Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.
It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history.
It corrupts our political system every day.

I'm glad she was able to come in to her own here. I do think Canada is one of the better places to be a woman. My deepest condolences.

24.10.2025 13:39 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Ya, the books I want are published through Amazon, so no matter what, they would be coming from Amazon.

We're not even shopping American, let alone Amazon. If there was another way, I would've found it. But both would been from Amazon anyway.
