quick little survey

Retire Rubio 2022 John, Right now, Florida politics is teeming with snakes: single-term / twice-impeached president and wannabe Mayor of Mar-a-Lago, Donald Trump; flighty and fixated Senator Marco Rubio; and of course...icky Matt Gaetz. By now, we thought that the party most obses…

finally some [gun] sense!

Retire Rubio 2022 John, While former presidents – ahem – spent their first 100 days in office banning entire religions and nations from visiting our country, President Biden is taking immediate and long overdue action to protect our communities from gun violence. Ghost guns? Gotta…

BREAKING: Trump endorses Marco Rubio

Retire Rubio 2022 I was overly optimistic that we’d seen the last of Donald Trump ruining our mornings.  John, Marco Rubio is feeling the heat and clamoring to get big name (and big donor) support! ...Even if that "big name" is famous for being a single term, twice-impeached, insur…

Cat got your tongue, Marco?

Retire Rubio 2022 John – Marco Rubio has a lot of strong opinions. For all the opinions he has (exclusive interview to TMZ on UFOs?!), he’s somehow very silent on the investigation of Matt Gaetz for human trafficking. Human. Trafficking. That’s just downright disgusting.  Marco R…

⚾ take me out of the ballgame 🌭

Retire Rubio 2022 John, It’s been a wild week for Florida Republicans as they go out of their way to remind us how foolish they are, the latest? Marco Rubio gets all worked up about…the famously ”woke corporate hypocrites” of Major League Baseball(!?) Georgia lawmakers have passe…

In the grocery story, at a party, even in a spa.

Retire Rubio 2022 John, Seven days. Seven deadly shootings. Multiple lives lost to an entirely preventable gun violence pandemic. It’s time to put an end to the warfare that continues to take innocent lives. Floridians elected Marco Rubio to serve us. Instead, he took $3.3 millio…

$3.3 million?

Retire Rubio 2022 Hey John, Just to say it: it's an embarrassing time for lots of Floridians – between Rubio, the false King of Mar-a-Lago, and slimy Matt Gaetz – Florida Republicans are criminals. Resign or be retired. Moving on. Tonight's our first quarterly fundraising deadline…

Do-nothing Marco’s got to go

Retire Rubio 2022 John – Here’s what Marco has done for the people of Florida: Voted against budget resolutions and Covid-19 relief bills that would get immediate emergency funding to millions of Americans. Attempted to strip chunks of the Affordable Care Act, leaving nearly 20 m…

this week

Retire Rubio 2022 John, Right now, the country has the opportunity to turn this democracy around with H.R. 1, or the For the People Act. The "GQP" is continuing a decades-long crusade by Republicans to disenfranchise voters and keep certain populations (read: lower-income, women, …

By the numbers 📈

Retire Rubio 2022 29.8 million cases so far. 542 thousand deaths. 32,741 in Florida alone. A whole year of the worst global pandemic in a generation and how has Senator Marco Rubio helped his state? By voting against the American Rescue Plan. In fact, the COVID-19 relief plan pass…

it's not just the cash flow.

Retire Rubio 2022 John, Last week, we launched a new ad to remind Florida voters about Marco Rubio's cold, calculated, and selfish approach to addressing gun violence and NRA handouts in the wake of the shooting at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. But, …

Marco...almost took a stand. Almost

Retire Rubio 2022 John, The Republican party really wants to be the party of the working class. So much so that Marco Rubio even almost took a stand against the Amazon corporation. Almost. He…used the opportunity to defend workers to instead ramble about “culture war” and “woke CE…

Before you see it in the press:

Retire Rubio 2022 John – Our efforts were highlighted by Newsweek today. WATCH THE AD Elections have consequences and, in this case, it's a matter of life and death. Time and again, Marco Rubio has failed to protect the people of Florida from weapons of war. Instead of support…

this election is winnable – but only if we do the work now.

Retire Rubio 2022 Well, it’s official, John. The first major public poll of the 2022 U.S. Senate elections in Florida says Marco Rubio is “vulnerable.” And they’re betting on undecided voters to swing the election: He won his 2016 election by a very thin margin despite Florida be…

the group chat blew up

Retire Rubio 2022 John When this POLITICO article dropped, the Retire Rubio group chat went absolutely nuts – and here's why: "In a hypothetical three-way primary for president, DeSantis gets 64 percent support compared to 12 percent for Rubio and 10 percent for Scott, according …

he's complicit.

Retire Rubio 2022 John – Earlier this week, Ben announced our February fundraising drive. The goal is ambitious, but it's about accountability. Marco doesn't have to worry about repercussions. He's never had to answer to Floridians to build a grassroots campaign – just the special…

FWD: she said, "no 💖"

Retire Rubio 2022 Hey, John, Did you read this message from Nick? When he says it's anybody's race, it really is up in the air. Floridians are tired of Marco Rubio, but Democrats haven't been able to mobilize effectively in Florida – until now. If we’re going to be successful in t…

🚨 red alert 🚨

Retire Rubio 2022 John – Little Marco Rubio betrayed our country and voted to acquit the Traitor-In-Chief, former President Donald Trump, for his attempted insurrection against our nation – and y'all are pissed. Same, John! Still, we're absolutely floored by the response to this e…

Retire Rubio 2022 Well, well, well. Some good news for liddle Marco: With Ivanka (tentatively) out of the running, this is ANYBODY'S race. Which is hilarious given that Marco is the incumbent.  We know how this normally goes: in election after election, Marco Rubio has skated by …

For those we lost three years ago...

Retire Rubio 2022 John – While many are celebrating their loved ones today, our hearts are heavy. Three years ago today, a madman marched into Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and killed 17 innocent people and injured 17 others with an AR-15 rifle. Photo courtesy of CBS Miami…

Marco thinks accountability is “stupid”

The party of hatred and extremism (that’s you, Marco)

What's more American than partisan gridlock?

Retire Rubio 2022 John, It's a tale as old as time: big promises, critical agenda items, bureaucratic gridlock, and grandstanding. Needless to say, Marco loves it: the filibuster. It's time to put an end to the power one Senator to stifle the will of the people and return represen…

Marco Rubio has blood on his hands

Retire Rubio 2022 John A majority of Americans support gun safety measures. You know that. I know that. Marco Rubio knows that. And yet, the NRA spends millions each election cycle, lobbying Congress against passing gun safety legislation. They’ve actually given him over three mil…

We heard Marco is so worried about a primary challenge from Florida Republicans that he’s trying to adopt Nestor.

Retire Rubio 2022 Kidding, kidding, John. There's no way they'd let Marco adopt anyone, c'mon. In all seriousness though, all sorts of people are coming out of the woodwork from both sides of the aisle to retire Marco Rubio – and for good reason. Supporting women? Marco doesn't se…
