BREAKING VIA WASHINGTON POST: FBI searched Trump’s home to look for nuclear documents and other items, sources say   The FBI raided Mar-a-Lago, and now it's become clear they were looking for documents relating to nuclear weapons. URGENT ANSWER NEEDED: Should Trump be held accountable and indicted for his actions?   Yes   No This is SERIOUS, friend: The FBI has raided the home of disgraced former President Donald Trump. The Justice Department is investigating violations of the Espionage Act, which prohibits the possession of national defense information and makes it a crime to knowingly destroy, conceal or falsify records with the intent to obstruct an investigation. Trump could be committing a serious crime and putting our country in danger. We don't think he deserves a chance to return to office. But we want to know what TOP Democrats like you think. Please, friend, let us know immediately: SHOULD TRUMP BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND INDICTED FOR HIS ACTIONS? Yes   No

Hi – bumping this to the top of your inbox. As of this morning, we’re holding steady at 58.53% of our monthly goal. We’ve made progress since we sent out the email below, but we have a long way to go. Before you scroll to read, will you rush a gift of $7 right now to help us close our fundraising gap and give state Democrats the resources they need to secure victories this November and beyond? - Team DLCC -------------Forwarded Message------------- From: State Dems HQ Date: Weds, Aug 10, 2022 Subject: A donation in August vs. a donation in November To: sula_costa@yahoo.com We’ll be honest: August is one of the most important months of the year when it comes to finalizing our fall budgets. Sadly, donations have slowed to a trickle in the past 24 hours. See, Election Day may feel far away right now, but the early investments we make NOW will make or break our success in November. While most supporters don’t start to tune into these races until October, summer is the most critical time to have these races on the top of our minds. And at the same time, extremist state Republicans and their allies are touting their plans to dismantle voting rights and roll back abortion access after the midterms – and they’re raking in large fundraising numbers right now because of it. As one of our most dedicated supporters, we know you understand the stakes in this year’s midterms, and the value of early investments. That’s why if you’re able to make a contribution today, during the traditional summer slowdown, it will make an incredible difference in the outcome in November. We’re about to finalize our fall budgets so we know just how much we can invest when voters are really tuning in. Can you chip in $7 or anything you can so we can close the gap in our fundraising budgets and secure the resources we need to elect state Democrats across the country? If you've stored your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will process immediately. Chip in $7 now » Chip in $25 now » Chip in $50 now » Chip in $100 now » Chip in another amount » From advertising budgets to organizing resources to GOTV plans, your grassroots contributions translate to tangible resources that help state Democrats win. We’re incredibly grateful for our supporters pitching in whatever they can, whenever they can. But the truth is, a $7 contribution TODAY will pay off in dividends come Election Day – compared to a $7 contribution made a few weeks before the big day. That’s why we’re asking: Can you please pitch in $7 or anything you can at this pivotal moment in the 2022 midterm cycle? Contributions from dedicated supporters like you today allow our team to build a strong foundation ahead of November and help candidates win >> DONATE $7 >> On behalf of the entire DLCC team, we want to thank you for being a part of this important work at this stage of the election cycle. We couldn’t be more grateful, and we couldn’t do any of this work without your support. Thank you, Team DLCC Friend – I want you to hear this major news directly from me: CNN just released their list of the top 10 MOST vulnerable senators in the nation – and my name is at the very top!  To make matters worse, my friends Mark Kelly, Raphael Warnock, and Maggie Hassan are right there with me. Mitch McConnell only needs to defeat one of us to flip the Senate, so this news means McConnell and his super PAC are about to unleash an unprecedented flood of attack ads in our states!! If Mark, Raphael, Maggie or I fall short of tonight’s make-or-break fundraising deadline, we won’t be able to fight back against McConnell’s attacks and we’ll be handing the Senate back to him. So I’m urgently asking:  Will you please split $5 between me, Mark, Raphael and Maggie to save the Senate from Mitch McConnell, before it’s too late? We won’t be able to defend the Senate without you! >> The painful truth is that McConnell will ban abortion nationwide, attack LGBTQ rights, and undermine our democracy if any one of us loses this year.  We CANNOT let that happen. It’s why we’re fighting night and day to win our races and keep the Senate blue – but with MILLIONS in GOP attack ads flooding each of our states, we can’t do this alone.  Mark, Raphael, Maggie and I are counting on your help right now, my friend.  So please, before 11:59 p.m. tonight, rush $5 between myself and Senators Warnock, Kelly and Hassan to win our neck-and-neck races and defend our Democratic Senate majority! >> DONATE ¡La lucha sigue! The fight continues! Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto Your support will make a difference in defending the Senate, so please consider making a donation today to keep Nevada and the Senate blue.

He deployed twice on the U.S.S. Midway and flew 39 combat missions in Operation Desert Storm. Then, at the age of 32, he was selected as an astronaut (with his twin brother, Scott!). He flew his first of four missions into space in 2001 aboard Space Shuttle Endeavour. He spent more than 50 days in space and has lived on the International Space Station.  In 2011, Mark's wife, former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords, was shot in Tucson during an event where she was meeting with her constituents. Mark retired from the Navy and NASA, and his mission turned from service to his country to caring for his wife. But Gabby's service in Congress, using policy to improve people's lives, stuck with him.   So, in 2020, Mark took on his next mission – running for U.S. Senate in Arizona – and won. Since he was sworn in, Mark has been focused every day on making Washington work for all Arizonans.  Now, Mark is up for re-election in 2022 and needs your help to keep fighting for us in the Senate. This is going to be one of the most competitive Senate races in the country. So please: Can you make a $5 contribution, split between Mark Kelly and Jacky Rosen, before our critical fundraising deadline tonight to help re-elect Mark to the Senate? He can’t do this alone. If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately and be split between Mark Kelly and Jacky Rosen: Donate $5 Donate $25 Donate $50 Donate another amount Thank you for being on our team,  Team Kelly This email was sent to sula_costa@yahoo.com.

So please – as somebody who has fought and won battleground races before – take it from me: with voting beginning next month, RIGHT NOW is when grassroots investment matters most. That's why I'm asking: Will you chip in $5 or more today to help me keep Nevada blue and defend our Democratic Senate majority? Every dollar you give will get us closer to pulling ahead and winning this critical race. Thank you for being on my team. ¡La lucha sigue! The fight continues! Catherine P.S. I missed yesterday’s fundraising goal by $2,569, and with Senate control on the line, I simply cannot afford to miss this goal again. I truly mean it when I say that your contribution will help determine winning or losing this race – so please, donate $5 before it’s too late. Your support will make a difference in defending the Senate, so please consider making a donation today to keep Nevada and the Senate blue.

The Report provides to the public the first full year of data regarding CFIUS activities since the implementation of the 2020 rule changes mandated by the Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act (FIRRMA).   The Bottom Line: The Report discloses a number of trends and developments regarding submissions to, and the activities of, CFIUS including: Filing parties – particularly those based in countries that are close political and military allies of the United States – appear to be increasingly willing to file using the short-form “declaration” rather than the longer-form “notification.” The number of notices filed in 2021 increased significantly from 2020. At the same time, the Report shows a significant increase in 2021 relative to 2020 in the number of notices withdrawn and re-filed. About half of the increase in notice filings appears to have resulted from the notice withdrawals followed by re-filings. There was a significant uptick in the aggregate number of declaration and notice submissions to CFIUS (declarations and notices totaled 313 and 436 respectively in 2020 and 2021). While China remains a significant acquirer of US assets and a significant participant in the CFIUS clearance process, the aggregate number of declaration and notice filings by each of Japan and Canada surpassed those by China in 2021. The Report gives us the most detailed look yet into CFIUS activities regarding “critical technologies.” Insofar as mitigation is concerned, the sizeable increase in withdrawals and re-filings suggests that, where parties have identified serious potential national security issues, there is a substantial risk that the time to complete CFIUS review and negotiate a mitigation agreement will not be accomplished within the standard time periods contemplated by FIRRMA. Submissions to CFIUS regarding “covered real estate transactions” – which were given their own set of CFIUS rules in connection with FIRRMA implementation – appear to be few and far between.

Yes   No Friend, Mike Pence chose to stand up to extremist Republican lawmakers on Jan. 6 and resist Trump’s demands that he block Congress from affirming President Biden’s victory.  While Pence's actions that day were commendable, we can't forget that he dutifully stood by Trump, defending the president and supporting his dangerous, destructive policies. And Pence's own political record shows that he's staunchly against abortion and LGBTQ+ rights.  With Trump planning to run for president in 2024 and the Jan. 6 committee uncovering more evidence of his criminal acts every day, we need to know where TOP Democrats – like you – stand on the GOP's leadership.
