Stop like articles about overturning Citizens United and join a movement to actually do it. The First essay on how we do this is out - The American Origin Story and its Blueprint of Hope => open.substack.com/pub/shift2050/… Not a return to the past—but a return to the founding principle that democracy isn’t built on permission. It’s built on participation, defiance, and the collective will to move forward when the system stands still. On the eve of our nation’s 250th anniversary, it’s worth remembering that the Constitution wasn’t born through institutional approval. It was born through bold action by citizens who recognized that the rules had to change—and were willing to change them. This essay is the first in a series exploring how we can overturn Citizens United by drawing from that same founding spirit. We’ve done this before. We can do it again. Join, act, and share.

Cast your vote here -- Most Americans — across political lines — want to get rid of Citizens United and take corporate and elite money out of our elections 👉 shift2050.substack.com/p/an-open-lett… … This is just one signal. But if enough people respond, it might become something more.

❗“𝙒𝙝𝙮 𝙞𝙨𝙣’𝙩 𝙎𝙤𝙧𝙤𝙨 𝙗𝙖𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙙 𝙛𝙧𝙤𝙢 𝘼𝙢𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙖?” This question pops up in my comments a lot. The answer is simple: Republicans and Democrats work with him. The references I found were not from some random academic journal. Over 30 direct mentions of Soros or his NGOs appeared in the Journal of Democracy. It's the flagship journal of the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), the same organization featured prominently in that widely circulated "Uniparty NGO" network diagrams below. NED is a U.S. government-funded outfit. It includes currently sitting members of Congress on its board... from both parties, not just former officials. Soros’s involvement is deep. He has co-chaired NED conferences abroad and his Open Society NGOs regularly partner with NED operations, especially in countries undergoing "transitions" (read: regime change or soft power penetration). Together, Soros and US-backed NGOs have shaped funding pipelines, media narratives, and even foreign electoral strategies. So when people ask, "Why isn’t Soros banned?" ... they need to understand: he's not an outsider. He's part of our government. The Uniparty protects and partners with him, because he helps carry out a shared foreign policy vision... the same one that labels President Trump as a threat to democracy. NED members include: 🟣 Victoria Nuland – Director of the National Endowment for Democracy; Acting United States Deputy Secretary of State under Biden (served in both parties). 🔵 Karen Bass – Vice Chair of the National Endowment for Democracy; former U.S. Representative and current Mayor of Los Angeles (Democrat). 🔴 Todd Young – Honorary at the National Endowment for Democracy; U.S. Senator from Indiana (Republican). 🔴 Elise Stefanik – Director at the National Endowment for Democracy; U.S. Representative from New York and House GOP Conference Chair (Republican). 🔴 Mel Martinez – Director at the National Endowment for Democracy; former U.S. Senator from Florida (Republican). 🔴 Steve Biegun – Director at the National Endowment for Democracy; former U.S. Deputy Secretary of State (Republican). 🔴 Todd Young – Honorary at the National Endowment for Democracy; US Senator from Indiana (Republican).

End Citizens United
End Citizens United@StopBigMoney·
The disastrous Citizens United decision legitimized corruption and put our democracy on sale to the highest bidder. We need campaign finance reform to ensure the voices of the people aren't drowned out by the money of big corporations and greedy oligarchs. #EndCitizensUnited

This looney-tunes right-wing group’s complaint against Roberts was an effort to ferret out my correspondence on judicial ethics matters with the Judicial Conference. dailykos.com/stories/2025/5…

100 million $$$ spent on a campaign for a state Supreme Court is utterly ridiculous. We need campaign finance reform now. #EndCitizensUnited
