The unchecked flow of dark money in politics is eroding our democracy. Since the Citizens United ruling, corporations and the ultra-wealthy have been able to sway elections, drown out individual voices, and flood communities with attack ads, all while operating in the shadows. This isn't just about politics—it’s about power, accountability, and the very foundation of our freedoms.

In this episode of The Counter, we sit down with Reilly Neill—author, former Montana state legislator, and candidate for Congress—to discuss the dangers of dark money, its impact on local and national elections, and what we can do to take back our democracy.

Democracy isn’t a spectator sport. Citizen involvement—running for office, serving on advisory boards, attending public meetings, and demanding transparency—is more critical than ever.

🎧 Join us for a conversation on how we can fight back against dark money and reclaim the power of the people.
