This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics.
It is the root of our dysfunction.

It’s time for the anti-oligarch party. No dark money, no billionaire influence. Platform: tax the rich and use the revenue for universal healthcare. Wholesale campaign finance reform. Reverse Citizens United day 1 of the supermajority. The largest voting block in the United States is NONVOTERS!

He is a computer safety researcher.
And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

Following up on this. This remains a ‘cave is minutes or hours away’ situation. If you want to impact how this plays out you need to contact senators literally now. I want to add additional points of context. What I’m relaying is what I’ve picked up from highly reliable sources.
Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Look what we've become
ICE stalked a mother into her children’s school while she was with her children. As they assaulted and kidnapped her they attacked her son, who tried to aid his mom. They hauled the boy into a stairwell, closed the door, and covered the window to hide whatever they did to him next.

Nonprofits need support now more than ever. Federal grants have dried up, large foundations have narrowed their scope, and it’s tougher than ever for small organizations to keep the lights on. Once these great programs are lost, they are gone forever. Please consider giving if you have the means.
