  • From the Desk of Al Franken

Well this is disturbing:

In case you missed it, last week Steve Bannon — yes, that Steve Bannon — sat down with The Economist and said some deeply disturbing things, because ya know, he’s Steve Bannon.

Well, technically Trump will be president in 2028 (barring an ankle-clot) — but you all know what Bannon meant. Disturbing how confident he sounds about something that is a direct violation of the 22nd Amendment (thank you FDR!). 

Bannon went on to say that Trump is acting as a vehicle of “divine providence.” Really? He’s talking about Donald Trump. 

So, this is their goal. This is their endgame. They’re saying it out loud. They’re selling Trump 2028 merch: “Make America Great Again, Again”. Thank God there’s a Supreme Court we can trust! 

In just 8 days, we have our first major elections since Trump returned to the White House — our first chance to send a clear, unmistakable message that the American people are not big fans of autocracy.

Let’s not leave a single thing to chance. Donate to Midwest Values PAC today so we can make sure the GOP and the MAGA machine get the message loud and clear: democracy fights back.

Thanks,

Al

P.S. This morning on Air Force One, a reporter asked Trump about a third term and he said, “I would love to do it.”

Somehow, it’s been 20 years since I started Midwest Values PAC to help Democrats win elections — from progressive organizations to state legislatures to Congress to the White House — who share the values I grew up with in St. Louis Park, Minnesota.

Since 2006, Midwest Values PAC has invested more than $4 million in 341 candidates and organizations — and counting. 

Of course, none of this happens without you (or supporters like you) who care enough to pitch in.

As we mark our 20th anniversary, the work is more urgent than ever. This year, we have a big job: flip the House, take the Senate, and win up and down the ballot at the state and local level.

To mark our 20th year, we’ve set an ambitious goal: 26,000 contributions by Election Day 2026.

Thanks for being part of this fight, and for sticking with us for 20 years (or for just joining — welcome!).

P.S. Over the years, okay, decades, we’ve helped Democrats win tough races all across the country by investing early, intelligently, and strategically. That’s how you flip seats. That’s how you protect democracy. And that’s how you stop the worst impulses of a president who never should have been president in the first place.
