Friend, We hate being right sometimes.
Remember how we said Trump was really scraping the bottom of the barrel when he endorsed ultra-MAGA candidate Blake Masters in Arizona?
Get your earmuffs ready, because as it turns out, Blake really, really likes blowing the ol’ dog whistle.
In April, Masters argued that America’s high rate of mass shootings is caused not by lax gun laws and easy accessibility of high-powered rifles… but, you guessed it, by its Black population.

And before you think this was just a slip of the tongue… how ‘bout a little White Replacement Theory from Peter Thiel’s Arizona mouthpiece?

Just in case you’re thinking – even Trump is too smart to climb into bed with this guy (ok, you got me, I know you aren’t thinking that) – Trump calls him a “great modern-day thinker”.
That’s all we need to know, folks.
The GOP is embracing these ultra-MAGA loons like Blake Masters, Peter Thiel, and hundreds of candidates around the country. We have to stop them, Friend <[link removed]>. Help us fight back. <[link removed]>
Thank you for keeping us in this fight.

Trump’s got a type: Ivy-educated, crew cut, culture war zealots funded by billionaire alt-right big tech money. You know who we’re talking about, the Josh Hawleys and JD Vances of the world. They put a nice face on the authoritarian movement and Trump absolutely loves them for it.
Well if two’s company, three is a crowd, because Trump just added another one of these new ultra-MAGA warriors to his endorsement list: Arizona Senate candidate Blake Masters.
The Masters story is a familiar one. He was educated at an Ivy league law school, made his money as a venture capitalist, and somewhere along the way became radicalized into another one of Trump’s Big Lie stooges. How bad is it? He says he “personally believes Trump won the 2020 election,” proudly self describes as a nationalist, and oh yeah… Tucker Carlson calls him the future of the GOP. It’s like JD Vance all over again.
Blake Masters belongs in a dangerous category – there’s no zealot like a convert. He’s a strategic convert. He knows exactly the authoritarian water he’s trending in and is comfortable pulling any mechanism of power to enact his twisted vision of America.
Trump’s got a type – but what you may not realize is that he’s embracing these nuts because he’s lost control of them. The “Trump GOP” is now fully the ultra-MAGA GOP, and there’s no going back. It’s no shock he’s going as extreme as possible to try to hold onto his kingmaker status.
We beat Trump once and we’ll do it again. We know just how to beat Vance, Masters, and all the ultra-MAGA extremists. Donate today to support our mission to defeat them this election year. <[link removed]>
