Brace yourselves for more trickle-down lies. The Koch brothers are kicking their propaganda machine into high gear this year to defend the tax cuts for the rich and corporations that Trump and Republican leaders rammed through Congress last month. Their multimillion-dollar campaign will include television, radio, and online ads along with town hall events and workshops.
This is exactly how the vicious cycle of big money in politics erodes our democracy: The wealthy and corporations spend millions on campaign contributions and lobbying to secure massive tax breaks, which in turn only increases their spending power over our political system. We must stop the Koch machine and reclaim our democracy before it’s too late. What do you think?
