Friend, I'm furious.

Yesterday, after direct threats from Trump’s hand-picked FCC Chair, ABC has pulled Jimmy Kimmel off the air indefinitely. 

This is an unprecedented abuse of power by an FCC Chair. But unfortunately, it’s just another example of Donald Trump’s assault on free speech in our country.

He’s threatened two late night hosts out of their jobs.
He’s blocked the Associated Press from the White House.
He’s extorted Paramount and Disney for millions in bogus settlements.
He’s launched lawsuits against the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and 60 minutes.
And he’s launched a relentless cancel culture campaign against everyday Americans who are expressing their views online.

Freedom of speech is at the foundation of our democracy. But if Trump isn’t stopped, those foundations will continue to crumble.

The ONLY way to put a check on Trump’s authoritarian agenda is by taking back the House. And we need your help to do it. 

Can you chip in $10, $20, or $50 to help me organize across Texas to take back the House? Texas is up for grabs in 2026 – but to win, we ned to start mobilizing voters RIGHT NOW.

Thank you,

-Joaquin
