There were complaints that the social media news post took up too much of the DDC calendar announcements.? So, the social media posts will move here to the DDC's community activist e-mail list.? This list was created for community activism and calls for action.? The social media news posts are a call for people to participate and to like and repost the DDC posts. Every like and repost drives up the visibility of social media posts and aids in our getting our message out.? #RESIST We are committed to helping the following campaigns on social media and the names are followed by the amount of money the DDC has sent to these campaign.? Please support the DDC on Social Media to help these people with likes, comments and reposts.? We need your help on social media with likes and reposts.? Contact us if you are posting, so we can help make you more visible in your support. For The House -- Congress: McGuire CD 1, $3,000 Bera CD 3, $2000 Mike Thompson CD 1, $1000 -- DDC integrated with campaign on social media Pan CD 6, $2,000 Mai Vang CD 7 $1000 Adam Gray CD 13, $1000 -- DDC integrated with campaign on social media Randy Villegas CD 22, $2,000 -- DDC integrated with campaign on social media Tran CD 45, $2,000 Dave Min CD 47, $1000 -- DDC integrated with campaign on social media von Wilpert CD 48? $2,000 For US Senate -- Congress Mary Peltola, $3,000 For Governor Xavier Becerra $2000 For Yolo County Supervisor Mayra Vegas $1000? -- DDC integrated with campaign on social media For those looking for the club Twitter (now X) account: https://x.com/DavisDemocratic? We now are at 6,743 Followers and only 57 followers away from our January 2024 number of 5800 followers.? The BIG difference is that we are actively interfacing with the 10 campaigning congress people on X and informing them of the $22,000 that the DDC has donated to their campaigns plus the Governor's race and the Yolo County Supervisor Race.? We are too small for them to ban us and we continue to post and magnify anti-Trump posts.? They, MAGA, are attacking Congressmen Min and Thompson, but we have taken up their cause and surprisingly, the MAGA accounts are ceasing their attacking posts as we fight back with words and initiating blocking MAGA blue check account drives.? They hate being blocked and subsequently we are laughing at them.? We will continue to support Min, Thompson and all of the congressman the political ad hoc committee recognized for endorsement.? We will flip the House and Senate Blue.? We continue to #RESIST? ?Again, I get most of our hardest hitting material on X to post on Bluesky. We currently have 38,129 Bluesky followers.? Even though we have increased this number since the last report, we lost another 40 followers as Bluesky continues purging bot accounts that are scamming money for candidates and infecting computers with fake blue check badges.? ?We are also working to make sure Homeland Security and ICE are held accountable for the people they have assaulted and killed.? This is important as ICE has killed yet another person in what they are saying to protect public safety in Maine.? Remember the name, Joan Sebasti?n Dur?n Guerrero. More and more evidence is coming out that he was killed by a deranged sociopath recruited by ICE.? If you want to see a very emotional video on this latest ICE murder by Rachael Maddow, I have posted it on my Youtube page at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGqNVJp7twA.? We continue to call out Trump's corruption selling pardons and influence through his meme coin -- 2 billion by the Saudis this last month of July alone in income to Trump.? This must be made illegal for any politician to be able to do this.? The Saudis also have promised to spend $1 Trillion for technology and support for their Uranium enrichment program from US companies, corporations and firms.? Trump made $2.2 billion that he reported as income in 2025.? We are being looted and Trump continues to earn BILLIONS.?
