In this video Heimler walks you through another required Supreme Court case for the AP Government curriculum, namely, Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission (FEC).
This case is all about campaign finance laws and how they affect the first amendment's protection of free speech. And if you think that corporations aren't people, well, then the Supreme Court disagrees with you. - บันเทิง

watching this 3 1/2 hours before the exam 😭
Watching this 13 minutes before the exam
Same here,I hope you did well 😭
Hiemler carrying me through not one, not two, but three ap exams. (Gov, Macro, and Euro). Your videos are godlike, and I watch them even if I am not taking the class. Love the content keep it up!
Ong it's so useful and entertaining!
It's unfortunate that it's so common for people to equate corporations with unions when it comes to campaign funding, when the power of unions have so steadily decreased, while the power of corporations has increased. They really shouldn't be put in the same category.
babe, wake up, heimlers history posted
Thank you soooo much for making these videos!! I promised myself that if I ever passed my exam, I would comment and thank you for helping me! I crammed for six days straight, watching your content and learning everything I could! you saved me from failing!) Thanks to binge-watching your videos, I passed my Florida Civic Literacy Test in May. I took the Florida Civic Test because I was in AMH-1020 but needed to learn more about The United States Constitution and Supreme Courts etc. since AMH-1020 didn't focus on those topics. But your videos gave me a complete understanding and helped me feel confident going into the test. Thank you!!! Keep on with the good work!! 💯💯😎
Dude, excellent job, quick and easy, no fluff, factual and not desperately trying to be funny for no reason.
I love all of these supreme court case videos! Thank you so much for making them! They make my history project way less daunting.
I'm glad I found this video during my Political Science tutoring session with my tutor. It made me understand the Citizens United v. FEC case more understandable and it gave me ideas to write down for my homework.
These videos are so helpful!
Thanks! This really helps :3
Didn't came here to study for an exam, but thanks to learning about that case from Captain Fantastic and I'm grateful for the comprehensible video.
thank you, your videos have helped me so much in studying for my upcoming exams! i’m forever grateful
One small error: The name of the legislation is the "Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act." Hence the acronym BCRA.
On to my opinion, which is that corporations are NOT mere associations of individual persons. Corporations are granted privileges which would not otherwise apply to any association of people. Privileges such as limited liability so that shareholders in a corporation cannot be sued for that corporation's wrongdoing.
Every other democratic country on planet Earth has serious limitations upon corporations influencing election campaigns with corporate money. And not just within 60 days of an election.
For example, in Canada, corporations and trade unions are banned from donating any money whatsoever to a political party, candidate or third party advocating for a political party, candidate or issue. They are also banned from providing any of their employees to work for a party, candidate or third party advocate.
Wait, what name did I say for BCRA?
@@heimlershistory Bipartisan Campaign Finance Act :)
@@heimlershistory At 0:20 you called it the "Bipartisan Campaign Finance Act" both verbally and in writing on the screen. Like I said, a small error.
AGREED
good luck yall 🙏
Guess what time it is again?? 😍😍 😭
Good video
best TH-camr ever you are such a help!!!!
Aw thanks 🙏
great for a cram sesh!!
Thank you so much you explained it perfectly google wants to make it difficult.
1:03 had me cackling like what kinda move is that XD
I have my exam on this topic tomorrow. My luck 😭♥️
What subject
@@MrDanielfff777 chemistry
Bless your soul mister! Now I can finish my homework quicker
Great video. Very short and to the point. It's so hard to find a clean opinion on these controversial cases without listening to a lot of political BS. Thanks for the clarity!
We do need to put a cap on campaign donations, we can't have mega millions pouring it, it should be capped too a flat percentage rate with their personal incomes. It's ridiculous how much power lobbyists have and this would be the fix
i love this
Interesting

Can anyone challenge this decision? If so, when? Who has the authority to do this? Why hasn't it been challenged before? If it has, when? Thanks, I just discovered your channel.....can't find the answers to these questions...
Hello! I know it’s very late, but I’ll try my best to explain (from my admittedly limited understanding)
Yes, this decision can be challenged. However, it has to end up in front of the Supreme Court in a case. SCOTUS can’t overturn cases whenever they want to (see the Dobbs ruling - there’s a reason that Dobbs overturned Roe, instead of the bench overturning Roe without prompting). The case also has to have real harm done to the prosecuting party, etc, etc. Also, Citizens United was recent enough that it would be extremely difficult to prove that the precedent is outdated or wrong. (Remember, many of the justices on the bench now were also on the bench for Citizens United.)
Congress can also ‘overturn’ it through legislation. While this doesn’t remove Citizens United from existing, as Congress cannot actually overturn Supreme Court rulings, they could write (and pass) a law that makes Citizens United unconstitutional. However, it would have to be a constitutional amendment, which is very hard to pass. Additionally, since the effects of Citizens United actively help politicians, Congress probably wouldn’t pass that amendment.
I hope this helped!
🙏🏼
thank you for exsplaining this critical info
THANK YOU. . . .!!!!!
are you breathing when you talk this FFiNing fast your words are distorted ? not always, just when your rushing
BUT I NEED TO HEAR EVERY WORD WHILE LEARNING DANM..!!!!
thanks your funny too - great job !
Am I the only one that sees this bill as a extreme violation of the 1st amendment to every poor American?
Am I crazy?
Its a SC case not a bill.
good luck LMAO
Great vid thank you....!!!!! please speak slowly and clearly
LOL, Supreme Court Bobbleheads?!?
Mmhmm
Ima miss you Heimler
So I’m watching your videos from the perspective of a 22 year old trying to understand politics. And I really like your content! But- something I noticed and made me think was these “required” vs “non required” cases. As someone trying understand campaign finance, all of these cases seem relevant and important to learn for cultural context. This tendency in the US to focus on what to remember for the test rather than synthesizing and contextualizing info is one of the contributing factors to why people are so politically ignorant, myself included! I remember getting out of highschool feeling like I learned a LOT but didn’t understand the connections between ANYTHING. Bc we memorize events we don’t LEARN how they connect and cause and effect and stuff like that. Idk 🤷🏼♀️
The difference is for AP gov, college board requires only 15 cases to be known for the exam.. thats why heimler says "required case". Although all cases have some importance
Yeah, like @rpqx. said, this channel is technically made to help high schoolers taking AP exams, this one is specifically for the AP Government test. For the test, these cases are required, so while you're not necessarily wrong and it's important to learn about more cases than just these, Heimler's History is focused on helping AP students, not necessarily the general public.
@@graciewestphal7898 yeah, I get that, as an AP student in the past I am commenting on the whole structure from my own experience, and how it’s not actually helpful for AP classes to be designed the way they are.
I was an AP student by self and I remember focusing specifically on what I needed to know to get a 5…
@@jerrylyns7331 so.. i dont get what your tryna say. you asked what were the non-required cases and required cases.... how does this relate to one knowing how to get a 5 as you mentioned?
y’all ready for may 1st 💀??
No, today is my first time reviewing the entire course lmao
The loudest voices in politics are entities without the needs of mortal humans and whose primary purpose is a fiduciary responsibility to maximize profits for shareholders? 🤣🤣🤣 this can only succeed.

finished the gov exam, last social studies ap. thank u for all the help🤍
is anyone else here after midnight?
It's 7am so... yes?
Hello
How is it even sane to expect the criminals to regulate themselves?
U didnt mention indpendent expenditures? Is that part of it? Do we have to know it for the exam?
Thank you for sharing. This is not what most of America wants or need
How do you NOT owe a corporation favors if it bankrolls your campaign? Like what? Were they high or something?
This doesn't include donations to politicians.
Why is money protected speech?
Why is it not?
One of the worst laws ever passed.
100% agree, this decision made our government more controlled by the rich than ever before.
@@lincolnwhiting8746
How no one saw this coming or even knows about this just amazes me.
No
@@sebastienholmes548 no what?
Ahhh yes, it does *not* mean that candidate 'owes them favors'... but it does not *not* mean they don't owe them favors either, wink wink 😉
😒🤡
This was a blessing for Russia (And Putin, the richest man in the world)
🤥 cu 🗑️ 😂🤣😂🤣😂👍
Can you talk any faster? This video is too long and slow
Can’t tell if this is a joke but you can adjust playback speed
I think it’s the perfect pace - not everyone comprehends at the same speed honestly way too many videos the speakers talk far too fast
why are you talking so fcking fast????? like i didnt grasp anything in this video
There are video speed settings in TH-cam, you could set it to .5 or .75x speed
So I can watch every video the night before!
This may be what we used to call “Cliff’s Notes” fodder for Gen-Z but it’s a harrowing review of yet another vivid subchapter of American decline for this Gen-Xer, yours truly… Also, it’s so crazy to think that these kids have massive advantages over us as far as the wealth of high-quality study resources available; we couldn’t really procrastinate at our I.B. programme because we had to read books in full more or less.
