Vote contradicts: statement_vs_disclosure
Castro advocates for privacy and warns against the weaponization of personal data, yet he published the names and employers of 44 private citizens who donated to a political opponent — an act widely condemned as doxxing. The House GOP campaign arm and even Democratic strategists criticized the post as inappropriate intimidation of private citizens exercising their First Amendment rights.

What this view assembles

  • Promises & violations — every documented commitment + each documented break, with primary sources.
  • Contradiction pairs — fact-against-fact entries from the contradictions ledger; the "said" appears in its year, the "did" appears in its year.
  • Vote-based analyses — for elected officials, every documented case where a vote diverged from a stated commitment.
  • Entity events — major dated events recorded against the entity (acquisitions, indictments, appointments, etc.).

This view DOES NOT auto-detect new drift candidates. It surfaces records that are already on file. If you spot an undocumented inversion, the curator workflow (admin) is where to add it.
