Jon Tester is under attack






VoteVets


Jon Tester is under attack. He helped stop the nomination of Ronny Jackson to head the VA, and he’s a target because of it.

A target of the president’s rage on Twitter and at rallies. A target of deep-pocketed outside spending. And a top target of Republicans in his re-election campaign.

VoteVets has his back because as the Democratic leader of the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee, he’s had ours. We’re not gonna let him face down millions in attack ads without telling Montanans about the great work he’s done.
Help us help Jon Tester:



Republicans are going to fight tooth and nail to keep the Senate, but we’ll be damned if they are going to let Senator Tester’s leadership in the fight to stop Ronny Jackson take him down.

Chip in $10 today. Stand with Jon Tester.

Thank you so much,
The team at VoteVets

The Big Mac And The Crocodile

Dear Friend, 2017 will be remembered as the year that the so-called ‘peace process’, at least in its American formulation, has ended. And with its demise, a political framework that has served as the foundation for US foreign policy in the Middle East has also collapsed. The Palestinian leadership and its Arab and international allies will now embark on a new year with the difficult task of drumming up a whole new political formula that does not include the United States. Cyril Ramaphosa, the next President of South Africa, was the man behind the entry of international fast food behemoth McDonalds into the country, earning him the sobriquet “The Big Mac”. Zimbabwe’s new President Mnangagwa bears the nickname “The Crocodile” from his days as head of Robert Mugabe’s secret police for, like his namesake, coming out of nowhere to suddenly snatch his victims, never to be seen again Also more stories from around the world.  If you don't mind, and if you think the conten...
