A small ask with big stakes

Image
  I want to be real with you: I hate asking you for money. I really do. But grassroots support from People like you has never been more important than it is right now — we’re just days out from our end-of-quarter deadline on Tuesday, June 30 before midnight. That’s why I’m asking you to donate $1 right now to help close the gap on our $85,000 goal. I know a dollar doesn’t sound like much. But here’s the thing: when People across Tennessee — and across the country — band together and give $1, it sends a message that MAGA Republicans and the status quo can’t ignore. It says we’re not going anywhere. It says our Movement can’t be bought. And it says our future isn’t for sale. ...the road ahead won’t be easy and we have our work cut out for us. The new TN-09 is 191 miles end to end , and we’re crisscrossing the district — meeting voters who have been forgotten, listening to the struggles folks are facing, and building the broad coalition it’ll take to win in August and again in ...

Don’t believe me, believe NPR…

  Ragin’ Cajun James Carville here. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Mary Peltola made the selfless move to jump into a tough race when Alaska and the entire country needs her most. That means she deserves our support. If you’re with me, use this link to make a donation before her FEC deadline as she takes on one hell of a fight in the next 24 hours: https://act.marypeltola.com/go/Elect-Mary I’ve spent nearly half a century winning tough elections across the country, so please take my word for it when I say this — we gotta get serious about Alaska’s U.S. Senate race. But you don’t need to take it from me. Take it from NPR: “ALASKA (R-Sullivan) LEAN R: This is the majority-maker. Whichever party wins here will very likely control the Senate. Democrats are thrilled with yet another strong recruit, former Rep. Mary Peltola.” You heard it here first. Mary is the Majority Maker. So we gotta act like it. Because here’s the truth: Mary can’t pull this off without a HUGE team of...

This is cutting into my nap time

  Hey! This is Larry David. Surprised to hear from me? Well, I’m as surprised as you are. You think I wanted to do this? This is cutting into nap time. But I couldn’t say no to Alex Vindman. He’s running for Senate in Florida. I like that Vindman. The man is everything I’m not, which should give you some idea of what a tremendous person he is. The guy’s a hero — a real one. He sacrificed his career to testify in front of Congress about how Trump tried to blackmail Zelensky, the President of Ukraine. You know, I’m a nice guy. I don’t like to criticize people, but I’m willing to bet that the woman running against him wouldn’t sacrifice her career for anything. I’m also willing to bet that every vote she’ll ever cast will be because Trump wanted her to vote that way: “Yes, Mr. President! Whatever you say, Mr. President. You’re the greatest, Mr. President. Build more monuments to yourself, Mr. President? I’ll vote for it! Gut the Affordable Care Act? I’ll vote for it! Go to war with Ir...

Morning Digest: Why Democrats could pull an upset in Elise Stefanik's district

  Morning Digest: Why Democrats could pull an upset in Elise Stefanik's district A bitter feud among Republicans could soon grow much worse David Nir and Jeff Singer Jun 29 Blake Gendebien, Democratic nominee for New York’s 21st Congressional District. (Credit: Blake Gendebien Facebook) Leading Off NY-21 Democrat Blake Gendebien has released a poll showing him in a competitive race for New York’s conservative 21st District—a race that could grow more competitive still if a defeated Republican candidate decides to pursue a third-party bid. Gendebien’s survey , conducted by Impact Research late last month, finds him trailing wealthy businessman Anthony Constantino by just a 45-44 margin. Just two years ago, though, this sprawling rural district in New York’s North Country voted for Donald Trump 60-39 and for Rep. Elise Stefanik by an even wider 62-38 spread. A memo from Impact attributes the tight result to Constantino’s deep unpopularity, saying his net favorability stands at -20 ...
