from Vital Questions · host Che Guerrero & La Co-Host
On this episode of Vital Questions, Che Guerrero and La Co-Host speak with Tiffany Muller, President of End Citizens United, about why the wealthy are able to fund elections — and how the Citizens United Supreme Court decision opened the floodgates for Super PACs, dark money, and billionaire control of U.S. politics.We break down how corporations were granted First Amendment “speech” rights, why transparency failed, how Big Oil and Big Tech became early beneficiaries, and what the 2024 election revealed about corruption, deregulation, and power. Most importantly, we talk about solutions — including how candidates can win without corporate PAC money through initiatives like Unrig Washington.If you’ve ever asked “how is this legal?” — this episode answers that, and what we can actually do about it.Resources mentioned in this episode:• End Citizens United (fighting big money in politics):https://www.endcitizensunited.org/• Unrig Washington (candidates rejecting corporate PAC money & dark money):https://www.endcitizensunited.org/unrig-washington• Let America Vote (ECU’s voting-rights arm):https://letamericavote.org/• USCIS Case Status Tracker (referenced in Ep. 33):https://apps.apple.com/us/app/case-tracker-for-uscis-nvc/id921827126 🔗 Follow & support Che Guerrero:• Website / hub: https://www.cheguerrero.com/• Linktree (all platforms): https://linktr.ee/Cheguerrero• TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cheguerreroeng• Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cheguerreroeng/• Substack: https://substack.com/@cheguerreroeng• YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CheGuerreroeng#VitalQuestions #EndCitizensUnited #GetMoneyOutOfPolitics #CitizensUnited #DarkMoney #SuperPACs
