F*CK CITIZENS UNITED

Next time Dems are in power, we need to have a bill like this here.

📌 Australia’s Labor Party has proposed capping political donations at $20,000 per candidate to prevent billionaires from buying elections.

Jimmy Carter pardoned his brother Billy Carter who took over $200,000 from Libya as its foreign agent.

George H.W. Bush pardoned his son Neil Bush for his role in the S&L scandals of the 1980s.

Nobody thinks those pardons defined either presidency.

Joe Biden's pardon of Hunter Biden won't either.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.

They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.

The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

Just so we’re clear -
Any party telling you who you can love, what gender you are, which medicine you can take, which books you can read, which history you can learn, what prayers you should pray and what you can and cannot do with your own body, doesn’t give a fuck about freedom.

Republicans want to cut $30 billion from SNAP, because nothing says “save the children” like starving them.

Pay attention to Oklahoma.

Bibles in classrooms isn't the big story.

The same legal teams behind the seeding of Dobbs are driving a case to create religious schools fully funded by the public & they've already petitioned the Supreme Court.

Understandably, everyone was focused on the election.

So the richest man in the world spent $130 million to elect Donald Trump.

Now he's being put in charge of a "government efficiency" agency while controlling corporations with billions in government contracts that are also under federal investigations.

See how this works?
