John, it's Gabe.

Donald Trump just signed a memorandum targeting ActBlue — the grassroots fundraising platform that powers nearly every Democratic campaign in the country — in an attempt to shut it down.

For years, ActBlue has helped level the playing field, allowing everyday Americans to support the candidates and causes they believe in. It’s how campaigns like mine can compete and win in the face of MAGA megadonors and Republican dark money.

Trump knows that grassroots movements like ours are the only thing standing between him and total control. I beat his hand-picked MAGA extremist not once, but twice, even in a district he carried at the top of the ticket in 2024 — and that infuriates him.

Now, he’s trying to rig the system so it can never happen again. If he can shut down the tools Democrats use to raise money, he can tilt the playing field even further in favor of dark money, corporate interests and MAGA extremists.

This is a crisis — but it’s not the end. If we come together right now, we can show Trump that we won’t be silenced or sidelined. Will you chip in $10 to help us recover from this attack on our grassroots momentum and keep this campaign running strong?
