This is the best political news I’ve seen in a very long time — so please pass it on👇

Each state can limit Citizens United in their own state & they don’t have to wait for other states to do it.

And not an orginal thought. I must have heard this 100 times on Saturday.
She's stupid and uncreative.

👀 someone calling out big law firm complicity and cowardice

Sign reading BIG LAW LITTLE BALLS, and then listing a bunch of lil ball'd firms:

A&O Shearman
Cadwalder, Wickersham
Kirkland & Ellis
Latham & Watkins
Milbank
Paul, Weiss
Simpson Thatcher
Skadden, Arpa
Willkie Farr

Then the sign ends with a Trump quote that should make these firms put their heads in the proverbial bag:

"They gave me a lot of money considering they did nothing wrong"

Never has there been a secret policy from Biden to add Undocumented immigrants to the ACA, Medicaid, or Medicare. These are Republican lies. This shutdown is because Repugs do not want to extend the enhanced subsidy raising premiums on some of the most vulnerable Americans.
DON'T BUY INTO THEIR LIES
