Former Navy Seal and CIA officer, Republican Sam Faddis, is running an unprecedented campaign for Senator in Maryland Congressional District 5 which covers parts of Prince George's County, Charles County, St. Mary's County, Calvert County, and Anne Arundel County (how's that for gerrymandering).

>>> He is supposedly using "guerrilla strategies and unconventional methods" to unify voter demographics that past Republicans have not successfully engaged.

Sam Faddis for U.S. Senate has hired the political "A-Team" to run his 2018 campaign. Maryland has been represented and defined by a majority of Democratic leadership, Sam intends to c...

DNC Chair Tom Perez just purged high-ranking progressives from key party positions. We're not sitting on the sidelines.

With EVERY contribution to JD, EVERY candidate we launch, and EVERY volunteer hour, we will be sending an unmistakable message: "THIS IS OUR TIME!".

The DNC just doesn’t get it. Even after losing more than 1,000 nationwide and Trump winning the White House the DNC is doubling down on failed strategies.

More than 100 people came to Busboys & Poets in Hyattsville last Thursday to support Ben Jealous' campaign for Maryland Governor.

Senator Corey Booker of New Jersey (D) was also supposed to attend following his recent endorsement of Jealous. However, he was unable to attend due to ongoing Senate votes.

Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont (I) also endorsed Jealous back in July.

More than 100 people came to Busboys & Poets in Hyattsville on Thursday to support Jealous’ campaign, according to event organizers.

If things are really going to change for the better for the people of this country, some things in our government are going to need to change.

"The U.S. Senate DOES NOT look like our country. Of the 100 Senators, ONLY ONE [Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii] -- is a woman of color.
93 Senators are white [93% WHITE], and 80 are male [80% MALE]. This is does not represent our values or reflect our country. If we are going to build an effective political revolution, that must change.

We can do something about it right now. DFA [Democracy For America] is supporting THREE fantastic PROGRESSIVE leaders, who are WOMEN OF COLOR, for the U.S. Senate: Catherine Cortez Masto in Nevada, Tammy Duckworth in Illinois, and Kamala Harris in California. They will take on Wall Street and fight for working people and -- with your help -- they can win in NOVEMBER."
