Black voters only hear the liberal side of the story

  Dear Mr. Gilyard, What Dr. Ben Carson said is absolutely true: Even worse, conservatives will find it increasingly difficult to win U.S. Senate seats in swing states --  putting your conservative values in  serious jeopardy ! And nobody knows this more than the Democrats. Liberal race-baiters have launched an all-out assault on outspoken, Black conservatives - like Dr. Ben Carson, Sen. Tim Scott, and Sheriff Clarke... ... because   they   know   their   stranglehold   on   Black   voters   depends   on   it . You see, these Black Republicans help destroy the  LIBERAL LIES  that  conservatives like you and me are all RACIST  which keeps Blacks voting for Democrats. You and I both know that isn't true, but Black voters only hear the liberal side of the story that says only government can create prosperity.  They   never   hear   the   truth   about   conservatism . "The real problem is that most minorities have never heard the truth... They've only heard the liberal side o

I'm Val Demings, and I'm running for the U.S. Senate

  Robert, we wanted to make sure you saw the exciting news: Val Demings is running for U.S. Senate in Florida! Will you split a $5 donation to Val Demings and Jacky Rosen to flip Florida blue and defend our Senate majority? CONTRIBUTE ---Original Message from Val Demings--- Robert, I'm Val Demings, and I'm running for the U.S. Senate to defeat Marco Rubio and win better, stronger leadership for the people of Florida. Senator Rosen said I could reach out because we're barely out of the gate, and election experts are already calling this a top battleground race for the Senate. Just 10,033 votes (0.2 percentage points) decided Florida's last Senate race -- so I'll tell you the plain truth: I cannot win this without you. That's why I'm asking you to become one of my first donors by splitting $5 or more between my campaign and Jacky Rosen now. Every dollar you can spare will help us build the strongest grassroots operation to defeat Rubio, flip Florida blue and d

A Latina for Governor?

    Robert, If you read the news at all these days, it’s clear that the 2022 Campaign Season is already ramping up into full gear. As one of our top supporters, our team wanted to share an  exclusive  poll with you about the current field of candidates in the race against Republican Ron DeSantis and his radical, right-wing agenda.  One thing is clear:  the race for governor is wide open.     It’s not surprising that, when voters learned more about Annette and her proven track record of fighting for Floridians, she jumped from 13% of the vote share to 40%!  We know Annette has always been a champion for our Democratic values in Tallahassee, has successfully fought back against false accusations  of socialism, and STILL won as a Democrat and a Latina in a tough swing district.    Now, more than ever, that’s what we need: a Democrat who can win. Are you with us?   Right now, Annette is taking some time to discuss the future of this campaign with friends, family, and constituents. She is t

The Squad is facing opposition from the right-wing AND House Democratic leadership

  The Squad is facing opposition from the right-wing AND House Democratic leadership. Will you stand with Alexandria, Ilhan, Ayanna, and Rashida to help fight these senseless attacks? Stand with The Squad Black Independent Party, Alexandria, Ilhan, Ayanna, and Rashida came to Congress to hold our government accountable to the people — not to score political points — but when The Squad speaks out against the status quo, the status quo fights back. The Squad has continued to speak out against the far-right Israeli government’s terror campaign against the Palestinian people and have been bold in saying what few will: That victims of war crimes deserve justice, no matter who committed the crimes. House Republicans have introduced a resolution to censure The Squad for doing their job. While this comes from the right-wing, House Democratic leadership is complicit in silencing The Squad. Just last week, Nancy Pelosi spoke out against Ilhan’s international solidarity and unequivocal support fo

Kathleen McGrory and Neil Bedi at the Tampa Bay Times won the 2021 Pulitzer Prize in Local Reporting for their in-depth investigation of Pasco County, Florida’s “predictive policing” program, in which police create a list of people they think likely to commit crimes and then relentlessly harass them and their families. Following the Times’ reporting, IJ’s attorneys hit the ground and filed a class action lawsuit challenging the program on behalf of three families profiled by McGrory and Bedi.
