Here is yet another from Defend Our Courts. I swear I have texted "stop" when prompted a bunch of times, but I guess they don't care. This one doesn't even suggest that as an option.
𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴: Trump just intervened in the PA Supreme Court race — this could be it. This race determines control of PA's 19 electoral college votes and for months Dems had been losing. But now Obama, PA Governor Shapiro, and the DNC, have come in to turn out the vote and are spending millions. For the 1st time Dems are on the offensive. 𝗠𝗔𝗚𝗔 𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝗺𝗽 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝘁𝗼 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲𝗴 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘃𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘂𝗽. When Trump tells his base to vote they 𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯. This 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 give MAGA a massive turnout boost but we can blunt its impact. Last week, Defend our Courts spent our entire budget on a $500k TV and digital ad buy with money we didn’t have (we owe 500k to vendors). While we were able to recoup that over the weekend, Trump’s intervention means we once again need to spend our entire budget on GOTV, and quickly recoup it to remain solvent.

Please, before midnight rush a donation of $50, $25, or even $5, to help us pay for the response needed to mitigate Trump’s intervention in this race. defendour-courts.org/actblue?t=3yikR8 We will never forget those who stood beside Pennsylvania during our time of crisis.

Here's a frantic-sounding text from @repmarcykaptur.bsky.social.

I don't care how good she is, she is 79 years old and needs to retire.

I hate these texts so much.
Lucas — it's Marcy Kaptur. We've known a new map was coming for months, and it's here. 🚨The Ohio Redistricting Commission just agreed to a new Congressional map, and it makes our district even tougher than it is now. 🚨 Republicans can't beat us at the ballot box, so they've tried once again to gerrymander me out of Congress. But we've won against long odds before, and I'll never back down from a fight to protect my home. Can you rush a donation right now to help us fight back?

Here's one from Evan Hunt, calling my "Larry."
Larry, I'm Evan Hunt, and I need to tell you what’s happening in TX-03. Earlier this year, my congressman Keith Self was confronted by constituents upset about cuts to life-saving programs and jobs. Instead of listening, he canceled his next town hall and ran. That moment sealed my decision to run for his seat. I'm a 20-year Air Force veteran and combat aviator. After 9/11 hit during my senior year at Penn, I signed up one week later determined to serve my country. I deployed multiple times over Afghanistan and commanded nearly 200 personnel. My whole life has been guided by one principle: Service Before Self. But Keith Self? He's more interested in Trump's approval than real solutions. As a Freedom Caucus member, he votes to gut programs helping working families while backing tax breaks for the wealthy. That's not leadership. That's not service. That's not who we are. Our community deserves someone who will put Service Before Self. Can you chip in to help us defeat Keith Self and restore real leadership? eh4tx.com/service?t=DwxQgw Very respectfully, Evan Hunt Combat Aviator & TX-03 Candidate Text STOP to quit.

🚨SPECIAL ELECTION ALERT: 🚨 We have one shot to flip a seat by year’s end.  If we win, Republicans lose a House seat, and 2026 shifts completely.  Will you make a donation to help us seize the only Democratic pickup opportunity anywhere in the country?  behn4tn.org/1023c?t=jJZcfl I’m an organizer, state rep, and pissed-off social worker facing off against Trump’s hand-picked candidate in less than six weeks. And the stakes couldn’t be higher. Flipping TN-07 means rewriting the playbook for the Deep South.  It means we can get to work feeding kids, fixing roads, and funding hospitals.  And it means building political power for people, not corporations. The GOP will stop at nothing to prevent that reality from happening, which means they’ll be pouring millions of dollars into this race.  Can I count on your donation today to fight back and flip this seat? behn4tn.org/1023c?t=jJZcfl Let’s do this, Aftyn Behn Text STOP to quit

Lucas, I work night shifts in a hospital and campaign full-time during the day. (It’s Mitchell Berman—the ER nurse running to represent Wisconsin’s 1st in Congress.) I know that budgets are stretched thin right now, and it’s a big reason why I won’t ever try to scare you into donating. But I will be honest with you about the goals our campaign has and what they mean. The momentum of our campaign relies on grassroots contributors like you. If we want to beat Bryan Steil, flip this close seat, and end the BS in Washington, we need to meet our digital goals.

Here is another one from @thelaborforce.bsky.social. Pretty sure I texted "stop" back previously. Definitely doing it (again?) this time. Feeling antagonized.
Federal workers—who have been off the job or working without pay during the shutdown—will miss their second paycheck on Friday. The people working at Social Security offices, still making sure seniors' checks go out on time, aren't getting their own paychecks. But their bills didn't stop, the rent is still due, and their families need to eat. That's why the Labor Force is distributing grocery cards to federal workers during this shutdown. Your donation of $10 will pay for peanut butter and jelly; $50 will cover lunches for two kids for a week; $100 will provide a week of dinners; and $250 pays for a whole load of groceries. Can you pitch in? >> https://givelink.io/s/SibN0d Instead of negotiating an end to the shutdown, Donald Trump and his administration have threatened mass firings, even pledging to renege on a law he signed to guarantee backpay to workers after a shutdown. Trump sees a path to political victory through punishing the workers who keep Social Security working, make sure our water is safe to drink, and take care of our veterans. Federal employees are not bargaining chips. They are veterans, caregivers, law enforcement officers, and neighbors who serve their country and fellow Americans every day. They deserve stability and respect, not pink slips and political games. Can you chip in toward a load of groceries for a federal employee who didn't get a paycheck last week? >> https://givelink.io/s/dFAkcJ In solidarity, The Labor Force team Text STOP to Quit
