easy slogan for the next democratic presidential candidate is “i will reform the corrupt supreme court and repeal citizens united”
“When Citizens United was decided in 2010, billionaires had spent $18 million on the 2000 election, $13M 2004 and $16M in 2008. Then came the deluge. In 2012 it was $231M, and nearly doubled again in next three election cycles —to $682M in 2016, $1.2 billion in 2020 and $2.6 billion in 2024.” Gift:

Another federal court has rejected the administration’s attempt to detain people incommunicado. The Constitution does not disappear inside immigration detention. 👇
BREAKING: We won a court order requiring DHS to immediately restore meaningful access to lawyers for people detained at immigration detention centers in Minneapolis.
Access to a lawyer is not optional; it is a fundamental right. We will keep fighting to defend it.
