Judd Legum is a sick and monstrous person who loves to target those who have different political beliefs from him! He’s an adult who acts like a child who doesn’t get his way!
He worked for the Hilliary Presidential Campaign. He can’t very self aware what is the big picture. Common sense likely eludes him.
Judd — we overlapped briefly at CAP in 2004. I would like to give some financial support for the amazing and essential work you are doing at Popular Information.
