How to get rid of Citizens United?

We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment.

There’s a far simpler way. Let me explain: https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

A member of Congress could literally bet on their own vote and profit 10x. A White House aide could bet on a tariff decision before it’s announced. Theres ZERO oversight. This isn’t innovation, it’s legalized insider trading on democracy itself. Ban Kalshi politics

Kalshi Is a Corruption Time Bomb—and Congress Is Sitting on It
A platform that lets insiders (and legislators) gamble on their own behavior is a threat to democracy.

The Trump mafia junta is indistinguishable from the worst features of fascism. It’s devoid of any theme or principle except greed, revenge, corruption & White Christian racial domination.It revels in all forms of human wickedness, in its cruelty, aggression, disregard for decency & the rule of law.

Did Kristi and Kash get to Vegas in one of Kristi's Gulfstream G700 private jets taxpayers paid $200,000,000 for or did they use a $60,000,000 FBI private jet that taxpayers also paid for? These are incompetent fools only on the job for the attention and theft.

Musk turned on a feature on X that showed country of origin.

He disabled it a couple hours later when it was revealed how many MAGA accounts aren't in the U.S.

Foreign bot disinformation machines exposed.

Seems like Twitter could have done that feature 15 years ago & we wouldn't be here today.

Today it was revealed that the Coast Guard would no longer classify swastikas and nooses as hate symbols. Unacceptable. I just met with Admiral Lunday, and got his committment to publish a new policy. Hate has no place in our armed services.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Phang: It is a fundamental premise of the law that there is no requirement that a criminal defendant be forced to testify to explain away the government’s evidence. Hallagan went to law school and knows better, but she’s so stupid that she made that misstatement of the law to the grand jury.

Anti-abortion advocates are turning attention to altering training requirements for ob/gyn residency programs to make training in abortion care "opt-in" vs "opt-out."

As a result, residency programs may no longer provide training in abortion care or may stop providing abortion care completely
