It’s my last day at @DLCC & I couldn’t be happier that @heather4dems is taking over this winning team. Leading DLCC has been the honor of my life & I’m so proud of all we’ve accomplished. This work means everything to me & I wanted to share some final thoughts on this journey.🧵

Rep. Brad Tabke is one of our Top 10 Target Race candidates for September! He’s running for reelection to the MN House. In the legislature, he champions safer communities, strong public schools, and lowering the cost of living for working families. bit.ly/4qGWHi3

This ad makes the point that in many red states where Rs are running on trans issues, Republicans have already gotten what they wanted in banning gender affirming surgeries/care for minors, banning trans athletes in women’s sports, etc
#OHSen: Former Sen. Sherrod Brown (D) is up on TV with this response spot on the trans issue -- Warren from Johnstown to camera: "Here they go again, those same attacks against Sherrod Brown" Mary from Granville: "With everything going on, that's what they're talking about?" Mike from Richwood: "In Ohio, it's against the law to perform transgender surgeries on kids. That's right, it's illegal"

My favorite Governor out there taking a stand.
President Trump said data centers should be fast tracked by the Environmental Protection Agency. I say not in Oregon. Not on my watch. Oregonians deserve to know how these projects are impacting their environments and communities before they happen.

BREAKING: For the first time in history the MN Senate voted to ban sale of assault-type weapons and high capacity magazines. The vote was 34-33 along party lines with all Democrats in favor, GOP against. The bill also includes funding for school safety and mental health programs.

I like these almost as much as the Speaker Stumbo-branded boots.
Andy Beshear wearing demgov Nikes to the Kentucky Derby and I somehow have zero pics of him with his guests Big Gretch and Abigail Spanberger 😫😩 SOMEONE DROP THE PICS RN RN RN RN

By demolishing Section 2 of the VRA, SCOTUS has opened the floodgates for racial gerrymandering, with the Louisiana GOP among the first to pursue new maps to preserve their own power. @DLCC stands with Louisiana Dems in their fight against Republicans' actions to suppress votes.
NEW: Louisiana has become the first of many anticipated GOP-controlled states to announce a special session to rig maps following the Louisiana v. Callais decision. They’re delaying U.S. House primaries to pass gerrymandered maps for their political gain. nbcnews.com/politics/2026-el…

Those keeping track, yesterday Scott Presler rallied in Indiana for gerrymanding and later today he will be in Virginia rallying against redistricting.
Roughly 50 people have gathered to hear @ScottPresler at a @TPUSA rally at the Johnson County Fairgrounds backing challengers to Indiana Senate GOP incumbents who voted against redistricting.

Had no idea Speaker Hall was such a huge High School Musical fan. You are no Troy, my dude.
The Michigan House Republicans just showed a basketball-themed video at the convention:

JUST IN: Democrats tonight have flipped a GOP-held state House seat in Florida. And not just any seat: This is the district that contains Mar-a-Lago. (It voted for Trump by 11% in 2024). That's right: Trump will now be represented by a Democrat, Emily Gregory, in Tallahassee.

What @AliVelshi said ⬇️ This cycle, state Dems have flipped 28 seats blue, while Republicans have flipped none. Tonight, DLCC Target Race candidate Emily Gregory is on the ballot to flip the Florida state House seat that includes Mar-a-Lago blue. Let’s help her flip number 29!

Trump and Robert Mueller were born two years apart, both into wealthy families and both with private school upbringings. Trump received five draft deferments during Vietnam and became a parasitic real estate baron. Mueller volunteered for service, graduated from Officer Candidate School and Ranger School, was wounded in combat, and received a Bronze Star w/ Valor for rescuing one of his wounded soldiers under intense enemy fire. And that pretty much crystallizes both the difference between the two and Trump's toxic jealousy toward Mueller.

Another one bites the dust.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Important Context: He’s retiring because of age/personal tragedy - there is no Dem victory here. Since his last election in 2022, he’s lost 3 siblings, saw a daughter diagnosed w/ Stage 4 cancer & his brother with dementia suffered a heart attack. He’s 78. wpr.org/news/republica…

If Michigan House Republicans actually cared about transparency, they'd bring FOIA up for a vote. Hey, @RepMattHall and @MI_Republicans what are you hiding?

So great to see Sen. John Hoffman last night. Have to share this story he told: At the hospital, a nurse told him she had only heard of two people surviving 9 gunshots - 50 Cent & him. John says, “Know what you should start calling me? 50 Senator.” MN is better with him.
