Captain of the Titanic

We need 68 Democrats from your community to step up before Thursday if we're going to hit our August fundraising goal. Can you chip in $3 or more today? DONATE Adrian -- There are just a few short weeks until Election Day, and we have a chance to hand Donald Trump a big defeat in Virginia. The Republican candidate for governor, Ed Gillespie, is Trump's chief lobbyist. He touts his support for Trump on the trail, he's embracing the agenda of Betsy DeVos, and he invited Mike Pence to campaign with him. When Trump threatened to take hundreds of thousands of Virginians' health care away, Gillespie was silent. The GOP is pulling out all the stops to win this race -- they're calling in their billionaire donors like the Koch brothers. And earlier this week, Virginia Republicans launched a vile, racist attack on Democrat Ralph Northam because he's standing on the right side of history after Charlottesville. They'll say and do anything to win. We want to go all-in for Ralph and all of our great candidates. But we need your help to do it. Thursday is our final fundraising deadline before the fall (get-out-the-vote season!), and we're still short of our goal. We need 68 grassroots supporters from your community to pitch in before then. Adrian, can I count on you? If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately.

Thanks for helping us win in Virginia and for everything you do to support Democrats. Tom Perez, Chairman Democratic National Committee ++++++++++++++++++++++++ Dear Tom: I'm sorry, but every time I see your name I flash back to your introduction on a national media podium and that it was laced with expletives that could have gotten every broadcaster carrying it a hefty fine, but for the fact it was a news event.  You have the worst sense of behavior, proportion and decency of any man I have ever seen anywhere and you are the Chairman of the DNC!  You appear to think this is cute!  What has the party come to, Tom? Mr. Trump may have inartfully said that there were some good people in the "antifa" and "ant-antifa" movements as way to invite them out of something that can literally ruin their lives, but you and your ilk twisted it into endorsements!  Sorry, but I do not think the people are that stupid and your fund raising shows it.  I have been told it is now down to 30% of normal and only that good because your big-buck guys are hanging in on your promises.  I wish them well. They need help.  How does it feel to be the Captain of the Titanic? Adrian Vance
