Billionaire families have spent $1.7 BILLION on the 2026 midterms so far — a 5,200% increase since the 2010 midterms. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day. Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.

If increasing our Canadian diesel imports by just 4% would give us exactly the same amt… why would Trump buy fm Russia? Could it be that Canadians wouldn’t let him skim and Putin would? Could that be it? Asking for those of us not brain-dead.

My Trump ACA pre-election bribe came! $500 because "you have paid into this flawed system, but...do not receive taxpayer subsidies". Seriously? TRUMP ended the credits. DJT will love that this covers donations I've made to Abdul El Sayed & Will Lawrence for M4All & maybe a tank of gas.😅
