In Q1 '26 we raised over 400% more than our last quarter, but also 40% more than what LaHood's last two challengers raised in their entire campaigns COMBINED! We outraised him by nearly 30% in total donations from individuals. Over 75% of LaHood's funding came from corporate PACs

Remember when Trump threatened to wipe out a whole civilization? And then backed out of that and talked about forming a deal with Iran? And then dropped that and went to a UFC fight as negotiations fell apart? And then unveiled a triumphal arch and a photo of himself as Jesus? That was this week.

Imagine what a killing US automakers would be making right now if they had *really* embraced EVs (and yes, this partly due to Trump killing incentives, which is a typical double whammy from this regime).

One hopes images like this, when paired with the knowledge that everything we burn ends up in that tiny slice of gasses, would help contextualize why we need to move away from energy sources we set on fire. One hopes. Climate communicators should make some hay of this.

Last night, Trump addressed a war driving up oil prices and rattling markets, with no clear strategy despite billions spent and lives at risk. Today, my opponent said he āhad the right message.ā That kind of blind obedience isnāt just embarrassingāitās a disservice. I wonāt lie to you. He will.
