Stop with the leading questions in your survey please. That would be a start. I don't mind doing the survey but I really just don't like some of the questions or they way they are worderd.

Let me ask the leftist liberal groups who feel they can push their views and beliefs on EVERYONE..... So you are all on board with one government mandate for every subject concerning its citizens? If I feel I have been discriminated against or a person from my race were killed, I can then burn, lute, riot, and physically attack anyone who i feel disagrees? That is exactly what your so-called peaceful activists do. If you feel there has been a terrible wring-doing then properly take steps to fix it. When you riot and lute.....YOU ARE now a criminal and be it 30 days in jail or probation or life sentence... all of your rights are on hold. No VOTING, no Free cable and education. Prisons should be self sustaining and inmates who do not have life sentences or a sentence that leaves them too old at release should have a job in prison and exemplary record to show they really want to be reformed to be able to be released into society. Prisons are over crowded because we have WEAK punishments for them and they just keep repeating crimes knowing they can handle Prison because it's too easy inside.. Police are there to make sure people follow laws. You break them? Tough S__T! The cops are not there to say...." Please don't run or attack me or shoot me or lie to my face.."......AND make sure the criminal is all comfy and cozy. I am sick and tired of the rest of the world giving us crap whenever we think of ourselves first. We are suffering because our current government is literally giving away our country that us blu collar workers built to ILLEGALS and ""OTHERS"" who are not contributing to America's welfare. Look at Venezuela folks..... that's us in near future if we don't think about US first and remove the festering sores in government. The Congress and Senate have to have shorter terms as does Supreme Court. A sitting President is useless when same "OLD" beings waist space on Capital Hill. Representatives should be mandated to RESIDE IN THEIR DISTRICT and CANNOTT LUVE IN A HOUSE MORE EXOENSIVE THAN THE AVERAGE HOME IN SAID DISTRICT. If you don't live like your constituents, how do you know what they are experiencing? The answer is You Don't ...and that makes you a liar and a hypocrite.
Just Stop And Think before you do something more stupid and bury us any deeper. PLEASE

How on earth did these people get my address? I've never even heard of them, let alone signed up for their stuff. They sent this ludicrous letter to me, full of conspiracy theory nonsense about the Big Lie, and asked me for money. I mean, they name-dropped George Soros and their whole letter was riddled with claims and "studies" with absolutely no footnotes or references (but a lot of all-caps, bolded type, and underlines). It was utter tripe. HOW DID THEY GET MY ADDRESS?

Moral, ethical, fighting the good fight! God bless the work you do!

They have been charging my dad over the months, who passed away in February.. I asked for a refund, and the did not cooperate. They said I had to notify them right after he passed, then the would cancel the recurring charges. They were charging a dead person for months for no reason on my mother's credit card! they will go after you, beware of this scam.. WORST Customer Service ever...

I landed on this website because of my concern for my elderly father (age 93) who continually expresses alarm and shows mental distress after reading the materials of this organisation. He is unable to meet all of his own expenses for the care he needs yet has sent somewhere close to $2000 to this organisation over the past year. He says, "I can't really afford this" but our country is in dire straits and I have to help". Most recently he donated $1000 which earned him membership in "The President's Circle" and a follow-up fundraising request with boxes to check for a $1000 minimum gift up to a $10000 gift so that he can remain in the President's Circle. I have long been concerned about the alarmist nature of the materials Judicial Watch sends and am disgusted to see the manipulative, fear-mongering practices aimed at members of the population who no longer have the cognitive acumen to make informed decisions. This should be STOPPED!

a quick perusal of these comments makes a great display of how liberals want to shut down anyone they disagree with, and love to make stuff up about preying on the elderly. They can't even solve a simple problem on their own- they solicit gov't to solve it for them. If you throw the mail in your recycle bin- problem solved. If your elderly relatives are receiving mail and writing checks based on what they read in the mailings, can't you ask them why they do that?
I first donated to Judicial Watch when i was sort of a left winger still, and the cottage industry of digging up dirt, which took almost no digging, on Bill Clinton's Arkansas, was just getting started. I have found them to be experts in navigating the legal channels where congress has almost made themselves untouchable- see current issue on latest hunter biden convolutions, and yes more hillary obfuscations. Its not that complicated- file Freedom of Information docs, and wait about a year while liberal judges block it until an honest judge grants it. Who could be against "freedom of information". Its a simple answer- those who use DC for self interest.
Another thing many of these comments show- conservatives favor honesty and truth, while liberals favor silencing sources of disagreement, and taking away their freedom to do what they do. Liberals have always criticized conservatives for being "boy scouts" but want to protect fake boy scout peter strozk. I would just add this- if Judicial Watch is too partisan for you and you want their 501C status pulled- why aren't you screeching about npr/pbs as well? I know, hypocrisy is something other people do, not you.
I have also asked JW to cut back on not only mailings, but cut back on projects so they can get the important ones done- if in fact money is a problem. I think thats why Larry Klayman separated from them. some lib thinks thats a red flag that he sued the Org he started. But thats what they do- they sue to make the wheels of Justice turn. In DC, there are just too many assigned to putting wrenches in the wheels so they can't turn. Notice how the liberal input here is --- complaint, and the conservative input is --- praise for respect for the rule of law, and appreciation of the tiny bit of real transparency that does sometimes occur. I have donated $10 to JW maybe 10 times over 30 years.

This Company is dedicated to helping weed out corruption in our country. We donate to its worthy cause and are impressed with the results Tom Fitton is able to achieve through his litigation.

I just received a survey from Judicial Watch entitled 2020 National Illegal Alien Election Impact Survey. Many of the questions imply that educating all children is not a good idea. For example, one question was "Do you believe that you and other taxpayers in your sate should be forced to foot the bill for educating illegal aliens?" As a retired teacher, counselor and administrator, I will answer the question "you bet." What kind of nincompoop would deny a child an education because of where they are from. Clearly the writer of that question must have slept through his/her American history classes. The education of immigrant children go back before the days of John Dewey. Clearly Judicial Watch is run by a bunch of ideologues with no common sense. I do appreciate the opportunity to express my opinion, however.

As an independent, I vote during my local, state and national elections. In voting for a specific candidate, I make every attempt to vote for the person who I believe is best qualified and representative of the district I am from.

That being said, I am also a Vietnam era veteran, who received a purple heart, bronze star, two army accommodation medals as well as the Vietnam service medals for the period in which I served in country. I did this in service to my country -- a task fulfilled in consideration for living in one of the greatest country on earth, with the greatest freedoms experienced by any human.

As I look back on the building blocks of our great country, where early politicians who were elected, served their country for a limited period of time, then returned to their community where they earned a living and lived under the rules and regulations written and passed during their years of service.

Much has changed between the formation of our great nation and today. Fast forward for 200 + years and today we have life-time politicians, who make a career out of getting reelected. As they rise in their tenure, stature and power, they somehow loose their perspective on their role within the halls of congress, whether it be in the House or Senate. Massive pension programs, separate health care, extended support staffs, and unlimited junkets to various parts of the world, in the name of fact gathering create an aura of self importance & superiority.

Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. They forget who they are and believe they are above the law. This occurs in both the Republican and Democratic parties.

I find Judicial Watch to be valuable source of the truth. And I believe this is extremely needed in today's fast pace, instant communications society.

I believe each elected and government appointed employee needs to be held accountable for their actions, while serving as our duly elected and appointment representative. After all, they are our representatives, paid by our taxes.

Judicial Watch provided a vital role in monitoring the behavior of all elected and government appointed employees. This is the least they can do for our great nation. Anything less would be a total failure.

Judicial Watch claims to be a non-partisan Watch-Dog group, yet they only go after liberal and progressive organizations and politicians. They are in fact a hard-right conservative organization that gets funds by scaring old people. I received a mailing from them today that looked like a Complaint in Federal District Court. They are just out to enrich themselves and should be stripped of their non-profit status.

They would get 5 if they spent more of their funding on their programs instead of funding the USPS. Looks to me like if you are a liberal democrat spitting venom then star one & if you are a coservative republican they go up on a pedestal with 5. While I lean towards the latter group wisdom & discernment, along with soberity & honesty get my 5.

While I think Judicial Watch needs to rein in their spending and make 80% of their donations go towards the important litigation they do, their work is crucial in uncovering factual documents so the American people can know the truth about what our politicians are doing/hiding. I know of no other organization that has been able to uncover so many documents that expose what politicians do. And I know that if a conservative politician breaks the law, they will use the Freedom of Information Act on them just as fervently to uncover truth.

I think the same person wrote several negative reviews. Liberals are always on the prowl to suppress the truth, and promote only their views, everyone else need not have an opinion. Liberals have been breaking laws, suppressing the truth, or flat out lying, and it must stop. They have the majority of news outlets and it's very difficult to get the actual truth anymore. Even when you use Google, Bing especially, it's ALL bias left wing BS LIES. Judicial Watch is the only charity other than St. Judes that I donate to, and will continue to donate to as long as liberals keep beating conservatives down. We have every right to our opinions, and every right to the truth. After reading the reviews I decided to write one of my own. I am sick and tired of Liberals lying through their teeth, disrespecting our country, or laws, and our right to the absolute truth. Immigration is a HUGE problem and IS costing taxpayers BILLIONS of dollars, and paying nothing in return. This is the truth, Judicial watch is informing people of the truth, and liberals suppressing the magnitude of this issue is a disservice to ACTUAL United States CITIZENS.

Judicial Watch was founded by extreme right-wing activist Larry Klayman, who appointed its current president. It is highly partisan and its endless litigation wastes taxpayer monies. By the way, Klayman is particularly famous for saying the following: "Mr. President, get up off your knees, put the Koran down, and come out with your hands up." That this group calls is self nonpartisan is laughable. That is has nonprofit status is inexcusable.

I continue to donate to JW because they are a voice of Truth. Some of these reviews are tainted by left trolls intent on scaring truth seekers off. I applaud the JW watch efforts to get at the truth and will actually increase my donation to JW significantly. I am amazed at how the truth or organizations such as JW can be targeted by left leaning organizations. JW is not about politics it is about finding the truth.

I read some of the negative reviews. I get lots of mail asking for money from lots of organizations. I called Judicial Watch and asked for them to limit mailings. They DID! I get their newsletters ONLY!!! They do a great job getting information using FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT. They can be trusted I truly believe! And I do my homework BEFORE I WRITE CHECKS!!!

This group has been harassing me for $ for over a year now. I have tried everything I can think of to get them to STOP THEIR MAILINGS but nothing has any effect. They are the most persistent of any of the hundreds of groups that send me unsolicited mail. I disagree with everything they do and have pointed out a lot of lies in their materials, yet even that does not stop them. Never give a penny to them or even go near them.

This is nothing but ultra-conservative politics. I was very disappointed. They send my elderly mother in a nursing home mail every week asking for money. She is not longer able to distinguish real business from junk mail. Good luck if yo go to their website and try to find a place to get yourself removed from their mailing lists. I don't know if it can be done other than to write them a letter and send it by USPS. Not sure that would even work. Not very transparent!

This organization is committed to transparency in government, and the rooting out of lies, corruption, and government waste. I applaud their efforts. We need more organizations like this to make Americans more aware and responsible for the government they have.

Judicial Watch is a world class award winning organization which has been highly successful in revealing massive corruption within US federal, state and local governments. Over 93 percent of their contributions are from individuals, meaning big government and big business are not paying Judicial Watch to protect them. Judicial Watch is protecting each and every American citizen against corrupt tyranny. As a conservative organization demanding our Constitution and laws be followed they have become a victim of viscous false reviews on this website.

No one is forced to donate any money to this organization because highly educated informed people are contributing to Judicial Watch so the uninformed don't have to donate. Regardless of who contributes Judicial Watch is protecting each individuals personal rights and doing an incredible job. Google them in the current news.

Looking at the reviews, JW is obviously a target of the extreme left. The JW literature is not full of lies as one reviewer claims. They seem currently to be focused on the president's over reach through executive actions to circumvent the congress' responsibility for enacting laws and his administrations refusal to enforce some laws that he doesn't agree with even though it is explicitly stated in the constitution (Article II, Section 3) that the president "shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed". In the past, JW has held major Democrat and Republican leaders accountable for their misuse of power.

Well, if exposing Hillary Clinton as the radical leftist that she is is a "far right agenda"...I'll take it. Remember Clinton, she as Scty of State, ignored the pleas for help at the Consulate in Benghazi where 4 Americans, including the ambassador, were killed. Then, along with Obama, shamelessly tried to blame it on a video rather than the terrorist attack that it was. Of course, Hillary's ultimate insult to the families of those killed and indeed all Americans, was the "what difference does it make" statement. I'd also like an expose of Eric Holder and the DOJ for the "Fast and Furious" fiasco where a US agent was killed. Oh, and a little more on the IRS targeting conservatives. The media assisted cover ups is persistent and pervasive. What I'd like to know is if JW is actually effective in exposing these travesties against the American people. If so, I'm on board.

This is a scam. They do in fact, prey on the elderly. Do not send money, nor let your loved ones be taken in, and taken advantage of, by this horrific "organization". WHY these thieves are not shut down is simply amazing. The elderly, on fixed incomes and vulnerable, are their targets. Have they no shame or conscience?

This group has been hounding my mother with unsolicited letters asking for money. She is 80 years old and has the beginnings of dementia and we just realized she has been sending them checks. I agree with the other reviewers that say they prey on the elderly after seeing their onslaught of mail to my mom. I have written to them and demanded that they remove her name from their contact list immediately. Sadly this is just one of many "organizations" that take advantage of those who are easily influenced.

Have followed this organization for four years and believe that it is trying to be very fair about getting the elections to be fair and honest. If one doesn't believe that there was some illegal voting performed in the last National general election, then that one hasnot read the newspapers with an unbiased eye. I believe that Mr. Thomas Fitton and the Judicial Watch Organization is trying to do a great service for the United States of America.

Tom Fitton is a public offense. This is a thinly veiled hate group that preys upon the elderly, low information people, and extreme right wing madness. They are aggressively fighting for voter suppression. This is not a charity, it is a sham. It brings down charity navigator that they are here. I answered that they have a little impact, but not in a positive way.

This organization is a SHAM! They prey on senile, elderly people and appeal to their fear. My mother was suffering from demential and received appeals from this organization about twice per month. We tried repeatedly to get them to take her off a list, but they did not respond. My brother, who lives in the DC area even checked out the address on record, and no such office existed. If this is a real organization, I would love to hear their explanation!

This group should not be tax exempt. The headline of their fundraising letter is "Stop Acorn and the Entire Corrupt Obama machine from stealing the 2012 Elections." They are not non-partisan. I see no action against Republicans on their web site. And receiving this letter in an election year when they have never solicited from me before is lobbying. They can speak but contributors don't get a tax break for them lobbying against poor people voting. I don't want to give them even one star but that's the only way I can file these comments!

How can this organization possibly be viewed as a "charity." I have received innumerable mailings from it, seeking funds to promote the far right agenda, and based on so many irresponsible falsehoods, that to categorize this group as "nonpartisan" is absolutely ridiculous.
