> In fact, all the so-called justices who voted in favor of Citizens

> biased in favor of one side, always the corporate one. And we know

> confirmation hearings about their committed reactionary agenda.

> even shipping, if you have not requested a bumper sticker already.
> And here is the page where you can do that. Of course, if you can
