Nothing will change until we do this

Danielle, here’s the truth:

Nothing will change until we tackle one specific problem head on: corruption.

Our government has been hijacked by the rich and powerful. It works great for defense contractors. It works great for the gun lobby. It works great for Big Pharma companies. It works great for Big Tech CEOs. It works great for billionaires. It works great for politicians who are willing to sell out to the highest bidder. We have a government that works for those at the top — and only those at the top who are looking to get richer.

Our campaign finance laws enable this. Powerful special interests and billionaires use their piles of money to fund campaigns and support politicians that will block any legislation that threatens their bottom line.

That was true before the Trump era. He took an already rigged system to the extreme.

He is the worst symptom — not the cause — of our corrupt system.

So defeating Trump just to go back to business as usual won't be enough. We need to hold him and his cronies accountable for breaking the law. Then we need to clean up the corruption in Washington to guarantee our government can never be hijacked again.

That’s what I’m focused on.

I’m putting my resources towards winning the midterms in November so that Donald Trump no longer has free reign to do anything he wants.

And I’m urging the Democratic party to adopt aggressive, bold, transformational changes after we win.

I have a long list of plans to root corruption out of Washington. They will impose an enforceable code of conduct on the Supreme Court, require the president and vice president to disclose and divest from any potential financial conflicts of interest, ban all individual stock ownership by members of Congress, padlock the revolving door between lobbyists and government, create a new anti-corruption agency dedicated to enforcing federal ethics laws, get Big Money out of politics, and much more.

We can only make real progress on issues impacting our country if we root out this corruption.

If you’re able, will you pitch in $100 or any amount to help power our anti-corruption campaign? Every donation is another signal that the American people are demanding real change and calling for a country that works for everyone, not just the rich and powerful.

The Melania documentary

Danielle, I'm finally ready to share my review of the Melania movie with you.

Just kidding.

But in the time I could have spent watching it, I started asking some very serious questions — because what's happening here goes far beyond a documentary.

Here's what we know: Amazon paid $40 million for the rights to the Melania film. Of that, about $28 million goes directly into Melania Trump's pocket.

Amazon reportedly beat the next-highest bidder by a whopping $26 million. But the film didn’t even make $16.6 million at the box office. And it doesn’t appear that Amazon expects to break even. So why would one of the most powerful corporations in the world lose tens of millions of dollars on a movie?

That’s what I want to find out. And I need you by my side to stay on this.

Want to know why Amazon overpaid by tens of millions for a Trump family film while billions in federal favors were also up for consideration? Add your name to join me in demanding answers.

ADD YOUR NAME

Is Jeff Bezos and Amazon willing to do whatever it takes to promote Mrs. Trump’s vanity project because they have a mountain of business pending before the Trump administration?

A major FTC antitrust lawsuit that could fundamentally reshape Amazon's business model
Foreign trade deals where Amazon lobbied the administration to bully other countries into dropping regulations
Corporate tax cuts that have already shaved billions off Amazon's tax bill — last year alone, Amazon's federal tax bill dropped by 87%

Does that sound like it could be a bribe to you? I had the same question.

Federal anti-bribery laws prohibit offering anything of value to elected officials to influence their official acts.

And while we're on the subject of corruption, let’s not forget about the Trump Presidential Library fund.

Amazon, Meta, Paramount, X, and ABC all settled lawsuits with Trump by promising up to $63 million in donations to his presidential library.

But then that fund was mysteriously dissolved. So where did THAT money go?

Not one of those corporations could give a clear answer about where their multimillion-dollar donations are. And Trump certainly isn’t offering up any information on the subject.

If you want answers about Amazon’s payments to the Trump family, add your name here.

Donald Trump has turned the presidency into a nightmare of corruption.

This is exactly what I've been warning about. And I'm not going to stop fighting until we get real answers.

Thanks for being part of this,

Elizabeth

It cannot be overstated how important this race is.

Danielle,

Sherrod Brown is now the official Democratic nominee for Senate in Ohio — and the stage is set for him to take on Republican Jon Husted in the general election.

It cannot be overstated how important this race is. Put plainly: We must win Ohio to flip the Senate and to rein in the chaos for the Trump Administration.

Sherrod is a true fighter for working people. He can win this race because he’s not afraid to call out how the system is rigged in favor of the wealthy and well-connected — and demonstrate how he’s going to tackle the affordability crisis.

His opponent, on the other hand, is just another Trump enabler — whose big accomplishment in the Senate has been to nominate Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize. (Seriously.)

The Cook Political Report moved this race from “Lean Republican” to “Toss Up.” Sherrod has built a strong grassroots movement by his side — but he needs to be able to compete against an onslaught of GOP spending in the next phase of this race. So please, can you split a contribution of $100 or anything you can between our campaigns to guarantee we can take back the Senate?

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

As Sherrod says himself, he never planned to return to public office. But he sees what’s happening in Washington, and he’s called to jump back in the fight. He’s the exact leader we need at this moment.

I’m so grateful to have you in this fight — and I know Sherrod is too.

Thanks for being a part of this,

Elizabeth

The case of the missing $63 million

Danielle,

What do ABC, Paramount, X, and Meta all have in common?

Every single one of those companies settled lawsuits with Donald Trump — and promised to donate millions of dollars to his presidential library fund. We're talking up to $63 million total.

Now here's where it gets interesting:

That library fund? It disappeared, presumably with all those cash donations. Gone. Poof.

Now, normally, the number one rule to solving a suspected crime is to follow the money.

But this money has disappeared — and the giant corporations who handed it over don't seem particularly interested in clarifying where it went.

I wonder why that is.

Here's what we know: ABC settled first, agreeing to pay $15 million as a so-called "charitable contribution" to Trump's future presidential library.

Meta, X, and Paramount followed. A fund was created to receive the money. Then, in September 2025, the state of Florida dissolved that fund after it failed to file a mandatory annual report. By December, it was formally shut down — with zero disclosure about where any of the money went.

The trail goes cold right there.

So why won't anyone answer the obvious question: where did the money go? Did it go right into the pocket of Donald Trump instead?

We don't need Shaggy, Scooby, and the whole gang to figure this mystery out. But we do need you — because the more people demand answers, the harder it is for them to stay quiet.

The American people deserve to know where this $63 million went. And I'm going to keep fighting until we find out. Are you with me? Add your name if you agree that Donald Trump and these companies must disclose where this money went.

SIGN YOUR NAME

And here's another thing that should make your blood boil: these companies may have written off their payments as charitable tax deductions.

So not only did they hand Trump millions to make their legal problems go away — American taxpayers may have subsidized it.

These CEOs didn't fork over millions because they suddenly decided to preserve presidential history.

They presumably paid because they wanted something from Donald Trump. And now they're staying quiet because they're still hoping to get it.

That's not how this works. Not on my watch.

I've already pressed each of these CEOs directly — along with my colleagues Senator Richard Blumenthal and Representative Melanie Stansbury — demanding a full accounting of where this money went. They had until March 23rd to respond.

I haven't gotten a straight answer yet. But I’m not letting up. I want them to know — and I want Donald Trump to know — that I am not dropping this.

Add your name if you agree the American people need answers about the missing $63 million.

Thanks for being part of this,

Elizabeth

This is not an optional part of the American government

Danielle, as much as Trump wants to troll around and act like a monarch, he is not a king. And he will never be a king. Never. America doesn’t have them.

Trump and King Charles. A tweet that says Two Kings

How old were we all when we learned about the three branches of government? Checks and balances? The separation of powers? These aren't just classroom ideas — and they’re not just optional parts of the American government.

This is the law. I’m fighting to apply it against an egomaniacal president who wants to be King — and I’m fighting to take back our majorities so we can put a strong check on this administration.

The midterms are coming, and right now is when this fight is won or lost. Can you chip in $100 or anything you can to help fight for an America that works for working people — not wannabe kings?

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

Look, this trolling is all an intentional distraction tactic. They know exactly what they’re doing. They're saying absurd things to pull our attention away from the real damage being done. It’s boring, but it's also dangerous.

Trump has stripped health care from millions. He's starting wars. He's letting ICE detain children. He's driving up the cost of groceries and housing. He launched an illegal mid-decade redistricting scheme to lock in power. He’s breaking the law, and the Republicans in Congress who have the power to put a stop to this are just bending the knee to Donald Trump.

They want to overwhelm us — to rig the economy, gut our government, and grind people down until they feel too exhausted to fight back.

But America was built by people who stood up to a king. We can do it again.

This team is fighting. We’ve identified 23 real pickup opportunities for Democrats to win in 2026 and donated over $400,000 from my campaign account directly to those state parties — hiring organizers, opening offices, reaching voters.

I've been on the road in battleground states like Maine, mobilizing voters about these critical elections.

When Trump and his billionaire allies have tried to rig the system for themselves, we have called out the corruption and proposed plans to rein them in.

None of it is possible without you, Danielle, and what we do in the next six months will be critical.

Right now, a clear majority of Americans disapprove of what Trump is doing — the only president less popular than Donald Trump? Donald Trump during his first first term.

The Republicans' House majority came down to fewer than 7,000 votes — that's not a mandate.

This year, we have the chance to speak up and loudly reject Republicans in Congress and Trump in the midterm elections. We have the chance to ensure Democrats not only take back the House and Senate, but that we use our majorities to make aggressive, transformational changes in our country that benefit working people — even if billionaires and corporations disagree.

And that’s a chance we can’t afford to waste with half-measures and nibbling around the edges. We have to be relentless in our fight and in our hope for a better future.

Every dollar raised this month goes toward stopping the far-right and billionaire agenda that harms so many people — and toward ensuring Democrats win the midterms. So I'm asking you right now: Will you chip in $100 — or anything you can — to power this critical work?

Thanks for being a part of this,

Elizabeth
