You sure ain't kidding! USA is well and truly fucked.

AI is a great tool - I asked whether there was any restriction on raising funds for any purpose

GoFundMe has specific "Prohibited Conduct" sections in their Terms of Service that ban campaigns for certain purposes. Based on their most recent policies (including updates relevant to 2025–2026), you cannot start an appeal for the following:

1. Legal Defense for Violent Crimes
This is the most relevant criterion regarding your previous question about the ICE agent. GoFundMe explicitly prohibits raising money for the legal defense of alleged financial and violent crimes.
  • The Rule: The policy generally applies when formal charges are filed. It covers crimes such as murder, assault, battery, robbery, and sex crimes.
  • Nuance: If a person has not been formally charged with a violent crime, GoFundMe may allow the campaign to remain active. This is likely why the campaign for Agent Ross (who, according to reports, had not been charged as of early Jan 2026) was able to raise funds, whereas campaigns for people formally charged with murder are typically removed.
2. Hate, Violence, and Harassment
You cannot raise funds for causes that promote or support:
  • Hate speech or discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity.
  • Acts of violence or terrorism.
  • Bullying, harassment, or intolerance of any kind.
  • Groups or individuals known to promote hate (e.g., KKK, Neo-Nazis).
3. Misinformation and Fraud
  • False Claims: Campaigns that contain misleading or factually incorrect information about the organizer, beneficiary, or purpose.
  • Medical Misinformation: Campaigns promoting medical treatments that are prohibited by health authorities or widely recognized as baseless/dangerous (e.g., anti-vaccination misinformation).
4. Dangerous Items and Activities
  • Weapons: You cannot raise money to purchase firearms, ammunition, or explosives.
  • Illegal Drugs: Campaigns for narcotics, steroids, or drug paraphernalia are banned.
5. Financial Crimes and Gambling
  • Money Laundering: Any activity intended to hide the origin of money.
  • Gambling: You cannot fundraise for raffles, lotteries, sweepstakes, or sports betting syndicates.
6. Sexual Content
  • Campaigns related to pornography or other sexual content are prohibited.
7. Embargoed Countries
  • You cannot raise funds for individuals or entities located in countries under comprehensive US sanctions (e.g., Iran, North Korea, Syria).

GoFundMe released a statement on Monday, January 12, 2026, regarding the campaign for ICE agent Jonathan Ross.

Here are the specific details of their official response and current position:
1. The Official Statement
A GoFundMe spokesperson stated that their "Trust & Safety team is currently reviewing all fundraisers related to the shooting in Minneapolis to ensure they are compliant with our terms of service."

2. The Key Distinction: "Formally Charged"
The spokesperson clarified how they are applying the "Violent Crime" policy in this specific case. They stated that the platform prohibits fundraisers for the legal defense of anyone "formally charged with a violent crime."
  • Why it remains active: Because Jonathan Ross has not been formally charged with a crime as of January 13, 2026, the campaign does not currently violate this specific interpretation of their policy.
  • Implication: If prosecutors were to file charges against the agent in the future, the campaign would likely be removed immediately under this rule.
3. Discrepancy Noted by Media
Journalists (specifically from the Minnesota Star Tribune) noted a discrepancy between the written Terms of Service and the spokesperson's statement.
  • Written Terms: The written policy bans "the legal defense of financial and violent crimes"—it does not explicitly include the words "formally charged."
  • Application: However, GoFundMe appears to be using the "formally charged" standard as the trigger for enforcement, allowing the campaign to continue for now.
4. Current Status
As a result of this decision, the campaign (organized by Clyde Emmons) remains active. Reports from late Monday, January 12, indicate the total has now surpassed $500,000.

The primary alternative platform hosting campaigns for Jonathan Ross is GiveSendGo, which markets itself as a "free speech" alternative to GoFundMe and has significantly different policies regarding legal defense funds.
Here is the breakdown of the campaigns on that platform as of January 13, 2026:
1. The GiveSendGo Campaigns
  • Total Raised: The main campaign on GiveSendGo (titled "Stand With Our Brave ICE Hero") has raised over $186,000 (approaching its $200,000 goal).
  • Combined Total: Between GoFundMe (~$500k) and GiveSendGo (~$186k), the total support pledged to the agent is now approaching $700,000.
  • Direct Support: unlike GoFundMe, which is still verifying the beneficiary, GiveSendGo co-founder Jacob Wells publicly stated he has spoken directly with Agent Ross to arrange the transfer of funds.
2. Key Policy Differences (Why it's allowed here)
GiveSendGo generally permits campaigns that GoFundMe bans. Their specific stance includes:
  • "Innocent Until Proven Guilty": GiveSendGo explicitly allows fundraising for the legal defense of individuals charged with violent crimes (e.g., they previously hosted funds for Kyle Rittenhouse and Daniel Penny). They state that denying access to legal defense funds is a form of censorship.
  • No "Violent Crime" Ban: Unlike GoFundMe, they do not have a policy that automatically removes campaigns based on the nature of the alleged crime.
3. Controversy & Content
The GiveSendGo campaign has been more politically aggressive in its language than the GoFundMe equivalent:
  • Rhetoric: The campaign page referred to the victim (Ms. Good) as a "radical leftist agitator" and a "domestic terrorist."
  • Antisemitism Controversy: The campaign originally included an attack on Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey that specifically referenced his Jewish identity. After significant backlash and media attention, that specific reference was deleted, but the rest of the campaign remains active.
4. Other Platforms
While GiveSendGo is the main alternative, there have been smaller, unverified campaigns appearing on other fringe platforms, but none have gained the financial traction of the main two.

I noticed the slogan in front of the podium the Secretary of Homeland Security was using and it triggered something so again I turned to AI

1768226919961.webp
​
The phrase "One of Ours, All of Yours" gained prominence in January 2026 when it appeared on a podium used by Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem.

Here is the breakdown of its usage and the controversy surrounding its history:

1. Immediate Context (January 2026)
  • The Incident: The slogan appeared on a placard on the front of Secretary Noem's podium during a press conference in Manhattan on January 8, 2026.
  • The Timing: This press conference occurred just one day after the shooting of Renee Nicole Good. While the press conference was ostensibly held to discuss an unrelated shooting of an off-duty agent in New York, critics viewed the timing and the slogan as a direct message regarding the Minneapolis incident.
  • The Meaning: In this context, the slogan acts as a statement of retribution and collective punishment. It implies that if "one of ours" (a federal agent) is harmed or threatened, the agency will come after "all of yours" (the opposing community, protesters, or the public). It signals a doctrine of overwhelming force in response to any resistance against federal agents.
2. Historical & Controversial Origins
Critics and historians immediately flagged the phrase as having roots in—or strongly echoing—fascist rhetoric and Nazi collective punishment logic.
  • Nazi Retribution: The phrase is often cited as a summary of the brutal retributive logic used by the Nazis in occupied territories during World War II. The most famous example is the Lidice massacre (1942), where the assassination of one high-ranking Nazi official (Reinhard Heydrich) led to the liquidation of an entire village ("One of ours, all of yours").
  • Fascist Rallying Cry: While not as ubiquitous as other slogans, it has been described by historians and political commentators as a doctrine of terror used to dissuade resistance by promising disproportionate retaliation against the wider group rather than just the individual responsible.
3. Public Reaction
  • Criticism: The use of the slogan was widely condemned by civil rights groups and media outlets (such as The American Prospect) as a "fascist rallying cry" and a "dog whistle." Critics argued that for a U.S. government official to adopt a slogan associated with collective punishment—especially in the wake of a controversial shooting of a civilian—was an explicit threat to the American public.
  • Interpretation: It was interpreted as the DHS signaling that they view the public (or specific segments of it) as an enemy combatant force rather than citizens to be protected

Of course you should post it. This thread is becoming very Schizo.
Getting to the stage where I'm going to have to AI every comment, statement, U tube video, x post and and most of all Buzz to get a handle on how the Wah's are doing, never mind what's going on in the rest of the world. ;)

So, if we have a FBI presence here, do we also have ICE looking for escapees and because I drive a Yank Tank, am I person of interest. Watch this space. If I don't post for a few weeks, I'm on holiday or in Guantanamo as I've heard Cuba is next cab off the rank
