Will you stop Trump from stealing the election?

  John — Donald Trump is willing to do WHATEVER it takes to remain in power after the 2020 Election.   That includes sowing chaos and confusion in order to undermine our faith in the democratic process, taking a page straight out of Putin’s playbook for autocrats.   Trump’s pla…

Hank’s opponent says she’s “just like Trump”

  John,   I wish I could say this is unbelievable: Hank’s opponent, Johsie Cruz, was featured in a Covington News piece — and some of her comments were incredibly alarming.   Our opponent says she’s, “just like Trump,” and she has the background to back it up. She was a vocal me…

Another MAJOR Bill Barr Scandal

  John,   I wish I could say this is unbelievable: Attorney General Bill Barr reportedly wanted to prosecute the Mayor of Seattle for how she handled protests for racial equality, and even worse, wanted to charge protestors with sedition against the United States.   And if that…

Jon Ossoff is LEADING

John, GREAT news -- a brand new poll shows that Jon Ossoff is within one point of beating David Perdue in the Senate race!  But there’s bad news: Now Republicans will rush dark money resources to Georgia to save David Perdue and attack all Democrats in the state! We need bo…

We will honor her legacy by continuing the struggle for a more perfect union.

John, On Friday, we lost an American icon. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a prodigious public interest law litigator, and though small in stature, she stood taller than a giant in her role as a Justice on the Supreme Court of the United States. She was a champion for the rights of …

My opponent says we should bring back HUAC, investigate Rep. Ilhan Omar

John, My opponent just announced that she supports bringing back the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC). If you’re already alarmed, will you rush a donation to my re-election campaign at this link here? Otherwise, read on... HUAC was a committee empaneled during t…

Supreme Court Justice Ted Cruz?

  John — The Republican Party is waging a full-scale attempt to capture the Supreme Court and the federal judiciary. This effort is most notably demonstrated by Mitch McConnell’s unprecedented refusal to even consider President Barack Obama’s nominee to the Court, Merrick Garl…

These revelations about Trump are damning

John, Bob Woodward’s recorded interviews with President Trump provide irrefutable evidence that Trump lied to the American people about the severity of COVID-19 -- with deadly consequences. The tapes show that Trump knew that the coronavirus virus was airborne, yet he told t…

Let’s stop sugarcoating domestic terrorism

John — For too long, domestic terrorists have been shielded by pundits and the media who have sugarcoated who they are and what they stand for. As groups of far-right folks armed with deadly weapons descend onto cities like Portland, Oregon, and Kenosha, Wisconsin, we ought t…

John, Tensions across the nation are high as people demand change and accountability from law enforcement in wake of yet another death of an innocent black man at the hands of police. But instead of seeking unity and understanding in these times of racial reconciliation, one…

New report: Trump hates our veterans.

John, The Atlantic came out with a report that Donald Trump said that Americans who died in war are “losers” and “suckers.” He also requested that wounded veterans be kept out of military parades, and called John McCain an “[expletive] loser.” That’s right -- the men and wom…

Barr: “Police being racist isn’t racist”

Wow, John. Can you believe this? William Barr, Trump’s corrupt attorney general, really thinks that it isn’t racist for police officers to treat Black people differently from white people. He also doesn’t believe systemic racism exists. If you've saved your payment infor…

John, here’s the good news: A new poll of Georgia was just released and Joe Biden is LEADING! The bad news: He is only leading by 1 point — and you better be sure that Donald Trump is going to respond by flooding this state with GOP surrogates, attack ads filled with lies, an…

re: our truth to power movement

John, One reason I am so proud to be Hank’s campaign manager is that he is never afraid to speak truth to power — even when powerful forces oppose him. Just last month he held William Barr’s feet to the fire in a congressional hearing, and the full Republican establishment c…

Saving the USPS is deeply personal to me

The “plan” to reopen schools in Georgia

The man who can flip Mississippi blue
