By statute, 26 U.S.C. 501(c)(3) nonprofits have to disclose donor info to the IRS, though the info is not public.
By regulation, that reporting was extended to all 501(c) nonprofits.
Mnuchin just undid the regulation and so the reporting only applies to 501(c)(3) organizations (non-profit, contributions are deductible, no political campaigning)

The NRA is a 501(c)(4) organization (non-profit, contributions not deductible, can use 49% of its money for political purposes)

Thanks for clearing this up.

My CEO does this poo poo, he'll circle one number on a spreadsheet p&l statement with a marker and then wtlte a a comment like "great job" or something. Then the initials of all the management in my direct chain hand it to his secretary who then scams it and emails it to me. Then I have to write a response to his comment, send it to my boss for review who then sends it to her boss for approval. They then send that back to me with edits. After which I then send the response to the CEO.



Every time I see Trump do that I think of this bullshit. Please tell me this isn't common in corporate America.

I remember hearing years ago that Bezos will send people in Amazon corporate an email with the subject "?" and the body being a comment from a customer in a ticket. So if something wasn't working right and Jeffe saw it, you had best get it done.

Nowadays since he's worth ~150bn he probably just has a mercenary team murder whoever was responsible and erase their existence.

So I was reading some Twitter threads on the Butina stuff and I saw a photo of her in a style that stood out to me, low and behold she’s got a connection to none other than Oleg Volk who is/was (at least in the early to mid 2000s before I got banned from several gun forums for being a LIEberal) a minor celebrity in the online gun world known for his weird portrait photos of people holding guns.

http://blog.olegvolk.net/2015/08/02/coming-all-the-way-from-russia/

He himself AFAIK is a Russian immigrant. Could be totally coincidental but it’s kind of an interesting footnote to this story if you’ve frequented gun forums in the past two decades.

There was no collusion, I don't even drive because I have showfurs drivers for that, I'm so wealthy, and even if I did, I'm the remarkably best driver everybody says so, I have never had a collusion, ever.

I stopped paying attention to Volk's work after he started doing the photoshoots with the pre-teen/young teen girls, it had a weird vibe to it.
Lo and behold I follow your link, click the mainpage and this line jumps out.

"One of my longtime friends just turned 18. One advantage of dealing with well-raised home-schooled kids — they act like mature humans a lot sooner than most, so Grace and I have worked together since she was 12."

He still seems creepy to me.
