Unvarnished truth.

I spoke to a friend of mine yesterday, lifelong Republican. She is horrified by what's going on. She said the clips of ICE agents chasing migrants through the California fields brought her to tears. The lies about the No Kings protest made her angry as hell. She's lost life-long friends and experienced hurtful family arguments.

She can't wait for the 2026 midterms when she'll be voting a straight Democratic ticket.

We win back the country, one citizen at a time until our numbers are indisputable, our determination burns with the light of a million suns.

Ads like this do penetrate.

Unvarnished truth speaks to our humanity, our better selves. No screaming, no name calling.

No wonder the WH is freaking out.
