re: 2024 Founding Donor

  My name is Jon Tester. I'm the Senate's only working dirt farmer. I lost three fingers in a meat grinding accident when I was younger. I get a $12 flattop haircut. Most of my shirts are stained with dirt. Montana values are in my bones. And I'm sure as hell going to win this race…

The GOP’s extreme, anti-abortion agenda.
