  1. Let’s just fix it completely.
    – Subverting the free speech of millions of Americans sounds treasonous.
    – Interfering with the free elections of our leaders sounds treasonous.

  2. My ex favorite Congressman, Jim Jordan, took $10,000 reported so far this cycle, from google. He said he was happy to let them express their 1st Amendment right.

    I wrote him and asked if he would feel that way if NAMLA or Planned Parenthood kicked in 10Gs. Never got an answer.

    Which is the same answer as why there’s no term limits despite overwhelming public support.
