This latest decision comes years after the Supreme Court eased spending by outside political organizations in the 2010 Citizens United case. The decision opened the floodgates for outside money in politics and ballooned the amount of money spent on campaigns.
While Democrats have taken to criticizing the Citizens United case, many – including Clinton – have benefited from it. The ruling has allowed a cadre of former Clinton advisers and confidants to form Super PACs that are helping build a campaign infrastructure should the former secretary of state decide to run.
The response came after Clinton was asked about Congress' unpopularity and the standing of the legislative body.Clinton suggested that voters don't give money to people who "tell you they will not compromise" because "it only encourages them."
So Hillary Clinton is, indirectly, complaining about the case that held the government can't put a corporation in jail for criticizing Hillary Clinton.
