The Supreme Court got it wrong with Citizens United when they opened the floodgates for dark money to infect our politics. It’s past time we correct it.
I take people at their actions and not their words. Jill stein and her ucsb prof running mate are pro Israel, anti environment, anti lgbtq rights, etc. RFK is the same. Both tickets have done everything in their power to achieve these ideals and that is simply a fact
AIPAC had to spend $8.5 million to get 51% of the vote to defeat Cori Bush. Billionaires buying elections is not what this country is supposed to be about. We have to end Citizens United and super PACs and move to public funding of elections.
