From the party of law and order

Or was it the party of transparency? Or the party of patriotism? Democracy? The party of Dark Money? Oh, never mind:

[quote]Senate Republicans filibustered the popular DISCLOSE Act, which seeks to expose the super-wealthy donors who are spending unlimited amounts of undisclosed money to ensure that the U.S. government advances their interests at the expense of the vast majority.

...After all 49 of his GOP colleagues in attendance voted to prevent debate on the legislation endorsed by President Joe Biden, Whitehouse released a statement slamming right-wing lawmakers for fighting to preserve "dark money's poisonous influence over American democracy."

This legislation is designed to prevent the ability of the country to find out the shenanigans of the far left.

It's being called the silence free campaign speech act in my circles.

We already have strict campaign finance reporting laws on the books.

They wanna dox union members and members of the working class so they can sigg their antifa/blm/ radicals on people.

This is a no go.

@SteelHands Whatever the party tells you to help you sleep at night.

We just passed legislation here to get all those loud, crazy car sounds off the road - yay! Except we used it to silence protesters that weekend, which is why it was really resurrected.

This looks bad for them because it [i]is [/i]bad for them. Your contentions don't even make sense.
