The USA is what it has always been and was built from the beginning to be, but many generations of the people have fought to expand the protections and liberties promised in the Constitution (& Declaration of Independence.) It is our turn.

The Supreme Court created Super Citizens in 2010. The government has been serving them exclusively since then.

The Supreme Court voided our constitutionally guaranteed democratic republic on July 1, 2024 replacing it with serial authoritarianism.

I did not consent to this form of government.

It would definitely be a step in the right direction.

All states need to implement the Montana Plan that bypasses Citizens United to some extent.

Montana plan:
Corporate charters delineate the powers a state grants a company--the power to do business, not the power to influence elections.

More BS deflection.

The NJ & VA governors were not running against a lifelong Democrat, and they were both endorsed by the DNC.

Mamdani was NOT endorsed by the DNC, nor Obama, as you claimed.

“In predominantly Black precincts, voters overwhelmingly favored Mamdani.” -Guardian

Where the vote for Mamdani was strongest in New York City

Mamdani performed well citywide, drawing support from a wide range of racial, ethnic, and economic groups

Furthermore, Mamdani performed well with Black New Yorkers, garnering well over 50% according to exit polls.

I understand the desire to tamp down the enthusiasm for Mamdani’s victory, but I do not appreciated being accused of lying by someone disseminating misinformation.

adriennedickinson.bsky.social @adriennedickinson.bsky.social · 2h

Martin endorsed him, the DNC never did. Schumer never did. Obama never did. Jeffries did not endorse Mamdani until October 24. The Kamala Harris endorsement was anything but glowing in late September. Big money Dems largely did not support him.

Your accusation is false.

And if they could have combined for 50% Cuomo would have won because the decrepit sac of orange slime directed the hive mind MAGAtBrain to vote for him.

adriennedickinson.bsky.social @adriennedickinson.bsky.social · 2h

No, I disagree with your characterization of Mamdani’s accomplishment. He not only defeated the other candidates, he beat both the Dem & GOP establishments which actively came together to attempt to defeat him.

Dems voted with Republicans for Cuomo to make it as close as it was.

…to include 1A rights.

While corporations & groups include citizens, they also can include noncitizens.

The ruling ended all limits on corporation & group political spending, with the exception of direct donations to candidates.

The net effect is that elected officials serve the Super Citizenry

SCOTUS 2010 Citizens United v FEC ruling created the Super Citizenry which is not limited to United States citizens.

It interpreted that $$$ = speech & that corporations & other groups have the same free speech rights as citizens, including political contributions, extending “corporate personhood”…

Powerful reflections from the Pope and this messaging - in English - against the Trump regime is going to reverberate in the Catholic communities all across America and around the world.

“How did you receive the foreigner? And did you receive him and welcome him or not?”

Pope Leo XIV challenges us to reflect on the moral cost of policies that target deeply-root immigrants and families.

We disagree.

Denigrating what Mamdani accomplished over the last 10 months makes my point.

Who else could have done it? Whoever you come up with, give them a call and ask them why they didn’t.

Mamdani saw an opportunity, made a plan and executed it brilliantly.

I agree, but the net effect of his agenda must be positive and be apparent to the electorate.

The obscenely wealthy Citizens United global Super Citizenry will do all they can to mire him in controversy for as much of his term as possible.

The only challenge he will have is the wealthy and powerful trying to sabotage everything he does.

They are going to make it their life's mission so they can then say, “See? We told you socialism doesn’t work."

Everything else is just putting good people and advisors in place.
