Former CIA operations officer Valerie Plame Wilson has started a crowdfunding campaign to kick President Donald Trump off of Twitter with little support, The Washington Free Beacon reports.

Plame Wilson, who was a covert officer for the CIA until she was outed in a 2003 leak, announced the GoFundMe "Let's #BuyTwitter and #BanTrump" on Aug. 16 with an end goal of raising $1 billion to buy controlling shares of the site and ban Trump. So far she's only raised $3,000 in five days.
If the campaign fails to reach its goal, Plame Wilson said she would "explore options for buying a significant stake in the company and champion this proposal at the annual shareholder meeting."
Twitter currently holds a stock price of about 16 cents per share, with 731 million outstanding shares.
