Republicans are trying to stack the deck

John – Have you seen the news? Republicans just passed a new bill called the “SAVE Act” which is really just dressed-up and blatant voter suppression. We’ve seen this playbook before, and we won’t allow Republicans to change the rules so they’re never voted out. Will you add your name…

Trump caved on tariffs

John – Did you see the news from the other day? After a week of Trump and his administration causing global economic chaos, Trump has now caved on his tariffs plan, and announced a 90-day pause on them going into effect. Let’s be clear: This pause wasn’t part of Trump’s “grand plan”. T…

Republicans are spending over $1M to attack this Democrat →

John: It was just reported that a right-wing super PAC announced a $1 MILLION ad campaign attacking Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff. The ad is running RIGHT NOW – and we cannot wait to respond. It’s on all of us to ensure that this Senate seat stays blue. Rush a split contribution right now …

BREAKING: Trump admin takes aim at gun laws

John – Have you seen this news? Trump’s Attorney General, Pam Bondi, has started rescinding Biden’s policies that kept Americans safer. Biden’s policy pulled licenses from gun dealers who intentionally falsified records, or sold weapons without running a proper background check – a pol…
