- Legitimate, grassroots candidates can’t compete on a level playing field.
- Winners are the ones who take hidden money—and advance those covert agendas.
- Fact: Anonymous dark-money donors “win” about 90 % of elections.
After
- Every dollar spent must trace back to a real human—no more shell groups.
- Hidden billionaires and secret agendas vanish from the political process.
- Voters see exactly who’s funding which message.
- Grassroots candidates finally get a fair shot at winning.
- Elections return to “people power,” not Dark Money rule.
