John, Politico just reported some pretty big, shocking, totally-not-expected news:
That’s right: Wall Street CEOs, hedge funders, and Democratic corporate megadonors are all running to the press to attack Elizabeth’s campaign as she rises in the polls. They’re terrified because they know that when working people come together, we pose an existential threat to the unsustainable status quo.
For decades, corporate donors have exerted their influence in both major parties. They are used to being courted by candidates, not shunted aside. But with progressive candidates and their bold ideas capturing all the momentum in the Democratic primary this year, they’re getting scared. They should be.
But the more scared they get, the more desperate they’ll become. Some of these guys have endless wealth at their disposal — enough to buy entire countries — and they’re set to pour mountains of cash into lobbying, attack ads, or worse to try and slow our movement down.
This fight will only get tougher, but we can win if we keep this up. Can you donate $3 today to make sure we have the resources necessary to fight back whenever these billionaires come after Elizabeth Warren and our progressive movement?

Headlines like these actually brighten our day. Because the fact that Wall Street CEOs or billionaires like Mark Zuckerberg are getting so anxious is proof that we’re winning.
And if they’re this scared by the possibility of a progressive White House, imagine how they’ll feel when we elect a full slate of fearless working families champions to Congress and win a majority that can pass President Warren’s ideas into law?
If you want to see that future come true as badly as we do, please chip in just a few bucks today so we can continue to support our 1,149 endorsed candidates (including AOC, Ihan Omar, and Elizabeth Warren).
Thank you for all that you do, John. The only way we can take on the billionaire class is if we do it together.
