IF THE FBI ASKS FOR ME, TELL’EM I’M OUTA TOWN
In April last year we ran this picture of Her Highness, the ‘Lovely Michelle’.
VeritasPAC Official Statement: At first we thought this was PhotoShopped or something. No one would wear this and everyone would know it and guffaw. Then we discovered it was for real and thought it was a seditious act of some fashion designer to put the first lady in this get up. Making a bafoonery of the office of First Lady should be dealt with as treason. Now we understand that the First Lady of her own volition was being fashionable and we apologize for our previous presumptions.
After events of the past couple of weeks, the all out assault by the Biden ‘army’ on Republicans and conservatives, the demand for “reeducation” of Trump supporters by DC and Hollywood elites, and the ‘cancel assault’ against everyone who worked in the previous administration by ‘big business’ and Democrats,, and especially the ‘incident’ of the past week…the FBI’s arrest and charging of ‘Rickey Vaughn’ (story below), we want to apologize for comments on these pages suggesting there might have been a teensy weensy bit of “irregularity” in the election, and, especially, forgive us for running this picture of our former First Lady.
No…we did not, however, ‘photoshop’ the picture nor did we have any racist impulses in running the photo…Michelle allowed herself to be photographed looking that ridiculous (oops! more apologies, sorry, sorry).
At any rate, we hope that the ‘nation’s premier law enforcement agency’ will forgive and allow us to escape the fate of Mr. Vaughn (below) for our transgressions against Democrats, past and present, at the highest levels of power within our federal government and for the possibility that we may have given voters ‘disinformation’..
Sincerely, your V’pac editor

Alt-right Twitter troll ‘Ricky Vaughn’ busted for voter disinformation

The man behind pro-Trump Twitter troll account “Ricky Vaughn” was busted in Florida on Wednesday for spreading disinformation during the 2016 presidential election in a scheme to limit black turnout, officials said.
Douglass Mackey, 31, was arrested in West Palm Beach on one charge of conspiracy against rights, for which he faces up to 10 years in prison.
Between September and November 2016, Mackey allegedly conspired with others to use social media messaging to encourage blacks to cast their votes via text message so their ballots wouldn’t count, according to Brooklyn federal prosecutors.
On Nov. 1, one week before the presidential election that ushered in President Donald Trump’s term, Mackey allegedly tweeted an image of a black woman in front of an “African Americans for President Hillary” sign. Written on the photograph was the message, “Avoid the Line. Vote from Home. Text ‘Hillary’ to 59925. Vote for Hillary and be a part of history,” the complaint states.
More than 4,900 people, encouraged by the misinformation campaign, cast their vote via text, officials said.
“There is no place in public discourse for lies and misinformation to defraud citizens of their right to vote,” said Acting US Attorney for the Eastern District of New York Seth DuCharme.
Mackey’s Twitter account under the name Vaughn — Charlie Sheen’s character in “Major League” — had attracted more than 58,000 followers by early 2016.
That same year, the MIT Media Lab ranked him as the 107th most important social media influencer of the presidential election, coming in ahead of NBC News and the Drudge Report, officials said.
After it was revealed in 2018 that Mackey was the man behind Vaughn, the Huffington Post called him an “‘alt-right’ white nationalist” who used his alter ego to peddle racist and anti-Semitic views.
Mackey is expected to appear Wednesday afternoon before US Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart at the West Palm Beach federal courthouse.
Note to readers: The Washington Post had a related story with a chilling (to our way of thinking) reference to the charge “conspiracy against rights“. We intend to dissect the implications of what has been reported and the underlying law Mackey is charged with violating.
The very idea that I would scroll past some meme, or see some salacious story from a unfamiliar source and that flash of random information trips a switch in my brain, and my choice for the presidency is made?!? If that actually happens en-mass, we’re doomed.
