A tarp barn. These people are revolutionizing farmland architecture. You are laughing, but they are pioneers, like those other guys who did that thing that was good.
I will give them credit, this is lasting longer than I thought it would.

 

[AnOminous]

If he is a co-owner he's even more fucked, because he's on the hook for mortgage payments. The Tranch is undoubtedly in negative equity because the place is ruined and worth less than they paid for it, so they can't just sell up.

If he is a co-owner, he could really fuck them over by forcing a partition sale.

 

[Swiss46]

I can't even imagine what their bookkeeping must look like.

It's a pretty bold assumption that they're doing any book keeping at all.

Reservations are a bit different too.

I was going to say, credit where it’s due and all that, if they really raised 3 grand and gave it to a family they didn’t appear to know, that’s objectively good of them.
Still probably tax fraud, but nice.

That family sure do look needy, what with the nice house & everything; even though that place is probably bigger than what many of us live in.

That's saying that they actually live on pine ridge and not just adjacent to it.

Also I will say that even if you have a home that's "nice" you can still hit financial hard times. Definitely a friend they're giving back to though. Not the community they're SUPPOSED to be giving to (troons and sanctuary for alpacas) but they need all the grift money they can get from that for themselves. So this is where they can get NEW donors thinking they're giving something different (natives). So you can double your milking power.

So Pine Ridge is in South Dakota, and they said this family is in Denver. But the metro area covers several different counties, so open carry is most likely OK where they were legally, if not from the retarded larping point of view.

As far as the level of neediness. Yeah it looked like a nice middle class family to me too, seeing the furnishings and tidy home. Could be a job was lost and suddenly they’re facing eviction. Would you want that to happen to friends of yours?
Sure, it’s not what the fundraiser said it was for. The motives are clearly mixed and suspicious, but on the face of it they still helped some people out who aren’t themselves, imo.

Gonna be interesting to see where it goes from here though. Will money keep rolling in and donations actually make it to the reservation, or is that the purpose served now?

Places like Boulder are no-go zones for open/any carry as well. The whole of Denver is the same. I used to use the Castle Rock exit on 25 as the stop to stow everything, anytime I was going to Denver.

Except the sudden-eviction thing doesn't happen anymore; by design, it's hard as hell to remove people from their homes now, and the banks/lenders send reams of notices months ahead of time.

And I'm talking actual houses, not apartments like Alyssa's with six month to 1 year leases; evicting people from those is a completely different story, and landlords have the process essentially on speed-dial.

Plus losing a job because it suddenly doesn't exist, (not quitting) means they're eligible for a shitload of unemployment & other benefits.

Slightly late, but isn't Anahid Phil's step-grandmother/adopted mother/whatever? Does she donate to all their e-begging campaigns or did they manage to scam her on this one?

I think she does she always comments like "someone on the tranch is very special to me"

 

[PitcherInTheWheat]

Mutual aid means community based, as opposed to a government or organization support, such as federal aid. It's not simultaneously mutually beneficial, where one party gets money and another gets a product as others in the thread have speculated. It's mutual in that, someone in the community with means donates to me when I'm in need, and I donate when someone else in the community is in need, if I have the means.

While charitable organizations can donate to individuals in the form of grants, it is highly unusual that those monies are used in a way that does not align to the organizational mission or charitable purpose. For example, if I were part of a charitable organization supporting individuals with developmental disabilities (DD) we may want to provide a grant to a local independent living center. While the center doesn't work exclusively with people with DD, developmentally delayed individuals often do need support living independently. Therefore, we have overlapping interests and this would be appropriate. However, we wouldn't give a grant to, say, fund breast cancer research.

Alternatively, a 501(c)(3) can also act as a fiscal sponsor for another group, in lieu of them establishing their own nonprofit . When acting as a fiscal sponsor, the 501(c)(3) enters into a contractual agreement and they collect tax deductable donations on another's behalf, usually retaining a percentage for administrative costs. When looking for the TUR's motive, this seems the most likely scenario (besides being performative). However, this is also generally done between organizations with overlapping interests.

I would venture to guess that they do not have a contractual relationship nor has any selection committee been formed. Plus, since Penny is likely the sole decision maker, the first recipient is a long-time friend, a separate account probably wasn't opened, the activity likely doesn't align to the organizational purpose (I haven't read any of their documents but there certainly isn't an immediate logical connection) and it's being given in cash... This definitely appears that they're using other peoples' money as their own, and not according to the way they've told the IRS they would. It seems to be more of a passthrough situation (read: tax fraud) than a fiscal sponsorship.

Fiscal sponsorships can be a good thing but can also be tricky, especially for small organizations without planning, training or attorneys. This can go wrong really fast and jeopardize their tax exempt status.

Here's another thread about a troon acting as a fiscal sponsor, that went left-- resulting in jail time: Thread 'Jorey Lee Brewis / Katt Brewis / kattcrazed / kisakattful / pdxtranspride / kattsense' https://kiwifarms.net/threads/jorey...ed-kisakattful-pdxtranspride-kattsense.28882/

You might want to add tax fraud and prison to the tranch downfall poll.

Edit: words hard

Remember that Pine Ridge was the reservation that was scheduled to get fucked by the Keystone XL pipeline project until Biden put a stop to it last year. Penny probably remembered them from the news, and because it was the only reservation he could think of, decided to enlist them in his racist little noble-savage scam.

>Keystone XL pipeline
Oh... let's just say because of where it passed (the pipeline would have helped the economy around somewhere where i have family and friend) and what i have learned in this thread about Pine Ridge that Pine Ridge and the Tranch deserve one another

I dont think you understood fully what you read fren so disagree but i still love you.

Likelihood a group of grifting liars lied about circumstances for a grift even if it was to help someone else= very very likely

Liklihood a complete sovereign first nation tribe who isn't even located in the same state where they are, didn't announce any collabs, and just happen to show up as one of the two tribes they're "supporting" is in cahoots with them= unlikely

The equivalent is like saying the state of Virginia personally has it out for CWC. It could happen but isn't likely especially based on the totality of the circumstances given.

The Indians they helped are ;

1. Probably just tribal members of that tribe or tribe(s) (you don't need to live on the rez to be a card carrying member of a tribe, you can live out of state and still have your Washington Football Team card)
2. CLEARLY these are people who helped them out before because they said it themselves and that they are "very special to them" because Phil said so himself.
3. CLEARLY they are local because they took a troon family trip for it where Kevin got a transformer toy. If Kevin had to sit in the car for more than an hour or so he would have thrown a ma'amtrum or Twitterbitched about being ~so exhausted~
4. If it was a money laundering the family they helped would likely be affiliated with tribal leaders. So. That's another dive

TL;DR- least sinister case these are just people they know and they SJW'd up the premise of the grift to make it look amazing. Worst case they are funneling money because this is super sussy amogus of them.

 

[Dunkleosteus]

Regarding the car GFMs, aren't second hand cars getting extremely pricey over in the States cause of wuflu shit? Even the shitty ones? What could they actually even get for 6k (probably less, no one cares about Jared) in the current market?

And why do they need many cars? It certainly isn't cause they're feeding their victims or doing anything productive on their blighted land. Is Kevin so fat he wears them out fast with every Target or Costco trip?

 

[Arealsomalipirate]

I've never thought about that actually. When those states out west are ripe for wildfires do they go around giving fines for fireworks like they do with campfires and stuff? Must be pretty wild to have a new years eve or 4th of july during a dry windy wildfire season.

We get fire restrictions if the conditions are bad. You can't even run a chainsaw or go 4wheeling due to the risk. Anybody living in these parts knows fire season is no joke, shit gets real scary real quick. Between the animal abuse and destroying the land I'm feeling a little MATI

 

[AGPinochet]

I can't give you exact numbers right now (even If I could I probably couldn't adequately explain to you what they mean) but yeah, the CPI and other shit is all fucked up for a lot of products and Used Cars are among the most fucked up on the list.

I've seen estimates of an average 25-30% price hike in continental Europe which lines up with what I'm seeing. The banger you couldn't sell in 2019 was the hottest shit in 2021.

Editing this post: Why? Because this fundraising push is bothering the hell out of me. Like everyone else here, I've been looking for references to the Tranch plus Pine Ridge OR Lakota OR Oglala. I can't find any connections. So I looked around from Tranch plus transgender services/groups/etc on that reservation. There are LOTS of groups that are fighting for LGBTA+ rights on that reservation; why aren't the Tranchers championing and teaming up with one of those groups. This is so suspicious.

'Jaime Lee Wounded Arrow' if you're going to have a retarxed name then go full retard, or otherwise have a normal name. What's the point of this shit? It's hardly 'honouring your history' since a) wounded and arrow are english words
b) its mixed with a western name

is solvent abuse related brain damage inheritable?
