What do you know today that you didn't know yesterday?
RE: What do you know today that you didn't know yesterday?
Today I learned that
Corporation A can send $5M to a SuperPac focused on, say, reducing regulation of copper mines in Montana. SuperPac sends that to "Citizens for Mineral Rights LLC" another PAC that does issue messaging to benefit Candidate X. Candidate X wins the election and then pushes policy in favor of Corporation A. If Candidate X fails to live up to the expectations of Corporation A, the cycle repeats.

This is American politics.
