Hey—I need to be brutally honest with you here:

We set some ambitious online fundraising goals for May—enough, in our estimation, to fight back against the GOP’s attacks as we pivot to the general election.

But millionaire JD Vance has unlimited resources at his disposal thanks to Silicon Valley billionaire Peter Thiel and his $15 million super PAC supporting Vance’s campaign.

And now we’re falling short on our ads budget and at risk of having to pull down our ads during the worst possible time. I’ll be honest, I’m losing a lot of sleep over this.

There’s no billionaire bailout headed our way, folks. Instead, we’re relying on small-dollar donors like you to keep our ads running week after week, Friday after Friday.

So, can you rush a quick $25 donation to hit our weekly ads goal? If not, we’ll have to pull our ads off the air and risk getting drowned out by JD Vance’s far-right nonsense.

Thanks for always keeping us going,

Dave Chase
