The American people end up paying the price for the corrupt lawmakers who are more focused on serving corporate special interests, lobbyists, and their stock portfolios than their constituents.

We need a full-on ban on corporate PAC money. I’m one of six U.S. Senators who has never taken corporate PAC checks. Six out of 100. The middle class doesn’t have a lobbyist. They don’t have a super PAC. They don’t have a corporate PAC. But they should have the Democratic Party.

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.

The fight for democracy is the fight of our generation. It may not be the battle we wanted, but it is the one we face. The state of our democracy and the future of our country depends on our willingness to take risks, ignore the naysayers, weather setbacks and fight fiercely for democracy.
