The latest “rigged election” strategy from the Trump administration involves producing a series of strategically timed arrests of non-citizens for alleged voter fraud & promoting those events to feed the false narrative that non-citizen voter fraud is widespread. uwcip.substack.com/p/federal-fr...

This email made my day. A reminder that in addition to raising money for ~70 Democratic House candidates in competitive districts, I'm also raising money for another ~170 #UnlikelyHeroes running in deep red seats who deserve some attention as well. secure.actblue.com/donate/house...
Hi Charles,

I’m XXXXX, the Democratic nominee for Congress in XXXXX District, running against XXXXX.

A voter recently asked me whether I was on “Charles Gaba’s list.” I knew your work on the ACA, but I wasn’t familiar with Blue26. I looked it up and was pleasantly surprised to find that you had included me among the House Unlikely Heroes.

I wanted to personally thank you for including my campaign and for the work you’re doing to help candidates across the country.

Thanks again for including me. I’d be glad to keep you updated on what we’re doing here in XXXXX as we head into the final stretch.

While this hearing didn't proceed, it's clear the Trump admin is continuing what a judge has called a "vindictive prosecution" of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. As I said from day 1, if they can do this to Kilmar, they can do it to anyone. We'll keep fighting this political persecution.

If Trump’s approach to self-soothing involves lying about crowd sizes, so be it. But when he declares publicly that journalists “should be arrested for their dishonesty and disservice to our Country,” I find it tough to shrug and look away. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

If the president wants to lie about crowd sizes, that’s pitiful. But when he talks about arresting reporters without cause, don’t look away.
