That is true. I say this because there is money that flows in through intermediaries(though still illegal, undoubtedly happens), but I also incorrectly conflated monetary support for foreign interests with money from foreign entities - my apology.

I voted third party for my congressional rep. I have the privilege of living in a solid blue district and I did it is a protest, but also because I like the candidate more than the blue candidate. I voted for my favored candidate in the primary, but she lost to a heavily AIPAC funded candidate. I disagree with Israel's actions and the amount of foreign money in domestic elections. I've told very few people this, whether in person or online - more than anything I want it to represent statistical dissent. I would never consider my vote if there were an even remote possibility of the right winger taking the seat.

No, that was some guy running for, I think, NY governor, but not actually running - he just wanted to use his platform to bring light to the issue of rent prices. --I had to google It while typing this out - Jimmy McMillan.

Gwynne runs the show at SpaceX, and frankly, she's fucking awesome at her job. The CEO is a blowhard, but Gwynne is calling the shots day to day.

TIL never trust a work van hauling a ladder that's never been used.

Conservatives think of women's sports as a pillow fight at a sleepover. Any real athletics is too masculine for them.
