeached officials suspected of criminal behavior, thus protecting them from federal criminal prosecution; such a move would not, however, shield those officials from removal from office via the impeachment process.
I think the constitutional problem is explained in clear language:
“The immediate effect of conviction upon an article of impeachment is removal from office,1 although the Senate may subsequently vote on whether the official shall be disqualified from again holding an office of public trust under the United States”
President Trump is no longer in office. Impeaching a former president would most certainly be contested and most certainly would arrive at SCOTUS for interpretation…fortunately, there is no precedent for it. None. So stare decisis is of not assistance to the black robes over the matter and boils down to interpreting the plain language. If article of impeachment are drawn up by the house based on a criminal matter and conviction, then it’s obvious the official must already be holding office. President Trump does not hold office. And so, there would be no “SUBSEQUENT vote” on disqualification from holding office. Clearly the constitution was pretty clear about how this clause was to be used…to impeach elected official, up to and including POTUS for acts, high crimes and misdemeanors and any criminal violations while IN OFFICE. Not on matters that do not or cannot be placed during his time in office, backwards or forwards. The impeachment clause was intended solely as a political remedy because generally the constitution also recognized that Presidents’ are largely immune from prosecution while in power.
If congress had considered this action to be necessary, they would have developed a third impeachment while he was IN OFFICE. they did not…they lost the ball…There are no do overs on this matter. Well, what I mean is that yes, they probably will attempt to do it..because yes, congress has proven capable of ignoring the constitution and doing lots of ridiculously dangerous actions.
exhibit: why has the same congress not drawn up impeachment actions toward joe malarkey..I could give a 100 point list of high crimes and misdemeanors all that would show a pattern of misconduct and just plain and simple incapacity.
maybe they really enjoy having an embecile …a stooge…someone easily manipulated and controlled. Probably that. Which explains why the impeachment of Joe Malarkey isn’t even being discussed.
maybe that changes..but I doubt it.
God Bless America
Thanks regitiger, greatly appreciate the thorough and clear explanation.
Feels like the end game of Japan in WW2 – all the skilled guys were dead and all they had were kamikazi runs.
The Pubcan party is going down in flames with that strategery.
There goal was never, IMHO to actually have the Senate vote to convict PDJT, in order to remove him from office.
The goal was to WATERGATE him, just like they did Nixon.
Remember all those REPUBLICAN Senators that voted to convict tricky-dick from office?
That got their NAMES in the history books for that vote?
EXACTLY. Thet TOLD Nixon they had the votes, R VOTES, and so he resigned.
THATS what they hoped to do with PDJT, but it depended on two years of unrelenting SC leaks, and withering bad press to lower his popularity that the American people, and especially the R base, would accept it (like with Nixon).
Didn’t work, and if Mitch had tried it the MAGA base would have eviscerated them, and they knew it.
Spot on Dutch! PDJT is made of some stern stuff. Some would say God protected.
oh I do believe the primary goal was to impeach President Trump and remove him from office. I do believe that was plan A with a capitol A.
it’s easy to look back and see the senate was never going to do it, because there would be severe consequences.
I do believe that ONE OF THE REASONS that mike pence was promoted to BRUTUS by his handlers was to force the inside fight and hope the administration would be weak and flounder…and that actually did happen to an extent that many aides and staffers left..the turn over rate was steep. I think the senators realized also that there was another risk involved here too that outweighed the “benefits” of removing Trump with impeachment. Once you go down that road, on what was obviously to everyone in the know complete made up fabricated claims….this would and even more power to the IC community and ALSO to the likes of obama and clinton. And while it IS true that the senate is controlled by uniparty associations, there is still alot of power fights that happen. Allowing the IC state to partner with the clinton schemer/obama schemers was most certainly considered a bad choice. So in a sense this was not about doing the right thing. It was about refusing to allow that much power to shift to interests the senate could not control. Voting on impeachment meant also that everyone is exposed to that uncertainty …I think this is one of the reasons why they refuse to impeach joe malarkey or even that santos jackwagon. If the basis of impeachment is incapacity and corruption for the one and pathological lying and fraud for the other, where does that leave the giant sized members of the senate who have been doing the same thing…some, or decades.
impeachment is seen as a nuclear bomb…using it…everyone gets radiated. I think what they were hoping for was some small grade “conventional” type…narrowly described so it would never be applied back to them in the future. President Trump did have alot of political clout also….and made it clear he was going to stomp necks to the curb and expose the corruptors..He followed through on that and zeroed out the political careers of some top names. I think senators understood that risk also.
as with most things in DC, it’s never about doing the right thing…It’s always about getting away with something and expanding power. And sometimes that means, sitting still.
DeSantis is the solution, then?
😒
Nope.
Ground control to Major Ron
Lock your Soyuz hatch and put your helmet on…
Would Don Jr. say that Bigelow shouldn’t be criticized because of the amounts he donates to Republicans?
Yes he would.
Why does it matter? Why are you bringing Jr here? Do you think Jr disqualifies President Trump?
Why can people who are so deranged get so rich in America. The fired Bud Light lady also lives in a $8 million apartment despite she’s completely incompetent.
The cabal takes care of their own.
They are born into the right families.
This is really pitiful.
And the dishonesty and deceit is so off putting.
Do they not see?
Or care?
Are DeSantis and his team this out of touch to the point of delusional?
No.
No.
Yes.
You confirm my suspicions!
Short and on point…I liked you.
it’s money….none of this makes any sense to US, and we don’t get a benefit from any of it, because the agenda is to serve the high paying client.
it’s a business transaction…this is why it IS wrong.
leadership from elections in the US….a representative democracy should reflect the values and the agenda of THE PEOPLE…not billionaires and corporations.
but until we gain some ground and fight it out on citizens united and other election campaign funding laws.
the people were capable of getting wade versus roe removed as a federal matter…and goes to the state’s now. I suspect that is how we will need to resolve the money crisis issue with our elections. drive it back to the states’ where THE PEOPLE have more input.
maybe
God Bless America
What a stark contrast between what you described and President Trump who actually loves us and cares about our well-being.
But as a true servant, he wants the power to be in the hands of we the people.
Our Constitution is such a wonderful thing.
If we looked to the Bible and the constitution as our guides–
And wholeheartedly followed both –
America could truly be restored.
From the bits I’ve read about Bigelow his past political donations have always been tied to his obsession with aliens, wanting politicians to push for investigations. The Pentagon’s recent odd comments about alien ships and investigations into alien visitors is thought to be in part a reflection of Bigelow’s political influence thru his donations.
Guess DeSantis must have convinced Bigelow he was a true believer or at least that if he won he’d prioritize gov’t efforts to prove the existences of alien visitors.
good catch, sunrei.
undiscovered space aliens here on earth?
does that explain zuckerberg?
how will this be worked into ron’s platform?
will there be space alien equity legislation?
space alien housing, healthcare, and college tuition?
will they be allowed in women’s sports and bathrooms?
so many questions, perhaps most importantly,
has mr. bigelow sought treatment for his mental health issues?
but…but…but…what if we’re not alone?
but…but…but…WHAT IF WE ARE?
Youbjust no they will be allowed rightbin, and no jab requirement for them!
Slow clap to the bundlers.
Well Mr. B, we got the Navy to finally show the tic tac UFO and with your help, once DeSantis is appointed, he’ll set up special commission for your inquiry.
We have crazy on both sides of the aisle.
There IS NO AISLE, its one if those falsehhoods, like blue States, repeated so often people accrpt itcss true, but its a lie!
President Nixon allegedly showed his good friend Jackie Gleason extraterrestrial bodies in cold storage at Homestead AFB. Maybe Bigelow wants the same tour.
Pro Da Meatball guy suffers TDS..
Pro DeSantis super PAC calls for Trump to leave Florida.
“The state of Florida will be better off when Trump takes his Soros-fueled, dumpster fire of a campaign to San Francisco,” the CEO of the pro-DeSantis super PAC said.
A pro-Ron DeSantis super PAC offered on Saturday to help pay for former President Donald Trump’s move to California after Trump called Florida “among the worst states” to live in.
“Donald Trump has so deeply disparaged the state of Florida by calling it the ‘worst state,’ we at Never Back Down will help him leave by offering financial assistance to help him move to his beloved California, so he can be close to his good buddy Gavin Newsom, whom he loves so intensely and gets along with so well,” Never Back Down CEO Chris Jankowski said in a statement.
“The good news is that since so many people are moving to the state of Florida, thanks to the incredible success of Governor Ron DeSantis, no one will notice when Trump leaves,” the statement continued.
“The state of Florida will be better off when Trump takes his Soros-fueled, dumpster fire of a campaign to San Francisco, where it will fit right in.”
Trump issued a statement Friday, taking a shot at DeSantis’s leadership in the Sunshine State, claiming that Florida “has become one of the least affordable states to live in the country.”
“Florida has become among the worst states” to “live, find economic opportunity, work, retire, raise a family, pay taxes, be safe, rent a home, have a baby, afford energy, die, be a teacher, be a doctor, [or] be a police officer,” the statement continued.
DeSantis is expected to throw his hat into the 2024 presidential race for the GOP nomination, although he hasn’t announced his bid yet.
Is this Jankowski PAC guy nuts? Trump is Soros-fueled? Buddies with Newsom? Would fit in in SF? Must be smoking some powerful stuff or has gone completely bonkers!
If that’s all he has in the chamber? Trumps trigger is bigger than his.
DNC mega-bundler and all around creep John Podesta is into aliens as well.
What is the connection between political money changers and the belief in aliens? Are these two outliers or do they represent commonly held interests among the elite? And does that connection have anything to do with a new willingness, particularly by the US military, to treat (or pretend to treat) the subject as a serious possibility?
GOAT troll strikes again… can you hear the splody heads?
My father always talks about aliens from the future. Supposedly as he claims.. They are here because at some point someone is going to trigger a nuke in Russia which will start a counter launch and the whole planet will be affected. He claims they lost all the records of what occurred and who started it so they are watching us and recording to fill in the blanks.
I disagree.. If this is even true which I highly doubt. Any being from the future has a sense of self preservation. It’s in their best interest to make that happen.. otherwise they won’t exist.. Period.
Beyond that I usually try to focus on more realistic things I can work on or work towards.. Everything else is a distraction. As is a hack donating to Captain Ron and his side door election efforts. All in all it’s a fun distraction from the norm but this isn’t the unconventional out of the norm actions I was hoping for. My hats off to the Frasier reference.. It’s quite applicable considering all the details.
My Dad, after he retired, took up coin collecting.
Every Christmas, he gave me coins worth their face value (at best, no store would take them).
Maybe your Dad could join the Libertarian Party?
Not likely.. he’s beyond political parties. He just plays the stock market and does his usual home repair projects.. He may not collect coins but he loves building things and his ham radio license. He’s an odd bird for sure but he did amass more than enough to not have to work for the last couple decades or have to worry about money ever again so he has that going for him.. I’m just happy he chose not to get vaccinated so we might get to spend a few more decades with him.
Aliens from the future…I saw that episode of South Park. They are called Goobacks, they worked cheap and took all the jobs.
LOL
LOLz! Love me some old school South Park.. I still have the first 10 seasons on my computer.. Started re-watching them with my wife because I’m always saying.. ‘South Park already did this..’ Whenever I see something new from the psychos on the left.. My wife never watched it so we are going back through each episode a few a week to catch her up on things.
How can one person donate $20-30 million dollars to one candidate? Aren’t there limits to donating? If it’s going to pacs, then they should have limits on amounts donated too. That’s plain ridiculous.
There’s no limit to the amount an individual an donate to a Super Pac. The courts have really caused a mess with rulings that allow this. IMO this is why the uber wealthy can so easily corrupt politicians.
Citizens United vs FEC is a gift that keeps giving. Courts are loathe to supplant established precedent, so we’re stuck with it for the foreseeable future.
it’s UNLIMITED to a PAC.
that is one of the results of citizens united ruling in 2010. (it’s a little more complicated than just that, but citizens united moved the entire field of politics away from citizen donors to the wealth class…in one scotus ruling that was the effect.
God Bless America
Big money will ALWAYS find a way in, in ordervto buy influence.
Close the door, a windiw will open, you can’t keep thecrich from buying influence, its what they DO.
Theres no such thing as space aliens. The things people claim to see are demonic. These rich smart people are nitwits and Hollywood, and I.C. are behind the hoax of aliens to hide the fact Lucifers the great Deceiver is involved.
Rumor has it there’s a BIG hairy thing in the Pacific North West. Grunts a lot and in Jerky commercials.
Big Mike made it to the White House
reminds me of a classic comedy routine
i Grew Up with One in my School; Had Facial Hair before the Rest of Us ” Old School MALES ” did.
He Moved to Alaska.
The money will be burned up in less than a month. Bigelow and The Meatball will get nothing for it. The Meatballs campaign non-campaign staff will meet and smooze some more congressional members, only to have them endorse Trump. Waste of money.
RE-POST: Happy Earth Day: ‘Green’ Energy Is Toxic, Inefficient, and Unprofitable

oh, man
100Million Trump voters giving $1 would bury those coffers.
Exactly. That’s the magic we can learn from Bernie Sanders.
100M can’t/won’t donate but we can bury every RINO in a primary if 30M gave $2-5 to each MAGA candidate including Trump. Repeat for the general election.
They spend their ,$, buying envelopes, and adjustments on ballot size, etc.
And we can spend ours on campaigns, envelopes & ballots where it’s legal.
And there’s a thing called root cause analysis. What causes a machine to reject a ballot? What causes a machine not to reject a fraudulent signature? What causes a human not to reject an unlawful ballot? What causes the total number of votes to be greater than the number of eligible voters? Those things can all be analyzed & they can be prevented by human agency.
I refuse to give up or give in.
Wait for it…….aliens
Let’s face it, there are some people who are so witless that they have to be from some planet on which evolution has resulted in a species that can do most things (up to and including voting and signing Executive Orders) without having an actual working brain.
That even outdoes the Zabriskan fontema.

Elon is into rocket ships, Elon said he would vote Ron!, and perhaps Mr. Bigbelow has dreams of working w/Musk, or they already have some sort of partnership, and they know Ron the Meatball will work w/them?
FTA: “I will give him more money and go without food,”
Said every US taxpayer when talking about their overbearing government, as they struggle and try to scrounge up an existence.
First, i would say President Trump has his right to his own opionion and second he is not saying anything that others are not saying to .
Perhaps this is the time for Desantis to quit his job and move some where else since he seems to have business every where but in Florida these days, the fact that Desantis pacs are always the ones attacking PT does not hold water he just allows everyone to do his dirty work, and he shows daily he no longer cares what happens in Florida.
time for everyone to take a good hard look at Desantis and decide if they really want this guy in the White House because he was brought in to this situation to take down PT and asked yourself if you would really vote for this guy .
I know that i will not. for any reason.
I might be able to help with a motive on this one. I’ve been family friends with the Bigelows since I was a little kid. Friends with his sons. I know he made money through hard work and connections, the way God intended. Maybe DeSantis promised him he would show him the Aliens at Patrick Air base.
As far as aliens; Pfffft, the government says thats a lie. Science Settled.

Well at least the guy is consistent. If there are aliens on this earth, he is supporting the fat one-Meatball the Lesser.
An alien to the American people, supported by billionaires, and called an “asshole” by those who known him.
The Big Club is trying to persuade Prolife Catholics to vote for the fake prolifer, and they need money to buy those bishops. I can see a letter coming up from the USCCB to encourage Catholics to vote for desanctimonious. Never will I support this jerk.
Disgusting!
President Trump’s uncle John Trump did some interesting work at MIT. He was associated with some of the people involved with UFO phenomenon.
Picture proof of alien on earth
Another protege of Lonnie Hammargren, I suppose. I voted for Hammargren to be Lt. Gov. jut to keep him from working in the trauma center, at a friend’s request (she was on the trauma team). Figured he could do less damage in Carson City back then.
Bigelow is determined to get his hands on the UFO files. Trump has brought up his Uncle John and Tesla in two different interviews lately—without being prompted to do so.
Ron, no amount of money is going to help you. Your decision to become a full fledged member and tool of the uni-party in addition to your lack of character and integrity plus your back stabbing of DJT and MAGA, is going to be your downfall.
Sounds a lot like Cruz, who is said to be the least liked Senator, so it makes sense the same people that thought Cruz would be the one to beat “Trump” are now pushing, dragging and doing everything they can, to try to get the dead horse RDS across the line.
I kinda agree space aliens are here on earth, but its not that we haven’t discovered them yet, its that $0r0$ is their beard, and they are pod people copying all of the leaders at those meetings he has.
If he donates to republicans, why does he only hires lefties to run his properties? Bigelow sounds like a progressive Kinsey Republican to me.
A Trans-Temporal Cosmic War:
Tesla energy & plasma physics:
A quote from the book “The Wars of Gods and Men” by Zechariah Sitchin (Bear & Co Publishing, 1985), a translation of ancient texts: An Akkadian “Book of Job” titled “ludlul Bel Nimeqi” (I Praise the Lord of Deepness) refers to the “irresistible demon that has exited from the Ekur” [ Ekur meaning mountain, ziggurat or pyramid] in a land “across the horizon, in the Lower World [Africa].”
Well, I think a lot of people will be surprised about the whole Aliens things.
Yes, aliens exist. They come across the border daily
