Happy September and LABOR DAY! Remember, if you like having "weekends" and "days off", thank the Labor Movement. Also, remember to give what you can to your local, state and federal candidates as well as parties or special advocacy groups close to your heart. There's a lot more of us than the billionaires and corporations, but we do have to get around to kicking in a little to fund OUR people in opposition to THEIRS. Got $100 bucks to give? Use this silly little table below to allocate it!

Decent chance the code has been cracked for each state to bypass Citizens United. I guess enough people in both parties are convinced they would win fairer elections, or anyway there's some reason that bipartisan support is growing quickly.

#Watchdog groups had raised alarm about the lack of #transparency surrounding the most recent #Trump transition, noting that by not revealing who was contributing—& how much they had chipped in—it was nearly impossible for the public to know about #ConflictsOfInterest or #PayToPlay arrangements.

Montana Has an Ambitious Plan to End Dark Money in Elections
Fifteen years after a landmark Supreme Court case turbocharged corporate spending in the political process, a group hopes it may have a way to finally rein in some of the outsized influence of the ultrawealthy. The 2010 ruling on Citizens United v. FEC opened the floodgates of political spending in elections. Every year since then, untraceable financial political contributions…

Americans, myself included, regardless of stripe agree with you. #PewResearch confirms that view 👇
The only folks that disagree are the #billionaire class who influence/control most of our elected officials and deploy their money to keep voters distracted with #WedgePolitics
Publicly financing our elections and replacing/repealing #CitizensUnited is essential
With the level of support Pew reveals, a constitutional amendment seems possible

#Mainers in kayaks protest Chief Justice #JohnRoberts near his island home
by Stephen Betts, Midcoast Villager
July 19, 2025"#Kayakers who say they oppose the direction the U.S. Supreme Court has taken the country took to the water Saturday morning to protest near the seasonal home of Chief Justice John Roberts Jr.
"The flotilla launched its kayaks from the new public landing in Port Clyde and paddled a few hundred yards to Roberts’ home on Hupper Island.
"The chief justice and his wife Jane Roberts purchased the home in June 2006. He typically spends time at the seasonal home after the high court recesses for the summer. Their chief residence is in Chevy Chase, Maryland.
Signs voicing opposition to the #SupremeCourt’s rulings were brought in the kayaks, and others lined the waterfront."Signs referred to rulings that they said harm the #LBTQ community, the overturning of campaign spending limits for #corporations in the #CitizensUnited case in 2010, the overturning of a woman’s right to #abortion in 2022, and more recent rulings that grant the president immunity from actions taken while president.
"Organizer Susan MacNeil-Densmore said earlier this week she is affiliated with the organization #AudacityCAT (#CreativeActionTogether) which has been active locally working to resist #authoritarianism, but said the event was not really part of any specific organization."
