California could have a state government in lockstep with Donald Trump

As governor, I'll protect our communities under attack from the federal government. ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌

We need to abolish ICE.

In California, our immigrant neighbors are welcome. Armed, untrained federal agents harassing, kidnapping, and hurting innocent people are not.

As governor, I'll protect our communities under attack from the federal government. And I'll continue to clearly and proudly say abolish ICE.

But until Congress gets its act together and ends this out-of-control agency, California needs to do its part to protect our neighbors.

But when two extreme Republicans have both led in the polls, we can't just assume that will happen. If nothing changes in this race, California could have a state government in lockstep with Donald Trump.

I'm the only candidate who can beat them, but I need your support to win this race.

I'm running to protect our neighbors, and make sure that Republicans don't gain control of California. If you're with me, can you chip in $5 to our campaign today?

This is personal to me

This campaign is personal to me.

It's Sherrod Brown. And if giving working families in Ohio a voice in Washington matters to you too, will you endorse my campaign for U.S. Senate today?

Here's why I'm running and why I'm asking for your endorsement:

• I've spent my career fighting for the Dignity of Work – the idea that hard work should pay off for everyone, no matter who you are or where you live.

• I've stood with unions and workers at every turn – because billionaires shouldn't be the only ones with a voice in Washington.

• I've worked to lower the cost of health care, housing, and prescription drugs – because affordability is a crisis too many Ohioans are facing alone.

• I've defended reproductive freedom – because I trust Ohioans to make decisions about their health care, not politicians.

This election is a fight for the future of working families in Ohio and across the country.

The latest polls show we've got a real shot to flip this seat. But we can't do it without a surge of grassroots support.

Will you stand with me by signing our official 2026 Endorsement Petition today?

In solidarity,

Sherrod

MAGA’s grubby hands

It's Jon.

You see it, right? What's happening to America.

Maybe you're angry. Maybe you're exhausted. Maybe it feels like every headline about Trump and his allies in Congress, from rising health care premiums for millions of Americans to all the blatant cronyism, just takes more out of you.

But here's the thing: you're paying attention when most people aren't.

Attention matters.

That's why my team in Georgia is getting ready to engage millions of voters about what's at stake in this election, and what it will take to keep this Senate seat out of Trump and MAGA's grubby hands.

And it's why I'm asking for your help to make sure my team has the resources to do that work.

Grassroots-powered campaigning is critical in a state like Georgia. That's why these donations are important. So, please, split $5 between my campaign and Catherine Cortez Masto's before the deadline.

If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your split donation between Jon Ossoff and Catherine Cortez Masto will go through immediately:

DONATE $50

DONATE $25

DONATE $5

Donate another amount

This is something you can do to be helpful.

Thanks for being part of this.

Jon Ossoff

Your support will make a difference in fighting back against Donald Trump's extremist agenda, so please consider making a donation today to join the fight and flip the Senate blue. You can also click here to receive fewer emails or here to unsubscribe.

Trump is jumping into our race

Folks, this changes everything:

Donald Trump just endorsed my opponent, John Sununu, in an incredible shake-up to our race for Senate.

Donald Trump: It is my Great Honor to endorse America First Patriot, John E. Sununu, who is running to represent the beautiful State of New Hampshire in the U.S. Senate.

RUSH $10

Trump said that Sununu has his "complete and total endorsement" – and that will come with a tidal wave of Republican spending to try to flip this Senate seat.

Look, I'm counting on the help of this grassroots team to fight back. If you were waiting for a sign to step up and join our movement, this is it. Please split a donation between my campaign and Kirsten Gillibrand to help us stand up to Trump's hand-picked candidate today.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will be split between Chris Pappas and Kirsten Gillibrand immediately:

RUSH $10 NOW >>

RUSH $25 NOW >>

RUSH $50 NOW >>

RUSH $100 NOW >>

RUSH ANOTHER AMOUNT >>

It couldn't be clearer: John Sununu claims to be an independent voice, but his loyalty lies with the MAGA movement. Trump, national Republicans, corporate PACs, and right-wing billionaires are all powering his campaign to flip New Hampshire red.

But we have something even more powerful: Thousands of supporters coming together to prove that New Hampshire's Senate seat is not for sale.

Please, I have to ask again: Will you split $10 between my campaign and Kirsten Gillibrand to stop Sununu and defend New Hampshire's Senate seat right now?

Thank you,

Chris

Being honest

Hi,

One of the most important parts of running a grassroots campaign is being honest. So today, I needed to reach out personally with an update.

We missed last night's critical mid-month fundraising goal.

Listen – our goals aren't arbitrary numbers in a spreadsheet. They're carefully calculated based on what we need to raise to win the most competitive and the most expensive Senate race in the country.

So with just hours left to get back on track, I am counting on folks like you to chip in your first $5 right now.

If you want to flip Ohio and keep up our fight for working people, please use this personalized link to give: secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/sherrod-email-q1-2026?jeannescookies.rightnow@blogger.com

Thank you so much.

Sherrod Brown

A major win, but the fight isn’t over

Team, it's Kirsten – do you have a moment?

I am proud to have led the charge to stand against Republicans' legislation for additional ICE and DHS funding. We have to hold ICE accountable, and this first step is a victory.

I spend every day fighting for the American people in the US Senate. But, with a Republican Senate majority that is complicit in Donald Trump's abuses of power, these fights haven't been easy.

But when we stand firm in our convictions, we can still deliver.

Thanks to Senate Democrats and the thousands of folks who called their Senators, Democrats successfully blocked Republicans' additional DHS funding.

Moving forward, ICE or DHS should not get another cent until we get serious reforms and accountability.

This fight is not over. Republicans have demonstrated time and again their hesitance to hold Trump and his lawless administration accountable.

We will continue to stand strong until Election Day, but we must understand that our best shot at the accountability and reform that this moment requires is flipping the Senate this November.

As chair of the DSCC, I am fighting day and night to elect Democrats to the Senate and retake our majority – finally giving us the opportunity to check Donald Trump's dangerous agenda. But our success is dependent on the strength of our grassroots movement and good Democrats like yourself.

So please, if you believe it's past time we have a Senate that will hold ICE accountable and check Trump's powers, I need you to help us fill our Senate Majority Fund with $15,000 by midnight tonight. Will you chip in anything you can today to help us flip the Senate blue in November? >>

DONATE NOW >>

Your support makes all the difference.

Thank you,
Kirsten Gillibrand
