Hawaii enacted a law that could neuter Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live.

Trump adm approved it despite several in that dept resigning over the approval. Then CA AG Bonta caved to pressure from Ellison and Newsom and his own reelection ambition. He was the main plaintiff so the other AG's had a weaker case without him

I've read some articles (links on Norm Eisen's site) and acc to sources, Bonta caved from the pressure Newsom, Becerra and the LA Mayor were putting on him. That's not to excuse him, he foldfolded under Ellison unlikely threat to leave CA, plus he's up for reelection. The other AG's were pissed

It will be a sham because the board of directors, of which Ellison is a member, appoints this editorial board. Norm Eisen on here has a good link to an article about how these editorial boards are a sham

This is just AWFUL. I cannot understand why any Democratic State AG would agree to this. Just terrible www.niemanlab.org/2026/09/davi...

David Ellison will get control of CNN after all (and don’t pretend an “independent editorial board” will mean otherwise)
In exchange for dropping their lawsuit against Paramount's acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, state AGs have negotiated "independent" oversight of CNN. You shouldn't expect much oversight.

Gavin Newsom just killed any chance of becoming president. He caved on a critical issue effecting the whole nation. Ellison may move Paramount out of California anyway & he is definitely going to cut it in half.

FUCKERberg knows damn well a $50B+ AI data center isn’t some science-fair experiment. 🤬 Yet Meta reportedly used a 1980s research tax credit to avoid $3.9 BILLION in taxes in 2025.🖕 That’s not innovation. That’s corporate tax gaming—dressed up as AI. FUK FUCKERberg!🤬🖕🇨🇦

Disagree with starting with children. They already have a program: CHIPS. Start with adults who are the without healthcare who pay taxes and/or high premiums. My sister was laid off, couldn't afford COBRA and then got cancer. No spouse so no option to be covered there. Try getting ins with a ca dx.

At an invitation-only gathering in Italy, white supremacists mapped out strategies to target rural America while local press coverage vanishes www.confrontthehate.com/p/white-nati...
As economic pressures gut local newsrooms across the country, white nationalist figures see an untapped opening: stepping into media deserts where there are few journalists left to sound the alarm.

“Local media has been dying all over America, which means that there’s essentially no real way to hold local governments accountable—and they can do whatever they want,” Kevin DeAnna told an invitation-only gathering of approximately 50 white nationalists in Rome.

Breaking into a broad smile, he excitedly added: “You should be fantasizing about this. This is a good thing.”
