"Citizens United" might be the most ironic name in the history of western democracy.

Every evil propaganda corp has a cutesy brand name like that. Names like Voice of the People, or Electoral Freedom Foundation, or Moms for Liberty, or Free America Foundation or First Amendment Recovery Temple (I definitely made that one up, and some of the others).
Do you know what the Citizens United organization wanted to do? Why didn’t they have a right to do it?
