Is Google automatically sending GOP emails
to spam folders?

This is one of those stories where if you’d told me about this as little as ten years ago I’d have accused you of falling victim to conspiracy theories. But in 2022 it took me all of a second or two before I nodded my head and said to myself, ‘yep. That checks out.’ The report in question, available at The Daily Wire, finds that fundraising emails from Republican groups and candidates are vastly more likely to wind up in the spam folders of G-mail users than similar broadcasts from Democratic outfits. The volume of these emails was staggering, measuring in the millions or tens of millions

Not into spam folders, but to cell phones where good spam filters put them directly into your text box. I am so sick of this I could almost leave my phone turned off, but there are important family and friends I enjoy hearing from, not every jackleg jerkwater running for dogcatcher in Bumfark Egypt. Did I mention you can order text filters from Play Store? Maybe it's Google. Maybe it's the DNC trying to pees me off.

I just noticed this yesterday when I went to empty my spam folder. There were GOP emails. I get mostly texts from GOP candidates, though, not emails.

Lately i have been “unsubscribing” all spam that doesn’t go into my junk folder. It seems to be working. Junk gets deleted en masse.

E-mails from Rona's GOP that solicit money are going to my junk mail by design. People we haven't heard from in six years suddenly treat us like their best friend and promise to do their job if reelected in November. Show me da work first, chumps.

Not addressed by the author is how many emails he received in his inbox from Dims compared to how many emails he received from Dims in his spam box. I am guessing near zero for both since he seems to be a Repub backer.

Nope. Naively thinking that changing my party affiliation to unaffiliated in January 2021 would at least reduce the volume of political email I get each day Bing is making sure I still get bombarded with many GOPe donation requests each and every day. Once you're "in the system", you're always "in the system".

Happens all the time. Even after I specifically label the emails NOT SPAM. After a few days, boom, they're back in the spam folder. But I keep labelling them NOT SPAM just to mess with their algorithms.

I haven’t used Google in years. It’s a corrupt, leftist entity now. I have a dormant gmail account that I haven’t checked in over a year but I’ll look today and see what sort of stuff has come in. As #2 said, somehow the GOP got my cell # and I am being deluged with texts from every Republican candidate in the country. No phone calls though. Maybe they have discovered that voice calls do more harm than good.

I got an absolute deluge of fund-raising emails after the Mar-a-Lago raid. None of which I asked to receive. So I marked them all as spam. The more recipients who mark something as spam, the more likely *any* email from that sender will be sent automatically to the spam folders of everyone else. Or simply not delivered at all. That's just how the spam-fighting system works. Perhaps all these Republican groups (most of which I had never even heard of) made a boatload of money off of Trump's troubles. But they've done lasting damage to their email marketing.

Seoul, South Korea — South Korea’s military appears to want to conscript members of the K-pop supergroup BTS for mandatory military duties, as the public remains sharply divided over whether they should be given exemptions. Lee Ki Sik, commissioner of the Military Manpower Administration, told lawmakers on Friday that it’s “desirable” for BTS members to fulfill their military duties to ensure fairness in the country’s military service. Earlier this week, Defense Minister Lee Jong-sup made almost identical comments about BTS at a parliamentary committee meeting, and Culture Minister Park Bo Gyoon said his ministry would soon finalize its position on the issue.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) traveled to Naples to perform the opening coin toss at a local high school football game on Friday, just days after Hurricane Ian ravaged the area. Naples High School faced off against Barron Collier High School at their home stadium on Friday evening. As Gov. Ron DeSantis walked towards the center of the field to perform the coin toss, the crowd erupted with loud applause and cheer. The game’s announcer noted that schools in Florida’s Collier County reopened on Thursday, eight days after Hurricane Ian made landfall causing record flooding, power outages, and catastrophic damage to southwest Florida.

Republicans seem to be surging with little more than one month before the midterms. There’s even the remarkable story of a Republican ahead by six points and likely to win a House seat in deep-blue territory in Rhode Island for the first time in 30 years. But right as we have that good news for the Republicans, there’s more bad news for the Democrats. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) Executive Director Tim Persico is saying that he doesn’t know if they’re going to have enough money. He said there “are places that I don’t know if we are going to be able to get to” to assist Democrats. “We are just getting outspent everywhere

We’ve reported on the raids of pro-life activists by armed FBI showing up at their homes for extremely minor things. First, there was author Mark Houck who was arrested by more than 20 armed agents in front of his screaming children at 7:00 a.m. in the morning. His alleged “federal offense”? He pushed a man who his wife said made offensive remarks to his son. He now faces 11 years in prison under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. But then the Biden FBI went after 11 pro-life activists who hadn’t even done that. We reported on the arrest of Chet Gallagher. All they did was non-violently peacefully protest outside an abortion clinic.

Just last week, Putin said in Red Square in front of a large crowd, “”Victory will be ours!” It’s worth seeing him say it to get a sense of his resolution on this point. Just skip to the end of this clip. How does a guy who is losing territory by the day have that much confidence? Like most authoritarian leaders, Putin lives in a bubble surrounded by people who are mostly afraid to burst that bubble. “He’s in a blind zone.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams declared a state of emergency Friday in response to the continued arrival of illegal migrants from southern states. More than 17,000 migrants have been bused to the city since the spring, a small fraction of the migrant encounters at the border over that timeframe. Fox News cameras at the Port Authority transportation terminal filmed eight buses arriving Friday, after nine arrived Thursday. Adams said that one in five people in the city's shelter system is a migrant, which is creating the "crisis." "This is a humanitarian crisis that started with violence and instability in South America and is being accelerated by American political dynamics,"

The Uvalde school board previously voted unanimously in August to fire district police chief Pete Arredondo over the botched police response.

President Joe Biden’s anti-drilling policies have cut oil supplies as much as the decision Wednesday by OPEC+ to slash two million barrels of oil production, an analysis by the Committee to Unleash Prosperity shows. If former President Donald Trump’s energy policies would have been continued, American oil production would be four to five times greater than the amount of oil Biden has released from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). According to the study, Biden’s war on American energy will cost the United States nearly $100 billion in output every year, which translates to between two and three million barrels of oil a day

First Lady Jill Biden offered a rare personal glimpse into her views on abortion during a political fundraiser in San Francisco on Friday, retelling the story of how her mother helped care for a teenage friend who got an abortion 60 years ago. Biden, who was 17 at the time, said her friend didn’t want to be pregnant, but learned that a doctor would only perform an abortion if she underwent a psychiatric evaluation and was declared mentally unfit. It was the late 1960s, before the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade decision, and abortion was illegal in Pennsylvania, where she

Some Chicago Marathon runners are feeling a little blue heading into this weekend’s race. One of the biggest events of the year for the sport followed Boston and London with the creation of a nonbinary division for runners who don’t identify as male or female. The lack of hype around the new inclusive division left some of those who identify as such with a bad taste in their mouths. According to the Chicago Sun-Times, there was no major announcement to coincide with the division.

At one point, the teen began acting oddly and went to the nurses’ station, where he grabbed the arm of a nurse and made “an unintelligible statement” before being asked to leave, the outlet said.
