@JRepin The right is flush with cash from all these billionaire funded foundations. They mount such coordinated campaigns for their causes because they have that money. The tax code is the biggest enabler of the right’s rise. If the left ever gets a majority again, they need to remove tax loopholes for “charitable donations” to thinly veiled political organizations. It would definitely slow the influx of money.
