They say a picture’s worth a thousand words, but how about a GIF? That’s like a hundred pictures in one…and this one really says it all.

Seriously. If you do one thing today, can it be splitting a contribution between Blue Amp Action and my friend Josh Riley’s campaign for Congress in NY-19?

 

Josh’s race is one of the most competitive in the entire country, and national Democrats just named it one of the top flip opportunities we need to win to take back the House. It’s also a great opportunity to beat up on a truly insufferable Republican, which you know is almost as important. 

A few months ago Marc Molinaro (Josh’s opponent) told a bunch of reporters how stupid he thinks everyone he represents is. He said they wouldn’t know what was going on in Washington if “he backed over them with a pickup truck.”

Give me a break. I’d rather get backed over by a pickup truck myself than see that jerk go back to Congress. (Figuratively, I mean. Please don’t take this as an invitation…)

The point is, Molinaro really sucks, and Josh is really, really great. So will you scroll up and check out my gif one more time, and then chip in whatever you can to Blue Amp Action and Josh’s campaign today?

P.S. I always put a PS at the end of these emails. You know what that stands for? Please Send Josh money. Thanks!

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t.

When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families.

Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we.

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
