The top 7 donors in the 2024 election — all GOP — gave a combined $1B to buy Trump a second term.
It's a gigantic amount of money in total — but it's just pocket change to them.
We must get Big Money out of politics.
No one from either party should be able to buy an election.

UPCR measurements during AKI may lack accuracy due to reduced urine creatinine in the denominator. But are UPCRs measured during AKI hospitalizations still useful? #nephrology #nephsky #kidney #upcr #acutekidneyinjury
Usefulness of UPCR Measurements During AKI | Docwire News
Researchers assessed whether changes in UPCR during severe AKI episodes are associated with how serum creatinine levels change at the time of sample collection for UPCR estimation.

Thanks to the Democrats of Rossmoor for such a warm welcome as I kicked off my campaign to be CA’s next governor.
There were questions about both Trump & our cost of living crisis. Our next gov will have to tackle both: standing up to Trump when he hurts Californians, AND addressing high costs.
