A Democrat, Siding With the G.O.P., Is Removing Limits on Political Cash at ‘Breathtaking’ Speed

The Federal Election Commission has long done little more than reach deadlock, but an ascendant bloc of three Republicans and one Democrat has begun to unravel longstanding restraints.


Just what our politics need: More corrupt money.

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/10/us/politics/fec...

What effing Democrat joined the three Republicans and how much did he get paid?

In a series of recent decisions that are remaking the landscape of money in American politics, an ascendant new bloc of three Republicans and one Democrat is voting together to roll back limits on how politicians, political parties and super PACs raise and spend money.

Reform groups are aghast at what they see as the swift unraveling of longstanding restraints. Conservatives who for years have dreamed of loosening restrictions are delighted, even though many of the rulings were sought by one of the Democratic Party’s most prominent attorneys, Marc Elias, who was seeking political advantage and clarity for his clients.
