Should the Democrat Party Propaganda Minister Also be The Press Secretary for NH-OFA?

OFA is a non-political non-profit now, right?  One of those groups US Senator Jeanne Shaheen was so concerned about being overtly political while actively pursuing or having (abusing was it?) a 501(c) tax free status, or something?  (I know, OFA would get a waiver.) So should the paid Communications director for the New Hampshire Democrat …

Notable Quote – Heather Mac Donald

The New Racism whose name cannot be mentioned (emphasis mine): Children on Chicago’s South Side are escorted to school through a phalanx of “security workers in neon vests, police officers on patrol, an idling city fire truck and, briefly, a police helicopter hovering above.” Similar school escort programs exist in other cities. It’s no longer …
