Not only is this process in the constitution, but Dems have done it to every Republican president since the 80s

Exactly - the Dems have done it. The DNC version of your constitution has "DNC does what it wants, RNC lies back and takes it"

Thank you. I was about to bring that up. Larry Elder was going through all the presidential objections democrats made.

Mind linking that video if possible? I tried looking for said video after reading your comment, but ended up short.

Our bank is one of those companies. Switching our accounts to a credit union tomorrow.

Every one of those banks is a globalist shill. I was going to say that these donations aren't going to matter much, but you shouldn't be banking with people who are promoting unlimited mass migration in order to destroy your wages, and rob you of savings with inflation.

I think the funnier one is that most of the reactions I have heard from people is "Great, now I know who to back because they arent a paid corporate stooge."

It may well end up being a case of "Task failed successfully."

Absolutely. The fact that you're trying to claim moral high ground because you're not longer bribing people is just a horribly ignorant take.

The newly enshrined corporatist state will now remove funding from any populist politician who threatens to oppose their meteoric ascension.

Good, the elites need to be radicalized.

While denying funding to non-Globalist entities is a goal, these particular examples are not it. Most of those donations are under $5000. That's barely enough for a senator to say "thx" via text. They won't even notice the $1000 donation vanishing.

I imagine these tiny donations mirror a withdrawal of far greater amounts behind the scenes. These public bits are a sort of proxy indicator, basically a warning to others who might stray from the new orthodoxy.

This is a shot across the bow. They are not immune from bankers simply removing their ability to access money. Every politician understands the threat, or at least the competent ones. Are any of them competent? Fuck, maybe they won't notice.

Honestly, this is just a stunt. It's Bank of America removing donations publicly. That's a globalist financial organization with John Kerry on one of it's board of directors. These donations mean nothing. The money going through back channels is what matters, and if they were funding these politicians, they'd just call.

$5000 is the maximum legal donation anyone can make directly to a candidate. FEC guidelines

Donations over the limit are typically funneled through the national committee, meaning the transfers aren't readily traceable between donor and candidate.

Only a matter of time before banks stop processing your donation to Republicans

Tbh, I don't know why you'd donate to 99% of current republicans anyway. It seems like most of the neocons love putting up the front of caring and fighting but they end up just wanting the same things as most democrats. Still this is obviously fucked up.

"Rule of Law" has become a canard meaning "the way we want things to go" or "rule of we, but not thee"...look at the rider placed into the EU budget and their picking a fight with Poland and Hungry over their dissent.

You know, if Republicans weren’t pure corporate shills, maybe they would start enacting more pro-consumer regulations like implementing the same chemical bans as the EU as retribution. Imagine the millions/billions of dollars it would cost companies to update their production chains! I’m tired of the over-processed shit we get in America.

This is why I have begun buying raw ingredients and making my own for a lot of stuff.

Suspend all donations to all Republicans. This is the bed they made; let them lie in it.

They're stopping donations from their PACs, not stopping banking services. And Citibank in particular is stopping them for all Federal candidates (not just Republicans), which sounds like a good excuse to save some money...

That is hilariously ironic coming from Commiebank.
