Trump is funding Stefanik💰​💰​💰

Stefanik has gone full MAGA, and she is getting rewarded with leadership positions and campaign cash.   Elise Stefanik’s loyalty to Donald Trump is paying off for her in a major way, John. Trump just wrote Stefanik a check for her re-election campaign, and Stefanik is bragging about it on…

summer slump

People are taking vacations and tuning out from politics.   We’ll be honest with you, John, the summer months are not easy for campaign fundraising. People are taking vacations and tuning out from politics — and we don’t blame them. But our end-of-month deadline is tonight, and…

no longer surprising

We are constantly appalled by the votes she takes, the statements she makes, and the ways she fails the North Country.   John — Some of the things Elise Stefanik does and says are no longer surprising, but they are still disappointing. We are constantly appalled by the votes sh…

Investigating the January 6th insurrection

We need leaders who will put real patriotism and the rule of law above campaign cash and Donald Trump.   John, Yesterday, the select committee investigating the January 6th insurrection began its inquiry into the deadly attack on the U.S. Capitol. Four police officers gave pow…

Stefanik’s appalling lie about January 6:

Elise has gone from purported moderate to full on MAGA.   John, Today, four Capitol Police officers testified before the House select committee investigating the January 6 insurrection. Instead of listening to these officers’ stories of bravery, duty, and democracy, Elise Stefa…

To defeat Elise and save our democracy, we need to think big and act boldly.   John, After we saw that Elise Stefanik raised $1.5 million last quarter, my team and I decided that the best way to demonstrate our grassroots strength is to get 1,500 contributions before July ends.…

no insurrectionists on the January 6th committee

An extreme faction of the GOP is trying to delegitimize the investigation.   John, There are still many unanswered questions from January 6th — the day a violent mob of insurrectionists attacked our Capitol and threatened our democracy. The American people deserve answers, acc…

too extreme

When Elise Stefanik puts lies above truth and tribalism over patriotism, she insults our values and disrespects our democracy.   John, Last week, the House of Representatives voted to create a select committee to investigate the January 6th Capitol insurrection and to figure ou…
