Are you feeling depressed, defeated, and disempowered? Do you wake up in the morning terrified and angry at the constant litany of abuses and idiocies coming out of the White House and its allies? Have you developed a Pavlovian aversion to checking the news? Do the stories of border concentration camps, environmental policy rollbacks, recession-making tax cuts and tariffs, and the wholesale appointment of fascist federal judges make your blood boil? Have you been shocked by the rise of right wing violence and the GOP’s all-too-willingness to coddle and equivocate? Do the recent actions by states across the country to pass laws effectively banning abortion, punishing those who would exercise their right to boycott Israel over their treatment of Palestinians, or tightening the screws on anti-fascist protesters and loosening the chain on police brutality have you worried for the future? Are you just fed up with all of these goddamn racists? Wanna do your part to help kick Trump and his enablers out of government and maaaaaybe try to avert some of the worst climate and societal consequences of humanity’s bullshit in the coming decades? Welcome to GOONPAC. ----------------------------------------  Lots of goons are mad and sad and scared as hell about what’s going on in politics today. Lots of goons are hopeful about the upcoming election in 2020. Lots of goons are also afraid about what might happen, or don’t know very much about the election and all of the many races being contested nationwide. Lots of goons want to do their part but don’t know where to start or what they can contribute, be it nationally or at a more local level. Lots of goons feel alone where they live, or that whatever contribution they could make would be meaningless or a waste. If you’re a longtime reader of D&D you may have noticed a pattern: every so often a candidate for local/state/federal office will get people’s attention. Someone in USPOL will post about so-and-so’s attempt to unseat a piece-of-poo poo right wing politician or about a charismatic and dynamic primary challenger to a stodgy DINO incumbent. People will come in to give updates and share tweets and encourage people to donate or phone bank, but for the most part that information gets buried in the hundreds and hundreds of pages of slapfights and Trump tweet reactions and posts about food. Same thing goes for ballot initiatives and other similar campaigns. Similarly, after every major news scandal we’ll have people coming in just to vent. I’m scared and angry and I don’t know what I can do. I want to help beat these bastards but I don’t know where to start. GOONPAC seeks to organize worthwhile campaigns and causes, and get goons together to give their time, money, and skills. By creating a thread where all of the valuable "get involved!" stuff that gets buried in the D&D churn can live front-and-center, my hope is that we can harness some of the collective energy, expertise, and diabolical creativity that still drives these lovely forums, both dead and gay, for good. When goons get together, we accomplish poo poo. From funding the building of schools in Haiti, to raising tens of thousands of dollars for various disaster relief efforts, to saving Lowtax from the gaping maw of spinal fuckery and medical destitution, to the ill-fated attempt to help one Doobie build his Doghouse. Goons have given money, made phonecalls, gone to meetings, made art, created memes, and even offered their professional services to those in need. Imagine what a few concerned goons could do for some obscure state-level campaign in rural Maine or Ohio. Cesspits like 4/8chan and Reddit have a rich and fragrant tradition of boosting fascist politicians and talking points, and getting their ideology on the international stage. It's about time for their decrepit, jaded, alcoholic parent to step in. The OG Mother of And that's not this forum's only connection to the political mess we're in. If Vilerat knew the extent of the far right's success in exploiting his death over the last decade, and just how badly they were loving up the world with the power that they gained from it, he'd be rolling over in his grave. I, for one, would like to notch some 2020 wins in his honor. ---------------------------------------- Is GOONPAC actually a Political Action Committee? No. Not yet at least. This isn’t actually a PAC and we don’t need to register any financials with anybody. Maybe one day some goons will make a real deal org with money involved like those Chapo fellers, but for now let this simply be a place to post orgs/people worth donating to and to organize action. If you wanna make a facebook post to counter the garbage your chud aunt vomits onto the social media tubes then let this be a place to get support for that kind of thing. Or if you're organizing a signature-collecting trip and would like help or company. Or if you have a list of Justice Dem-approved candidates you'd like more people to know about. And so on. Does GOONPAC have a primary focus? Right now, I think our primary focus should be all of the races being contested in this US election cycle. That means November 2020 and also the various primaries and lead-up votes. So basically a wide open field within the United States. If anybody wants to start their own GOONPAC UK/Europe/Australia/Equestria thread they have my full endorsement. But we speak The White House and, to a lesser extent, both houses of Congress are up for grabs, along with literally thousands of seats at all levels nationwide. 2020 is probably our last best shot at averting multiple disasters on multiple fronts. Let's give it our best shot. trilobite terror fucked around with this message at 23:44 on Aug 15, 2019 |

 Resources DarkHorse posted:Primaries For Progress is a great resource for targeting specific winnable districts and pushing the Overton window left. Check them out for good candidates to support! Some good candidates to donate to: Congress: Sara Gideon- Democratic Speaker of the Maine House, challenger to Susan Collins (R, ME). If there's one Senate race worth paying attention to, it's this one. Join the upwelling of citizens working to make Collins pay for putting Judge Beer on the supreme court. Send the message that "bipartisanship" means more than just "shut your mouths and do what the right-wingers want".

THE VERY FIRST GOONPAC CHALLENGE Alkydere posted:Every 2 years everyone goes "BLUE TEXAS? BLUE TEXAS!" and as a Texan I laugh (and cry a bit, especially after Beto proved it was maybe possible if he had actually realized what he could do here because holy hell his coat-tails had some real pull). I would love it to happen but I try not to hope. BLUE TEXAS? BLUE TEXAS! From now (August 20, 2019) until the end of next month (Sept 30), let's throw our money at Texas races. Let's do our part to keep inflating the Democratic cash bubble in the Lonestar State, buoying the hopes of candidates and voters, drawing the attention and resources of the Democratic machine to races statewide, and forcing regressives to spend money on what everyone's accepted as their homiest of home turf. Let's help run the map eeeeverywhere. During the duration of this challenge, make donations to Texas races (follow the applicable laws). Then share them in this thread and reap the praise of your fellows. Brownie points will be awarded for finding interesting candidates, variety/breadth of candidate office, ability to cover the map, number of donations, etc. Judges, sheriffs, city councilors, state senators, water managers, it's all fair- as are donations to Texas based organizations doing progressive work. At the end of the challenge, we'll have a little celebration and hand out awards and give out participation trophies (gang tags?) and the teacher will bring in cookies and poo poo. *once we get enough movement I'll put a spreadsheet here*  ----------------------------------- Spiffster posted:In the meantime here is the Harris County Democratic Party donate page.

I think a great place to start is with Mckayla Wilkes, who is taking on Steny Hoyer in Maryland's 5th district. She's got a lot in common with AOC: great policy platform, straight from a struggling working class story, natural twitter pro, and going directly at a senior Democratic leadership position. Even a small donation to her will go a long way. https://mobile.twitter.com/meetmckayla/status/1124802649763786752

What's a good way to find potential primary challengers? I just moved from MD-7 to MI-8, and going from Elijah Cummings to New Democrat Elissa Slotkin is depressing. Given her behavior I don't think she can be pulled left, but I also don't see anyone gearing up to challenge her, and Lansing deserves better than a milquetoast ex-CIA centrist. (I couldn't get elected myself if I ran unopposed.)

As a registered PAC though, we could earmark donations for her the same way ActBlue does (although that’s a lot of extra work).

Ok, so I've quoted your suggested candidates at the top of the thread for now, and I'll keep adding good suggestions as they come in. Eventually I'd like to clean that up a bit so that we have little blurbs on people with links to their sites, Actblue pages, etc. If anybody wants to take a crack at making some of them I'd appreciate it. Nothing big- just a short paragraph (2-5 sentences) on the person, where they're running, and why that race is important/valuable/worth donating to, and then their requisite links. I think it might be worth looking at people that we want to lose (every republican in AL, MO, and GA for starters) too, so that goons can track those races and provide help/raise awareness/add social or economic pressure/etc. I don't think that GOONPAC can do very much to take down Mitch McConnell (though we should all do our part to help Amy McGrath!) but I think we can do a lot of good spotlighting people in local-level power who do bad poo poo (pointing out homophobic/transphobic city council members, etc) and signal boosting their challengers. Eventually there's gonna be a big list, separated by tier/state/etc depending on how this whole project evolves. Also if anybody wants to make some art or banners to dress this place up a bit, have at it.

This was the first time I got involved with real local politics and it was crazy. We got a widely progressive candidate (Alex Kithes) elected over a very conservative and connected incumbent (who is also 70). He won by like 100 votes. I can't wait to get involved with something a bit bigger, but the poo poo that took place in just this little local election was insane. The local newspaper posted a direct opposition piece against Kithes like a few days before the election. The local radio talk shows were all against him. While canvassing, the police "encouraged" me to move to other areas of the city and basically were huge jerks. It was such a sweet thing. I was going to post a thread about it, but this seems like a good place to say never underestimate what a few people can do, and how important local politics are. https://upriseri.com/2019-08-06-alex-kithes/

Mr. Dick approved pending legislation: https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/2382/text Cancel the onerous burden on the US Postal Service to provide a "prefunded retirement" slush fund for congress to dip its grubby hands into. Long and the short of it is that, under Bush, in an attempt to starve the postal service into privatization, it was forced to divert basically all of its income (the USPS does not receive ANY tax dollars, operations are funded entirely by postage) to prefund employee retirement 70 years in advance. It's been working, staffing is down to about half of what it was before the prefund got passed, mail processing machinery is decrepit, the vehicle fleet is 10-15 past its planned retirement, postal buildings are crumbling due to lack of maintenance. The fact that USPS service is still basically the best around only proves how wasteful capitalism is. The bill is current sitting in the house oversight and reform committee. So these are the people to pester to get it out of committee and onto the floor for a vote: https://oversight.house.gov/members This is a good issue to discuss with older people and/or chuds. They still use first class mail, still get print magazines and would be hit hard by the price increase if parcel delivery weren't basically subsidized. The postal service also represents one of the biggest chunks of unionized American labor and is probably the biggest employer of veterans. The most immediate benefit of getting the prefunding overturned would be an increase in the number of good, well paying union jobs. Not having the threat of bankruptcy hanging over the agency would also give the APWU, MHU, NALC and NRALC much more leverage in contract negotiations. This is probably Mr. Dick's favorite upcoming bill: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/116/hr2474 Rewrite/reword substantial parts of the National Labor Act so that it has teeth. Bill is currently sitting in the house education and labor committee: https://edlabor.house.gov/about/membership The Raise the Wage Act: https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/582/text Up the federal minimum wage to 15$/h over 6 years. Bill has already passed the house.
