Can't say that I have much, but I chipped in too.

Done. Galindo must be defeated. She's a problem.

Also in New Mexico. See this story on l ikely GOP funded dark money groups meddling in NM Dem primary elections. https://sourcenm.com/2026/05/19/new-dark-money-group-backs-array-of-new-mexico-house-democratic-candidates/

In NM we have also seen some "Democrats" take maga money for their campaigns, including candidates for Public Education Commission. Some faced being voted out of office after local news stories and unions were talking about this publicly-available information. Maga's PAC money has also crept into the Governor's race, and Deb Haaland sued. https://debhaaland.com/2026/04/major-network-removes-attack-ad-in-victory-for-haaland-campaign/

Our election is Tuesday June 2.

Done! Seems like a symbolic way to kick off the Memorial Day Weekend. Thank you so much for shining a light on this.

Johnny Garcia has received many national endorsements, which will help guide voters. I have a friend in the district who decided based on these endorsements.

Our TX and county Democratic chairs denounced Galindo’s speech.

This latest tactic by the Rs is so disgusting. I know I shouldn't be surprised by anything they do, but this is yet another new low. I contributed.

Exactly my thought! I was actually a little shocked, but then I wondered why I was shocked, given that we already know there’s nothing Republicans won’t stoop to

There never is a “low” for Republicans. They’re criminals, all of them, and fascist. So, just expect the worst from them and use every method to defeat and ultimately destroy them completely.

I don't like it.

But let's no pretend that we don't do it too!!

Simon, I commend you for getting this info in front of us, and for your willingness to be flexible regarding Hopium's focus when new information rolls in. You tell us flexibility and change is needed from the party and from us as we move forward, and you are setting an example with Hopium!

I'm glad Will Van Nuys and the DCCC were able to stop these Immoral People from intervening in the House Primaries, but I'm sure there will be more! Johnny Garcia in TX-35 is running against a virulent antisemite. I will make a donation to him.

Made a donation - thanks for pushing this emergency fund!

I just donated $100 to Garcia. Thanks for the alert!

Donated! This is so important

Years ago I suggested that Dems get involved in the Liz Cheney primary and people looked at me as if I was crazy. Had Liz and others who stood up to Trump, with the help of Dems eon, i believe the entire political

scenario would have turned out differently. My idea was out of the box, but it probably would have worked. If we continue to reject every out of the box idea, the R's will flatten us. Listening and abiding by the rules of the Democratic political industrial complex ( who by the way have also monetized their expertise to absurd levels ) has left us flat footed. My idea is now mainstream strategy for Republicans. Wouldn't you k ow.
