    The left has claimed Trump is ineligible to run for POTUS because they
    allege he engaged in an insurrection. The 14th Amendment also
    disqualifies those who give aid and comfort to those who engage in an insurrection. Kamala Harris supported a bail fund for those who
    engaged in insurrections following the death of George Floyd. If we
    apply the same standard to both, then Kamala should be expelled from
    office. But since when has the left ever lived by the same standards
    they establish for others.

    I vote no.

    If you’re able to, chip in now to the Minnesota Freedom Fund to help post
    bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota.

    Kamala-Backed Bail Fund Sees Revenues Plummet By 98 Percent

    The Minnesota Freedom Fund used donations to free alleged murderers and pedophiles

    But the Minnesota Freedom Fund spent only $210,000 to help bail people out
    of jail facing protest-related charges, the group reported in September
    2020.

    Much of its windfall went to post bail for individuals charged with
    violent crimes such as Christopher Boswell, a twice-convicted rapist, and Timothy Wayne Columbus, who faced up to 30 years in prison for allegedly sexually assaulting an eight-year-old girl in 2015. The Minnesota Freedom
    Fund spent $75,000 each to secure Columbus’s release in July 2020 pending trial, according to court records obtained by the Daily Caller.

    Biden staff donate to group that pays bail in riot-torn Minneapolis

    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Campaign staff for Democratic presidential
    candidate Joe Biden are advertising their donations to a group that pays
    bail fees in Minneapolis after the city's police jailed people protesting
    the killing of a black man by a white police officer.

    At least 13 Biden campaign staff members posted on Twitter on Friday and Saturday that they made donations to the Minnesota Freedom Fund, which
    opposes the practice of cash bail, or making people pay to avoid pre-trial imprisonment. The group uses donations to pay bail fees in Minneapolis.

    Biden campaign spokesman Andrew Bates said in a statement to Reuters that
    the former vice president opposes the institution of cash bail as a
    "modern day debtors prison."

    But the campaign declined to answer questions on whether the donations
    were coordinated within the campaign, underscoring the politically thorny nature of the sometimes violent protests.
