Now add in the billions in political favors, narrative shaping, censorship, voter manipulation, and so on...

Also big-tech,
"We're totally impartial and are the paragon of temperance. Look at all these extreme right-wingers that we don't ban: Donald Drumpf, Ben Shapiro, Milo Yanonounonanonopolous... uh, that one blonde Canadian chick nobody remembers. See? If anything, we should clamp down even more on all this hate-speech. This lack of tolerance will not be tolerated!"

The numbers on the right represent donations to neocon traitors. If the GOP were a real America First party those would all be zero.

The problem is people like me who wouldn’t take donations are not interested in a profession such as politics.

Just vote against the incumbent. Always. Federal, State, County and City. Every time.
If we started to flush out the career politicians things might start to get a little better. At the very least it would make it more expensive for these companies and evil fecks like Soros to buy people.

I’d get into politics, but I don’t look or act the part at all. I’d tell my constituents who was trying to bribe me most recently and I’d call the donations bribes on national tv. I would never be allowed on live tv if at all. I don’t need millions or even a six figure salary to do my job either. I’d get shot, I’m too much of an abrasive ass to run for any kind of office.

It shows you how fucked politcs are where we show how much they donated and notice how biased they are instead of asking why they’re allowed to fucking donate to begin with. WhT a fucked situation we have

Don’t get me started on bribery-I mean, “lobbying”!
“I have a great idea! Let’s make bribery legal, but call it lobbying and call the payments ‘donations’!” Makes me sick.

Find out who they gave money too on the right and watch them like a fucking hawk.

Kill everyone that took donations on either aide. We might not agree with the left very often but I have a feeling we would have a general consensus on this issue

Companies give to representatives that do them favors. Profit is their bottom line.
[–] YouAreRetarded ago
Not surprising seeing as those are the politicians that will swiftly pass bills to protect these companies when it's revealed that they are illegally giving your data to the deep state.
[–] SkippyMcSkipperson ago
This should be illegal. Most of these institutions are defacto public utilities at this point. They shouldn't be allowed to donate to any political orgs.

Jews head every single one of those fucking companies
