The brother of Democratic presidential candidate, former Obama administration secretary, and ex-San Antonio mayor Julian Castro doxxed donors to President Donald Trump on Aug. 6, calling them out by name in what one critic called “a dangerous escalation” in the wake of the recent mass shootings.

Joaquin Castro, a Democratic Texas representative and chair of his brother’s presidential campaign, published a list of 44 donors who live in San Antonio and gave the maximum possible amount to the Trump campaign this year.

The list included the names of each donor in addition to the companies they work for. Some were listed as retired, or homemaker.

Here is the Tweet by Joaquin Castro, brother of Julian Castro.

Sad to see so many San Antonians as 2019 maximum donors to Donald Trump — the owner of ⁦@BillMillerBarBQ⁩, owner of the ⁦@HistoricPearl, realtor Phyllis Browning, etc⁩.

Their contributions are fueling a campaign of hate that labels Hispanic immigrants as ‘invaders.’

Folks, this is called doxxing and it is from a Democrat. Really bad. He should be charged.

These people will go to any lengths t oget more power, it is time to fight back with their dirty tricks. That is the only way to end it. Turning the other cheek only makes them bolder.

Threat? Rep. Castro Warns Potential Trump Donors They'd Better 'Think Twice' Before Supporting the President (https://pjmedia.com/video/rep-castro-says-he-hopes-his-tweet-publicizing-names-of-trump-donors-leads-other-potential-donors-to-think-twice/)

Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-Texas) doubled down Wednesday on his decision to doxx 44 San Antonio area Trump donors on Twitter, saying it was simply a "lament" that will hopefully lead Trump supporters (and others around the country)  to "think twice" about donating to the president's reelection campaign.

The Texas Democrat is the campaign chairman of his brother Julián Castro's Democratic presidential campaign.
...
As host Joe Scarborough indicated in a couple of tweets yesterday, he fully supports Castro's decision to doxx the Trump donors because they are "complicit" in spreading the president's "white supremacy."

Since this is both a threat and intended to discourage political participation, I'm wondering if these are a a pretty severe pair of felonies, and implicate his brother's campaign.

so this is what the democrat party feels about freedom of speech.  If you don't support their candidate, they will try to publicly shame you  for not having the "right" mindset in who you support.

remind me again who are the fascists...

IMO, "think twice" is a threat, and not just of being "shamed".

Joaquin Castro, Super Genius outed several of his own and his brother's donors (https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/six-trump-donors-joaquin-castro-tried-to-shame-also-gave-to-him-and-brother-julian). I think they may be less than happy.
