Nothing pisses me off more than getting a fundraising text from Democrats talking about how they’re fighting fascism… Because it’s such B.S. We’re not idiots. Everyone knows most of them aren’t doing jack right now to fight back.
People are being kidnapped into unmarked vans by masked police. There is a genocide happening in Palestine. Literal billionaires have taken over our government. And all Democratic leadership can do is send us another fundraising text?
My name is Graham Platner, and I’m the Marine Corps veteran and Democrat running for U.S. Senate against Susan Collins here in Maine. I’m not going to speak in platitudes or shy away from what I believe. There is a war going on in this country, and the oligarchy and the fascists are winning right now.
Susan Collins is the most vulnerable Republican senator in the country. We have an opportunity to replace her with a working-class Democrat – one who won’t take money from corporations or AIPAC.
But I’m not a wealthy guy, and we’re still short of our $50,000 goal and what we need to win. If I’m going to be able to defeat Susan Collins and flip this Senate seat blue, I need folks like you to chip in now to our campaign.
Please, will you split a donation right now between our campaign and The Blue Resistance to help me defeat Susan Collins, flip Maine blue, and take back the Senate with a Democrat who will actually fight to defend our democracy like Democrats oughta be?
This is an absolutely CHILLING moment in political history.

this is not a drill — we need all hands on deck NOW.
Donald Trump has just signed an Executive Order telling his corrupt Justice Department to GO AFTER ActBlue — the backbone of Democratic grassroots fundraising.
Yes, you read that correctly.
A sitting president has weaponized the federal government to attack the fundraising platform used by millions of Democrats.
This is an absolutely CHILLING moment in political history.
Trump isn’t just coming after political opponents — he’s trying to silence every single grassroots donor who fuels our movement.
➡️ We need the biggest surge of grassroots support that we have EVER seen to show Trump and his corrupt DOJ that we will not back down. Rush a donation NOW to fight this authoritarian power grab >>>
this is one of the most dangerous moments we’ve ever faced.
Donald Trump has officially signed an Executive Order directing his corrupt Justice Department to investigate and target ActBlue — the platform millions of grassroots Democrats rely on to fuel our campaigns, causes, and resistance.
Yes, this is really happening.
This is not about security. This is not about law and order.
This is about silencing the opposition.
This is about crippling our ability to fight back.
And if we don’t respond with everything we’ve got right now, they will get away with it.
➡️ We need an immediate, overwhelming surge of grassroots support to show Trump that his authoritarian tactics will backfire. Chip in anything you can to fight back >>>
