Don't Do It: I proposed a wealth tax. Now billionaires are funding a primary challenge against me.

I proposed a wealth tax. Now billionaires are funding a primary challenge against me.

Jason,

A handful of tech billionaires have decided they've had enough of me. After I proposed a modest wealth tax on the ultra-rich, they went looking for someone to run against me.

Now they've found him.

Before I explain, will you chip in $10 or whatever you can to help me fight back?

A billionaire-backed super PAC just recruited Ethan Agarwal to jump into this race, and they're preparing to make him one of the "most lavishly funded primary challengers in the country of the 2026 cycle."

Let's be clear about what this really is: an attempt to intimidate me, silence me, and punish anyone who dares to call for higher taxes on billionaires or take on the Epstein class.

I'm under attack because I don't take PAC money. I don't take lobbyist money. I don't take corporate checks—not now, not ever. And that terrifies the establishment because it means I can't be bought.

If you believe candidates recruited by billionaires and doing their bidding should be decisively defeated, I need your help.

Thank you for standing with me.

Onward,
