Citizens United opened the door to allowing corporations to contribute to campaigns while enjoying the disclosure protections similar to those afforded to private citizens. How do we undo that?
It will require Congress to pass a law to undo that problem. If we can make a democratic sweep of the 2028 elections, we can make that happen. Right now, as angry as most of the country is with the GOP, it's a good possibility.
Thank you for this history lesson that highlighted reformers who took on enablers of scandal and corruption. I admire your belief that the Trump administration and his uber-wealthy supporters would collapse with just laws and dedicated pursuers. Alas, I believe that gang has covered themselves in armor of untouchability. They sneer at your efforts to right our republic. You note the post-Watergate and post Gilded Age eras as signs of hope. Regrettably, our current admiinistration has managed to hoodwink his own party, or pound them into silence. In moments of despair though, I learn about your reformers and I have hope. Pride. Admiration for your efforts to oust this administration and return our country to one praise worthy. May it happen in my lifetime. Quickly, I am 87.
I hope lawyers are prepping all the indictment materials to file against Trump, his family, and anyone associated with profiting off taxpayers as soon as possible. The corruption and decisions made by the Trump Administration and his coconspirators has caused enormous damage and harms to our once loved nation. It’s revealed the waste, fraud, and abuses perpetration by the wealthy class where money has paid the way to no accountability of their actions. It’s time! Reveal the truth, facts, evidence, and change course with moral and ethical integrity please. 🙏🏼
I support all ethical efforts to expose and prosecute the criminal administration that is destroying our democracy. For truth and justice to prevail, every American must wake up, speak up and stand up.
It is only in answering our era's need to make our own voices heard in holding accountable every level of anti-democracy plundering represented by the current Administration's starkly unethical self-aggrandiizement that we all will be defined.
Let it be the fearless generation that spoke up, and saved the lighthouse that is U.S. democracy.

Excellent analysis by CLC. I am hopeful that the anti-corruption efforts will bear fruit. Keep up the good work!
We need to educate the children!
