Supreme Court Opens the Door to Even More Dark Money in Politics

A recent Supreme Court ruling could reshape campaign spending by allowing political parties to spend more in direct coordination with their own candidates. Citizens United opened the door to unlimited independent political spending. This takes the influence of super PACs, dark money groups, and major donors one step further by making that spending more targeted, strategic, and connected to campaigns themselves. Is this free speech, or is it another step toward a government controlled by the highest bidder?
