Summary
House Democrats, led by Rep. Pramila Jayapal, introduced the We the People Amendment to overturn Citizens United, aiming to curb corporate influence in elections.
The constitutional amendment asserts that constitutional rights apply only to individuals, not corporations, and mandates full disclosure of political contributions.
Jayapal cited Elon Musk’s massive campaign spending and subsequent financial gains as proof of the ruling’s harm.
Advocacy groups praised the move, calling it necessary to combat corporate power and dark money in politics, but Republicans have not backed the proposal.
Their argument to the American people doesn’t matter. Millions of Americans are still happy with what’s happening and we have a government that will use violence to get what it wants. We need a coalition of countries to step on America’s dick and grind it into the ground. We deserve it for the shit we’ve done around the world.
Millions of Americans are wrong. What’s your plan for that? Violence? Reeducation camps for shitbags? Conservatives are everywhere, and they’re all salivating to take advantage of the chaos created by the fall of Rome. If you think getting our collective dick stepped on is going to result in a better tomorrow, you need to pick up a history book.
If you think it hasn’t been collective chaos for black people for 400 years pick up a history book and think about the people exploited so you can live in Rome in comfort.
For about 50 years it was consistently getting better until just now. And you act like that counts for nothing.
Yeah, better from the slavery days of my great great grandfather. There aren’t running jokes about the frequent imprisonment and abuse and death of white people by authorities because it’s not something you all had to fear. You treated us worse than dogs, then, slowly, we got more rights than animals only to be released into a modified cage. So fuck better. We said equality.
