Smart. Even if there's nothing the Government and Democrats can legally do to stop these individuals and oil corporations from donating to Trumps re-election, within egregiously corrupt and simple ways currently allowed by the "corporations are people my friend" laws, it's a shot across the bow some might think twice about before propping up the Orange Hitler.

GenosseFlosse ,

I think the opposite will happen. People in power will read it to see who they can bribe, what it will cost and how much they can get.

doingthestuff , in Speaker Mike Johnson booed at Columbia University as he calls for president to quit

America is politically divided. More news at 11.

Columbia students: protesting peacefully and testing boundaries, exercising free speech

Columbia President: Let’s call NYPD and arrest them all

Columbia Staff: wtf?

Mike Johnson: How can I make this worse? I know, force the president of the school to resign for not doing enough, and call in the National Guard

And fuck all those ads I endured to read that.

protesting peacefully and testing boundaries, exercising free speech

Doesn't sound like that on the ground:

And I'm sure plenty (more) of bad actors have slipped in since. It's not as cut-and-dried and lemmy is making it out.

pennomi ,

Ehhh, that article sounds pretty biased. Yes, Jewish students don’t deserve to be persecuted, and yes, people who break the law should be arrested, but that’s true everywhere. Everything else in the article is just fearmongering.

eran_morad , in CIA says whistleblower allegation touted by GOP in Joe Biden impeachment probe is 'false'

No fucking shit

cabron_offsets , in Donald Trump is "electoral poison"—former GOP strategist

Good, may he kill the republican party, the worthless traitor filth.

lettruthout , in Donald Trump is "electoral poison"—former GOP strategist

They're only just now figuring this out? In CA the GOP party is toxic. Only very limited areas vote for them in any meaningful way any more. No GOP candidate has held a state-wide office for years.

My hope is that this will become a national trend.

Duh.

He doesn’t read them, he just forwards them on to Mister Bone Saw for payment as per.
