UDP = AIPAC. And they’re already spending.

John,  The United Democracy Project (UDP), an AIPAC-affiliated super PAC, has already started placing ads in Democratic primaries. In New Jersey’s 11th, they’ve reserved $353,000.  Let’s be clear: UDP is AIPAC by another name. And if this feels familiar, that’s because it is. In 2024 alone, UDP spe…

Sign the petition: Congress must act

John,  Instead of demanding that ICE be abolished, too many Democrats are falling back on the same tired excuse: “improper training.” Abolition is the only solution. Will you join our petition and sign on demanding we abolish ICE NOW?  Look, we’ve seen this playbook before. When the headlines fade,…

Roe was a promise, and I’m still fighting for it

Republicans are openly ignoring the will of Missouri voters—and if we don’t fight back immediately, they will get away with it. Will you donate today to help me stop these attacks before more damage is done?  This week marked fifty-three years since SCOTUS affirmed the constitutional right to abor…

National Nurses United ✊🏽

John,   Huge news! National Nurses United, the largest union of registered nurses in the country, just endorsed my campaign for Missouri’s 1st Congressional District!  Can I count on you to help us match this momentum with grassroots power by chipping in $10 right now to take on the corporate money…

If you’re keeping score...

John,   Our opponent scored an endorsement from DMFI, Democratic Majority for Israel. If you’re keeping score, that’s the group that basically works hand-in-hand with AIPAC, the same special interest group that pours millions into candidates who push their agenda. Because apparently, nothing says …

ICE is no longer a distant threat–they’re here in St. Louis

ICE is no longer a distant threat – they’re here in St. Louis.  ICE agents are showing up in our communities, terrorizing elementary schools, and posted up in places where families should feel safe. Parents are terrified. Kids are scared. Neighbors are being forced to look over their shoulders just…

What I told The Washington Post

“Cori, we love that you’re running again, but why would you want to come back? You’re free.”  A couple of weeks ago, I was interviewed by The Washington Post. The publication asked me about the reactions I’ve gotten from my former colleagues since launching this campaign, and I told them the truth:…

Cori and Kat don’t hold back

Hey John,   Cori Bush was on The Laura Flanders Show, along with Kat Abughazaleh, laying it all out: what it takes to fight for our communities, stand up to powerful interests, and actually make change that people can feel.  Throughout the conversation, Cori and Kat broke down the real obstacles pr…

They thought giving me time off would slow me down.

AIPAC poured $9 million into St. Louis last cycle to lie about me and silence our movement.  But they made a mistake. They thought giving me time off would slow me down. They were wrong.  Now they’ve got a fight on their hands. I’m not just running for me, I’m running for all of us. For progressive…

St. Louis families can’t wait

Cori here.  The end of 2025 marked a four-year high for unemployment, and St. Louis’ rates are even higher than the national average, according to the Fed of STL and USAFacts. It’s clear the government is turning its back on our communities when so many of us need support.  I know this struggle per…

It’s never been more clear that we need to abolish ICE

John,  ICE's murder of Renee Nicole Good—a mom, wife, writer, and legal observer—in Minneapolis is an outrage. We must stop this rogue agency and get these masked federal agents out of our cities now.  ICE has been out of control for years. Congress must stand up to the president and put an end to …

Chrystian Woods here. Cori’s Campaign Manager. And I have one final ask of the year:  Can you chip in $25, or whatever you can, before our ONLY end-of-year deadline of the cycle? Without you, we won’t reach our goal this year and that means we won’t be able to make the early investments in adverti…

My New Year's resolution: take down AIPAC

Cori here.  As we head into a new year, I’ve been thinking about resolutions. Not the symbolic ones, but the kind that actually change things. Here’s one of mine:   In 2026, I’m proving that people power is stronger than AIPAC’s money – period. In fact, The New York Times reported what my team and …

Cori Bush here.  As we head into our ONLY end-of-year deadline before the election, I’m very clear-eyed about what we’re up against, and even clearer about what we’re building.  Last cycle, AIPAC and their allies poured $15 million into St. Louis to lie about me and try to silence our movement, and…

St. Louis decides its future, not billionaires

Hi John,   I can’t believe we’re already approaching 2026. What a year.   And this year, John, we showed up.

Same dark money, same lies, same fight

Trump is really out here talking about: “We need to save St. Louis.”  Yes. From him.   In Trump’s America, our families are being priced out of our communities. Our neighbors are forced to choose between putting food on the table and keeping the lights on, while the rich get richer. That is not the…

They’re scared of us, and they should be

The newly enacted gerrymandered congressional maps in Missouri are the GOP’s latest attack on our voting rights. The people didn’t ask for a new map, but we know the GOP rarely works in the interest of the people.  It really just shows how far they will go to try to suppress our votes. They’re scar…

Dark money just showed up in our race.

The real con is you, Trump

I saw Trump’s comments last week about affordability being a Democratic “con job.” But you and I both know: the real con job is the President’s refusal to act while everyday families are struggling to survive.  When he ran for President, he promised to bring prices down on day one, and that didn’t …

AIPAC’s political stranglehold is slipping, and fast. The tide is turning.
