'A super PAC is a super PAC, whether it is funded by Republican billionaires or Democratic billionaires,' said SenSanders.
"A super PAC is a super PAC, whether it is funded by Republican billionaires or Democratic billionaires," said Sen. Bernie Sanders.Sen. Bernie Sanders on Tuesday urged the Democratic National Committee to ban super PAC money from the party's primary process as special interest groups and billionaires pour money into elections in the hopes of defeating progressive candidates across the U.S., including Summer Lee in Pennsylvania and Nida Allam in North Carolina.
Sanders' letter was sent the day of Pennsylvania's Democratic primary elections, which will feature Lee's run against corporate lawyer Steve Irwin for a U.S. House seat in the state's 12th Congressional District and Lt. Gov. John Fetterman's contest against Rep. Conor Lamb for a spot in the U.S. Senate.reported
"The bulk of the messaging attacked Lee, though just over $100,000 went to materials supporting Irwin," Lacy noted."In total, United Democracy Project has spent more than $2.3 million on the race so far."

REFILE-UPDATE 4-Golden arches to go dark in Russia as McDonald's exits after 30 yearsMcDonald's Corp on Monday became one of the biggest global names to exit Russia, laying out plans to sell all its restaurants after operating for more than 30 years in the country following its invasion of Ukraine. The world's largest burger chain, which owns about 84% of its nearly 850 restaurants in Russia, will take a related non-cash charge of up to $1.4 billion. McDonald's had in March decided to close its restaurants in the country, including the iconic Pushkin Square location in central Moscow - a symbol of flourishing American capitalism in the dying embers of the Soviet Union.

Novel Direct Detection Constraints on Light Dark MatterAll attempts to directly detect particle dark matter (DM) scattering on nuclei suffer from the partial or total loss of sensitivity for DM masses in the GeV range or below. We derive novel constraints from the inevitable existence of a subdominant, but highly energetic, component of DM generated through collisions with cosmic rays. Subsequent scattering inside conventional DM detectors, as well as neutrino detectors sensitive to nuclear recoils, limits the DM-nucleon scattering cross section to be below ${10}^{\ensuremath{-}31}\text{ }\text{ }{\mathrm{cm}}^{2}$ for both spin-independent and spin-dependent scattering of light DM.
