$27

  $27, John — that’s the average online donation folks like you are making to Defend the Senate. It’s clear that Republicans are throwing everything they’ve got against us to retake the Senate. Recently, a super PAC aligned with Mitch McConnell committed over $141 million to blanket t…

Serious risk

  John, it’s James Carville here. We’ve got less than 200 days until the November election, and I wanted to lay out the stakes of this election for you. We’re at serious risk of losing the Senate to Moscow Mitch and Republicans this November. The Senate is tied 50-50 right now. If we …

The GOP’s attacks are working

  John — this is alarming. Politico just released their forecast for the 2022 elections, and after rating every race, they’re giving Republicans the edge to retake the Senate. Take a look: This is a bad sign. Ever since we flipped the Senate blue, Republicans have spent millions to t…

Trump’s rally over the weekend:

  John — Donald Trump’s rally in Ohio over the weekend was a disgrace. Trump continued to spread his “Big Lie,” calling the 2020 election rigged and attacking Democrats for defending our democracy. He rallied support for his candidate in Ohio’s open Senate race, JD Vance. Vance even…

re: Dr. Oz

  John, Trump just made it official: He’s endorsing TV personality Dr. Oz for Pennsylvania’s open Senate seat. It’s obvious why Trump is throwing his support behind Oz: » Dr. Oz has been a reliable GOP ally – including serving as a former top advisor for Trump and going on Fox News t…

Good news and bad news

A big warning sign

  Hey there John, it’s James Carville. I’m not one to beat around the bush, so I’ll be blunt with you. We’re in for a tough election this year. We got a big warning sign on November 2, 2021, when Trump-endorsed Republican Glenn Youngkin became Virginia’s governor. I remember that feel…
