The Supreme Court lit with dollar signs.

I’m just checking that everybody saw this. I particularly like the music.

 

Says Josh Bolotsky of The Other 99%: “On the second anniversary of the Citizens United decision, we joined together with the Backbone Campaign to bathe the Supreme Court building with giant dollar signs. The video turned out great, and has received a pretty incredible reception.”

“The Kochs and their kind are engaged in a hostile corporate takeover of our nation’s political system,” said John Sellers, co-founder of The Other 98%. “We’ve come to the scene of the crime today—the U.S. Supreme Court—to tell the justices exactly what we think of the infamous Citizens United ruling that made that takeover possible.”

Enjoy.
