- How did the Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United decision change political campaigns in America? In 2012, FRONTLINE and APM’s Marketplace investigated how the controversial ruling was playing out in Montana, an epicenter of the campaign finance debate. (Aired 2012)

As this documentary, “Big Sky, Big Money,” explored, the Citizens United decision held that political spending is a form of protected speech, and let corporations and unions spend unlimited amounts of money in campaigns. But to avoid corruption, the court said the money can't go directly to candidates; it has to go to independent outside groups.
What did that mean in reality? As the 2012 election loomed, correspondent Kai Ryssdal traveled to Montana, then a battleground over campaign finance, and uncovered startling new evidence of outside interest groups’ influence on local campaigns. The documentary raised questions about how secret “dark money” was transforming U.S. politics, looked at a boom in ads made by tax-exempt nonprofits known as 501(c)(4)s - which generally weren’t required to disclose their donors publicly - and probed evidence that appeared to show possible coordination with campaigns.
“Big Sky, Big Money” is a FRONTLINE production with American Public Media’s Marketplace in association with American University’s School of Communications Investigative Reporting Workshop. The writer, producer and director is Rick Young. The correspondent is Kai Ryssdal.

It’s kind of wild that we are able to see through this documentary in hindsight just how awful this judicial decision has been for America. We have nearly completely lost our representation, which was already severely limited. Corporate corruption rules America today, with absolute authority.
yo mama saw this??
@FaceTatt Philosophy does yo mama know that???
@ZMAN 420 yo mama said that??
The sad part is, this aired 9 years ago and it's only gotten worse, no one can stop it.
Nobody wants to stop it, because everybody likes it when it benefits their team.
It will only stop if/when a critical mass American t decide that representation, transparency, and corruption mitigation are more salient and important than the culture war. It to difficult.
This is hard to imagine happening within the two party state. For both parties, legitimacy has been linked to these culture war issues and thus untethered from good governance.
Not 9 years, but 11 years. 2023 minus 2012 = 11
Is it any wonder why the Supreme Court's approval rating is so low ten years on? It's heartbreaking.
*LET'S NOT FORGET THIS WAS FIRST AIRED IN OCTOBER 2012.*
That's 10 years ago and look at what has happened in American politics in that time.
Thom Hartman was recently pointed out that America's 465 Billionaires spent over $900 million on the 2022 midterm election campaigns that over $800 million of that came from about 25 of them.
Notable among big money doners Barre Seid the Chicago billionaire donated a company to the Federalist Society who then sold that company for $1.6 Billion. If Barre Seid had sold the company first he would have had to pay something of the order of $400 million in state taxes. Instead the Federalist Society got all of it.
Wow! What else can I say, just disgusting.
Wow what are we being fed…. So wrong!
But this isn’t anonymity for citizens, it’s anonymity for corporations!
There should be no anonymity for anyone except at the ballot box. All money in politics even if it comes from private citizens should be tracked because as FTX has proven people play both sides if they feel there is an advantage to be gained.
If corporations get the right of "free speech" then their corporate boards and executives should also personally be responsible for liability for the corporation's behaviors. Including the death penalty for intentional homicides..
It doesn’t have to be like this.
Agree 100%!
Not knowing who funds a campaign means not knowing where corruption is happening.
Exactly but those who give money have no clue about this simple logic. They don’t even know what they are lied about. They just worship wrong information
@Grace Kim There's a huge difference between an individual's donations and a corporation's donations -- even worse is an individual who fronts as a corporation.
Also not knowing when foreign interference in elections
@Chuck Guo Esq This this and more this. Russia and China have had more influence on what laws get passed and who gets elected in America more than the American people for the last 10 years easy.
Bopp was absolutely right that most people do not know who their representatives are. He is wrong that they don't care that they are being exploited by negative ads paid for by outside moneyed interests.
Truth! 💙✊
The Supreme Court is also responsible for giving corporations "personhood," in its interpretation of the 14th Amendment.
AND the right to free exercise of religion, as if corporations can sing hymns, genuflect, pray, and opt to convert to a different religion.
I'm dying for Hobby Lobby to convert to Islam.
Why not? If corporations don't have "personhood" then they legally don't exist, and you could not sue them for damages, you would have to sue each individual stockholder. You can sue a city when its officials do wrong. How do you do that if you don't have a corporate entity to sue?
Citizens United™ is the politically correct way to say "Know your place, peasants."
True enough
@frank g Because the Bill of Rights references individuals not corporations when providing free speech. When you reference the NYT, that is a different right. It's Freedom of the Press. Editorials in the NYT is free speech. We also know who is behind what is published in newsprint. With dark money, we do not. I think that is an enormous difference.
@B Bodziak 🙌 exactly!
@frank g because its dark money, we don't know where the money IS coming from. That matters a lot!
I certainly do appreciate the freedom of speech so that we can have outstanding investigative reporting like Frontline !!! We seriously need to take our country back and I'm not referring to ANY political parties either !! Thank You Frontline.
Freedom of the Press is one of the most important foundations of US-styled democracy
Freedom of the Press is critically important. We need anti-trust enforcement to stop the consolidation of media companies. I just found out, way late-2 years ago, that Fix/Rupert Murdoch acquired Disney! I knew about the Wall Street Journal buy, how did I miss the Disney one?! Mergers/conglomerates that huge shouldn't be allowed. FYI for US audience, Murdoch owns all the channels in Australia. How do you have free press in an environment like that? It's difficult. For example check out Friendly Jordies channel, his experiences being an investigative journalist there. (He's a comedian, as well. But honestly, his journalist work hits harder 😎).
@Erin Mac Your DAMN RIGHT that shouldn't be allowed !! Especially when it comes to media organizations we MUST have VERY strict monopoly laws for sure !! Its a " no brainer " if u ask me.
@Erin Mac Funny, I watch Australian news a bit and I find it refreshing. They don't hold back on anyone. I wish our press was that way.
How can anyone say the argument “the people don’t care about the source of money” but also “you’re patronizing the voter? You ignorant voter you SHOULD know this” is this guy psychotic???
Yes. A psychotic Hoosier.
Excellent demonstration of how "hidden money" changes the potential of state voter initiatives and representation in the political process. This is how democracy is subverted to the will of hidden agenda initiatives and how they change state voter's representatives.
@frank g You obviously don't understand how dark money influences US politics. Do you think Congress should be making decisions based upon the needs of corporations or upon the needs of the citizens? Should our tax code be based upon the needs of citizens or upon the needs of corporations? It's really as simple as that.
@frank g that's not politics whi are making laws
@B Bodziak like George Soros right?
Yes, campaign finance laws should not allow outside groups to donate to nonprofits that aren’t required to disclose donors. That green lights large corporations with nearly unlimited funding to basically “buy” their chosen candidate. Usually that choice is made by the benefits that candidate will commit to producing 😊
As long as you include union money, NGO money, and charitable trust money (FordFdntn) union, ngo and government employees working on their "job clock" on behalf of campaigns, then I'm with you. Actually no, I'm not with you. It would be selectively enforced. While we're at it, the SVB debacle where now they are openly looking at KNOWN campaign contributions there - are they examining the giant deposits and whether the reason these were protected is because some large amounts (billions) were stuffed there for campaign? Again, with selective enforcement we will never know.
Where’s the accountability from the citizens? Simply because someone funds a politician doesn’t force you to vote for him/her in the ballot. Choose on policies & not by who’s on your tv & radio the most.
@CLANDESTINE You are correct. However voters need accurate data to make an accurate decision. While we can say these things, the reality remains that when outside groups present policies on behalf of politicians, it skews the data. Which is their intention.
This from 10 years , seems so long ago ... Senator Jon Tester is still the most humble hero that ever drove a tractor in Butte's St. Patricks parade
One of the most important disasters of our lifetime
yo mama know about it??
FREE SPEECH IS NOT A DISASTER
@beavis408 REALY? HAVING CORPORATIONS BE CONSIDERED A PERSON WITH FREE SPEECH IS HORRIBLE FOR OUR COUNTRY? IT SCREWS 95% OF AMERICANS. WHO COULD LIKE THAT?
@beavis408 IT IS WHEN THEY CENSOR WHO'S TALKING!!!!!! ARE YOU FOR CENSORSHIP TOO?????? THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING!!!!! AT LEAST BEFORE USING ALL CAPS!!!! UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHEESH!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
Not that it matters. Democrat or Republican, there's little to actually differentiate between the two when it comes down to it.
On a national level, they took away one of the ways voters could determine how a Congressional candidate would legislate.
With the Citizens United SCOTUS decision, the obscenely rich 1% and corporations have finally found a way to buy and pay for our political system and politicians. It is now up to us to tune out all the media blitz that this flood of money produces during the campaign season and make our own decisions from our own factual research about who we vote for during elections. We need to make this flood of money irrelevant to making our political choices.
Thom Hartman recently reported that America's 460+ billionaires spent over $900 million on the recent mid-terms. Of that money around 25 of those billionaires spent over $800 million.
So its not really a matter of 1% its actually less than 0.000008% are the real power brokers.
We need Citizens United resended. Gone..
Why are we surprised that the Supreme Court shows it’s true colors when it comes down to Rich versus poor
Cant believe this came out in 2012. Explains a lot about today’s society
“We already know enough.
It’s not knowledge that we lack
It’s the courage to understand what we know.”
- Sven Lindqvist
That Popper guy is a true villain of US history
Billionaires/Corporations United, Citizens Divided
Exactly! Well put.
I love how the Citizens United lawyer accused Kai of being patronizing, when he himself was being the one who was patronizing, saying, "You don't need to know where the money comes from, because they don't care." The option? "No." Because then I can get more money from secret sources. And since money is the only thing that matters in this country... (22:09)
Corruption - is like a castle with three layers of walls. First outer wall prevents the crime from being discovered (the wall of opacity if you will). When justice breaches the opacity wall, it hits the second one that is the wall of denying of a crime - saying what has been done is not illegal. When this wall is also breached somehow - justice hits the third wall, the thickest one: avoiding prosecution. Sometimes it's better to burn the entire structure down.
Absolutely brilliant sir!
& if all else fails, the(OILYgarchy)-Mob, sends in, the(Trojan-horse)-Lobbyists. 🤮
When the lawmakers make the laws.....
Excellent discussion. More like this please.
Excellent program! Thank you Mr. Rysdall.
It should be simple to know speech and money are not the same thing. Those with more money, then have more speech.
Thank God for Public Broadcasting that stands up for truth.
Who is he to say that we don't care?
They think the public is crazy!
TOTAL AND COMPLETE DISRESPECT
I think it's more like he thinks the public is stupid, or too lazy to care.
He was infuriating.
@Cindy Pomerleau synonyms for the same thing
I was the heck!!, We do care where the money come from candidates from any political spectrum.
He totally tried to turn the conversation in a ridiculous direction.
My thoughts on Campaign Finance is this ….. if you cannot vote for a candidate, you cannot send them money.
What? You can give money to anyone 😏!
A) that removes corporations (they can't vote), B) only citizens for whom the candidates are thier direct representative for said political office can donate (no spending on campaigns outside of your district/state), and C) individuals have spending limits for said campaigns. Not a bad basis, and definitely better than post citizens united has been...
Although the Supreme Court will probably just find a contrived reason to give corporations the right to vote if this were the case.
Ahh-umm, Charles Koch will be having none of that.
@adjustedfate, nor can I imagine George Soros liking it either.
How can a democracy let this happen? I'm baffled by the fact that Citizens United still stands.
Mr. Bopp - once he encountered pushback against his narrative that ignorance of funding for campaign ads was not a preoccupation of average citizens (false)...went from 0 to 60 in about 3 seconds where becoming aggressively combative (to the tune of insinuating a strong whiff of capacity to expression of grievance via physical means)...also (and I'm still attempting to untangle how Mr. Bopp so adeptly employed equivocation in his comeback), where the implication of "ignorance" (lack of awareness), as pertains to its literal definition, as was credibly discernible from the interviewer's premise...was transformed by Bopp in his overt utility of the term, but as a colloquialism, and with a completely different semantic sense implied ("ignorant" - as in incompetent...perhaps even unintelligent.)
Mr. Bopp - went from 0 to 60 in about 3 seconds where initially, pretty eloquently, certainly calmly, confidently, relaxed, making his case for the efficacy of undisclosed campaign contributions...at to top speed, bristling with barely contained energetic pose, was declaring that any dissent from subscribing to his point of view simply must mark such holder of the counter-proposition as "some Left Wing nutjob."
Caught in the act...it was truly fascinating, watching his expression and hearing his tone turn aggressive
WELL SAID! Glad you caught that dig on his opposition, too!
This might be among the most important problems preventing democracy in the US.
Excellent reporting. You have done your job well and the horses have been led to the water.
Crazy Nazi guy said we need more information so more money is needed to spread that information but doesn’t want us to have information on where that money is coming from😂😂
Perfectly stated
Well if those political causes are too controversial to be in support of them publicly, then those donating in secret don't feel strongly enough about them.
What about corporations that may have substantial holdings in China? Like, say, the NBA or Disney.
Couldn't those corporations give money that were substantially influenced by a foreign power?
I don't understand why these lawyers or judges could not see this inevitability.
Couldn’t agree more. Anonymity is exactly what builds vulnerabilities into the election process. The people who have more money can influence elections with no repercussions. So ultimately foreign rich companies and the country’s billionaires can sway elections based on ad airing hours. If you don’t have money, you can’t hope to win any election.
@ThomasFromTN I wasn't insinuating that one party does this. Both do it. Democrats use Chinese money. Republicans use Russian.
The Narrator or Voice of Frontline gives you the audacity and mood to like and love PBS Frontline. Great Work
@Dave Pinkston when it comes to news reporting, I trust PBS among other credible Left Wing news like Wapo and NYT etc. I can't afford to stay in the Right Wing News Channel like Fox News..a lot of damage has or is being wrecked by RWs.
Kai is the narrator. He does have a great voice
Kai hosts Marketplace, which I like even though I don't pay much attention to the stock market, bonds, etc.
Marketplace is available as a podcast too.
The policy maneuvers in the house are a true reflection of who is being influenced the most by specified funding.
Thank you Frontline for amazing information and always getting the truth out there
Nine years ago. NINE. Unbelievable the court did this.
Anyone who listens to NPR while driving should immediately recognize the voice of the journalist/narrator of this documentary! He is also the anchor of NPR marketplace!
He whitesplain's well! :)
Holy hell, I can't imagine what it took to get a balanced piece of journalism like this the "OK to air."
I am floored that they have no way to even trace if they are doing anything illegal. influence from extemist views is a real problem now and regular communities are not voting in a way that helps them have power over legislation.
oregon voted in a law which negates CU
They do, as they demonstrated in the video. It takes a lot of work, though. Then, you have to have better lawyers than the crooks.
Only voters can donate: A) that removes corporations (they can't vote), B) only citizens for whom the candidates are thier direct representative for said political office can donate (no spending on campaigns outside of your district/state), and C) individuals have spending limits for said campaigns which are tracked. Not a bad basis, and definitely better than post citizens united has been...
Although the Supreme Court will probably just find a contrived reason to give corporations the right to vote if this were the case.
I am all in for the First Amendment, but in a court of law you have to have “standing” to be involved. No one can file suit on behalf of another. So in this case do these anonymous donors have standing to be involved? Why should people from one state have any say in the conversation or the election going on in another? I don’t think they should.
That last last bit reiterating the influence Citizens United has on local elections is chilling. The fact that one man, Jim Bopp from Indiana, can affect elections and election law in Montana and other states is wrong. Having money=free speech essentially disenfranchises those without bunches of it. And, talk about patronizing, "they [the people] don't need to know" who's supporting a candidate or an issue. We're supposed to be an informed electorate, and he says with a straight face that we should just take what the ads tell us at face value. We need people like this man out of "we the people's" processes.
Please keep airing this, and maybe make a sequel showing where we're at as far as transparency and campaign spending. I know it's much, much worse, but the country needs to know, to understand the scope and seriousness of this issue. 💜
100% correct! Fasten your seatbelt before you get current on where we stand today. It's a lethal car crash where that ends up. :(
Thanks for stating when this video was originally aired. It greatly helps to put things in perspective.
Kai's show is amazing on NPR.
Thank you, PBS, for airing this important piece again. Money in politics is a HUGE concern of mine, and I am vehemently against Citizen's United, which was the obvious beginning of a corrupted Supreme Court.
I love front line😘 It's just corruption . Point blank that's what politics is.
The problem with today's world is that people only get upset if the other side does it. We need people who actually hold values and look for shenanigans in both parties. Only looking into the RNC or DNC is partisan and is dragging us down. You don't believe in outside money then call it out on the other side and yours.
Political Report Cards required, if ordinary people trusting in Government "know not who is serving", they're not protected at all, just as we see.
This kind of corruption is exactly what Michael Cimino's _Heaven's Gate_ (1980) is about, a very underappreciated film.
You didn’t even touch on undisclosed foreign money…
I'm sure that Disney, NBA, Tesla are all donating heavy with Chicom dollars.
@Old Man Black Socks It's the "corporations" that you've never heard of that are doing the damage. The ones who have PO Boxes and are 501(c)-4s.
Do you mean money from other countries, or just money from foreign banks, that originates in the US? Because there’s a whole other world of malfeasance in that alone.
Spotted on a bumper sticker in Durango, Colorado:'I'll believe that corporations are people when Texas executes one'. Corporations united
NICE! I've said for past decade if corps are people show me their SS card and birth certificate. Hello?
Who told Jim Bopp that citizens don't care who's funding the campaign ads? That couldn't be further from the truth! I care and you should too! It's a means for the wealthy to help their cause by putting candidates they like in office via targeted ads that shape the opinions of the public. I'd argue the way they shape the message is not necessarily truly how the opposed candidate even feels.
Will Lyman is as close as anyone can get to my levels and professionalism, we're both worth 100 times more than all ex-jock fake-casters could ever be.
They Don't need to know where the money's coming from??? OF COURSE THEY NEED TO KNOW to prevent corruption!!!!
I live in Montana. Thanks for covering politics in our state even though we're "small". But we do now have 2 U.S Congressional seats haha!
Beautiful state. I’m from 🇨🇦and met really kind folks in Gardiner. Mechanic at the garage there fixed a broken muffler strap in minutes and asked us what we thought it costs to fix it. We said we didn’t know, he said “how’s ten bucks sound ?”. Can’t blame the people in Montana wanting to protect what they have.
I think there needs to be a candidate fund set up by the state, that gives each candidate enough and equal amount of money to communicate effectively, and use how ever they want, in that endeavor.
And any outside organizations caught trying to increase it,or its scope be procecuted and the candidate recieving it, be immediately disqualified. And if this information is hidden ,until after the election is complete and the candidate is in office, that candidate be removed from office and be jailed for the length of time ,equal to the time he would have served in that position.
That , in my opinion, would be a great start to ending the corruption.
Political parties are NGOs. The political party system officially began in 1829. Both political parties have worn out their uninvited role in US politics. Please read George Washington's Farewell Address, specifically paragraphs 19 to 25. Look for the word "baneful." Also, read Hamilton No. 09, Madison No. 10.
American politics would be much better off if all money were taken out of play. Candidates should engage in 2, 3, 6, etc., televised debates on issues. Why is there a need for anything more than that?
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." Thomas Jefferson
I'm Ted Kaczynski and I approve of this message.
Good job sir. Great reporting.
As long as corporations are considered people and money is considered speech, we'll live under the best government other people's money can buy.
yo mama saw this??
Well kinda but it surly will help the rich who vote then vote with their money that's why we the people can't get better wages and alot that helps the ordinary people because the big money mouth of corporations which is the rich voting more than once will make sure you are out spent. And their ads will be twusted
The ads will be twisted with lies whatever fact they want put out there true or false
So the supreme court has been bought out to, and if you just look at all of the things going on in this world of ours, things are getting dicey, or in some circles biblical, and scary to say the least. I think it's time to get your moral fiber out, and wear it proudly, and tell your family how much they mean to you, and make things right again if need be...
It started in 1976 with Buckley v. Valeo. Then another in 1978. Whatever else I missed to Citizens United.
Campaign Finance reform anyone? Yes, we had an act in 1907 called the Tillman Act. Time to put an amendment in there on that issue. But, we have to finish the ERA first.
BEING FULLY INFORMED IS ALWAYS BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Knowing who and where the money is coming from. Why hide it?
Thank you Frontline.
DON,T GIVE MONEY TO PEOPLE WHO LIE,FEAR,HATE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Citizens United is the root of a majority of the problems in contemporary politics.
Two things…. 1. Maybe the people need to be more informed and 2. maybe the people should want to be more informed. The right to vote is an honor and should be treated honorably by researching the real truth about the candidates and how their decisions impact their community, but shame on the candidates and the biased media and the shameful groups operating on anonymity. Supplying manufactured information to trick the voters. Campaigns have become billion if not trillion dollars BUSINESSES emphasis on business and capitalism (which is all fine in the civilian sector) but not as social service as government was supposed to be!!!
so crazy. im delivering mail and put this video to listen to. ive herd this dudes voice on npr for over 10 years and never knew what he looked like. had old grey hair guy in my head. my mind is blown.
other than that. great video!!!
You poped it?
So very, very thankfull. Love you guys.
Loopholes are everywhere and some artists are good using them in any chosen fields.
What about foreign money flowing into PACS?
The campaign attorney had a major point... most people don't know who their senators or congressmen are. That is where these problems begin. In the fact that most people just don't care enough.
Is is that people don’t care enough or have they simply given up all hope of integrity in politics?
True journalism
Us out here in Montana are getting fed up with this shit right here
"Citizens United" is unsavory. Hiding money sources is not good.
In other words, doubling down on the type of corruption and greed that contributed to the worldwide '07-'08 crash (at most 3 years earlier at that time). At least American Bridge has the balls to admit what they need to do to compete.
@Frances J. Jenson There's a lot of variance in both parties. Collins and Murkowski are left of a few Democrats and Olivia Troye is great. Sadly, most Dems are overall significantly right of center, and actual leftists are on their own or in niche parties such as the DSA and CPUSA.
More generally, the far right is ableist, individualistic, and pro-competition and profit. I hope you don't deal with American Libertarians repeatedly shouting at you lol
oh thank you for your amazing reporting Leigh Martin
Corruption is well concealed in the US of A.
Why do politicians pay millions to get such a low pay packet in comparison to campaign money. If a politician is linked to outside powers they need removed from office
Hmmm, why would they ever think that money could corrupt politics?
I believe we should have access on info as where the secret money is coming from. Why hide it?
Good reporting Novak 👍👍👍
22:20 Americans should have a right to know who's bribing their elected officials
That guy is out of his freaking mind
A FACT and a TRUE OPINION ARE NOT ALWAYS RIGHT OR WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ALWAYS FACT CHECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LIVE ONLY TRUTH!!!!!!!!!
Successful people don't become that way overnight. What most people see at a glance- wealth, a great career, purpose-is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life..
You are right.!.....
That is why I had to start forex trading 2months ago and l now am making benefits from it.!......
My first investment with Carol Harper gave me profit of over $80,000 Us dollar....
And I can even say she is the sincere broker I know....
Please I have been hearing about this Mrs Carol Harper from a colleague at work, how do I contact her.!.....
It's only gotten worse.
Until Citizens United is Dismantled, 'We the People, For the People, By the People', is Meaningless.
Look 2012 and it’s only gotten worse
This is much worse that reported - as foreign money comes in through these channels too
Usually a US lobbying firm, setup a off-shore entity in the UK through which foreign countries, using shell companies in BVI etc funnel money to that firm - which is then transferred into our political system via PACs without ever having register as a foreign agent
It's interesting to see the feedback that activist and affirmative action people have a bout cabinet members and elites in government
Because I average Joe's are also very political about what's going on in Congress
The last time I knew, it was illegal to take cmpaine $$ from sources of intrest trying to improve their co. And intrestes. Buying seats in office so they can countrol the outcome. The last time I knew, it was illegal to do that. This situation has gotten way out of hand, and needs to be taken back control of. NOW!
Old Mr Bopp is telling us not to trust our own eyes. That makes me uneasy coming from either party line. I’m a libertarian, so I don’t have a dog in the two party fight. But when a man says to me with a straight face that I “don’t need to know” where political money comes from, that flies in the face of the very structure of our system. “The fundamental principal behind any free society is transparency”. That is non negotiable. Ever!
Here here!
this is just how to keep your money from becoming depreciated as hell 101
Amazing video and thank you for breaking it down!! Despite the economic downturn, I'm so happy have been earning $ 60,000 returns from my $7,000 investment every 10days..
She is also my personal trader, crypto analyst and account manager. With an initial invested capital of $8000,it yielded returns of over $22000 within two weeks of trading. I was really impressed by the profit Actualized
@Sheila Tribb Hey, I invested largely on stock market last year, tried some index but my experience doesn't pay me. I have lost so much trading by myself Please is there any handle or link can get to her?
Jessica's concept is key in beating all odds to excel in this form of online commodity. Her management team is quite impressive so far! With $4k I made a profit of over 28,863 dollar
@Jessica Madilyn Oh yeah She is always active on whats-app APK🇱🇷
Kai's facial expressions look like a cross between Chris Hansen and Tucker Carlson lol.
Yeah, the first thing a guy who’s living on the street is re-document said he finds and then takes pictures of him and the reason they close the center first thing he does
Why are we still appointing representatives when everybody carries a smart phone now....a smart phone app could pretty much replace our entire government and give power back to the people....the answer to these problems is staring everyone straight in the face
