I’m done being surprised by this

Danielle, I want you to hear Donald Trump in his own words.

When a reporter asked him about new data showing inflation at a three-year high — groceries up, rent up, families stretched to the breaking point — he said: "I love the inflation."

Not "I'm working on it." Not "I feel your pain." He loves it.

This is the same man who told reporters last month, "I don't think about Americans' financial situation" as his war in Iran increases gas prices.

At least he's honest about one thing: He doesn't think about you, Danielle. He never has.

And it doesn't stop there.

On election night in 2024, Trump stood on stage and promised the American people: "I'm not going to start a war. I'm going to stop wars."

Three months into his war with Iran, he said in an interview — with a straight face — "When you say I promised, I didn't promise anything."

He promised. And now he's pretending he didn't.

He also said we have “no money” to pay for child care or health care. But his government was able to conveniently find $1.776 BILLION to set up a compensation fund to support January 6th insurrectionists.

But should we be surprised?

This is the man who built his political comeback on the Big Lie — telling Americans over and over that an election he lost was stolen. No matter how many courts, recounts, and members of his own administration said otherwise.

Lying isn't a side effect with Donald Trump. It's the whole strategy.

I’m done being surprised at their hypocrisy, but I’m not done fighting back.

We don't have to take this. In November, voters will decide whether he gets a rubber-stamp Congress for two more years of this — or whether we put a check on his power.

The path to victory is simple: We must expose every lie, every deception, and remind working people of the truth they already feel — Trump never had their best interests in mind, and he will always, always put himself first.

But not only that, Democrats need to give voters something to vote FOR instead of just being “not Trump.” That’s why I’m laser-focused on pushing our party to champion policies like universal child care, taxing the rich, and raising the minimum wage — no matter how much it may upset corporate donors.

His strategy is to lie so often that we stop keeping track. We won’t give him the satisfaction. If you're able, will you pitch in $100 or any amount to power our campaign to expose the lies, take back Congress, and get our government to ACTUALLY work for working people?

Brad Lander

Danielle,

What working people need right now are more leaders in the Democratic Party who will actually fight for them.

That’s why I’m proud to have endorsed my friend Brad Lander for Congress.

Brad is the real deal. After Trump's ICE agents kidnapped New Yorkers, Brad put his body on the line to stop them. When Trump and Musk stole $80 million from New York City, Brad uncovered it and forced them to give it back.

Whether fighting for affordable housing as a member of City Council or rooting out corruption as comptroller, Brad has always shown up — not just with words, but with action.

Brad’s primary is coming up fast. Can you split a donation between Brad and our movement today?

If you've saved payment info with ActBlue Express, your donation will process automatically:

Too many politicians (including Brad’s opponent) build campaigns powered by big money and wealthy insiders. Brad is building something different: person by person, neighbor by neighbor, family by family.

That matters.

Because when someone fights their way into Washington with grassroots support, you know exactly who they’ll fight for once they get there.

Brad has the grit, the values, and the courage we need in Congress right now. But he’s counting on people like you to help him compete against the flood of money pouring into this race.

Before the June primary, can you split a donation of $100 — or whatever you can — to help send Brad Lander to Congress and strengthen our fight for a government that works for working people, not just the wealthy and well-connected?

Thanks for being a part of this,

Elizabeth

I’m not having it.

Danielle,

This is a longer note about how private equity executives and AI companies are taking over our country’s electrical grid — but I hope you stay with me, because it directly impacts the utility bills you receive every month.

Since President Trump took office a year and a half ago, gas and electricity bills have risen by 11%.

And private equity — you know, guys who are gutting hospitals, nursing homes, and local malls — they're on track to make things worse.

Let me zoom out for a sec and clarify what’s going on:

Right now, our country is using much more energy than before.

And don’t let them fool you. It's not because you're keeping the AC on longer or running the dryer too much. That increase is coming from AI data centers sucking up more and more electricity.

In fact, according to the International Energy Agency, data center electricity demand worldwide will more than DOUBLE by 2029.

And as always, Wall Street smells money.

Data centers need a tremendous amount of energy to go online. So much energy that our grid isn't ready. As AI scales up, it will require upgrades to our electrical grid — really expensive upgrades.

So private equity companies are now trying to buy up all the utility companies that will be responsible for making those upgrades.

And we know how damaging the private equity playbook can be to the industries they take over: They cut staff, make services worse, and jack up prices for consumers.

So basically, AI data centers and private equity interests will both be cashing in by taking over our public utility system, making your services worse, sucking up profits for themselves, and passing cost increases onto consumers.

And here's the real kicker, Danielle: Utility companies are legally allowed to operate as monopolies.

So no matter how bad it gets, you're probably stuck with your utility company. If they come in and raise your rates, you gotta pay it. If private equity mismanages your utility company, you gotta deal with it.

I’m not having it.

I’ve already called for Big Tech companies to pay their fair share for the electrical grid updates made specifically to accommodate their data centers’ energy needs. And I’ve opened up oversight investigations into Blackrock and Blackstone in response to their utility company acquisitions.

All of us need to stand up to this corporate takeover. Add your name if you’re with me: Private equity executives should NOT be able to profit off of public goods like our utilities. Let’s demonstrate that there’s strong, public pushback to their greed.

ADD MY NAME

What happened at 4 a.m.

Danielle,

At 4 o'clock this morning, Senate Republicans gave the green light for the IRS to drop ALL investigations into Trump and his family.

That’s right, 4 a.m. Almost like they were hoping no one would notice.

Make no mistake: We noticed.

Here's how it went down: Trump's own acting attorney general ordered the IRS to drop every investigation into Trump, his family, their businesses, and their affiliates — including audits that could have cost him more than $100 million.

Gone.

In exchange, Trump dropped a lawsuit he had filed against the IRS — an agency he controls — that he was using as leverage to cut this deal. Tax experts say this is nothing like a normal IRS settlement. I'll call it what it is: corruption.

Democrats brought a bill to the floor to block it. Republicans killed it.

If Trump has been evading taxes — and his record strongly suggests that's possible — we will literally never know.

The most powerful man in the world just used that power to make sure he never has to pay his taxes. That's not America. That's a monarchy. And it’s a gut punch to every American who works hard and plays by the rules.

I won’t stand for it.

I've introduced the Presidential Tax Transparency Act: the President, Vice President, and candidates for those offices must disclose their tax returns for the last 10 years. Posted publicly. And if they refuse, the IRS provides them directly.

No more hiding. No more 4 a.m. sweetheart deals. I'm not going to stop fighting until we get this done. But I need your support.

If you’re able, will you pitch in $100 or any amount to help stop these kinds of brazen abuses of power? Every donation is another signal that the American people are demanding real change and that no one (not even Trump) is above the law.
