The Citizens United decision has corrupted our government and is destroying our democracy. Here's a way to get rid of it. robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get...
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.

The New Deal wasn’t built on a promise that there would be “no ceiling” for the richest Americans.

Quite the opposite, in fact. FDR knew its politics could only work if he singled out the rich as villains and knew that its policies could only work if the rich paid their fair share in taxes.

This Townsend's warbler is making himself right at home in my bougainvillea. Do you think birds named after 19th century naturalists are like, 'you don't own me!'?

It would be like me pulling up the first rainbow trout anyone had laid eyes on and declaring it Haddad's trout.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.

If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.

It’s that simple.

We cannot let this be normal. A sitting United States President has called for ‘death’ to sitting Members of Congress.

Those who he targets — veterans, intelligence community, federal workers — must stand up and fight.

Millions of workers are toiling away from their families this holiday weekend.

So thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail.

Pay all workers a living wage.

They preach “life” and “Christian values,” then turn their backs on actual people.

This administration has made cruelty the norm, from children to trans folks to immigrants.

We deserve better than this.

As Pete Hegseth denies the cold-blooded murder of survivors on the U.S. boat attack in the Caribbean (aka war crimes), remember that this is the same guy who initially lied and said he didn't share United States attack plans with a journalist in a Signal group chat.
