Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, 558 U.S. 310 (2010), was a landmark decision of the Supreme Court of the United States concerning the relationship between campaign finance and free speech. It was argued in 2009 and decided in 2010. The court held that the free speech clause of the First Amendment prohibits the government from restricting independent expenditures for political campaigns by corporations, including nonprofit corporations, labor unions, and other associations.
Something tells me this is not really about Citizen United, but rather some other ominous change they want to add to constitutional amendment. I know that Liberals and Libertatians are extremely polarised against Citizens United, and using it as ane excuse is a great way to keep them in blind rage while push through something else.
I think its because Trump is out fundraising them bigtime, so now this law isnt beneficial to the swamp.
They seriously have no principles or care for the wider consequences of ANYTHING as long as it helps them RIGHT NOW.
You’re probably right and I’m sure in their minds they just think they change it again when it will benefit them more at another time to reverse it. They always have an ulterior motive to whatever they’re doing. Evil swine the lot of them!
Makes sense.
