Supreme Court Campaign Finance Ruling Removes All Federal Spending Limits

Trump Loses on Birthright Citizenship as America’s 250th Celebrations Flop
What was said
"This basically took Citizens United and expanded it to the one important entity that didn't have the ability to funnel dark money into elections: political parties themselves."
The Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling effectively eliminated the last remaining federal limits on campaign coordination spending, extending Citizens United's dark money provisions to political parties. Tarlov characterizes this as a disaster that completes the transformation of American elections into unlimited cash competitions. Federal races now routinely cost $10 to $20 billion per cycle.
