Robert,

We are at a moment right now. The systemic racism that runs so deeply and freely throughout this country is on full display and America is crying for a change. Countless slayings of unarmed black men, a militarized police force with no standard of accountability, a President who wants nothing more than to fuel violence and fear – America is crying for a change. Black Lives Matter. Our time is now.

The New York Times just published an article on the 922 most powerful people in this country. Of them 742 are white and 180 aren’t. I’m one of the 180 and I want to make sure you understand how important that is. I’m here because of you. Your support has given a young progressive Black woman a seat at the table and we can’t afford to lose it. The work we are doing in Baltimore City is too important. We are front and center on a national stage right now paving the way for a desperately needed evolution of criminal justice reform. We can’t let this moment pass.

New accountability leads to exposure which leads to reform. The work I am doing matters, and you’re the reason I get to do it. You’ve been part of this from the beginning – but right now I need your help. If you want to help change the trajectory of racism, support this campaign. We have a seat at the table. I’m asking you to help me keep it.

Thank you so much for your continued support!

Marilyn

Heidi: Save the senate

Robert, POLITICO just said it – the South will decide the fate of the Senate, and I know two Southern Democrats who need you right now, each running to make history as their states’ first-ever female Senators : Alison Lundergan Grimes (KY) has fought back against big spending – and it’s working. The latest Bluegrass poll shows the distance between Alison and her opponent within the margin of error. Help Alison pull ahead now! Michelle Nunn (GA) is closing in on her opponent in one of the year’s toughest races – a series of polls show her within single digits. Give Michelle an edge today! As North Dakota’s first female Senator, I’m really pulling for these two. Let’s help these ladies turn their “toss-ups” into Democratic victories and save our Democratic Senate. Please, give every dollar you can spare now. Click here to give by midnight tomorrow, and help Michelle and Alison raise $20,000 to win! ...

This contest in the Show Me State might be the dark-horse contest to watch. -- NPR , 5/2/2016 Friends, “Dark horse.” “Sleeping giant.” The press is running out of metaphors to describe how tight this race has become. Of course, there are more good ones. Like “photo finish”, as in how close this race could be come Election Day -- especially now that Donald Trump is at the top of the Republican ticket for president. Or “buried in mud,” as in what Super PACs and special interests hope to do to me before November. Or “work to the bone,” which is what we’re going to do to hit our $55,000 goal -- and every other goal we have -- in order to keep fighting and win this thing. If we’re going to keep up our success, we cannot let a single goal go unmet. Can you chip in $5, $10 or more to get us to this $55,000 May goal? Washington is broken. Missouri families know that. They don’t want someone in the Senate who fights for Donald Trump and his out-of-touch, extremist id...

Team Trump: Flag Poll. Do you stand in respect or take a knee to disrespect America

Robert Louis, President Trump is under fire from the media for saying he’s honored to stand for the national anthem. Now the President needs to know if most Americans agree with him. Do you stand with him, our flag, and this great country? YES, I STAND WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP Thanks, Team TRUMP Presidential Polling

Dear friends, When Michelle and I first began thinking about what the Obama Presidential Center could be, one thing was clear to us both: We didn't want to build only a monument to the past—we wanted to build a Center for the future. We hoped to create a place that would nurture and inspire the young people who walked its halls and played in its parks. A place that would invigorate the community that gave us so much. A place that could anchor Chicago as a destination for anyone who wanted to make a difference. That's why what happened this week is such a big victory. After a thorough review, a judge dismissed a lawsuit against the City of Chicago that sought to prevent the construction of the Obama Presidential Center in Jackson Park. It's a win that will benefit the whole city. The campus we've got planned will be far more than a museum—it will be a tribute to Chicago's rich history, its defining legacy of progress, and its extraordinarily bright future. I...

Robert - I want to talk about what we did last night : after starting in the polls in Wisconsin down more than 40 points, we finished the election with a HUGE margin of victory. We're also going to come away with a strong majority of the delegates. We are on the path to the Democratic nomination for president. But I want to be clear: super PACs and the billionaire class want to block that path in the New York primary. We very much expect an unbelievable amount of attacks and negativity over the next two weeks . But I also expect that if we all stand together, starting right now, we can come out of New York with another victory. That's why I have to ask you directly: Contribute $3 to our campaign to help us continue our momentum from Wisconsin with a victory in New York in less than two weeks. One of the first sentences I wrote to our supporters after we launched our campaign was something few people heeded: People should not underestimate us. T...

My black history was not white enough for the University of Arkansas at Fort Smith.

It's me the President of the Black Independent Party. Robert Gilyard. First black man to get a law degree from the University of Arkansas at Fort Smith in 2007. The first class that graduated from the college.. I am black history in Fort Smith Arkansas. But the whites at the University of Arkansas is bringing their own form of black people to represent our city and they're supposed to be representations of black folks from our city. How can I respect my Alumni when I see the same issues that were there when I was a student. These black folks don't do nothing but go to a college. Then go home. They ignore us. But they are the white people's favorite. Now we have to listen another year and watch them applaud them people that don't give a fuk about us. Because that's how black folks are in this area. They're just like white people they just have black face on. Over a hundred years our people in this town are ignored. And when we finally get a little bit of a...

Dear Patriot, The first elections of the critical 2014 midterms are just weeks away. Republican voters across the country will go to the polls to select their candidate for the important November elections. Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund is already on the ground, working with activists across the country, to ensure that we have conservative majorities in the House and Senate. Our Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund Team was recently in South Carolina , sharing with activists the results of polling and message testing of voters in the state. "The actions the Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund has already taken were a big boost to our activists' enthusiasm," Debbie Jones, with the Mt. Pleasant 9-12 Project, said in an email after the event. In the coming weeks, we will provide training so that thousands of activists in the state have the tools they need to go out and talk to their neighbors about the election. "The Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund is the only ...

Black Independent party, Your support has always meant so much to me. From my time in the state legislature to my time in the governor's office and everything in between, your support is crucial. I know you received a lot of emails over the last week, but I wanted to say: Thank you. This month, we saw a surge in donations, and because of you, we not only hit our July fundraising goal, we surpassed it. While we take a moment to celebrate our good news, we have to remain focused on our goals. I'm afraid our opponents will attack us even harder if we step off the gas now. So this month, it's even more important that we keep our eyes on the road ahead and hit every single goal we set. Black Independent party, this re-election campaign is only beginning. Our race is shaping up to be one of the most competitive governor's races in the country, and it's going to stay that way until the end. We're hyper-focused on starting this month on the right foot. Will you help ...

Kirsten: the latest Off The Sidelines podcast!

Robert, One of the many things Minnesota’s Amy Klobuchar and I have in common is that people don’t believe we are senators! In fact, both of us have been mistaken for the wife or employee of the same male senator. You don’t want to miss the full story in the latest Off The Sidelines podcast! I'm excited to share conversations I had with Amy and our colleague Heidi Heitkamp about what got us off the sidelines and interested in pursuing public service. We also spoke about Amy's recent book and what issues a Senate full of women might tackle. I had a great time talking to Heidi and Amy, and I think you’ll enjoy them, too! Click here to listen to my conversations with Heidi and Amy on the newest episode of the Off The Sidelines podcast! Thanks for tuning in, Kirsten P.S. It is unbelievable people still see men as leaders and women as wives or employees – but the more women run for office, the sooner that will change. Chip in $5 to Off The Sidelines t...

Robert, If we take control of the Senate, we can block terrible right-wing judges and do serious investigations of the rampant corruption and possible collusion by the Trump team. But to take the Senate, we are going to have to win some tough races. Join me in supporting my friend and fellow Democrat, Florida U.S. Senator Bill Nelson. Bill's facing one of the worst candidates Florida has ever put on the ballot (and that's saying something!). Chip in $3 to support Senator Bill Nelson's re-election campaign. We need Bill Nelson in the Senate. And what we most certainly do not need is his opponent, Rick Scott, a right-wing, Trump-loving opportunist. Bill Nelson is a stalwart supporter of environmental protections, and clean air and water. Rick Scott is wrong on the environment. He backed oil drilling in the Everglades. Bill Nelson voted in favor of the Affordable Care Act. Rick Scott is a vocal critic of President Obama's signature health car...
