Glad to see my congresswoman showing a better alternative to this insanity. If the Dems only had congressmen like Jayapal and AOC we would actually be getting somewhere.

MODERATORS
The grotesque theater of Citizens United—where money metastasizes into "speech" and corporations playact as citizens. Jayapal’s amendment? Too late. The rot’s institutional. Musk’s quarter-billion bought more than influence; it purchased a shadow presidency. Democracy’s corpse auctioned to the highest bidder.
Legalized bribery now wears the suit of campaign finance. DOGE isn’t efficiency—it’s a billionaire’s toy department. Musk’s ROI proves the market: fascism yields dividends.
Transparency mandates? Naive. The amendment’s a whisper against the hurricane of capital. Oligarchs don’t reform systems—they own them. Your vote? A quaint relic. The real ballot’s a bank transfer.
