MONEY!
Current news on corruption of SCOTUS sheds new light on this landmark decision!
How it started,
“‘Dark money’ groups have poured billions into federal elections since the Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United decision”
““Dark money” groups have poured billions of dollars into influencing federal elections since the Supreme Court’s Citizens United v. FEC decision on Jan. 21, 2010, as elections become increasingly expensive and less transparent.”
We Have to Get Citizens United v FEC REVERSED!
Americans for Prosperity Foundation v. Rodriquez

“within 10 years every politician in this country will be a prostitute….”

Oligarch Overload – How Ultra-Rich Donors Have Flooded American Politics With Cash Since Citizens United
On January 21, 2010, Keith Olbermann predicted these headlines for the decade to come:
This F#$%ing Decade
The Terrible Tens are over. The Twenties may be even worse.
A decade of loss: What slipped away in America in the 2010s
The 2010s Were the End of Normal
The Decade of Disillusionment
Big Money and America’s Lost Decade
Keith asked then, “What are you going to do about it?”

Citizens United v.Federal Election Commission
He nailed it!
“… in short there are now no checks on the ability of corporations or unions or other giant aggregations of power to decide our elections … NONE! They can spend all of the money they want and if they can spend all of the money they want sooner rather than later they will implant the legislators of their choice in every office from president to head of the visiting nurse service and if senators and congressmen and governors and mayors and councilmen and everyone in between are entirely beholden to the corporations for election and re-election to office soon they will erase whatever checks there might still exist to just slow down the ability of corporations to decide the laws.“

“It is almost literally true any political science fiction nightmare you can now dream up, no matter whether you are a conservative or liberal, it is now LEGAL, because the people who can make it legal can now be entirely bought and sold, no actual citizens required in the campaign fundraising process, and the entirely bought and sold politicians can change any laws and any legal defense you can structure now can be undone by the politicians who will be bought and sold into office this November or two years from now and any legal defense which honest politicians can somehow wedge up against them this November or two years from now, that can be undone by the next, even larger set of politicians who will be bought and sold into office in 2014 or 2016 or 2018.”
… right now you can prostitute all the politicians some of the time and prostitute some of the politicians all the time but you cannot prostitute all the politicians all the time. Thanks to Chief Justice Roberts this will now change. Unless this near mortal blow is somehow undone within 10 years every politician in this country will be a prostitute.
“and now let’s contemplate what the perfectly symmetrical, money-driven world of that order might look like. Be prepared first laws criminalizing or least neutering unions. In today’s court decision they are the weaker of nonhuman sisters unfettered by the court so, as in ancient Rome or medieval England they will necessarily be strangled the stronger sibling, the corporations so that they pose no further threat to the corporations’ total control of our political system.”

Similarly, Desanctis’ argument falls apart when she tries to follow the claim to its logical end. Certainly, she contends, it should be legal for a Christian baker to refuse to bake a cake for a same-sex wedding, but that same baker should be required to bake a birthday cake for the same client.
But what if the birthday cake is for a child with same-sex parents? Under the draft executive order, a baker would be entirely within his right to refuse to bake that child’s cake because the child did not emerge from the particular type of union that the baker finds morally acceptable.
Refusing to make a wedding cake for a gay couple today is NO DIFFERENT than refusing to let a black person sit at your lunch counter in the 1960s!
To be clear: in 30 states, it is expressly legal to fire someone because they are transgender. In 28 states, an employee could marry their same-sex spouse on Sunday, then be fired on Monday for putting a wedding photo on their desk. These aren’t hypothetical dilemmas—real people lose their livelihood every year because a supervisor didn’t approve of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
