Ken Calvert's homophobia comes back to haunt him.

In his very first reelection campaign, Calvert ran homophobic mailers attacking his then opponent Rep. Mark Takano for being a gay man.   John, My opponent Rep. Ken Calvert is seeking his 16th term in Congress -- making him the longest serving California Republican in Congress. He’s …

Wait... am I in trouble?

  John, As a federal prosecutor, my job was to help take down the bad guys. I prosecuted white-collar criminals who defrauded seniors. I put away shady doctors who illegally sold opiates. I also helped shut down a smuggling operation that sent American-made microchips to China. Tru…

After losing Roe, this House race has never been more important.

  I'll be direct, John. Last week, we watched the Republican Supreme Court take away rights that belong to women and hand them to state politicians. We've been here before, John, and we know what comes next: women will die. In the coming midterm, every woman -- and every person who …

The verdict is in. CA-41 is an “election to watch.”

  The good news keeps rolling in, John: Based on our performance in last week’s primary, The Sacramento Bee has named our race one of just a handful of “elections to watch” in California. It’s no surprise why we're catching the eye of statewide media. Voter registration data in CA-4…
