Conspiracy theorist in charge of Homeland Security

NationBuilder Friend, This week, House Republicans finalized their committee appointments, and it's clearer than ever that MAGA extremists have significant power. Notably, they put conspiracy theorist Marjorie Taylor Greene on the Homeland Security Committee. Yes, you read th…

Tell McCarthy to expel Santos

NationBuilder Friend, George Santos lied about everything from where he went to school to where he worked to where his money came from to where the money?he raised was going. At this point, it may be easier to ask what he didn't lie about. And if that's how he got to Congress…

Santos just got hit with an ethics complaint

NationBuilder Friend, The 15 Speaker votes we saw last week weren't the only drama of this new Congress. In addition to intra-party implosion and side deals behind closed doors, there was also the question of the biggest liar in Congress. George Santos lied on the campaign t…

How much worse this could be

NationBuilder Friend,  It's no secret that the Republican party is in chaos. After 6 votes and 3 days, Republicans have still failed to elect a speaker — and there's no clear path forward.  This implosion across the aisle is important for several reasons. First, without a spe…

Don't forget your popcorn

NationBuilder Friend,  If you're looking for a recommendation for something to watch — with intense drama and the comedy of complete disarray — I've got you covered: The US Speaker of the House Election.  It would be funny, if the stakes weren't so high. After the third ballo…

FWD: not over yet

NationBuilder Friend,  I'm sure you have plans for New Year's Eve so I'll keep this short: We accomplished a lot this year, and Ted is ready to do just as much in 2023 — but that'll take resources. Will you make a donation of $20.23 to ring in the new year? DONATE $20.23 Fro…

not over yet

NationBuilder Friend, The wins we saw this year would not have been possible without supporters like you. Together, we held off the red wave that Republicans and pollsters alike were predicting — and ensured that extremists couldn't roll back all the progress we've made since 2020…

One last push

NationBuilder Friend, 2022 was a big year. It was the first time since 1934 that every Senator from the President's party won their re-election campaign — plus we flipped a seat in the Senate! We also took historic climate action, passed the first gun safety measure in decades, an…

We're fighting for you

NationBuilder Friend, These midterms showed once and for all just how out of touch Republicans are with voters. Despite every indication that this would be a good year for the GOP, it was the first time since 1934 that every Senator from the President's party won their re-election…

Marjorie Taylor Greene's insurrection takes are getting worse

NationBuilder Friend, Marjorie Taylor Greene recently stated that if she'd planned the insurrection, it would have been armed, and she would have won.  That is insane. Not only is this rhetoric a slap in the face to everyone who risked their lives to keep us safe on January 6th, b…
