Paul Krugman published a graph showing impact of Citizens United. Before Citizens United, billionaire campaign contributions were negligible. Since, they increased 1700 times.
What do they want?
Get richer. The fortunes that put Bill Gates and Warren Buffett at the top of the list 20 years ago are small potatoes compared to today's top billionaires.
To control information. Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion. Twenty years ago no one had that much wealth. Ellison bought Paramount and Censored Bull Shit and wants to add CNN.

Citizens United is really the first big step. Democrats have to build a coalition big enough to take back Congress and end Citizens United.

If Congress does that can the supreme Court overrule it?

A 7 year old boy is in South Carolina hospital with measles encephalitis. He cannot walk, talk, or feed himself. He was not vaccinated. His antivaxxer mother said she would do it over again because she has seen "with her own eyes" the "harm" from vaccines. And if her son is permanently paralyzed that is part of God's plan.

The Democrats have been hiding the truth about the Epstein files. You think they're going to overturn Citizens United? They are addicted to the money, like the Republicans.

We need new Democrats, or at least new dem leadership.

If Democrats aren't willing to do that then they won't win anymore.

The only thing Drumpf ever said that I agree with is “drain the motherfucking swamp!”

The party is rotten to its core. It can't and won't exist without taking corporate PAC money. Even AOC is starting to sound like the typical corporate Democrat.

Trump always ran on generic populist claptrap everyone could in theory agree on. He just never doesn’t lie.

I heard him called a "slopulist" recently and I really hope that sticks.

Someone made a funny video earlier that I saw. No way we're going to vote at the polls to rid ourselves of the child raping and eating class of our society. Both parties are complicit in the cover up.
