A liar. A fraud. A sitting Congressman.

NationBuilder Friend, We're a month into the new session, and George Santos is still in office. We know he lied about everything from his resumé to his campaign finances. His constituents have shown up en masse to ask him to resign, and even New York Republicans have joined the ca…

About last night

NationBuilder Friend, Last night President Biden masterfully laid out what we've accomplished in the last year and what we're going to continue fighting for to finish the job. Republicans on the other hand embarassed themselves through their poor policy positions and bad behavior.…

Republicans have shown us who they are

NationBuilder Friend, One lesson I learned growing up was that when someone shows you who they are, you should believe them. Well, over the past months, Republicans have shown us that they are increasingly radical. They've attempted to criminalize abortion. They've threatened…

Did you see Ted's note?

NationBuilder Friend, If you saw Ted's note, you know that our first fundraising deadline of 2023 is tonight at midnight, and we can't afford to fall short.  As he said, Congressional Republicans have proven that they can't be trusted to fight for working families, which means we …

Take a moment to read Ted's NYT Op-Ed on AI!

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…

Marjorie Taylor Greene's insurrection takes are getting worse
