Jon Husted gladly accepted Max Miller's endorsement earlier this year. As of today, that endorsement, with a video of Miller, is still on Husted's campaign website.

ICYMI: Senate Majority PAC continues to be on the offense. Last week we announced an additional $54 million in TV reservations across four Republican-held states: $24M for Ohio $2M for Alaska $17M for Iowa $11M for North Carolina. Each state has an equally robust digital campaign.

How will Trump shape the 2026 elections? @laurennfrench.bsky.social breaks down the dramatic shift in voter sentiment since the 2024 election. “He’s underwater in every single state we’re contesting… Republicans need to separate themselves from Trump, and voters are judging those who are not.”

ICYMI: Senate Majority PAC and Majority Forward raised $147M, their best-ever Q2 haul. SMP has $126M cash on hand. And to date, the pair have raised more than in any previous cycle to this point. Democrats are competitive across the battleground, and we have the money to win.

Top Senate Democratic PAC Stockpiles Record Sum, as Money Chase Heats Up

Senate Majority PAC says it entered July with $126 million, a new midyear high, after raising $147 million with an affiliated nonprofit from April through June. But can it keep pace with the G.O.P.?

North Carolina Republicans had to pass a rule to formally ban sex offenders from holding positions of power within the party. Call it the Whatley Rule, as Michael Whatley knowingly appointed a child sex offender to high party office. www.newsobserver.com/news/politic...

NC GOP bans sex offenders from holding party office in new committee report

New eligibility requirements also ban convicted felons with violent crimes and child abusers from holding office.

Susan Collins is unsteady and struggling throughout this entire segment. Her inability to sit through even a softball interview gives a lot of insight into why she hasn't held a town hall in 25 years.

This unelectable nepo baby doesn't have what it takes to beat Jon Ossoff.

Unreal Number of Sex Scandal Republican Candidates Exposed

Race Preview: Today, we’re looking at Texas, where Republicans have nominated Ken Paxton in one of the most closely watched Senate races of 2026.

Across the board, Republicans are mass-deleting their prior posts about Paxton, be it his scandals or his affairs.

Republicans burned nearly $100 million trying to stop Ken Paxton. They lost big tonight. Even members of his own party call Paxton too corrupt and too damaged for Texas. Now he's the GOP standard-bearer for the state. Good luck with that. Let's go, Talarico.

Amid GOP infighting, Democrats lean on unity for an early edge

As Republicans emerge from a bruising and expensive primary season, Democrats try to build on something they suddenly have that the GOP doesn’t: unity and a head start.

Dan Sullivan is begging donors to help 'pay for gas' after he's voted eight times to continue the Iran War. Alaskans are paying north of $5 a gallon for gas, by the way. And some rural communities are paying $10 a gallon. www.rawstory.com/dan-sullivan...

A reminder of just how weak this Republican field is. Georgia voters have been subjected to months of these candidates, and not one of them could close the deal. Personally, I look forward to four more weeks of their in-fighting and three-ring circus, but I can’t imagine Georgia feels the same.

Mike Collins and Derek Dooley head to runoff in Georgia Senate GOP race

The brass tacks: We remain very bullish about Texas, and there is every likelihood SMP will make a mark there. Talarico can win - public and private polls have found that to be true. He's the better candidate, and not just because Cornyn and Paxton are both deeply flawed in their own ways.

Donald Trump just endorsed a man who was impeached by his own party, indicted for felony fraud, reported to the FBI by his own staff, ordered to pay $6.6 million to the whistleblowers he tried to destroy, and whose wife is divorcing him on biblical grounds.

The Texas endorsement is a real L for John Thune. The broader Cornyn world spent $100M to push him over the finish line, and SLF and the NRSC went scorched-earth on Paxton. Trump didn't care, even with Thune pleading for Cornyn. Thune didn't have the pull to make it happen.

Ashley Hinson has a long history of advocating for atrazine, a pesticide manufactured by Syngenta - a Chinese state-owned corporation and a Hinson donor. Studies have linked atrazine to cancer and birth defects. It's notable that Iowa has the second-highest cancer rate in the country.

The Trump administration has authorized the continued use of cancer-causing pesticide atrazine. Atrazine is banned in more than 60 countries.

Senate Majority PAC is committing $20 million to defend Georgia and $10 million to defend New Hampshire this fall. These initial TV reservations - backed by significant digital buys - will ensure Jon Ossoff and Chris Pappas are elected come November.

@majoritypac.bsky.social announcing two major initial TV investments - in Iowa and Michigan. We’re committing $20M in Michigan to send Mike Rogers back to Florida and $13.4 million to elect a Democrat in Iowa. Both will be backed by significant digital campaigns throughout the fall.

🚨 News for the Senate map: @majoritypac.bsky.social just committed $31.4 M in North Carolina to support Roy Cooper against Michael Whatley and $10.6 M in Alaska to back Mary Peltola against Dan Sullivan. North Carolina and Alaska are in play, and the polling continues to show it.

Rate Hike Mike is responsible for North Carolina's higher energy costs. Carolina Public Press reported that Whatley was a "player laying the groundwork...[for] Duke-friendly legislation to succeed." And his family owns between $163K and $445K in Duke stock. carolinapublicpress.org/75549/buying...

Buying power. Do Duke Energy's NC campaign donations fuel influence?

Campaign finance records show Duke Energy has been generous to NC lawmakers. Some policy decisions seem to show generosity in return.

Race Preview: Today, we’re looking at Ohio, where Sherrod Brown will be the Democratic nominee, and Republicans have nominated Jon Husted. Stay tuned for more race previews as the election cycle ramps up.

Senate Majority PAC is committing $40M in just television ads to defeat Jon Husted in Ohio. The seat's competitive because Husted is broadly unknown, and voters who do know him connect with the FirstEnergy bribery scandal, higher prices, and Jeffrey Epstein. Yikes. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/05/u...
