Nikki Haley Receives Huge Grassroots Endorsement

Haley Receives Huge Grassroots Endorsement

CHARLESTON, S.C. — Presidential candidate Nikki Haley received the endorsement of the largest conservative grassroots coalition in America, Americans for Prosperity (AFP) Action.

Read more about the endorsement in The New York Times.

“I’m honored to have the support of Americans for Prosperity Action, including its millions of grassroots members all across the country,” Nikki Haley said. “AFP Action’s members know that there is too much at stake in this election to sit on the sidelines. This is a choice between freedom and socialism, individual liberty and big government, fiscal responsibility and spiraling debt. We have a country to save, and I’m grateful to have AFP Action by our side.”

AFP Action supports candidates who share its belief in economic freedom and limited government. In the 2022 election cycle, AFP Action supported candidates with a record-breaking 2 million telephone calls, 5.5 million door knocks, and more than 69 million pieces of mail.

The organization has committed to playing an active role in the presidential primary, putting its grassroots army and cutting-edge data center to use to identify and turn out voters in Iowa, New Hampshire, and beyond.

Moms For America Action Endorses President Donald J. Trump

Moms For America Action Endorses President Donald J. Trump

Mar-a-Lago, FL — Today, Moms for America Action endorsed President Donald J. Trump as they released the following statement:

What we need most right now are leaders who will protect the Constitution, defend the family, and stand for truth and common sense even when it isn’t popular to do so. We need leaders who are not afraid to fight for what’s right, who will defend the Constitution and put America first. That is why Moms for America Action is endorsing Donald Trump for president.

Donald Trump has already proven himself the leader we need in these turbulent times. As president, Donald Trump was a steadfast champion for moms. He took action to keep our children safe in schools by rescinding Barack Obama’s co-ed bathroom policy – in his first week in office. He reduced taxes and cut regulations to ease the burden on hard-working American families. He instituted policies that allowed America to achieve true energy independence for the first time in half a century, slashing the prices of gas and electricity to the benefit of moms and their families.

Donald Trump was also the first sitting president ever to attend the March For Life, where he honored mothers as heroes and acknowledged the indispensable role we play in raising America’s children to become the next generation of patriots to lead this country.

That is why Moms for America Action enthusiastically endorses Donald Trump for President of the United States. He is a proven leader who has already demonstrated that he will stand up for freedom and fight for American values, even when he is viciously attacked for doing so.

Biden-Harris 2024 to Air Ads During NFL Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers Thanksgiving Game

Biden-Harris 2024 to Air Ads During NFL Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers Thanksgiving Game

“Never Left” and “Finally” Will Air in Detroit and Milwaukee During Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers Thanksgiving Game
Tomorrow, Biden-Harris 2024 is running ads in Detroit, Michigan and Milwaukee, Wisconsin highlighting President Biden’s commitment to lowering costs and strengthening America’s middle class around the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers’ Thanksgiving game.

“Never Left” and “Finally” will air around the Thanksgiving Day Lions vs. Packers matchup in the Detroit and Milwaukee markets. This announcement is the latest evidence of the campaign’s focus on reaching a general election audience, as the game is expected to reach 1.1 million adults over the age of 35 and 850,000 households in the Detroit market alone.

“Never Left” highlights President Biden’s middle class upbringing and his steadfast commitment to America’s middle class. This ad marks a creative focus of Team Biden-Harris’ historic, $25 million paid media campaign, with an explicit focus on the President’s cost-saving measures in his agenda.

“Finally” highlights how President Biden took on Big Pharma and won, and is lowering prescription drug costs by giving Medicare the power to negotiate prices, capping monthly out-of-pocket drug costs at $2,000, and capping insulin prices for seniors at $35/month. And he’s paying for this by finally making the biggest corporations pay their fair share in taxes.

“This Thanksgiving as Americans come together, we are proud to highlight how President Biden and Vice President Harris are focused on the issues that matter most to American families and delivering real tangible results that are lowering costs for everyday Americans,” said Julie Chavez Rodriguez, Biden-Harris 2024 campaign manager. “Next year’s election will determine whether we continue to fight for and strengthen American workers and the middle class or provide handouts to billionaires like MAGA Republicans have proposed time and time again. The American people have a choice next November and our campaign will remind them early and often just how stark that choice is.”

The ads are a part of Team Biden-Harris’ 16-week, $25 million advertising campaign that will reach key voters in battleground states.

Bob Vander Plaats Endorses Ron DeSantis for President

Bob Vander Plaats Endorses Ron DeSantis for President
FAMiLY Leader CEO and President has endorsed the last three Iowa Caucus winners in competitive GOP primaries

DES MOINES, Iowa – Ron DeSantis today secured the endorsement of faith leader and Iowa Caucus kingmaker, Bob Vander Plaats. As President and CEO of The FAMiLY Leader, Vander Plaats holds significant sway over Iowa’s evangelical community and beyond. He correctly picked the winner of the Iowa Caucus in 2008, 2012, and 2016.

“As I’ve made my way through 98 of Iowa’s 99 counties, Iowans have shared what a critical role Bob Vander Plaats plays in engaging Iowa’s faith community in the key battles that matter,” Ron DeSantis said. “His support tells Iowans they can trust me to fight and win for them. We’re thrilled to have Bob and Darla on Team DeSantis and are thankful for their friendship as we’ve gotten to know them throughout this campaign. The road to America’s revival starts in Iowa, and we will get the job done.”

“I'm thrilled to throw my personal endorsement and support behind Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida,” Vander Plaats said in an exclusive interview with Bret Baier on Fox New’s Special Report. He continued, “We need to find somebody who can win in 2024. And what we saw in 2022, the supposedly 'red wave' really only happened in Florida and in Iowa. Governor DeSantis took a reliable toss up state in Florida and made it complete red, won by 20 points, won in demographics that we haven't won in. But he's also done that by being a bold and courageous leader. So right away, it was kind of his endorsement to lose but as you know, Bret, in Iowa, they go to church with us, they're in our homes, they come to our offices, the leadership summit. But at last Friday's Thanksgiving Family Forum, he closed the sale on me. He was very clear about, we need a president who can serve two terms, not one term. We don't need a president that's going to be a lame duck on day one. You need a president that is going to surround themselves with the best and brightest people versus having a hard time attracting them again. And someone who's actually going to do what they say they're going to do. And I just think he's got the spine to do it and I think he's got the experience to win for us.”

Bob Vander Plaats’ support comes just after DeSantis secured the historic endorsement of Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds – the first time since 1996 that a sitting Iowa governor has endorsed in the Republican presidential primary. In August, influential Iowa radio host Steve Deace also endorsed DeSantis.

During this campaign cycle, Bob Vander Plaats:
• Took Ron and Casey DeSantis to his church in Des Moines
• Visited the Florida Governor's Mansion for lunch with Ron and Casey DeSantis
• Hosted a podcast with DeSantis
• Interviewed DeSantis at his Thanksgiving Family Forum
• Joined Ron and Casey DeSantis at the Pulse Life Advocates Christmas Gala

At the FAMiLY Leader Thanksgiving Family Forum, Ron DeSantis said, “What you see in Iowa, are people that believe in this country, have faith in God, understand the importance of family, and work hard to provide a better life for themselves and their family. And that's the core of what we need to reverse the decline of this country.”

Since announcing his candidacy for president, DeSantis has:
• Visited 98 of Iowa’s 99 counties with one more to go before the Iowa caucus;
• Earned endorsements from 41 Iowa state legislators (more than any candidate in the race);
• Earned support from over 100 Iowa faith leaders
• Earned endorsements from 26 Iowa Sheriffs
• Received the support of 120 county chairs with at least one in each of Iowa’s 99 counties;
• Built the support of 30,000 Iowans committed to caucus for him; and
• Made over 130 stops in the Hawkeye State.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott Endorses Donald Trump For President

Texas Governor Greg Abbott Endorses Donald Trump For President
Governor Greg Abbott endorsed Donald Trump for President on Sunday.

Gov. Abbott said: "Joe Biden is causing a potential terror threat in the United States of America. A president has one ultimate responsibility and that’s national security. Joe Biden has failed at national security. Well, I’m here to tell you that there is no way, no way that America can continue under the leadership of Joe Biden as our president.

We need a president who’s going to secure the border. We need a president who’s going to restore law and order in the United States of America. Not letting these criminals run ransack over the stores that you see images of almost nightly. We need a president who’s going to restore world peace as opposed to this outbreak of warfare under Joe Biden. We need Donald J. Trump back as our president of the United States of America."
