Amazing how this money cannot be identified but at the same time we know who's getting the benefit of the campaign.

I wish I can vote for Kat but I'm not a Chicago resident, still see this movement going up, and makes me happy to thing we can have a better democracy through new representation.

Money is a type of speech that can anonymously buy other people's speech. The political influencers who accepted the money should cease being political influencers as they can no longer be trusted.

It must be wild to take a couple grand from someone you do absolutely no research on and still be given a pass by the very people you're doing real world harm to.

Screw these "creators". I look forward to CoffeeZilla or MoistCrtitikal exposing these fuckers who took the money and parroted the BS.
