"He has your social security number."

Fwd'd to Claude...

TIA...

They aren't all that expensive. I looked up prices in my area. They range $1,500 to $3,500/month.

Here are some of my thoughts.

A few simple words, and perhaps an image. A website listed that directs people to more information. Eg: When it is about Musk - direct them to a website that has all the articles about what he and his band of computer hacker "bros" are doing at Treasuty. Other malfeasances (possible crimes) that involve Musk include the take over at OPM; the disbanding of USAID, and the repercussions for global health and security; there is more in the works.

Other topics to cover include what is going on at the FBI; the firing of the IG's: ; the funding freeze at OMB; the Cabinet Secretaries who are a danger to our security and our Democracy.

I don't know how to build out a website, but I have some ideas for content.

I have some ideas for "catchy" domain names.

I was wondering how we could "fundraise". I could probably rally a few friend to contribute. Should we do it locally or create a better method or clearinghouse?

I think we should not limit the billboards to "red" states. I live in New England, and there a lot of uninformed and misinformed people everywhere.

Maybe people could identify strategic locations - somewhere where the traffic isn't traveling too fast...or too congested to read. But, places that are well traveled.

I engaged in a couple of posts with others who showed interest. I will go look for them in my DU journal. I communicated with someone earlier who was making a protest sign that I thought would be a great billboard.

I would be happy to collaborate. I have been trying to figure out how I can help to save our democracy. I have been doing what I can from my computer and my phone. You have been on DU much longer than me. How do we proceed from here, in order to move this idea forward?

Thank you for putting this out there.




UPDATE: I just read a couple of other replies. I express my humble opinion, because I have given this a lot of thought. I think the messages on billboards should stay away from meme type content and vitriole. They need to be simple and matter of fact, and not antagonistic. The message needs to be compelling and inviting, so that the misinformed will want to know more.

With the $1.6 billion the Harris campaign had they could have run 21,654 billboards for 4 weeks.

to make money by turning your car into a billboard. You put a temporary vinyl sign on it, go about your business, and then many people would see it as you travel.

The cost would be to have the sign made. Of course, it would be risky, but you could remove the sign and put it in your trunk when you get to where you're going.
