Montana — yes, deep red Montana — has a plan to effectively neuter Citizens United.
No Supreme Court ruling or constitutional amendment needed.

Wow did something happen in the US in January 2025?
Marc Elias with some good news:
“As of Tuesday night, Democrats have overperformed in 253 of 283 key elections since 2025, and Democratic turnout reached levels we have not seen in decades.”
Yay!
Now Senate can put hold on Mullin until Dems DHS demands are met
So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.
That's roughly $1 billion per day.
$41,666,667 per hour.
$11,574 per second.
People do not want this.
They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
😡😡😡😡
This isn’t about awards it’s about the idea that ordinary people, standing together, can push back against fear, defend their neighbors, and demand accountability from those in power. That’s how democratic values stay alive!

One little thing you can do if you’re feeling helpless tonight: throw a few bucks to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota. They’re reportedly stretched thin for obvious reasons and could use some help if you can offer it.

An office building lit up in the dark with a crowd of people holding signs in front of it.
HAPPENING NOW: A massive crowd is gathered in freezing temperatures outside ICE headquarters in DC to demand ICE OUT OF ALL COMMUNITIES NOW.
Holy shit. This speaks volumes about the midterms ahead.

🇺🇸 Temperatures in the upper-midwest were well below zero today, but the people in Minnesota braved the frigid cold, and showed up to fight for ALL OF US.

Screenshot of an X post by Acyn quoting Pete Buttigieg. The text says that in a country that amended its Constitution to ban alcohol and later reversed it, the U.S. could also pass an amendment clarifying that corporations are not people and money is not speech. Below the text is a photo of Buttigieg standing on a stage holding a microphone, speaking to an audience seated behind him.
Well said. And if the federal laws won't do this, the states, which grant corporate status, can and should.

Hey @schumer.senate.gov
Don’t you dare
Nothing to see here folks, just a sitting president investing in two companies whose merger he claims sole authority to approve or reject. Totally normal! 🙃
This is a huge win.
The First Amendment is clear: We the people have the right to speak without fear, document federal agents' activity in public, and hold those in power accountable.

Talked to a Somali man today who said his mosque last night was surrounded by neighbors ready to protect them against ICE if needed. Made me feel proud to live in this city.
DAN KOH: “$30 BILLION for 10,000 more ICE agents… that would cover all the ACA subsidies for a year. It would eliminate all medical debt. Trump is making it easier to kill people than keep people alive.”
