All Citizens United did was make it possible for oligarchs and corporations to be able to buy politicians their offices.
So now politicians don't give a fuck about their constituents.

T’wasn’t a flask of Old Crow, so t’wasn’t Hegseth’s kin.
In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in a piece of paper in a field of clover. The paper was a copy of Confederate Gen. Lee's invasion orders. The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam.
It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.
