Billionaire Harlan Crow has spent over $13 million on federal politics since the 2010 Citizens United ruling.

That’s on top of the years he spent secretly dolling out free vacations to Clarence Thomas.

@arstechnica "It's mostly just a question of if the company wants to press charges", haha.

I wonder if you can find a jury in SF who'd convict anyone of stopping a robot car from driving through a street party.
