Rolling Stone excerpt about Montanaโ€™s ballot initiative to combat Citizens United

Rolling Stone excerpt about Montanaโ€™s ballot initiative to combat Citizens United

This is the best political news Iโ€™ve seen in a very long time โ€” so please pass it on๐Ÿ‘‡

Each state can limit Citizens United in their own state & they donโ€™t have to wait for other states to do it.

Still No Kings: Millions to Protest Trump On Saturday A coalition of civil rights groups expects the turnout on Oct. 18 will be even bigger than the first nationwide protest held in June, which by some counts was the largest in U.S. history.

Millions of people will take to the streets again this Saturday to protest the autocratic regime of President Donald Trump. @whitneycwimbish.bsky.social talked to organizers of the Oct. 18 No Kings protests, which are expected to be bigger than the first set in June.
