Midwestern Doc: “Over the last few days the public has become aware @SenSanders took 1.5 million from Big Pharma and others like @SenWarren took over a million. This is incorrect. The Dems attacking RFK are actually getting 7 times what’s being reported.”

Saw this over on an RFK sub. Not enough media outlets cover the stark reality of lobbyists controlling our Congress : )
There’s a couple of quick ways to restrict all of that special interest control
First, everyone in Congress should be relegated to doing daily business in an office within their district, giving constituents the best access to them. Washington is for ceremonial matters or matters of criticality, not day to day work. When the legislators arrive in DC, they’re quarantined into one hotel, under heavy guard. No lunches or dinners with, um, “friends”. And no late night cocktail parties with, um, “other special friends”.
Second, put bodycams on ’em. They continue to legislate bodycams on cops, paramedics and others charged to preserve the public trust, why can’t they wear them too when doing the work of our “self-governance”?
FOIA the crap out of those recordings and watch what happens . . . typically rats and cockroaches stay out of the bright light.
Since they’ll never agree to term limits or true campaign finance reforms, two more things that could change everything.
What is the source of data?
Edit: im dumb, bottom left corner
So why is Sanders saying he only received donations from everyday people? He seems like a pretty truthful guy, and it seems stupid he would call other people out on taking money from big interests when he is doing the same. So what’s going on here?
Sad but still does not mean RFK is not a certified lunatic!
