It would be interesting to see someone challenge this through reference to Citizens United. If people can pool their funds to ~~bribe~~ donate to politicians and have it count as speech, it sure as shit seems like bail funds should count as protected as well. I know that the supreme court doesn't give a shit about precedent or consistency, but it would make for a good public spectacle to force them to say that (again).
