“When Citizens United was decided in 2010, billionaires had spent $18 million on the 2000 election, $13M 2004 and $16M in 2008. Then came the deluge. In 2012 it was $231M, and nearly doubled again in next three election cycles —to $682M in 2016, $1.2 billion in 2020 and $2.6 billion in 2024.” Gift:

For other politicians, sharing something so racist would be treated as a career ending scandal even if they quickly apologized and claimed to have not watched the video before sharing. Trump hasn't done that, the Times invents out of whole cloth the idea that he might have made an innocent mistake

This cannot be something a civilian law enforcement agent is allowed to wear in the US — and an agency that has a culture that tolerates this cannot be saved.
