From my email:
America just witnessed a sitting U.S. Governor overturn the results of a free and fair election.
South Dakota's governor and legislature brazenly repealed the Anti-Corruption Act voters passed just 3 months ago. It's unconscionable. South Dakotans are outraged. So is America.
The fight in South Dakota isn't over.
We're going to fight tooth and nail for the rest of this legislative session to hold politicians accountable and fight to get every provision of the Anti-Corruption Act put back in place, because that is what South Dakotans deserve.
Thanks to your support, we were able to wage an incredibly tough campaign:
South Dakota politicians weren't expecting the hundreds of phone calls, thousands of emails, scrutiny from national media, or angry protesters filling the Capitol. Our campaign was effective. It rattled them so much, they're scrambling to appease angry voters. They just introduced ten new "replacement" bills – but most are riddled with lobbyist-friendly loopholes, and there's absolutely no guarantee politicians will even bring them to a vote.
It's not good enough.
They want us to go away. That's not happening. We're gearing up for the political fight of our lives during the next 6 weeks, as we work together to restore every single provision of the Anti-Corruption Act. We proved that comprehensive anti-corruption reform is incredibly popular among conservatives, independents and progressives. We also learned how far establishment politicians are willing to go to protect the corrupt status quo.
Don't forget, when the people pass laws that upend business as usual, the establishment will always fight back. But they can't stop a movement. We're in this fight for the long haul – state by state, city by city, until we have a government that truly represents the people.
This is only the beginning of our national fight. We're already gearing up for a massive push across the country in 2018 and beyond. Together, with your help, we're building a movement so powerful that no political establishment can stand in our way.
Thank you for being a part of that movement.
Your broad brush has been improperly maintained and cleaned and now it reeks.
Give the partisan, vile stereotypes a rest man!
What Republicans actually do is not a "stereotype." It's what they do. And what they do, is vile; as this obviously-vile action more than proves. It's time now to RAMP UP the opposition to them to as high a fever pitch as possible.
Mr. X, I am opposed to what Republicans do. Not because they are "Republicans." But because of what they always DO. These are not your grandfather's Republicans. It is what today's Republicans do. Learn it, get used to it.
My Grandfather Meece was a staunch Republican from Indiana. He would be rolling in his grave too.
And if you think Republicans don't control South Dakota's government, I've got some land on the Moon to sell you. And after that, some land on Titan.
And DINOs (Democrats in Name Only) beware too; the people are coming fer ya.
