Despicable Intimidation Tactics

I had read a story about this a few weeks back. At the time, I was positive if it was true, the effort would die out quickly. However, I also was very upset that any group, conservative or liberal, would think its proper to threaten citizens and to demand they not participate in our democratic process.
To do this, a group has to be outside the law. Demanding someone comport with specific orders of one group over another is a racket. Organized crime tried to do this and eventually they were exposed and prosecuted for their actions. However, in the meantime, they adversely affected the outcome of who knows how many elections?! In today's world, the time available to wait for such groups to be prosecuted is very little. Time is the critical element in such affairs today.
These folks should be prosecuted under "RICO Act" guidelines, plus they should face federal election law violations prosecutions. In addition to this, if these group actually carry out their threats, investigators should look at who all is behind such an organization. Because those pushing this group into action should also face prosecution. The uber wealthy have lately used their wealth to force actions by politicians and government officials, that is either not in the public interests or provides them with a specific result that is in their special interests. Either is a crime against the American public.
We have people involved in our political processes today who should not be involved. We have international financial types, international diplomatic types, foreign governments types, and others who are not citizens, actively acting to affect our national political system. These actions must be curtailed immediately. There is no justification of a foreign entity acting to affect our political processes. And, the wealthy do not participate in these activities w/o expecting substantial returns for their investments. George Soros is a citizen as far as I know. However, why would a billionaire invest the "HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of dollars he has, unless he expected to be able to demand a return for his favors? He cannot become president, but he can pull the strings of the presidency if a president owes him favors for the money's he has contributed. No one invests these kinds of money's unless they expect or have been promised specific favors in return. If no favors are expected or promised, then why would one of these very wealthy people invest so much money?
Judicial Watch does American citizens great justice when they watch over these activities and those involved, and when their investigations uncover and allow legal proceedings to be conducted to prosecute those who violate our laws, because they used their influences to force results that otherwise in a fair accounting would never have happened!
Go get em JW!
