    She should start playing Witchy Woman by the Eagles at her rallies to troll the maga cultists. It will eventually get picked up and reported by all the hard right media outlets, and then they will lose their minds even more than they already have.

      I gotta admit, I was just enjoying the novelty of being able to crosspost between !politics and !witchymemes with content actually relevant to both.

    Who knew she do the voodoo she do so well? I hope to hell that she leans into this and uses it in her campaign. Maybe dress up as a witch for Halloween and go trick or treating with her cat? Or the next time she has an interview, at some point she can counter a republican comment of some kind, then face the camera and go “boo” or wriggle her nose (ala Bewitched) and smirk.

    Hopefully the IRS gets ahold of the news.

    “Under the Internal Revenue Code, all section 501©(3) organizations are absolutely prohibited from directly or indirectly participating in, or intervening in, any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for elective public office. Contributions to political campaign funds or public statements of position (verbal or written) made on behalf of the organization in favor of or in opposition to any candidate for public office clearly violate the prohibition against political campaign activity. Violating this prohibition may result in denial or revocation of tax-exempt status and the imposition of certain excise taxes.”

      Unfortunately, churches have pretty much had free reign to say whatever they want and keep their tax exempt status since Bush.

        They are going after billionaires and big corporations now that they received more funding. Maybe after they collect the large backwards owed, they will go after those violating 501 c3 status.
