Why don’t they show their affiliation on the phone screen? My name pops up on their phone when I call someone.

I would rather know who to ignore, rather than having it possibly wrongly chosen, for me.

This also happens on home router “banned IP lists” from the public.

I do get legitimate calls from the GOP Republican Senate Campaign Committee.

I usually totally ignore them.

Some months back I decided to answer them for a change.

A man started talking some shpeel and I kept telling him to stop, stop, stop until he did.

Then I told him point blank.’

1. Take my number off your list.
2. I have not and do not contribute to your outfit.’
3. I do not trust it, at all, period.
4. If there is a GOP Senate candidate I like, I give to their individual campaign, never to your outfit.
6. Your outfit too often picks candidates that are not the choice of the grass roots of the GOP in their state.
7. That is why years ago there was a separate GOP Conservative Senate Campaign Committee - yours is not and was not trustworthy.
8. Again - TAKE ME OFF YOUR LIST.

And I hung up at that point.

Leftists get on the call lists sold from election committee to election committee.

Then when they get robo-called, they hit the “scam likely” button.

A few thousand of there and Verizon, T-Mobile and others just dump the calls.

The GOPe just took $1.2 trillion from us taxpayers in the form of adding to the national debt, took our rights away with a FISA extension, and sent $60 billion to the oligarchies in Ukraine in a span of a couple months.

It’s a scam no matter how you look at it.

Block them.
